Finau's Putter at Mayakoba

[brickhouze]

Any one get better shots? What is that?? Still looks like the Piretti grip.

I dont know what it is but I can say I hate it.

Wow, that's pretty crazy looking. It looks like the Piretti Matera he was using, but with the bend in the center of the putter. Weird.

I can’t believe he’s sticking with that Piretti.  They’re among the worst feeling, supposedly upscale, putters I have ever tried.  Maybe one reason why he hasn’t managed a win yet despite obvious talent.

I have to disagree with you on the Piretti take, but this particular putter clearly isn’t working for him and now he’s made it FUGLY 😂

[rwhitlock]

At least he's trying to improve... lol..  From my armchair position, I think he needs to enlist the help of some putting specialists (Stockton, Faxon, Utley..).  With his talent, if he could only putt better, he'd start racking up some wins...

I have been playing a Piretti Matera for the last 9 months and I absolutely love it.  I like very soft putters and it feels awesome - super soft.  A little softer than my Bettinardi's and much softer than my Scotty Cameron.   I have the heavier weights in mine so maybe that helps it to feel so soft.

I believe the reason for the putters feeling so soft is the deep milling that Piretti uses on their putters. I have a few and the GOAT with no milling doesn't feel as "soft" as my GSS Capri or others with the deep milling.

Finau won the 2016 Puerto Rico Open on the PGA Tour.

Looks like a tribute to when he rolled his ankle at Augusta.

Similar to a transistor radio I had back in the 70s.

The anti toe hang putter.

[Milfordlefty]

Well, you have all done it now. With all the hate on the putter, he is going to win this week.

[youngwaldo]

Put that putter next to the Cleveland VAS irons.  Both so FUGLY.

He won't.

I came up with a great concept for a putter last night.

 

Last Night...

[Abh159]

I always felt like the claw grip was sort of a last resort for people. Pair it with that monstrosity of a putter and my faith is Finau is dropping at an alarming rate. 

[Davidv]

Now he has a good reason for his poor putting.

[Boognish]

I tested the new Odyssey toe up putter recently and was really impressed.  It was actually the best performing putter I tried, but I just couldn't get over the look.  Schwartzel has been rolling a custom PXG in this hosel style.

I dont think it is that bad. If it help him hole a few more putts so be it.. 

[getitdaily]

That putter looks like his ankle after the par 3 contest a few years ago...

I love the look of the Matera. But, this Frankenstein version is barf worthy.

Wasn't that your frat's branding iron symbol? Pretty cool you found a replica to putt with.
