National Custom putter…I will only say it was $500 more than my MackMade.

And your putter is nothing more than a tricked-out Anser.  That's like buying a Honda Accord and dumping thousands of dollars on custom wheels.  Sure, it might look cooler, but it's still a Honda Accord.

There's no need to insult people and get cranky because your opinion on the importance of certain clubs differ. Putters much like drivers, when struck in the center, perform very very similar regardless of technology. 

 

You feel good about your expensive driver that is identical to a million others made just like it, and I will feel good about my putter that is one of a kind and made by a guys hands.

I didn't have to pay quite the full retail price but it'd be my driver - Stealth + with Tour AD DI-7X. Hefty $850 retail price tag

I wasn't cranky and I'm sorry if my (appropriate) analogy struck a cord.  The tech in new drivers isn't intended to maximize performance on perfect strikes.

 

And my driver is no longer "expensive",  I'm still gaming a 2016 M1.  Spend your money how you see fit; you're the one that worked for it.  Just make sure you get the custom spoiler for your Accord so that it's also one-of-a-kind 😝

Probably the most expensive club in my stash is probably my recreation of a TaylorMade R1 Black Super TP Driver with a real deal OBAN Kiyoshi White shaft.  I probably paid $100 CDN to piece meal it together from different sources.

I spent $250 on my driver in signature, plus a few bucks for a Jumbomax grip. 

[Ghostwedge]

I must be slummin....😎  its a tie between my Ping  G400 driver and my Scotty Cameron Newport 2 both $350-400.

[Tiptx1122]

Years ago I paid close to a grand for a Ryoma D1 Type V driver from Japan, thing was a beast too, Spent $600 for some nice Byron Morgan Putters and Bettinardi  Armageddon B56 putter. My Peiretti and Lajosi were not cheap either. MY driver would have to be what's the most expensive club in my bag now as the Callaway Rouge ST MAX LS with my Tensei 1K Pro White shaft as that is my fairway finder/bomber

[CUBuffaloes]

TSi2 driver i bought new plus a used Autoflex shaft = $1,000

Toulon Columbus putter head plus LAGOLF shaft = $600

2022 Scotty Cameron X 7.  Stock, full retail @ $430, off the shelf.

 

Clearly nothing special or crazy expensive, but I have always bought used or previous years' models at a steep discount. Always wanted a Scotty with a milled stainless face, but never crazy about the head shape selection until this one. Used Scotty's, especially new models, don't sell for much less than retail so not worth searching for a bargain in this case. No regrets.

I love a good pissing match, getting in before the Circle T's guys drop in. 

 

This was a birthday/Christmas gift to myself so didn't mind the price especially for the end result. My Cody James Patriot putter, which was about $1250, not including a few other things like grip, shipping, duty/taxes and I may toss in an upgraded graphite shaft at some point. 

 

Second most expensive was my recent driver purchase, Cobra LTDxLS with Mitsubish C6 Onyx at $775 but I hopefully don't need to change drivers for at least 4 years.

This.
If I am successful at Pinehurst in a few weeks I'll go talk to John about another one.

[Ger21]

Prior to last year, the most expensive club I ever bought was my Oil Can Newport in 1998, for $275.

Now it's my Sub70 driver, that was $350.

[IcemanYVR]

I would have to say my putter. It’s Certainly worth considerably more now than what I paid for it when new. 
 

 

[erikro]

L.A.B putter with stability shaft. Worth it for how my putting has improved. 

[roundersmitty]

My Toulon Las Vegas H7 putter for $300 used.  I figure I use a putter more than any other club….might as well invest accordingly

Drive for show and all that 🙂

[iknowbagu]

Feel like the poor kid in school again ... mine just a boring Rad Speed with Ventus. 

[JDennis]

Putter by a little over the driver

 

Scotty SS square back 2 with BGT stability shaft and super stroke tour corded grip. 

[jh19]

Will always be a putter. I try to use it less than 30 times per round, the driver is used no more than 14, but probably around 8.

I've never met someone whose putting improved by spending $1,200 for one.  All specs being equal, there's absolutely nothing in a $3,000 GSS Circle T that makes it roll the ball any better than an old Ping Anser.

Same. I got the DF 2.1 broomstick. The thing is stupid good once you figure out a putting stroke in the lie angle.

[MattM97]

Me seeing mostly putters being the most expensive in everyone's bag.

 

 

 

[Vater]

Among very modestly priced sticks, my putter. But that's ok because when I divide it by the 54 times I use it every round, it's the cheapest club I have in terms of use per dollar................

[pup142]

XXIO Prime 9 Driver. Bought it on EBay in great condition a few years ago for $225.00. Well worth it.

[SnapHooker_307]

100% my putter. I usually just buy a driver that is a year old if I do get a newer one. Hybrid/3 wood the same thing.

[scott406]

Putter (PXG)

Still bagging a Cobra FlyZ Driver I got for $150 on Ebay several years ago

 

 

 

[lefthack]

My PXG 0211 driver was $180 +$30 shipping, I about fell over but I hit it so well I wasn't going to say no. I did get a military discount, so that helped.
