I’ve been wanting to give the 5 or 5.5 a try…who knew it was so polarizing!

After this thread and watching the coverage this week, I have to agree with those that think it is his green reading that is the true issue. I think he is hitting his line, but the putts just break more or less than he thought. The telling putt was one on Thursday when the camera was directly behind his putt and he had is line on the ball showing an inside left edge intended line and the putt broke at least a cup and a half form 8-10 feet. That is a HUGE mis-read from that distance.

yeah. If I was him I’d pick a caddy that’s good at green reading and over-do it like Wyndham Clark. Doesn’t look pretty but it’ll work for him.

Or his Scotty from 2016 when it seemed like he was making everything in the Fed Ex cup and Ryder Cup

Also a fastback to be fair lol

Try one!  It’s just a putter

Rory with back to back missed 4 footers.  His stroked gained putting not looking good with the 5.5 so far 

So it might not be the putter??? 😉

Apparently, the putter length was the issue Thursday/Friday (per this Golf mag article ). 😂

Well, he was 16th in strokes gained putting last year.  This tournament he’s losing strokes.  Still, new putter and things can change.  All good

Heard the story on TV coverage, cool stuff that you don't hear about much.

During the telecast they said it was cut down 1/2”. Turns out It was actually 3/16”! Dang TV sensationalizes everything! 😜

Definitely true.  Interesting to me that toe hang mallets with the exact same specs can play so differently.  Only guy on tour using 5.5 with strokes gained putting is Max I believe.  The feel off the face is very good, but I sold it after too many bad rounds.  Scheffler tried the 5.5 briefly with disastrous results, Spieth too.  Also JT is a below average putter using this flat stick. 

7.5 is better for me. Had the 5.5 it was meh??!!

I bought two of them.  I also bought the 5, 11 and 11.5, all new.  Wanted to make one work.  Didn’t work for me but that doesn’t mean they won’t work for you.  They all had good feel, just didn’t make enough putts.

The best Rory ever putted was with his OG Scotty Cameron Newport back when he was still with Titleist

This is why I currently own 14 putters ... I keep buying, I just don't make enough putts.

The next one will be the last one though ... I can stop anytime I want.

Curious to see what he has in the bag this week.....

[So_Cal]

He would have won going away last week with the Spider in the bag.  Too many whiffed 3 footers

[Trippels]

He'll show up at the Masters with a L.A.B broomstick

[Catrick_Pantlay]

Just checked Getty looks like he is still using the phantom. time to fade him on the bets

[BagofToast]

I'm sure everyone is watching already lol but the Cameron is in the bag
