Long Putter Options

[Redman]

My putting has gotten so bad that I'm going to give the long putter a shot.  I have a terrible back so being able to practice with a normal length putter is a no-go.  I just can't go more than about 10-15 minutes before it starts giving me problems.  I'm actually having a hard time finding many options for the long putter, however.  So, please drop in here any brands and models that you're aware of.  Thanks.

New ones? SeeMore makes one ... there are some off brands here and there. For experimenting, try the Ping B90 on the Bay ...

Better options from some of the "smaller" brands out there.

Thanks, Tater.  I'm open to new or used.

Odyssey might be the only major OEM that makes long putters.  Unless I missed something.

I have one of these.  I like everything about it except the glossy top surface.   One of these days I will fix that.  Despite the name, you can also use it in broomstick fashion.  I do.

I started about 4 months ago rolling long putters. A Cameron Mid-Sur first, then I found a Cleveland HB #8. It’s a fb 2x wide blade. I epoxied in an extension (old wedge shaft) to 46”. Bent it to 77* and added lead tape till it felt right. 
 

I think I’ve got $100 in it and it putts great. I’ve since added a DF2.1 44”broomstick to the herd. 

My back feels so much better too.

I have the same problem. I want so badly to use a standard putter but always resort back to broomstick putters due to my back. I've pretty much tried them all with the exception of the Seemore one. LAB is a great option but super expensive and I never liked the feeling of the DF or Mezz. My favorite has been the Bobby Grace by far (great for broom and side saddle) but I just picked up a LongBow Putter and it's really gaining ground.

Any more info on the longbow putter?  I like the look of the LP-1, but can’t find much info on them…

I did see that…and it has me very interested.  I’m looking for feedback/reviews/comparisons from anyone that has tried them…

They are new so might be hard to get unbiased reviews. Obviously most social media pages they'll post messages or text with how good the putters are but that's every custom.

Just bought an EVNROLL ER2V Midlock putter 40”. I really like how the grip juts out so you don’t feel like you have to exaggerate the forward lean. I ordered this one and a TaylorMade blade Armlock putter and the EVNROLL won out. Will be returning the TaylorMade. Played with it for the first time today and definitely was struggling to get used to it. (5) three putts for overall 36 putts in the round. Biggest issue I had is when I was leaning shaft over I seemed to be pressing the putter into the ground so when I began my backstroke the club was hanging up. Also, was struggling with alignment. Will probably use line on ball for a while until I get used to it, although I normally don’t like that.
