I have a non-insert model Zing 2. Originally loved the head shape and look, and used more of an arc stroke. The store I bought it from didn't do putter fitting... well, actually they did, but the couple of times I stopped by, the one guy that was trained to do it was never in. Stupidly, I just ordered a 33" cut down to 31." Head is much lighter than I prefer, but I sort of "made it work" with a slower tempo stroke. Not the fault of the putter. Putts struck on the sweet spot feel wonderful. Neither overly soft nor overly firm, but I suspect as this review is for the insert model, the feeling with that insert will be much softer. If I wasn't looking to switch to a back-through stroke for consistency, and a putter that's more compatible with such a stroke, I'd put some effort into having some weight added, and adjusting the too-flat lie angle. Having said that, this putter doesn't owe me much. :lol:

I really like this putter. The insert is very responsive as you can tell by sound and feel if you hit it on the sweet spot. I used to play with an old Zing putter, and the added weight has definitely added some consistency.
