HAHA!! That's ridiculous.

 

 

My wife is from Pittsburgh and I dug something similar out of her Dad's shed. I give you THE PICKLE PUTTER!

I had one of those. It worked for about 2 rounds...

The lines are actually cut into the putterhead an inch deep. Found this in my dads bag.

Orizaba wins in driver category as well. In the 80s they made a thing called the Power Pod. Circular red plastic monstrosity that was unhittable.

Most amazing putter I've ever seen bro! I'd use it.

The muni I grew up playing had about 10 senior's with the power pod, cult like following by senile morons

 

Johnny Miller used the bassakwerd for a little while IIRC

My twin used to play with the giant Ping Doc putter, 13" across or something ?, every time it came out we made beeping "satellite" noises

 

He used to also carry this hideous YES model with a bright yellow something on the back and we'd all shout "NO" when he rolled the ball

Interestingly enough, Utley talks about have a kerf cut placed on the bottom of his putters to help amplify the noise on a strike.

That could do with a polish, ahem.

We need to revive this thread.

 

Second on the Mizuno 8806. But I have to admit it works and you can brand a calf with it too.

 

 

This is actually my gamer, more for nostalgic value than anything. It was my first piece of name brand equipment. My dad found it at a pawn shop when I was taking up golf in junior high in the early 90s. Dad was not a golfer, but recognized Mizuno was high quality, so he picked it up for $10-15, which was probably a good deal at the time. I've used a couple other putters since, but went back to it when dad got sick a couple years ago. I really like a couple different putters I've tested recently, but feel like I'm cheating on the ugly ole girl and don't feel like I could leave her...lol

This is made so much worse by all the pubes stuck in the carpet.

different tip color and throbbing veins seals it

Thanks for bumping this thread. It's a good one. I thought I'd seen it all until someone whipped out the p**** putter. Unreal...

[Chase07470]

I game this guy in silver and black. Unanimously, everyone I play with hates the way it looks. But can't find anything I make more putts with so it stays in the bag.

I was thinking it's about time for a sandblasting and new paint scheme. I'd go with an oil can finish, but I'm afraid I'd feel way too uncomfortable having to oil it regularly :stop:

"STOP LAYING YOUR PUTTER DOWN ON A GOLF COURSE.

A GOLF COURSE IS COVERED WITH-

PESTICIDES

URINE, FAECES, SNOT, SPIT

A LOT OF STUFF THAT CAN GET YOU SICK."

 

Marketing gold from their site. How am I alive when my other 13 clubs don't offer this protection?

[justwellsy]

From the people that brought you the Hammer X driver..... BOOOOOM!!!!

Goes perfect with the drawn butter golf ball.... and the perfect club to use when you're in a pinch!

 

[lrgdawg]

Here is a Beeline I had sitting in the garage - not much room for operator error!

Is that the high-MOI model?

somebody beat me to it, the iconic original Ray Cook M-1 mallet... It's original you can tell because of the hosel/neck is cast as well... later offerings, the M1-X decided against it:

I just went on ebay and searched "unusual putters" and found an archive of butt ugly putters. Check it out.

[Joe85]

A number of the putters listed here I wouldn't hesitate to use in a heartbeat.

 

The Nickent, that Yes! putter above, a couple others.

 

 

 

 

I remember back when the White Hot 2-Ball came out I was embarrassed to be seen with it in my hands.

 

 

Man how times change in golf years...

I was wondering why this thread was getting attention as of late. Turns out it was featured on the home page of GolfWRX!

The ugliest straight up is the bassackwards. The Nubbins is hands down the worst putter i've ever looked at and tried for Sh$%s n giggles. No feel whatsoever on it, too light also, i would never be able to tell how far the strike would make it go on a lag putt---and just ugly putter with tan rubber face insert color scheme--Bleccchh! I played with 5 guys that had Nubbins putters and all of them except one were horrifically bad putters. The guy that was an awesome putter, i had to ask why he liked it---the feel is awful as if rubber bands were smelted on the face to dampen and take away all feedback. He just said " Feels good to me." Different strokes for different folks, i guess.
