Look at this setup I've got (pictures below.)
From right to left:
Odyssey Tri-Ball - belongs my dink "tenant" who frequently practices one handed, cross handed (with right or left hand pencil grip) or an all wrist stroke. Last time out he topped two putts in eleven holes. Needs a 4ball putter, I guess.
2ball SRT (standard grip) - sort of my wife's putter. She arbitrarily switches between this and the other 2bSRT.
Odyssey O-Works Marxman - fancy black shaft and SS pistol grip, w/ 50g counterweight in the grip. Really cool looking, bought on a whim. I don't like the harder face vs the various 2balls, and I don't putt better with it.
Odyssey 2ball SRT w/ Winn jumbo - my gamer for the last MANY years. Love the feel, but never felt super confident with it - always seemed to struggle to get the ball on my intended line consistently.
Odyssey Backstryke 2ball (33") w/ Winn Jumbo - I worked at DSG when these came out, and remembered thinking I couldn't miss with them. "Stroke balanced" vs face balanced or toe heavy. Shockingly good for me - making an extremely high percentage of putts on the practice mat.
Odyssey Backstryke 2ball (35") w/ SS 5.0 - Best results I've ever had. I haven't taken the 33" to the course yet, but last time out with this 35" (which was also my first time out with it) was the best I've ever putted. It's longer than any putter I've used at 35", and the grip is humungous and seems too slippery to use in summer, but good grief. Really feels automatic in my hands on the mat and the course.
The mat is an 8' BirdieBall, and I've got the "tiny hole" insert that I hit 6 footers at. When I started hitting at the little hole it seemed very difficult, but now I mindlessly make 17-19 out of 20, especially with the Backstryke models. Speed is critical, as the ball wants to bounce/jump out of that hole. Most misses are through the hole rather than R/L.
And there's another 33" Backstryke on the way for experimentation with grips. Good grief.
