When it comes to putters, there is no shortage for designs. If you can imagine a design in your mind, somebody has probably made something pretty close to it. There is a perfect looking putter head for everybody.

But most golfers stop at that. They buy these off the rack putters with expensive names on them. They have a choice of one length and one grip.

I know from personal experience that a simple change in the shaft length can make all the difference in the world. So next time you want to get a new putter, just shorten one of your old ones by cutting a couple of inches off the shaft and putting a new grip on it.

If you think about it, a new putter only works because it feels different from the one you have lost confidence in. Technology has done wonders for distance, but when you get close to the hole its a different game, literally.

When you are having trouble putting and have lost confidence, it seems as if you will never make another putt. Any change you make is like a first step towards restoring confidence.

If it happens to you, don't limit yourself to getting a new putter. You should try different shaft lengths as well. It is a lot easier to cut two inches off an already installed shaft than it is to add the two inches.

A new putter grip cost about $4. Add a little masking tape you probably already have along with any solvent and you have totally changed the characteristics of your old putter without changing the visual appeal that lead you to buy it in the first place.

If you don't like what you have, you can always go out a buy that new putter. Just remember, it is still you doing the putting.

You and Cool5 seem to have this confused with a Golf forum. This is a Roller Coaster and Roller Coaster Simulation forum . . . at least this is in the off topic section . . .

^ yeah, I suppose it comes down to whether you prefer just hideous bludgeoning, or a single pinpoint deadly blow. Either way is cool [^]

So what if a driver is bigger, it also has a lighter head. Use something that will hurt. Use a 2 iron, a putter, something along those lines.

This topic baffles me. You come to "CoasterCrazy.com" and instantly talk about golf?! Do you even know anything about roller coasters?
