Pete has more putters than I have friends by about 50 putters. What a legend
My so called friends still laugh, but the LAB ain’t leaving my bag 😂
I can totally understand, I've got an old Nike Oz 6. So ugly and so good. It has paid for itself 10x over.
And should’ve never left Pete’s bag ! 👍
which lab do you have?
Right on @edblair… o don’t care what anyone says about my Mezz Max Broomstick.
I finally caved & bought an armlock LAB DF 2.1 this past year and it isn’t leaving my bag either. It’s incredible.
These videos are great Pete enjoyed this as last years 😊👍 Great insights and concise.
Would have loved to see you roll the LAB DF3!
I can't believe you called the Wilson 8802 the BB02 😂
dyslexic moment
Very informative video. Thanks Pete
This is a FANTASTIC video. For the better part of 3 months I've been trying to understand all of the intricacies of putting and putters. This is a great breakdown of the technology in putters, which putters might fit your technique better and what to prioritise in your putter choice. Thanks Peter! Top notch!
I still use an Odyssey SRT Tri Ball putter and have a Golf Pride SNSR grip. Love it. Never see anyone else with it. It’s truly unique and feels so balanced for me.
Great video, Peter & Co! I struggled with pace control with every mallet design I tried. The day I tried an Anser style putter is the day I realized you don't have to be a plus handicap player to use a blade. My Taylormade TP Hydrablast Soto feels great, looks really nice, and my pace control with it is amazing! Try any putter that you think you might like, and you may surprise yourself as I did!
How did BB02 slip through the edit?
Greats videos Peter! Love the longer format . And I hope your new found love for running !!!! Haha
Great choice of cap Pete!! And a cheeky cameo from the big man Craigy!!👌🏼 Quality vid too. 👏🏼
Filmed at my very own home track! Of all the courses in Phoenix you could have went to. Aguila is a local favorite. Have spent many hours on that putting green!
I just switched to Tour Lined Two Ball and it has made a big difference with alignment.
I just picked up the Odyssey Ai-one double wide in the DB and its perfect for me. 20 degree toe hang the perfect set up for my stroke
Nice continuity of the clothing between the segments 😉
I love my Bettinardi Queen B #6 and it will never leave my bag! I love the blade look but it's wider which really just suits my eye.
Man I wanted one of those so bad, but I couldn’t justify the price tag. Ended up with a ping heppler anser 5 (200aud 2nd hand) and love it. Maybe one day I can get the bettinardi but for now the ping will do!
Love it - that’s the putter I had my eye on this year. Same shape as the SC GOLO, which I currently use.
Great Video Pete, Love the content, so excited for the year Ahead to see how you perform, With the new set up, Best of Luck 🤞🏌♂⛳
Learned a lot, and could tell you know what you’re talking about!
So happy to see Peter Finch at my favorite City Of Phoenix course! Aguila is awesome!
I researched a lot of putters that are forgiving and affordable as well. I ended up purchasing an Odyssey Stroke Lab Exo 2 Ball. The stats from testing as far as pace on heel and toe strikes (on James Robinsons channel) were impressive. I also liked the alignment of the 2 ball and am excited to use it this upcoming year. I got it in a 35” length and the chunky stock odyssey grip. It’s a sexy beast.
Its the 8802 not BB02 Pete…
made me sick hearing him say it
@@ThumbeIeena Crenshaw would be rolling in his grave, if he were dead, which he thankfully is not.
Yep, he needs a lesson in golf history
Right....hes a pro, and a content creator. He doesnt have time to be gear nerds like most of us. Get real. @mikkelchristiansen9132
@@shmirginhymer1867 it literally says it on the bottom
The Wilson putter you showed first is actually a sort of replica of the famous "8802" from 1964. Made popular by Wilson after Arnold Palmer parted with the company. However, Wilson continued to produce the blade in several iterations for decades after. Originally called "Designed by Arnold Palmer", Wilson gave the putter the stock number 8802 and this became its brand. The brand is 8802 (number) and not BB02 as you called it. JMTC
Love the weirdness of the lab. But what I love more is the easiness and confidence I get from it. Drop 5 strokes on average a round within 2 months
You gotta give the LAB DF3 a shot, it's incredible
Amen!!!
How long you had it?? I might get one for Father’s Day??
@@thews9237 had it about 3 months, it's incredible. The only time I've ever been confident putting
Changed to the L.A.B Link 1 and can't imagine buying anything other than a L.A.B putter from now on.
The Lab mallet also doubles as a beer bottle opener.
Also is it bad I'm still rolling with the Ping Zing 2?
I would like to see a count of how many videos you’ve done on the same topics. It really is kind of astounding. Especially with all the staff you’ve added
I play the Odyssey 2-ball blade, tried blades and mallets and just couldn't get on with them properly, walked in to my local golf store and tried that, felt really good with it and my putting has improved immensely.
gutted the wilson staff 8802 didnt make the testing after you had said it looked great in a previous video. Happy to borrow it from you 😝
1:22 BB02? 😂 Arnie is turning in his grave right now.
Would love to see you get a fitting with the putter. I've never had one. How to determine the lie angle, loft and grip. Thanks Peter. I see a lot of people hitting at the ball with the right hand. I know from experience this will cause the yips. Try to feel the hands working together
I’ve been rocking an original 2001 style odyssey white hot 2-ball since I was 16 and I absolutely love it. (I’m only 21, it’s my dads old putter)
It broke my heart to see the lip out, but the fact it was chosen to be part of the finals made me feel good, (also you can tell from his putting, the half-moon AI was the winner). I know it’s obviously not the best putter, but for it to still compete feels good
For many years I used a Counterbalance Top Flight putter I got for I think $40 at DSG and I absolutely LOVED it. Just about the only reason Ive moved on was I became a big Cobra fan and they came out with the 3D Printed putters, my day job centers around 3D Printing so it was a really hard to ignore release for me, and yes I have since gotten a set of the irons.
But maybe more notably to the some of the points of the video, I actually armlock to my trail arm because its just more comfortable for me and while I think Ive always been a solid putter I probably have been putting my best with it. Using the trail arm might keep me from losing power too?
Switched from an anser to a Wilson mallet putter about a year ago, was genuinely surprised how big a difference it made my pace control has been hugely improved
All down to personal preference
I have the oddysey white hot no1 and love it,but have a tendancy to push right when not up on practice. Going for a fitting soon to see whatbest suits my stroke,but as semi beginner golfer, get confused with options. What is the difference between face insert and a milled face design, as looking at a mallet style and those seem have the milled, like the toulon las vegas (one im eyeing up)
0:13 as someone who is currently looking for their 2nd putter to buy in 22 years, this made me LOL. 🤣
Been using an Odyssey Tank 2 Ball for the last 8 years and love it but it needs an upgrade. Actually going to go get fitted for it so I can play with a few different models as considering a new grip set up as well so need to try a few things out! If only I had Pete's collection to try this out myself....
L.A.B. DF3 Pete. You rolled the DF2.1 so well. Just need to get your head around it!!!!
I had 2' putters a heavier mallet head Wilson putter for slow winter greens and a lighter one for fast summer greens always worked for me 😀⛳
Love the video! I have found that an old Sam Snead "pay-off" putter works best for me. That's right...an ugly metal version of the rubber two-way putters you use at mini putt golf courses. 😂😊
I've been using an Odessy Fang 2-Ball for years, and love that thing. The only thing I'd think of changing it out for is the Odessy Sabertooth.
Have and loved that putter until the white hot insert started separating from the face 😢
Peter. Take a red sharpie and put a dot right infront of the forward circle on top. I find the 2 circles are super for alignment and the red dot helps with the strike!
I’m currently working in a golf shop and I’ve noticed in my time working there that the neck of the putter has a massive effect on performance, and certain necks suit arcs or arches
Finally a short all in one detailed video on putters.
I’m not surprised they were closely matched. After all they’re the same manufacturer. I had an original 2 ball white hot, but found the face too hard, so actually went to an O-Works with micro hinge which I found to be slightly softer and found my groove with it. So maybe your suggestions of 2 ball AI is sound?
I had a TM Spider, experimented a bit and found out I liked putting from a pretty vertical angle. The only putter that matches that is the SIK (80 degree lie vs almost every other putter at around 70 degree lie). So I got the Bryson style in double wide and I love it.
Apparently the new lab df3 is the new most forgiving slightly smaller than the old one
Great stuff! When I got my putter (cobra cuda vintage) my fitter told me that one of the most important things about picking a putter is the looks. You can find putters that behave the same but the club you look at the most is the putter and if you feel something is off about how it looks its a no go.
I agree. I also think it's true of any club in your bag, but as you said, your putter is the only club you use on every hole. Looking down at any club that you don't like automatically puts doubt in your mind, and your brain will try to create any outcome or thought you have, good or bad. Golf is truly all about confidence.
I have recently got the cobra putter it is great
@peterfinchgolf have you tried the LAGolf Malibu putter? Maybe another one to add to your massive collection?
I’m sorry! Did you say Wilson BB02!? Don’t you mean 8802? Unforgivable error for a putter hoarder.
What do you think about headweight vs counter levered? I’ve always like a really heavy head to help quiet my hands never tried counter levered
Just completed my personal masterpiece. Miura KM007, LA Golf Soho shaft, and a Pure Oversized grip. The grip is heavy enough to counterbalance the heavy Miura head, and tbh I didn't know a putter could feel this nice. It's been a work in progress for years, but I feel like it's finally done and I struggle to believe it's not the best putter on the planet.
I’m gaming a KM-350 with the original Nippon shaft, but I badly need a heavier grip and/or lead plug, but I really prefer a thin grip.
@@jon4715 If I could find a reasonably priced 350 I'd pick that up too. I'd say check out Pure, but they're now out of business (I bought 2 extras, which should last literally forever). Their oversized isn't huge, but it's non tapered and whatever rubber they used has a great feel... obviously subjective.
Don't remember exactly when I got it new, but I still use a 1985ish Ping Zing 2. I have tried every conceivable model, style and brand over the decades, including original and newer Zings, and nothing feels or works better. It is perfectly balanced, the right weight, and has felt great with old and newer golf balls. I have always used a two-piece ball due to spin control. Everything from 80s Top Flite XL to the current Supersoft, but even with old tour balatas, and newer urethane balls, this putter just works.
I have the mizuno omoi 3 putter and it is so forgiving, genuinely the most underrated putter manufacturer out there.
I love my Nike method core blade, its perfect for me.
Gutted you didn’t keep the 2 ball from last year as you putter so well and consistently with it! ⛳️
What’s your advice regarding weight of putter ? …. My friends comment that my Rife Raider is heavy , compared to their putters , Odyssey or Taylormade. I quite liked the feel of it but now quite conscious it is heavy
Peter you were the one to first introduce me to an evnroll. I love my blacked out ER5. Also I think differently than what you said. I like a soft face because I have trouble getting it to the hole. The soft face makes me think I won’t blow it past and confidence to give it enough pace.
Still my custom Scotty Laguna. Nothing has come close to the feel and consistency I get with it 15 years later.
Ive had my design by Cleveland in bag for 30yr old style proper blade soft no sweet spot absolutely love it still. Putting should be about feel & being comfy with a putter in hand
Why haven’t you tried the jailbird since it’s so popular now
BB02 ? Should that be 8802 ? Come on Pete
I was going to ask that...but then I figured maybe I was calling it the wrong thing all these years
So my son and I have been doing this test for several months down at the local Golf Galaxy. And like you he has really locked his putter down to a Odyssey also. Really been very good at rolling the rock with the triple hot putters, but they have been so high. And of course he wanted to see if the new AI would allow him to putt even better. What he and I did not like about the new AI was the face being sooo hot. The long putts were still great while the short putts seemed to be hard to hit. The previous years triple hot was already reactive but the AI face has carried it to another level. So he put the AI against the triple hot. And well the triple hot and he just get along better. Not to mention the $100 price drop for the Triple Hot. It was a no brainer for us. Probably already shaved 2 or three off his round with the triple hot!!!
I recommend you keep both putters. Pull the one you feel that day. But I did learn you have one great putting stroke.
Surprised you didn't go back to the LAB putter, you seem to hole loads when you had it! But whatever works for year of the Finch!
Love my LAB putter. Nothing beats it.
Can’t believe you’ve binned the 2-ball Pete. Never seen you putt better than in 2023. However…. Positive mind is all you need & you’ll be good. Looking forward to a great 2024 🤞🏻💪🏻
it's all about the mind the game of golf, confidence, to watch your golf game and hear you talk about confidence standing over those 3 ft putts, wow what a sport golf is, great chioce, well i guess, performance picked the putter, but I totally get the right feel from the right club at the right moment, if we talk about money or bragging rights the putter will make it happen,as it goes, what do we learn the hard way in life, knowledge promotes confidence, until we step onto the 15th green on the Bethpage Black, lol it gets thrown right out the window, and you start praying to God. Ha ha, thanks. I loved the content. like you stated, take that last glance at the target and go. we can never control the outcome, just the effort.
I’d like to see you test the new line of Toulon putters. Same shapes, less branding, more refined
Pleased as can be to see that you filmed in the US at one of Phoenix's city courses rather than finding a private/semi-private club. Aguila is a great choice among the city courses... I hope you got to play there that day.
I’m surprised you didn’t try the Odyssey 2 Ball AI One? Any reason why?
Just bought my 9th scotty. Not sure which is my favourite.
This is no doubt going to sound mental, but I have a Cobra arm lock putter which I've been using for 2 years now. When I play in the winter, it's often so cold that I don't take my right hand winter mit off, and I putt like tiger.... Considering everyone bangs on about feel, I can't really understand what's going on.... Any ideas
I like that Pete claims he doesn’t like center shafted putters but then he has the lab putter which is center shafted. I recently switched to center shafted putters and I had a cheap Wilson blade that I actually really loved and now I have a Callaway 11 center shafted and I am nailing my putts
Had my Odyssey Black Series #9 putter since 2009. Would like to test some of the new putters just out of curiosity but I do love my putter
Nice video lads! but.......... the gold face was unmistakable in yesterdays video so potentially the drama was ruined 😆
Pete, are you swinging these putters stock or are they being fit for you? Apologies if you already mentioned at some point in the video...
I love my ER11. How did you like Aguila? I think it's pretty good for a muni. You need to come out to the East Valley next time you're in AZ. (Las Sendas, Gold Canyon, Ocotillo, Poston Butte ) And if you look at my comment on your Unboxing Vid, I picked the Mallet AI 🤩
Sorry Peter, i am having to Unsubscribe, as i have a Cleveland Centre Shaft Putter and I love it, I only like you.
Same
@darrencouzins6500 I myself have a center shafted Cleveland putter and it has shaved strokes off my scorecard each year. I won't unsubscribe from @peterfinchgolf though his content is too good and is allowed a mistake or two
ShEEEEEEsh.
I agree, sorry Peter Finch centre shafted putters are the best to help with alignment and they look great behind the ball. But if the Taylor made spider is going in the bin I will happily help you dispose of it. 😂
Had the L.A.B. DF-1 a couple years ago. Could not get used to it. Requires a specific way to sole the club which I was never consistent enough with. Went to a Scotty Cameron Futura X7m. It's money. Great lag putter from 20-40 feet. Pretty much 100% inside 6 feet.
Time for Specsavers, it's a Wilson Staff 8802, a classic model since the 60s
Very good choise! But I do am surprised that you dont consider Ping.. Or have you?
Lab DF3! Lab is the best in the game!
I have a True Stroke center shaft with a two thumb wide grip and I love it. Regular putters just don’t work right for me.
I chose my putter by swinging them, the one that felt like it moved straightest for me through my stroke (no heel, toe wiggling - the face STAYED square), I selected a Lynx Predator P-01 (Anser blade style) and so far it seems to have been a good choice as I can drop a ball within a few inches from 7-8 feet on a straight'ish putt assuming I miss it.
I find the Ai One grips to be horrendous but the putters are great. Doesn’t hurt to have a trusty 2 ball as your backup.
I'd love to see you try an Axis-1 putter. Definitely an odd look but it has a feel that no other putters really replicate. Its center balanced even though its technically heel shafted. Very odd but worth a look!
He has. Did a video on them a couple years ago.
@@BucsGolf Sweet! I'll see if I can find it!
@@BucsGolf I watched it and I find it on how much he had success with it but it never really came back into his consideration. Odd, seems like he should reevaluate one more time
Just out of curiosity, in long putts, is it normal to hear the ball skid a bit at the start? I've noticed that Pete does it and so do I, but not sure if it's a normal thing for others.
Still running my ping pal 4. It's awful. I love it.
The only putter I am comfortable with are Odyssey #9 shaped
Although I absolutely hate the look of it, I might need to try a lab, or the other forgiving options.....
The final two pretty test reminds me of how little kids “race” hot wheels. Which isn’t to say it’s a bad thing
Hey, I have the same 2-Ball. It is in my garage, I am way better with a double-width blade.
I’m very surprised you didn’t bring a Mezz or Mezz max or even the new DF3
My buddy needs a center shafted driver. Dudes broken 2 in the last 2 years from pounding it off the heel over and over
Pete, try the Mizuno M-Craft Omoi type 5 center shafted half mallet. Might fix that gag reflex 😂
Have you ever tried the carbite putters? I’ve loved them and had one in my bag most of my adult life amazing putters that nobody knows about.
