Those out there bitching and complaining about special/limited edition equipment and their price tags, guess what? You're not the target audience. Obviously😂
I had a lesson with Chris, his view is if you can putt ie the mechanics are right then any putter will do, and it comes down to personal Preference. I have no plans to change mine at all, it works the biggest issue is I miss hit it at times lifting my head so slightly too the ball
I've always had ping clubs but they're really starting to exaggerate their prices. I know they're good products but I bet their profits margin is way too much
That’s a sexy putter. I have a PLD Anser 2 in the brushed chrome color that I’m terrible with (currently gaming a phantom x12), but that black and gold looks fabulous. Very tempting if not just for the collection.
I have a Scotty Cameron champions choice Newport 1.5+ I love the Teryllium insert, I do game mine but I know alot of people just get them to put on a shelf or re-sell
New driver fit? Lol 50-$100 fitting charge, $500 driver, $300 for premium shaft, getting closer to $900 for that. If you want to save money, learn more about equipment so you know what you need and you can find deals
Non starter for me. I play a 33" due to my 28" inseam. I prefer mallet head heavy putters. Like my Odyssey triple track. Got it off Ebay for a whole lot less than this Ping retro.
They do make this in left-handed and 35 inches. It’s a limited release, so some retailers might already be out of the exact specs you’re looking for - but it just took a quick search to see that there are plenty of lefty ones and 35” ones available.
Hiya James…lovin the great content mate..you certainly cover alot and its all very interesting. Just wanted to shoot you this message about imho the best cavity back tour iron out there on the market today. The YAMAHA RMX VD/R iron - I’m gonna go all Yamaha for my pro bag in 2025 and was just wondering if, when you have the time to check this product out. Exclusive Japanese marketing has kinda frozen it out of the big UK Europe and USA golf retail markets but it has certainly 0:02 attracted big noise all across Asia when it was launched last fall and it’s accompanying VD drivers and fairway woods. I’m sure when you see the iron you will be very excited by it and possibly enough so to do a video review on it. Thanks as always pal…best wishes in all your future golf endeavors. Regards Mike.
The fact that Ping isn't offering this putter for left handed and only for right handed golfers is so off-putting that it prompts me to never buy another Ping product ever again! Its kinda rediculas I'm not sure what they think their playing at but it certainly makes Ping look…..well dumb…halfwitted…brain dead!
I have an old rusted bettinardi JDM putter that I bought for $40 in a used club shop in Bangkok a few years back and I love that putter. Going to sell all my other putters. I don’t own and have owned a ping and will never own one.
Recently just switched out my scotty newport 2.5 for a blacked out ping tyne 4 ....and a taylormade tour response stripe ball.....and I have the stats from last 3 months and I am making 40 % more putts from out side 10 foot ....and 23% more puts inside 10 foot.....can't argue with data .....but I did not buy the 2023 pld tyne 4 ....couldn't see the extra 200 dollars ....
Be careful riding the buggy. My friend hadn’t yet gotten on the buggy when the driver took off. She was thrown off the buggy and broke 3 ribs. Now she can’t play ⛳️ til at least July.
No I would not pay that for a putter but an interesting point you made we all pay lots for drivers and only use the about 14 times a round compared to 24-36 putts. 🤔
You know, I’ve seen tons of golf equipment reviews on this channel. All sorts of direct to consumer iron brands. Even a Kirkland set. Why can’t you guys review the Maltby lineup? They have the TS1 IM, TS3, and TS4 blade. You guys should get those and review them.
Yeah, I have brought up this same comment (re: Maltby) in the past, with several of these RUclips guys. When everyone was spending $$$ on clubs these guys would not even sniff at component manufacturers. They went as far as companies like Takomo, who offer a hybrid business model (a limited selection of clubheads and shafts). But now that such a large percentage of players are resisting these ridiculous prices they are going to have to acknowledge reality and start giving clubs like the Maltby products serious consideration. They day is coming.....MG
@@montegustafson5142I purchased TAKOMO Irons 2 weeks ago and have to say they are the Best Irons I have owned ! Mizuno’s ,Taylormade ,Wilson , Cobra ,The only thing close to them is My King Cobra Forged Tech ,which I still love also .
A quick Google would have told you that the putter is available in 35" shaft, and also left handed.

UGH! That’s $873 🇨🇦. I bought a set delivered to my door, of PXG 0211 irons for considerably less. Atrociously priced.
I have used the same putter since I was 16 years old...and I am 66 years old! I have no intentions of changing putters now.
What putter is it?
It’s one club I have rarely changed, only twice and I’ve been playing for 20 years

I use a LAB Golf DF3. All other putters are chopped liver to me.
I went to PGASS to test the Ping DS72 and ended up ordering a DF3 after testing nearly every putter in the store.
Honeymoon phase. I tried the DF3 at Roger Dunn and wasn’t fully convinced. Putting is all about feel and a very personal choice.
The ugliest putter on the planet.
Putter prices (and drivers as well) have gotten pretty silly. Haven't found anything magical out there. Sticking with my Odyssey OG #7.
I've always had ping clubs but they're really starting to exaggerate their prices. I know they're good products but I bet their profits margin is way too much
Club prices getting out of hand more and more

If he works get the guy his own golf cart when you film

The old Answer was my old friend.

It's a nice putter. Probably not £500 nice though, but it doesn't matter to me because I've had my putter ages and we've got used to each other.
That putter looks gorgeous. Best looking putter I think I’ve ever seen 😍
limited now, and if they sell out they will move into the same pattern as the rest of the high-end putters...
"John might not get this back" let's hope John's wife doesn't get to see this 😂😂😂😂
So Chris was saying toe hang slows down the toe through impact?
I always thought it was opposite 🤦😂
James I’d like to travel to the UK and visit your garage to see what golf clubs I could use and the golf balls I would want to also take.
This is a crazy comment.
Lovely looking putter and John needs to make an appearance on the channel again

It’s nice. I still use the old ping putters.
Bobby back from his holiday
Game M -Craft Mizuno Forged and Milled ,toe Heavy $300.00 I open and release toe and putt very well with it !

These days the price of putters are astronomical you do well if you find what you want below £150
Come see me I’ve got a 35”
When they mention “winningest”, I’m sure they are referring to the Anser, which is in its various forms is legendary.
Be careful riding the buggy. My friend hadn’t yet gotten on the buggy when the driver took off. She was thrown off the buggy and broke 3 ribs. Now she can’t play ⛳️ til at least July.
Love your reviews. Can't find your review of the Macgregor V Max irons. Saw the driver and the driving irons but no irons. Is it still available?
No I would not pay that for a putter but an interesting point you made we all pay lots for drivers and only use the about 14 times a round compared to 24-36 putts. 🤔
James, it does come in 35”. I’ve seen it on clubhouse and Scottsdale
Winningest sounds like me after a few shandy’s.
We should be willing to pay more for the putter but drivers are cooler😎
I use a Wilson tpa putter always used it even when I played in junior s 😊
TGW in shows it in stock in 35 inches so it can be found
I have the anser 2D and it’s phenomenal
Cut to the chase hahah
Well done James 👏

Aren’t Takomo irons just glorified Temu/Wish/Alibaba irons?!
Who buys these putters. No one at my club plays ping putters
Expensive snake-oil BS
Lay off the biscuits.
