  • Rickie Fowler and the US Open Champion Wyndham Clark both used counter balance mallet style putters when battling out the 2023 US Open Major Championship at Los Angeles Country Club.
    If you are struggling with your putting is this a method you should consider?
    What should you look for when testing a counter balance or longer putter like Rickie Fowler and Wyndam Clark?
    Will a longer putter improve your performance?
    In this weeks #tourtrucktuesday video I will walk you through the process of what to consider when getting a putter fitting and what you should be asking yourself when it comes to testing a new style of putting.
    The PGA Tour professionals are using longer less traditional styles when it comes to their games so is this something you should look to incorporate into your game.

    Just switched to counterbalance and it’s the best thing that’s happened to my game. So much more confident and smoother

    I actually just purchased a Spider GT after doing a lot of research into length among some other factors. I have mild cerebral palsy, and I find that a longer putter helps me with correct posture after years of swinging a blade (and honestly, forcing a lot of putts well off-line). Thank you for this video and others you've done on the Spiders! #legend

    I put a weight in last year and has really helped on the 4 to 6 foot putts - can trust the strike and hit it straighter with more pace, if you are face balanced you gotta try it

    Problem is most longer grips are too light! You do need a heavy grip or a grip with that huge heavy weight that goes in the top

  • @KaiserVonWilhelm1
    @KaiserVonWilhelm1 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I was always told the counterbalance only works if you grip down on the longer putter. The counterweight has to be like an inch above your top hand roughly for it to achieve the "counter" to the weight of the putter head. You demonstrated a grip that was right at the top of the grip and standing up tall. Does that still work or does it defeat the purpose of the "counter" balance? For instance can I just take my 35" putter which I grip near the butt end and just add a weighted grip to it?

    • @trottiegolf
      @trottiegolf  ปีที่แล้ว

      You can but you'll be swinging the weight therefore the grip. Ultimately this is gonna come down to personal preference & how you like to feel the release of the putter

    Trottie… Which irons would you recommend to exchange with for Mizzuno Semi Cod Mx19 irons that were given to me. The P-7TW irons milled grind $2k or P790 P770 I’m a 15-16 handicap shooting low 90s decent iron player. I’m leaning towards P-7TW speeder nx red regular or stiff shaft. Thank you for your time and help. God Bless ⛳️🕺🏽

      hey Dominic, why do you want blades if you're currently running a 16?
      If you love those irons then who am I to turn you off them?
      Just not the most user friendly would be my call out

      Sup PLYR. I just tried to dig you out some links of old vids but you're right, everything I've done has involved equipment with a grip, opposed to the grip then the equipment.
      I can add an overview of all methods to the list, maybe it's a fall thing or off season thing as I want everyone to be getting their flow going right now opposed to worrying about grip changes.
      BUT I hear ya & a nice complete guide in one spot would be solid - thx for the request / suggestion.
      In the short term search putter vids as I know I touch on a lot of that stuff in my equipment vids around putters

      Obv #subscribe here 🤣, get connected with a manufacturer or if you don't want to work in it then just get close with a builder or a radar / launch monitor company.
      Then depends what you wanna do?
      Fit Tour PLYR's
      Fit kids
      Amateurs
      Consumers
      Yourself?
      There's tons of options
      Step 1 - launch monitor basics
      Step 2 - some swing fundamentals (always helps)
      Step 3 - product knowledge but that one evolves so stay on it
      Step 4 - Your style and genre
      Step 5 - Make it fun (depending on 4's answer, as tour isn't always fun 🤣)
      Step 6 - The PLYR can always overrule
      There's a good start, now hopefully I see ya down the track

      Golfworks sells counter balance weights. You need to drill the proper size hole in the end of the grip first. What is a good SW for a putter to help keep our hands and wrists quiet?

    LACC member and the USGA made the 2023 US Open the WORST in the champions history. LACC should NEVER EVER be given any tour. The "average golf" got the short end of the stick; the tee times sucked...feel back for those across the pond.
