Broomstick Putters
There is another aspect that I forgot about my B/stick,when I need to revisit my p/stroke re hand and putter face alignment I do practice with long putter first with short putter nearby so I can swap over ,it has help me in the past.

Im old skool I guess, think that the broomstick is ungolf like etc . But I dont think they help my putting much if at all. If you asked me to name a modern club that has totally changed the way is game played (especially by amateurs) Id say utility wood. Guys who couldnt hit a long iron are now carrying the ball 200 yards and sticking it , even out of the rough where formerly they would have had no chance.

Lets make those things illegal so I can get my one iron out of the basement !

I'm with you, O.B. If I had to give up my two hybrids, I'd have to take up bowling. Those things are like wedges.

Hah. Jerry , those things are game changers. Some guys I play with have three or four of them .... drives me crazy. Guys I used to have a clear advantage over from 250 yards to 190 yards with irons are now zinging shots in there from way out ... What the heck !

I finally got one last summer . That thing cant miss , its like cheating . Lets make them illegal !!!!!

I wanta Random Sweep Release a long iron , long and high again! Jack Nicklaus's long iron play would be obsolete today.

The long wand is uglier but the utility wood is more of a game changer. In regard to the anchoring thing.. Didnt Arnie anchor his hands when putting ? Billy Casper? You can anchor with a short wand.

For the record though ... there's something very ugly about the long wand to my eye. Doesnt seem like golf. Lets get rid of it but .... it isnt that much advantage to my mind.
