    Default Bought a C-Groove Putter.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=7128160933

    Just wanted to see what all the fuss was about with Apples winning with this model in Hawaii and Goosen using one to win a couple of US Opens.

    I'm also going to give left hand low/cross handed putting a go for a while....as anyone who has played with me lately knows I'm putting like a blind man and a few sessions on the Nudgee practice greens this week have shown me that crosshanded gets the ball started on line better than conventional.With the old grip there would be some putts that I'd just think "WHAAAT"
    So we will see how I go today with the new grip. and the C-Groove should be here next week.

    good luck with the cross handed Gaz I used it for 12 months a few years ago and it does make a difference....locks the wrist up nicely...

    gazgolf, those Yes C-grooves certainly look sweet. I think Callaway has also brought out a line of C-grooves.

    Good luck with the technique change.

    What is the sellers name? The link you posted above says they only post to the US.

    Kind regards,

    Thats the seller.....never take that "will ship to the US only" as gospel, a lot of US Ebay sellers are quite happy to ship to Australia all you have to do is email them and ask.

    Gaz I have putted cross handed most of my golfing life. I only tried the conventional grip the last few months. I am putting terrible with it so I have gone back to the old faithfull cross handed again

    I find it much easier to get the ball on line, especially with the short ones
    Good luck with it today.

    Ducky, if you really want a Yes putter, I've got a bead on them at an extremely good price. John at Clubmaker Online in the U.S. was doing a special on them during the week and he delivers to Australia not a problem.

    Hell, at least if I can't ho' I can help others...

    Ducky, not a problem. I'll get the price & a shipping quote for you. The Tracy is a sweet looking putter, named after Retief Goosen's wife.

    E-mail sent to John at Clubmaker-Online. He would have gone home by now, so I might not have an answer until Tuesday morning our time.

    If others want Yes C-groove putters, John sells the whole range. You might save on shipping by getting them shipped together.

    Is she a sweet looking putter? It is it something more to do with the 'putz'?

    Eags,
    Crosshanded putting is here to stay ,I had my best putting round in months today for a 73 off the stick and 42 points.
    The C groove would wanna be pretty special to knock the mezza out of the bag after today.

    Cross handed for me too again. I've used it off and on for ages. Played with jaster and out trainee pro a week ago and putted crap for the first 6 or 7 holes. Just couldn't help decelerating through the shot. Next hole went to crosshand and slambed it into the back of the hole. Kept it up from there on.
