I've played both of the 20-20s, and because they have so much weight at the back corners, they're very, very forgiving on off-center putts. So if you're a person that tends to catch the ball on the toe or heel of your putter occasionally, these putters will help you keep some semblance of the line you were looking for.

there's nothing douchier than a signature that lists all the junk you've bought. NOBODY CARES.

Any suggestions welcome, I'll be at my girlfriends, but will check for posts later.

I want to buy one of the Belly putters (always wanted to try one), but there are two sets numbered 20-20A, and the dropdown to select an item doesn't scroll to the right. How do I know if I selected the one I really wanted before finalizing the payment?

Actually, if you check out some of the reviews, some of these (at least the 20-20 will let you pick up the ball without bending over.

These clubs must be used and appear to be total cr*p. How else do you explain all those bends in the shafts? Looks like they were all wrapped around a tree after some serious three and four putts!

These are not bad putters at all. I had the 20-15. The thing I liked about it was the shaft, face and all was the same color green. This is supposed to blend in with the grass of the greens and help you focus on the alignment line more. It does help do that. You still need to put a good stroke on the ball. Its not putting it for you, just giving you less disctractions.

My 20-15's shaft's paint started peeling, leaving a distractive looking shaft in my line of sight. I sent it to Nike to replace through my pro shop. It took quite a while to replace. By the time they replaced it, I had fallen in love with a Scotty Cameron putter. So, I traded it in for club cash. I think this is a good deal as long as you are aware that the shaft may peel. That is probably why the used ones are going so cheap.

I think they are referring to visual noise. This means visual distractions that may be a part of the putter or you r surroundings that distract you from lining up you putt correctly.

Take it to your local pro shop or sporting goods store... they can add an extension for about $5 plus the cost of a new grip (Winn's are notoriously hard to remove intact).

As for the Nike putters being wooted right now, $50 seems to be the going rate for these things right now. Rock Bottom Golf has them on sale through Monday for $49.29 + shipping. http://www.rockbottomgolf.com/nike-golf-ic-20-putter.html#

The putter-buying experience without the practice holes at Edwin Watts that all slope toward the cup like a floor drain? Probably easier to imagine what these putters are like than it is to miss the cup at a golf shop.

Scotty Cameron putters are Ping putter Knock-offs, but instead of a cheaper price (like most knock-offs) they have a really high price. High Price = Really Good? Tiger grew up using Ping putters until Scotty sent a couple hookers to Tiger's room. It's true...I read it in the Enquirer.

No no no, not endorsed by Tiger Woods; these are endorsed by Elin Woods. They have nice balance and are guaranteed not to crack when contacting bone.

I have the 20-20 and like it. The design makes it easy to align, it sits flat on the ground, it is nicely balanced so you won't have a problem with the yipes, and . . . it is a great ball retreiver from both the ground and the water.

I switched to the Oddessy White Hote #9 that Phil uses and like it even more.

Have decided to boycott Nike products for their shameless support of the Cheetha.

If you can't pick a ball up without bending with the 20-20 it is because you are too drunk to be playing golf.

That video they have of impact and roll is pretty dubious. if you drag the scrubber to impact you can clearly see that the angle of the putter faces are drastically different. the method is square and the "other" putter is a few degrees open. Weak sauce.

Not to say the putters are bad in any way, (I prefer Odyssey myself) but that is not a great demo.

if you use INTERNET EXPLORER and the lengths were cut off for you in the order selection process, an adjustment was made to shorten the selection names to help. (you would have seen full selection on the order confirmation but it was annoying to guess and pick on the first screen)

(we were not aware the drop down box on IE wasn't expanding as it does on other browsers, so we'll address this long term as well)

You might try a different browser or updating your current one. With Firefox 3.5.9, I get the entire description of each putter in the pull-down.

it really comes down to what is most comfortable for you. Jack Nicklaus and Phil Michelson both use shorter putters even though they are over 6'0.
