One other point to note is the guy I bought it from had ordered it 2 degrees flat (68 degrees) which is the lie angle I perform best with. Lie angle for me makes a difference in a putter performing adequately to having the potential to be great. Just one more variable removed to help to ensure that set-up is consistent every time. Funny thing is the putter is stamped 72 degrees on the bottom.
Thats huge dude, IMO lie angle is crazy overlooked in putters. Proper sole-ing of the club is key!

Nice first round with the CS Smart square model today. Had 29 total putts--only 13 on front 9. Love this thing so far. This CS model really fits me better. Only one 3 putt today down a very large slope where gravity would not allow the putt to stop unless you ran into the hole.
Sounds good teammate. I'll be picking one of these up the second the snow melts here.Nice first round with the CS Smart square model today. Had 29 total putts--only 13 on front 9.

Will have it out at Cowboys for you to test too!Sounds good teammate. I'll be picking one of these up the second the snow melts here.
Eagerly waiting to try out the CS one.
Possibly a custom order from one of the online sellers would do. Any good local shop could order this and do it for you as well--just call and see who is ready to earn the business. I have always done my own grips so I never asked, but this a pretty common request as many don't like stock grips on putters.I want one of these bad boys and I want to put a SS 2.0 or 3.0 on it, haven't decided yet. Any ideas on good places to get it and get it regripped in one stop?
First 9 holes with the CB version was not good.
However, it was 35 degrees and I didn't warm up and had never used it before.
Still going to give it a real shot!
After giving the Smart Square a time out the last couple of weeks, I pulled it back out with some work on mechanics (rock shoulders--closer to the ball and better eye line just inside the target line) Took it out for 9 holes today and had 14 putts with no 3 putts--which is a major improvement from its last showing. I really do think I was sloppy on my setup before having the ball way out in front of me where I was way inside the target line and had to have a perfect arc to stay on line. Getting closer has allowed me to deliver the stroke on the good alignment the squares give me.
So you are digging the shorter length with the heavier head weight?Update to progress: Using 35" Center Shafted SS putter.
Had 31 putts today and only one 3 putt. These are some very tough greens out here on dormant winter greens--the good news is it making me focus more and get better. Sticking to this and not bailing at the first sign of trouble has allowed me more confidence in the putter and in turn I am performing better.
Just so I understand what you are saying here. You took a 38" or 39" almost belly, with additional head weight, and cut it down to 35"? So you are playing a more traditional length putter with the additional head weight of an almost belly? Or do I have that mixed up?So you are digging the shorter length with the heavier head weight?
Exactly what I was a big fan of. The 35-36" putters of the heavier variety are quickly becoming a must have for me.
