For the first time in quite a while I bought nothing today. I did get a nice plain white box from TaylorMade though!

My recently purchased Rife Trinidad putter finally arrived. It's got to make the bag so it will take a few days of testing to knock out the NC Voodoo Daddy. I know for sure after rolling it today the grip will be changed. I had already ordered a Tiger Shark blue oversized grip prior to the putter arriving. I will change that tomorrow and then more testing to be done. It rolled the ball decent today but the putter felt light with the head feeling a bit heavy if that makes sense. I am hoping changing the grip will even out the overall weight plus the larger grip just feels better in my large hands. I got this putter for $86.00 bucks on ebay slightly used. It looked new when it arrived.

Quick update: NC Voodoo Daddy still owns it slot in my bag! This Rife feels a bit too harsh on off center putts. If you hit the sweet spot it's sweet. Maybe it's user error but the Rife Trinidad is not for me. I will give it a B- because it does roll the ball really well (on sweet spot hits) and is very pleasing to the eyes.

Yea brother I am not the sutan of the slickness however ol voodoo still feels more like my pet. I am sure there will be other suitors coming soon. Especially the top three putters you guys had at the recent putting testing.

really? what's next on the hit list old pal? i know you like your center shafted stuff, so i'd highly recommend you try the Si1 from seemore. and if you like mallets, then i would recommend giving the monza corza ghost a test drive.
 
I may or may not have bought a VR tour 9.5 with a PX 7.0 shaft.

I was thinking on the lines of the SB-2 which is my best of show pic however the center shaft model, Si1 is definitely high on the lists. Santa are you listening dude?

haha, may or may not, that's classic.

i hope that shaft is stout enough for you JRod. i used it for all of my rounds a couple of weekends ago in florida and it just didn't work as well for me as i'd hoped.

I got it for dirt cheap and its really just a fix until May. I probably won't even use it 10 rounds before then. Its lighter than i wanted but for 147$ shipped new I couldn't refuse. I will just resell it after I get something fit to me.

Edit: did you use the 7.0 Freq? What didn't you like about it?

sorry jrod, been one of those days my friend. so, the PX 7.0. i love the look of the shaft and quite liked what i felt from it but something just wasn't right about it for me. i'm not sure if it's b/c my miyazaki is just ideal for me or not but the PX just seemed to not unload for me like i'm use to. i don't have the swing speed you do but i know that it was lagging off behind me on my down swing, almost as if the stiffness wasn't where i need it to be or where i'm use to it being. i'm just nervous that if i was seeing this problem that you may see it, or worse. good smooth swings and it was fine but if i wanted to get after it a bit, it didn't hold up like i'm use to with my miyazaki.
 
I went to Golf Galaxy today and they put the Black/Green Golf Pride New Decade Multi Compound on clearance. $2.99 apiece! I picked up 10 grips that I'll put on my irons/wedges in the spring. I've gone a bit crazy recently, I bought 2 TM xFT wedges and 2 replacement faces and I used some store credit for 5 dozen Bridgestone B330-S balls. I am set for next year!

Good info I'll have to check it out...like I said this was basically just a filler, I felt like buying something and I saw this dirt cheap so if it works great, if not I will get my money back. Thanks for the info bro hope your day improves!

no worries jrod, sorry it took me so long to get back to you. it is a good shaft, and if i couldn't have what i have, i would go with the PX line.
