TXG have tested this at the Kingdom and the stability numbers are very impressive (you get very little side spin on off-centre hits). Personally, I don't care what a Putter looks like as long as it performs and it was interesting to see how many of these Putters were already in play at this weekends Pheonix Tournament on the PGA Tour.
Let's put it this way. In 2013 I bought an Odyssey 2-ball putter - a 40" Tank Versa. I loved it so much I bought an extra grip for it in 2013. I just had that extra grip put on yesterday. I walked into the putter fitting area to check the grip and from 12', sank the first putt, lipped out the second (stopped at 6"), and sank the third. Needless to say, I think I'll be using this 2013 model for a few more years even though the paint is beginning to look a little rough around the edges.
James unless I'm mistaken - No real mention of 'feel' ? Having the structure at the front of the Putter and raising the 'truss' / shaft junction has to alter how much feedback your hands get ?
I've got the Taylormade Rossa and absolutely love the weight on it. It is the best part of my game so I don't even look at changing for a new putter. Love that club. Just a shame I can't use any of the others in my bag!
I have played with a center shafted putter for ever. I love them... But! This is the total answer it cuts side rotation of the ball roll by 10x! The Insert is angled so that it gets the ball rolling with forward spin to pure ur putts! That looks amazing!
My club pro has just kicked up the tm1 and had a quick play with one in the shop and tbh it feels amazing, looks wise wasnt any real difference and would consider gaming one if I wasnt gaming a Newport 2
In theory, this technology could be very beneficial to prevent twisting on miss hits. Also i always wondered why putters haven't used movable weights, not as much for weight change but people typically have a typical miss in that they usually push the put or pull the put and more weight in toe or heel could help that. This could bring an entire new focus on putter technology
Cracking review James and chris 👏👏, weird looking putter but hey if it works and you hole putts and raises your confidence then why not If Tiger,Rory and other top name players game it then you will probably see more club golfers game it
An old idea. You'll also find that the top of the putter will reflect the sun, blindingly, just like the old Toulon Indianapolis putters. I had to put a strip of black electrical tape on the top of mine. I was at a pro shop today and tried these. It felt cheap, though it did seem to perform well. But at $300, I'll stick with my Toulon.
How much speed does a player make in a putting stroke to affect the torque or to twist the face of the putter? This review sounds like an informacial than a review.
Alexander Had a look at TXG vid... TXG seems to discuss about off Centre hits but nothing about the actual putter head twisting or torqueing, which is what James was saying in his video. It the truss system works, wouldn’t they run it across both (toe and heel) of the putter, hence guaranteeing that it is a perfect putt at all times?
Dominic Kam that’s the point. Off centre hits make the face torque giving the ball draw/fade spin and promote the ball to move off line. Minimizing the face torque in theory should make the ball travel straighter.
Just watched Rick Shiels' video.. I am not a fan of the Blade putter design, but that's me. I find that a lot of them look more like a turd on a stick LOL.. I like the mallet design, like the TM1. My putter is a PowerBILT TPS X-Type M900, but that's me. I like the design. I'm also just going into my second season of Golf, so maybe my tastes will change as I progress, but I still like the design better. So did Ricky Shiels, but that doesn't mean anything. Strange name, tho... When I hear Truss I think of the rafters in a ceiling to give it strength and rigidity LOL
I haven't seen a new putter that would even tempt me to change putters. I find all 4 of those putters to be hideous! I'll keep my 1970's era Bullseye blade putter...made of brass. It's been my trusted putter for 45 years now.
Look at the actual number behind the putter... TXG does a review based on actual numbers. it's will provide 10x less side spin compared to normal blade putters.
Putters are like women, gotta look good. Yes you can learn to love them in time. Too many other putters, ( cars and women) to go for a gimmick of the day. LP
A truss - something an unfortunate chap would wear after a hernia to keep his bits in place... Would I buy a putter named after that? Would I buggery.....😲
Hmmm not sure about this one does not suit my eye thats for sure Will take my closer anyday over that Might have a dabble with the odyssey triple track tho
Gimmick. If the putter face flexed then a truss would prevent that flex. Putters are solid and adding trusses doesn't prevent anything. Does it look cool? Yes. Psychological? Sure. Added weight and/or balance? Sure. Preventing twist? Nope.
Nothing against you James, I really enjoy your videos. But, them putters are awful looking. Best video shot of the putter was when I showed off your amazing looking Adidas shoes
Nothing new! Just revamped the old Titleist dead centre putter and Ashdon Golf Bermuda triangle putter! The multiplied the price by 10! You can get the Titleist on ebay for £25!
Ugly as sin... even beyond the truss, the blue color scheme is awful... If this came out on April 1st, it could genuinely pass as an April fool's joke!
Love you James but seeing all the Adi stuff starting to wonder if this is totally unbiased. I went to a sim fitting where i live in nor cal and these were there and they are hideous. Huge Taylor made fan but sorry on this one.
You do know Adidas and TM have nothing to do with each other any more Stephen? And also did you watch this video? I think to be fair I’m pretty fair on my opinion
Honestly i didn’t know so my bad. Sorry to be so sceptical. There still hideous but had a little go at golf galaxy and maybe it can work. Trying the new spider right now hoping for miracles. Appreciate you replying back to my comment.
Ridiculous TBH. And I would not be testing putters when the greens are that fluffy. Too many other things can affect the roll of the ball. Not even going to see the end of this one.

Fast forward a few years and a pandemic 😷and a wedding 👏I just bought the TB2
I like my spider putter but the truss putter science behind it makes sense. I would love to try it out.
Let's put it this way. In 2013 I bought an Odyssey 2-ball putter - a 40" Tank Versa. I loved it so much I bought an extra grip for it in 2013. I just had that extra grip put on yesterday.

Needless to say, I think I'll be using this 2013 model for a few more years even though the paint is beginning to look a little rough around the edges.
Tried these out today and the looks just go away when you use it and it feels great!
If I had to play one it definitely would’ve the TB2. I like that you got Chris in this video! He should be in more putter videos! Great video!
More Chris on the channel! Putting makes or breaks your scores. Could definitely learn from a guy like him.
Can't wait for Top Bloke's video with this guy. Should be very entertaining.
Great video and much better than others I’ve seen. Would like to see the data from off centre putts to centred putts.
Thanks for taking the time to do the review 😊
Love all the Adi sponsored guys finding ways to do close ups of the new chaos shoes 😁😉👍
Brilliant putters, TM1 is a belter...
Your buddy, Al Etches, said it best. He said it looks like a Toblerone with a Dorito attached to it. Leave it to Al to hit the nail on the head.
James unless I'm mistaken - No real mention of 'feel' ? Having the structure at the front of the Putter and raising the 'truss' / shaft junction has to alter how much feedback your hands get ?
Interesting design. Might jut need to take a look 😃
I've got the Taylormade Rossa and absolutely love the weight on it. It is the best part of my game so I don't even look at changing for a new putter. Love that club. Just a shame I can't use any of the others in my bag!
Clicked like! Honest review of affordable golf from a people’s golfer and an expert. Thank you.
JR putter is thought provoking 💪💪💪👍👍👍
Blue insert but look at your footwear - 🤔🤔🤔😯😯😯😉😉😉🙂🙂🙂
Hmmmmm..................... looks pretty stable to me. I might have to check this bad boy out. And I like Blue!
Chris, can't wait to subscribe.

Look forward to Chris’s channel...... 😃
Great review! I'm going to take a good hard look at this putter and see if it will preform for me

I tried one but still like my old Spider Platinum Tour putter better.
Txg has the numbers on it

Dominic Kam watch the TXG video on it. Or watch one of their last videos on their Quintic putting system. It will give you answers.

DC CAM no problem. I’m a bit of a fan boy of their’s being from Canada and all and I’m headed there in the coming weeks for a driver/fairway fit!

James how do u like the code chaos
That looks sweet!
Agreed, I don't understand why people don't like it. They feel great too.
Big Truss. Woop Woop
I haven't seen a new putter that would even tempt me to change putters. I find all 4 of those putters to be hideous! I'll keep my 1970's era Bullseye blade putter...made of brass. It's been my trusted putter for 45 years now.
Yes. But without the space thru the truss technically it is actually a Gussett Plate!
Would like to see if the tech actually works.
Why do the insert color mean anything compared to how it rolls the ball?
Why does anyone buy a red car instead of a blue one? Personal preference.
So Taylor Made is copying Titleist and Ashdon putters now, good grief. Thanks for the vid. James, cheers.
Companies copy each other all the time ctfuu. Did you have anything to say when Odyssey just recently copied the Taylor made spider? I
I did not as my "good grief" bit was sarcasm. Couldn't give a monkeys what companies bring out to be honest.
Rick Shiels did a review on this putter and it's old tech
Look at the actual number behind the putter... TXG does a review based on actual numbers. it's will provide 10x less side spin compared to normal blade putters.
Well they had to do something with Callaway bringing out Triple Track putters.
This style has been done before. Cant see any top pros using this anyway. Headed for the way of the TM Jetspeed. Bargain bin by summers end.
Looks like the old ashdon golf putter😳
Looks like an old banger. Won't even pick one up let alone try it.
Can it be, that you enjoyed the Christmas time a bit too much? Pants and vest look a little tight ;-)
WooHoo! A new putter for me to ignore! No thanks, I’ll keep my Ping Pal 5.
SpiderX FTW
Not a fan of the look, but those BOA Adidas are on fire! 🔥🔥🔥
Been tried before by Ashdon golf
So ugly and £269 RRP , going to be a great seller 😭
Putters are like women, gotta look good. Yes you can learn to love them in time. Too many other putters, ( cars and women) to go for a gimmick of the day. LP
Test and give us the numbers!
A truss - something an unfortunate chap would wear after a hernia to keep his bits in place...
Would I buy a putter named after that?
Would I buggery.....😲
More Chris.
A truss distributes weight to a stable base. How much does a shaft weight?! They swear we're idiots and will buy anything
Don't like it not one bit and for 249 quid not worth it
Btw. Of course i watched the video.
I don't ever need to have this in my hand to know I hate it
so ugly, wouldn't put it in the bag
Not a fan of the looks but seemed to perform ok - I'll stick to my Scotty thanks!
Hmmm not sure about this one does not suit my eye thats for sure
Will take my closer anyday over that
Might have a dabble with the odyssey triple track tho

Rick Shiels already beat you to the punch
Huh? Both videos were released yesterday at 14:00 on the dot mate...
"A putter that you can truss".
Its funny that no one use it in tournqments.....lol
They all stick with there spiders
How much probably a fortune for old tech , Titleist made one of these before and also another company, 😂
Nothing against you James, I really enjoy your videos. But, them putters are awful looking. Best video shot of the putter was when I showed off your amazing looking Adidas shoes
Hahaha no offence taken mate
Willing to be open minded here but my initial reaction is that it’s just weird!
Rome will tell, but my first impression isn’t great.
That looks weird. Who hits a putter off-center? How about practicing instead of buying this.
I think you’ll find most people do mate 😂 but agree with the practice comments!
Nothing new! Just revamped the old Titleist dead centre putter and Ashdon Golf Bermuda triangle putter! The multiplied the price by 10! You can get the Titleist on ebay for £25!
It's a no from me, they do not suit my eye, cannot see many picking these up to try...and they are more like a braced putter not a truss...!
Ugly as sin... even beyond the truss, the blue color scheme is awful...
If this came out on April 1st, it could genuinely pass as an April fool's joke!
What junk is taylormade making
I’ve judged it on it first appearance ... and it’s a “no” from me..
Love you James but seeing all the Adi stuff starting to wonder if this is totally unbiased. I went to a sim fitting where i live in nor cal and these were there and they are hideous. Huge Taylor made fan but sorry on this one.

In six months these will sell for $80 on eBay.
They are without doubt the ugliest putter that I’ve ever seen!!! They also look cheap and nasty!!
Visually offensive putter....I’ll stick to the Scotty Cameron Putter Art 😉
All new putters look ugly but they work.
Hideous, I suck at putting so I'll pick one up in 5 years when it's £10 in the discount bin 👍
Uhhhmmmm nope!
Different 🤔
Ridiculous TBH. And I would not be testing putters when the greens are that fluffy. Too many other things can affect the roll of the ball. Not even going to see the end of this one.
😂😂😂 welcome to the United Kingdom.
@@JamesRobinsonGolf old school putting in the hallway to a plastic cup
Another expensive gimmick, next thing there will be a putter with three lines on it to match a golf ball from the same company, oh there is 🤣🤣🤣
weird indeed
Titleist dead centre putter anyone???
It’s so ugly I’m pretty sure no tour player will ever use that
So they just stole the idea right from ashdon golf. Sucks the big companies just wipe out small owned companies.
Unfortunately mate that’s the modern world we live in
Good review but another terrible looking putter.
Just plain ugly and it's been tried before.
Not for me💩
So ugly and £260 rrp. Going to be a great seller 😭
Well these died a death didn't they
They are all so ugly, its just like driving a Multipla.
These look horrendous.
Ugly.... That's a no
hate the name
