Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this SeeMore putter, yeah, the one with that “RifleScope Technology” thingy. Sounds fancy, right? Well, I got my hands on one ’cause I’m always up for trying something new on the green. And let me tell you, this thing’s a bit different.
I heard about these putters a while back. I think they came around in ’98, started by some golf guys in California. Their big idea was to make something totally unique. They weren’t messing around with the ordinary putter.
First off, the whole “hide the red dot” deal took some getting used to. It’s not your usual aim-and-shoot kinda setup. I spent a good chunk of time on the practice green, just trying to get the hang of it. It felt weird at first, like learning to putt all over again. But hey, I’m all about putting in the work to see if it pays off.
So, I finally take it out on the course. First few holes, I’m still a bit shaky. My buddies are watching, probably thinking I’ve lost it. But then, something starts to click. I sink a couple of long ones, and suddenly, I’m feeling it. The alignment thing really does make a difference. My putts start rolling truer, and I’m not leaving them short like I used to.
Now, I’m not saying this putter is some kind of miracle worker. You still gotta have a decent stroke. But I’ve definitely noticed an improvement in my consistency. It’s like the putter helps you get out of your own head and just focus on the line.
- Pros:
- Alignment system really works.
- Feels solid and well-balanced.
- Definitely helps with consistency.
- Cons:
- Takes some time to get used to.
- Might not be for everyone.
- It’s not a magic wand, you still gotta putt well.
I remember reading somewhere that Payne Stewart used a SeeMore putter back in the ’99 U.S. Open. That got me thinking, maybe there’s something to this whole RST thing after all. It’s not just a gimmick; it’s a different way of approaching putting.
I’ve been using the SeeMore for a few weeks now, and I’m honestly digging it. It’s not just another putter; it’s a whole different way of thinking about putting. My scores are a little better, but more importantly, I’m feeling more confident on the greens. And that’s worth a lot, right?
