Hi all, I think I talked of this sometime ago but it might still be helpful. I purchased a SRT 2 ball on the basis of their reputation, big mistake. I am reasonably new to golf and did not do the essential research. The putter I was using was a generic $20 dollar job I had been using for 2 years and had become quite proficient at using and I thought the 2ball would make me a super putter. I got it off ebay having not even sampled it in the pro shop ( yes ,a very silly thing to do ). After months of heartbreaking practice, I found I was never going to be any good with it. My whole game collapsed due the fact that even if I got near the hole I couldn't drop em.(and I mean 2 and 3 footers). The problem was my old putter was a offset blade style and the two ball of course a mallet. One toe balanced the other face balanced. I thought I could just get used to it and it would be great. Those who have researched will know there are putters that suit certain natural stroke styles. In despair, I went back to my old putter and after a few weeks was sinking them better than ever. Bare this in mind, my old putter was cheap, shortened by 3 inches, had weight added behind the face and, after checking the face with a straight edge and finding it was corrugated, I filed it flat. Other than the filing it, I made the same mods to the SRT over time, but there was no change, I just could not use it. I realised that I had not just been patching my cheapy I had modified my old putter gradually to suit me perfectly. I learned an expensive lesson.
