I probably should have a good look at the difference between a face balanced and a heavy toe hang putter. Results could possibly vary then. It could also be our eyes telling us one thing and data telling is another. The results here were definitely surprising as I expected a greater toe movement from the toe hang putter. Thanks for watching. 👍

The torque we apply via our hands to the putter is far greater than any torque a putter head can apply to us.

@@SydneyGolfTech how do you rate/compare the tech between DLT and Evnroll’s parabolic face?

@@mikelytwyn3578 golfer launch their putts at different heights as well as miss the Centre of the putter a lot, so both have merit. My preference is the SIK as the Evnroll has very deep milling in the middle and I have to hit the ball much harder to achieve the same distance that I do with the SIK.

Thanks for watching. 😃

It’s actually a really complex topic that needs more investigation than this video alone. I’m glad you are having great results with a toe hang putter. I generally change the hang if the player could benefit from it, not because a type doesn’t “match their stroke”.

@@SydneyGolfTech yeh Thank you i believe you can putt with anything if you get used to it and a lot of success on the greens is down to proper reading and judgment. Much more important and what affects your game if you dont get fitted is the driver and irons.

You should watch my video on putting arc.

Couldn’t agree more, but as we now know, stroke and launch greatly effect pace and pace control. These are factors that can also help with confidence, so shouldn’t be overlooked. I suppose growing up I never had any technology to help, so everything was done with feel. There’s so many factors at play, so I try my best to have a small look at some of them. Thanks for watching. 😃

I agree that looks can play a major role in boosting confidence. It’s great to get a putter that you like the look of and then have it fitted to your specs.

It’s definitely a very important factor.

Absolutely. Aim is the key 👍

@@SydneyGolfTech i think Dave Pelz had a theory on toe hang and impact patterns. Thoughts?

@@alanmacgillivray8286 I’m not sure what his theory was, but I know he’s a short game wizard. I should have a look at it.

I have always thought that the hands are far stronger than the weight or balance of a putter. However, I’m not saying that my data is gospel for everyone, but the head design had no effect on my face rotation or stroke. It’s definitely something I’ll keep looking at. I possibly could have tested a putter with far more toe hang to see if that changed anything too.

@Roenie's Gaming Empire I don’t think it’s hard to override the tiny bit of weight balance in a putter, no matter the length of putt, for somebody like myself with a good stroke, hence the video.

@Roenie's Gaming Empire one of the first things I check in a putter fitting is aim. If the player cannot aim a putter, we try a different head. A lot of people use a line on their ball these days, eliminating the struggle with aim.

Thanks very much.

Aimability is the most important by far, but feel and look are both subjective so they can’t accurately be quantified.

What variables do you mean? One putter is a plumbers neck with toe hang and the other is a double bend to be face balanced.

@@SydneyGolfTech when I put with a high MOI putter toe hang does not make a difference . When I put with a blade I generally put straighter with a 60 deg toe hang as face control is a lot harder with a face balanced for me so maybe blade with max toe hang shaft and face balanced test epically with not so consistent a putter

@@ccmorgan53 there’s a lot of ways to look at this topic. I’d love to see your data.

@@ccmorgan53 Maybe you should putt not put, that might help!! Just kidding. Getting a 3rd putter fitting today (at Club Champion) in 5 years in search of a more forgiving double wide or triple wide blade with greater MOI. (Odyssey Tri-hot 5K blade) I really don't get on with mallet style putters. I've been told by 3 different fitters that I have a slight arc (20-30 degrees) to more of a face balanced stroke. They have used Quintic and SAM putting systems. I've scoured KZfaq to absorb all the experience of golf instructors and researchers and it's absolutely confused the Fuck out of me. A lot of what (SYDNEY GOLF TECH) says resonates with my findings and use of varied putter styles. I play to a 4 HP, but trying to stay with one putter style and stroke. Cheers!!

I’m still happy for it to be used as a noun.

Thanks for taking the time to comment, but if you watch my video on arc or straight putting stroke you will better understand stroke types and better understand the logic behind my comments. 👍

@@SydneyGolfTech I did and I fully accept that there is no such thing as a true “straight back” profile! However, I still maintain your experiment is using different data sets! Chalk and cheese!

@@sadoldgit313 the experiment was about the effect of face balance on a stroke, which, as I stated, has little to no effect. Forgiveness and MOI had nothing to do with this experiment.

@@SydneyGolfTech Thats the point! It should have been because it effects the outcome!

The key to SIK putters is getting the head you can aim, the correct weight and length. Always best to have it fitted.
