Certainly makes the act of putting a lot easier. I'd ban it myself, but if everybody has the same opportunity to do it, it doesn't make much of a difference.

Everyone has the same opportunity to use the same golf balls, but they still go too far and spin too much.

Everyone has an opportunity to use drivers with a COR greater than .830 and clubs longer than 48" if they were legal, but they aren't.

For ****'s sake, you can't put side saddle, but you can anchor a cheat stick to your beer gut to calm frazzled nerves.

It turns me into Dane.

I hate him for being an asshole who disrespected the only self-policing sport in existence by cheating on the Asian Tour. He should have been banned for life then.

Why aren't they banning it anyway? Has its use become too embedded among the players and they don't want to cause a controversy or something?

That's the argument. It's a bullshit argument, but that's the argument.

If you have to use a belly putter you can't put. Deal with it. You don't get to dribble with both hands simultaneously if you don't have a good handle with your left.

Fair enough. But the fact that Vijay's always been a single-minded jerk really makes no difference to me.

Agreed. Would be nice if Finchem grew some stones on this issue.

Bump, because MahiMike.

Well I just bought a belly putter myself and I love it. I 1-putted 4 holes outside of 10 feet Friday. I figure if they wanna ban it, I'll take the advantage.

You're a disgrace to the game.

Not like he's using a spin doctor.

I wish Roger Maltbie and Peter Jacobson would just literally suck Tiger's cock and get it over with...JFC.

Which would not make a difference for 95% of recreational players. Anchoring the putter is bullshit.

I mentioned it earlier, but no one responded, so **** you all.
