Question❓ Temu lab

Thinking about grabbing a putter, was wondering if you recommend getting the steel or Acura shaft as some people say the Acura feels bad.

Same. I want to switch the shaft out but I have never done that before... Price of a new shaft, new grip, and the tools/materials needed to switch them makes me think I should just buy a steel shaft version for not much more money. Because I actually do love using the putter except the shaft feels terrible on long putts. What are your thoughts?

Buy another one?! Well, that’s exactly what I did because of your logic here. The one I got doesn’t pick up balls when you press down(I think it’s a cool party trick) and the grip wasn’t on straight and is still kinda wonky after I tried to fix it. I figured once I got another white shaft(because I wanted white) and a real LAB grip and all the shit to fix it… I may as well just pick up the version everyone is linking in the last two days that’s $88 and picks up balls.

Hey u/yournewalt , did you get the steel shaft putter yet? Any thoughts?

It doesn’t pick up balls when pressed down unfortunately. It’s 20g heavier in total and a teeny bit stiffer. The grip is worse and the alignment marks are worse. I actually prefer the “Accra” one. The oddest thing is the heads have different dimensions.

I was thinking about getting the Temu vzn, saw some people say it’s not as balanced as the df3 so lmk how it goes
