Is this a thread asking what we think is the best or what we use and is our favorite?

Maybe it should be about how to hold the damn thing.

There are so many choices.

I think the Wizard is the most throwable putter out there. Challengers/Aviars are a good stable throwing choice as well.

For straighter or anhyzer approaches I like the Magic or Soft Magnet (or a nicely beat in version of a stable putter).

For putting, it depends on the type of putt. For push putts I go overstable: Wizard/Challenger/Aviar. For Spin/Jump putts I go for a less stable putter: Soft Magnet/Magic/Ion.

My current setup is Soft Challengers for standard putting. FLX Challengers for throwing and hyzer approaches. Soft Magnets for spin putts and straight anhyzer approaches.

If one of the top pros, if not THE top pro has anything to say, you should give all of the Gateway putters a try. He is dead money from all sorts of distances. He has gone back and forth between Wizards and Voodoos for the most part. I am not sure what stiffness he has settled on for right now, but none of them have ever been soft. You can talk to Dave at Gateway directly and ask him all the questions you would like. I don't work for him or anything, but I do think he is one of the most helpful manufacturers out there...he always seems to find the time.
