Putters
Has anyone tries the Yes c-groove or the Guerin Rife Two Bar putters? The commercials look good. Seems to make sense.

I have a Yes Callie and Sophia models in 33" in length with 70 degree lie angles. I believe they do get the ball rolling end over end quicker than other putters. The Callie (Anser style) has a 355gm head and the Sophia
(8802 style) has a 340gm head. Very solid putters. I've tried all kinds of makes and models over the years and I can truly say I've never been happier with my putting when using a Yes. You can get them on EBay for half the price of a Cameron.

I second that..... 'Yes' putters do seem to get the ball rolling much better than a traditional putter. The only area that is unclear from my use of one (Sophia model) is that I had a harder time with distance control. This is potentially from being sloppy about hitting the sweet spot though. I wish they made more designs. I currently use a zen oracle tour, and would love to have c-grooves on it. Even better, I like the looks of the Gaim putter.... that would be a cool one to have c-grooves on. I've tried the Asserta too, and C-grooves were my preference.

Yes Heather
I picked up the Yes Heather model and gave it a spin on Monday. My old 2ball dfx would skip the ball a few times before it rolled. The Heather definitely solved that problem. Even my buddy noticed how the roll was much smoother.

Brian Manzella's podcast of some two months ago said groove face tech is a huge trend and that it works. He predicted the tech will roll out big time.

Goosen already plays one. So does a few more.

The new TM Rossa putters have an "Anti-skid Groove System Insert" (ASGI). Same thing. Personally I can't wait to try out the Rossa Monza Corza.

I recently tested the new 2005-2006 grooved Rossa putters when the Taylormade Tour Van was at our club.
They do indeed reduce the skid and get the ball rolling quickly.
Reasonably priced as well with at least four models available.

I have the Natalie. My putting has improved immensely. I tell the people it is the putter not me.
