hiro matsumoto mz-07

[supo]

THIS is a bold statement, but i think i might have found my putters for the looong foreseeable future.the never ending rotation of putters might be nearing its end.

the different tack ive gone in recent times using big bladed faced putters, the scotty detour, the guage design aluminum.., scotty futura. old golden bear aluminium, (with some good results.) has changed irrevocably from last saturday.

That axis eagle 1 that is advertised on the home of wrx . has been my gamer and its s been fantastic, first day of use , i hit one eagle , and 2 birds, all solid putts to make them on slowish greens ,was the best putter that suited me ive hit in years.

ive been gaming that for several weeks without anything near taking its place......... till now..........,

i was browing the putter section and i noticed behind the cavalcade of used scottys, a reqasonably newish copper faced putter,curiosity called and i picked it up " hello there what do we have here." . the matsumoto mz-07, in perfect condition. ive had a cpl of his older ones before and wasnt really hooked, so i played a bit with it , said what the hell its abslutely beautifull anyway ill take it. played it sat and made 3 birds in a drunk -a- thon friednly compey and then said HELLO, this is staying.............!

ive used a cpl of japanese putters before the Yamada milled springs to mind but couldnt get them wired, loved the look and feel, but on the course they didnt do it, this is the complete opposite. its smaller bit more flat lie, and the feel, kinda lightish, didnt like the feel, but the look got me ,on the course though without a shadow of a doubt , the crispest feeling putter ive hit, ( HANG ON, I KNOW i havnt tried that golds yet! ) but ..........,seriously this thing is absolutely superb ,the greens wre running about 11, they were slick and in superb condition as good as greens come really and i was knocking them stiff all day, the only thing was the grip was in taters so it down at nakajima sans now getting the brand new iomic putter grip on it .

im a changed man, im not prepared to sell the axis, thats still got the bag position on slower greens but on fast slick this was utterly fantastic.

well worth looking at folks well worth it!

ill pop up some photos tom.
