April 25, 200421 yr anyone ever done this? i saw it done on some show a while back (cant remember what show it was) but they were showing how to adjust the lie by heating one of the bends on an "s" bend mallet shaft. anyways, the only putter ive been able to get to my lie preference has been the tour edge t balance, but i miss too many short putts that i should be making due to funky alignment (you have to aim from the back of the putter with the lie adjusted up since the shaft hides most of the sightline). after shooting a 75 the last time out (while a 75 isnt bad at all, i did miss 2 eagle and 4 birdie putts inside 6ft) i decided it was time to look into a putter with better alignment. it would have to be a mallet so i could do what i saw the tv show. i like the 2ball blade but oddysey says i can only bend it 2*. enter the NC voodoo center shaft. i had tried the heel shafted version when they hit the market but wasnt impressed, this was the 1st centershafted model i had seen. the shaft has 2 slight bends and lines up well. i snagged it and retreated into my laboratory (garage). it took a few tries before i got the "feel" for making the bend, the show said there would be a "feeling out process". its diffacult to discribe but you can feel it and youll know when it bends, rather than flexing. it took 2 tries but i got the shaft to move right where i wanted it. i thought i was going to fold the shaft but it worked like a charm.
