We all know putting is a game unto itself. And not necessarily in a good way for some of us.

 “Frankly, most of the best golfers I know legitimately hate putting,” Ben Hogan once said.

But what if understanding what the best putter is for your particular stroke type could help you hate putting less? You might even come to love this important aspect of the game!

There are tons of putters available to golfers. You have Scotty Cameron putters, Odyssey putters, Evnroll putters, etc. Whether new, old or pushing the technology envelope, there is one that best suits your stroke type.

To help you find that magic wand, our mission today is to identify the best putters for each stroke type.

There is a lot of cool gear in the golf world that doesn’t always fit into Most Wanted Tests or Buyer’s Guides. You still want to know how it performs. In our We Tried It series, we put gear to the test and let you know if it works as advertised.

What We Tried: FootJoy MyJoys Custom Golf Shoe Creator

Your Custom Creator of Joy

Dave Wolfe– Though I mainly talk about putters, I also spend too much time playing with online golf gear customization tools.

Do you like your golf shoes classy or sassy?

When it comes to customizing your golf gear, we are living in a golden age. Gone are the days where customization was limited to bending the club and choosing which black grip you wanted.

These days, you can build golf gear as unique as your swing. If you want a pink putter, you can have a pink putter. While adding a splash of purple to your TaylorMade Stealth 2 Plus driver will not add yards off the tee, that added panache could add joy to your game. If so, then I say splash away, lords and ladies.

Speaking of joy, customizing golf shoes is also a thing. To be fair, it has been a thing for a while for FootJoy. Today, we are going to explore FooyJoy’s updated and, I’d say, upgraded MyJoys custom golf shoe design interface.

Jordan Spieth withdrew from the AT&T Byron Nelson on Monday with an injury to his left wrist, raising questions about how fit he will be for the PGA Championship next week.

The "Coliseum" is a nickname for the 16th hole at TPC Scottsdale, which is a par-3 hole that is famous for its lively atmosphere during the Phoenix Open golf tournament. The hole is surrounded by a large grandstand that can hold up to 20,000 fans, creating a "coliseum"-like atmosphere for players and spectators alike.

The 16th hole measures 163 yards, and it's known for its relatively simple layout, which makes it a great spot for golfers to make birdies or even a hole-in-one. However, the hole's design, with its circular green surrounded by water and bunkers, can make it a challenging shot, especially with the added pressure of the enthusiastic crowd.

The "Coliseum" at TPC Scottsdale has become one of the most iconic holes in professional golf, and its unique atmosphere has helped to make the Phoenix Open one of the most popular events on the PGA Tour.

What better way to celebrate Mom than with a thoughtful golf gift? Trust me. She has enough bathrobes and fuzzy socks to last a lifetime. What Mom really wants is an excuse to hit the course with her friends, have a few drinks and bump some good tunes.

About a month ago, I posed an interesting question: Will it golf? After an overwhelming response to our first article, I’ve decided to continue my search for more non-golf products that might fit the bill.

Are there products designed for other sports that can hold their own on the course? I’ve made it my mission to find out.
