I love my versa 7 wbw. It really takes a lot of the guessing out of my putts and gives me complete confidence over the ball. Only thing is I wish I ordered it 1 degree flat as I tend to pull it a couple of times a round.  Anyone know of you can have it adjusted?

I spent 15 minutes with the #7 Versa WBW at Roger Dunn today and I didn't miss a putt. This stick impressed me, and I couldn't leave it in the store, haha..  Of course, right when I was really feeling really comfortable with my NP 2.7.

Put a White Hot Pro #7 in the bag on Wednesday and proceeded to shoot my best round of the year, largely in part because I felt like I knew what I was doing with the flatstick for once. Had a chance to break par, but miffed a wedge on an approach on 18 to shoot even.
Missed some GIR's which makes the putting stats look better, but 27 putts for that round. It's been a long time since I've been sub 30 for putts.
Distance control was really good. Honeymoon heaven for me right now.

Just got my White Hot Pro #7 and broke par at the Warren Golf Course at Notre Dame on Friday.  Putter has amazing feel and is extremely easy to line-up.  Great grip on it as well!

I think the the thing is repulsive but those boys make money hitting balls and I pay to hit balls so what do I know

It's all personal preference nothing more nothing less.

Just got my #7 BWB.  I was originally for the WBW but the problem I had was on sunny days I preferred the contrast of the BWB against a white ball as it just felt more natural.  Words can't describe how much of a difference this putter feels and this is before I play on Friday.

Got custom fitted for the first time ever after reading forum posts over and over again.  And let me tell you I was SHOCKED at the results.

I had a Ping Anser 2F that I used in high school and a year after.  Only got the putter because I saw all of the pros using that styled putter.  Oh to be young and dumb!  A couple of minutes into the process and it's obvious what I was feeling all of these years ... basically the toe was in the air and the loft was all wrong.  Huh.

I tried the Ping Anser Scottsdale TR (pro's selection) and the Versa (mine) which I said felt more natural when I demo'd it the week before at a different course.  Sorry fellas but I quickly denied any attempt for a Scotty Cameron as I hate how that thing looks, feels, etc. After about 45 minutes of fitting, adjusting loft and lie angels I was told thanks to technology that I had a very small out to in putting path, I tend to skip the ball because of the loft issue I was having with my now old putter, and the problem with my speed was because I had a slow tempo swing on the forward path which was making my putts die into the hole/leave it short rather than the 6'' past type speed.  And despite all of this I was placing at a very high percentile which felt awesome to a 30 year old who just got back after 9ish years.

Basically, for the first time in my life, I knew exactly what I needed to correct and how to go about it because of the custom fitting process.  Everyone needs to get custom fitted, and I don't mean at your local brick & mortar "store" but at a golf course you trust via professionals with a legit machine/process.

So anyone have any drills for speed/distance issues?

take a lesson .  I mean if you are having this issue, you can look at how solid and pure your strike is first and for me, this equals a lesson with a solid teacher.
