SeeMore releases Giant FGP putter

Published

on

To improve on a classic, SeeMore went bigger. Much bigger.

Its new Giant FGP putter is 28 percent larger than the original FGP putter, which has been used to win two major championships and more than 20 PGA Tour events.

Like the original, the Giant FGP uses SeeMore’s RifleScope Alignment Technology (RST), which has a golfer “cover” the red dot on the putter head with the shaft at address to ensure proper alignment and hand position.

One of the few differences between the putters? The Giant FGP is milled from aluminum instead of steel. For that reason, it could be made larger, increasing the size of its alignment features for a better aim and making the putter more forgiving in the process.

[quote_box_center]“When putting with the Giant FGP, you are able to feel and see the putter work on the correct path with ease,” says SPi Director of Instruction and PGA Professional, Ted Gallina.[/quote_box_center]

The Giant FGP ($250) has a head weight of 365 grams and will be in stores in March 2015.

    The See More FGP blade is a great putter. Unfortunately, had to take it out of the bag. Visually, it the alignment line was too distracting. Here’s why, if you look at image #4 from L to R, looking straight down at the putter you’ll notice the alignment line isn’t directly behind the shaft where the bulk of the weight is. The line is actually on top of it. When you line the putter up using the alignment line you don’t always hit it pure because the mass of the weight is 1/4 inch below the line. It drove me crazy so I contacted See More (Great people and a great company. They are very responsive to customers) and they said I was correct. They said to simply align the ball behind the shaft where the weight is (looks like a square from address) and it will putt true. It did! However, with the alignment line out of place it was too much to adjust too when playing so out the bag it came. I still have the putter and use it in my office because it is one of the best putters I own. I also decided to keep it because of loyalty to the folks at See More. They are a family business, great people and anytime I can promote or support them I do. I’m thinking of blacking out the line and trying it again. That just might do the trick.

      I have the same putter, so basically you are saying for best results use the shaft ats the sight line and not the actually sight line?

    Is that really only 28% larger? Looks like a lot more

      I thought the same thing. By the way, i thought even the regular sized FGP was chunky, the Giant must be huuuuuuge.

      It is 28% larger in every dimension which gives it 2.5 times the volume.

Spotted: Tommy Fleetwood’s TaylorMade Spider Tour X Prototype putter

Published

on

Tommy Fleetwood has been attached to his Odyssey White Hot Pro #3 putter for years now. However, this week at the Wells Fargo Championship, we did spot him testing a new putter that is very different, yet somewhat similar, to his current gamer.

This new putter is a TaylorMade Spider Tour X head but with a brand new neck we haven’t seen on a Spider before. A flow neck is attached to the Spider head and gives the putter about a 1/2 shaft offset. This style neck will usually increase the toe hang of the putter and we can guess it gets the putter close to his White Hot Pro #3.

Another interesting design is that lack of TaylorMade’s True Path alignment on the top of the putter. Instead of the large white center stripe, Tommy’s Spider just has a very short white site line milled into it. As with his Odyssey, Tommy seems to be a fan of soft inserts and this Spider prototype looks to have the TPU Pure Roll insert with 45° grooves for immediate topspin and less hopping and skidding.

The sole is interesting as well in that the rear weights don’t look to be interchangeable and are recessed deep into the ports. This setup could be used to push the CG forward in the putter for a more blade-like feel during the stroke, like TaylorMade did with the Spider X Proto Scottie Scheffler tested out.

Tommy’s putter is finished off with an older Super Stroke Mid Slim 2.0 grip in blue and white. The Mid Slim was designed to fit in between the Ultra Slim 1.0 and the Slim 3.0 that was a popular grip on tour.
