Thanks for all the replies. I guess I have been altering my putting stroke to fit the club all these years---which may explain some of my poor putting. I think Yoda hit it on the head with his comment about not being able to fully extend the left arm with the 34-35 inch models. I went to a left hand low push basic stroke after my lesson with him last spring and still struggled at times because I never felt like I was properly extending the left arm---now I know why. Looks like 2006 might be the perfect time to move to move to a shorter putter. And thank you Jim Cook for stimulating a few neurons---I have a Smoooth 7 putter I made last year (34") and has all the weights in it---heavy as a sledge hammer. When I finish typing this I'm gonna' whack 2 inches off the shaft and see what happens--might as well experiment while the snow is flying, and I can always putt indoors! Thanks everybody!
