It reminds me of a story along the lines of the importance or lack thereof of equipment...to prove a point to his wife who was complaining that her clubs were no good and wanted a new set, grandpa took grandma's clubs that had been fitted for her and went out and shot his age, a 69...
Sure, if you can play, you can play with anything...but IMO, there is always something that can be done to a club that comes off the rack that can make it just that much better for an individual except for rare cases...
Again, I find it amusing that a guy who is so finicky about his clubs that he grinds his own wedges, softsteps irons and changes driver and 3 wood shafts like bedsheets would be so stubbornly against a putter fitting...unless it was just being stubborn for stubborn's sake...because I will venture that you could play just as well with clubs off the rack as it were and forget about the tinkering...but I understand, as I am a tinkerer myself, and I enjoy the process of experimenting with differing shaft/grip/head/length/weight combination and am convinced that the club in the end of the process performs better for me...but for whatever reason, perhaps including being painted into a corner, you have decided to be against putter customization....
Soft step away my friend...
