Rife Two Bar Hybrid Center Shaft

Anyone have this putter?

Rife Putters....Top putters....Best Putters

I like my Yes! Callie model but it seems like sometimes I just need a change of scenery. The Callie is great and I won't get rid of it, but it seems like every once in a while it just doesn't set up to suit my eyes... but sometimes it does if that makes sense.

I really like the looks of this putter, but I can't find it locally in any of the golf stores here so I didn't know if anyone had it and what you're thoughts are on it?

I'm interested in this putter too, they have it on the Golf channel all the time now.. like you, I haven't been able to find one locally to test though... Has anyone tried one? How does it compare to similar putters?

I totally understand...my putter was working great and I had no plans on replacing it until I stumbled across the perfect fit last week that I couldn't pass up...I'm going to still play the yes putter I had, but a change of scenery is nice once in awhile, esp. if the club fits well...

Re: Rife Two Bar Hybrid Center Shaft

For me $200 is a lot to pay just buying blind. If I can't try a putter, I'm not buying it. Putting is about feel, and I can't get any feel for it looking at an ad online or watching an infomercial. I suspect that the 30 day money back guarantee still means you are out the shipping cost.... maybe shipping both ways?

Maybe it's just me, but I hate to buy before I try on this sort of a purchase. Too much hassle... but then I don't buy any golf clubs any more without being able to swing them first. Did it once.... never again.

Re: Rife Two Bar Hybrid Center Shaft

I didn't end up getting it. I just put a new grip on my Yes Callie and voila, new putter feel!

I actually have tried the Rife center shafted model before but none of the local golf shops here seem to carry the center shafted model. I definitely wouldn't be purchasing without trying.
