Welcome to Product Reviews! This is where I will test out different products and review their performance. This week, I will be reviewing the Tru-Roll putter. The Tru-Roll putter has a unique design that features a cylindrical putter head and a round face. According to the Tru-Roll website (www.tru-rollputters.com), there are three main advantages to their putters: an increased consistency in loft, more accuracy at impact, and more forgiveness on mishits. The philosophy of the round-faced putter came to mind when the inventor, Canada-born Sheldon Long, realized that a round object hitting a round object would create a truer roll than a flat object hitting a round object. This putter isn’t the first of its kind, either. The tear-drop putter was invented in the 90s, and another design of the same idea, the Radius Roll, was invented in the 2010s. Personal Review The Tru-Roll Putter is a controversial topic amongst both professionals and amateurs. The strong scientific backing and consistently positive reviews are a seller for some, but leaves a lot to be desired for many sceptics. I conducted similar experiments to those on the Tru-Roll website, and actually had different results. This left me questioning as to whether or not these experiments are reliable, or if they modified them to match the best advertisement for the company. The contact does feel cleaner and the roll truer, however the amount of putts I made didn’t increase when using the Tru-Roll. That being said, many people swear by this product and would recommend it in a heart beat. In conclusion, I can say that the Tru-Roll isn’t for everyone, especially if you don't want your playing partners to make fun of you, but is a product worth trying out.
