Since I damaged my original putter in my accident last week. I replaced it today with the White Hot XG #7. It seems like a decent putter, the two "fangs" as my wife called them, give a similar alignment aid to the two bar. I was pretty impressed, and will post a review when I get a chance to make it on the course. Two other side notes. It will pick up the ball by simply pressing down slightly on the ball because the "fangs" are just less than the width of the ball, and it comes with a poker chip ball mark velcroed into the top of the headcover. I will likely do away with the headcover, as I rarely use them. The face is also slightly thinner than most putters.
I also used the Heavy putter, which is interesting and felt nice, but I prefer a soft insert. The heavy putter is milled, and gives a fairly dull response similar to having an insert. The shaft under the grip is weighted, and feels pretty nice. It also comes with multiple weights. If I ever had putting problems, I would likely try this putter. It allows you to use your shoulders, and the weight of the club to move the ball. I really thought about getting one, although I found the the rings in the back got caught up in the artificial grass on the backswing, and I like to use my putter whenever I can. I thought this may be an issue.
Here is the link, I picked up the #7.
