Ray Cook Extreme Aim 3 Putter Review

Ray Cook Extreme Aim 3 Putter

Just bought myself a new putter for Father’s Day. It’s a Ray Cook Extreme Aim 3 and I love it.

I just had time for 9 holes tonite, and after I hit 6 putts on the practice putting green, I headed for the first tee and a quick round with my nemesis, Bill Knapp.

First hole, 360 yard dogleg right and I’m about 55 yards short of the green and chunk my 56 degree Eidolon sand wedge. I pitch it to 5 feet and make the putt. My first real putt with the new baby and I drill a 5 footer for par…. and fall a stroke behind to his birdie.

Second hole, 515 yard uphill Par 5 and I hit a hybrid 4 iron pin high, but it rolls off the left and I chip it to about 10 feet and lip the birdie for a tap in par. Two putts, two good ones.

The fourth hole I’m 2 feet short of the front of the green, about 30 feet out and I putt it to about a foot for another easy par.

Fifth green gives me an 8-9 footer for birdie and I drill it dead center.

Seventh hole I hit a pitching wedge to 3 feet and make the EAGLE putt.

Eighth hole I 2 putt from about 30 feet and the ninth was a misread from 12 feet for an easy par and a smooth 35 …. 1 under for the nine.

Oh, by the way I lost $3 to Bill’s 33. What a miserable sucker he is. I finally putt well and he throws a 33 at me.

As for the putter, I love it. Easy to aim, feels solid, no hot spots, rolls the ball end over end.

I will be a better putter the rest of the year due to this fine putting jewel and my Line-M-Up alignment tool.

Why did the blade putters win so many majors and now they are scorned at?

For my part, I had putted with a Ping Sedona ( blade ) for about 10 years.

I love blades, but I don’t have the talent, the time to practice and the nerves that they require anymore.

I’ve never putted better than I am now with this Ray Cook putter.

I’m not saying anybody should switch…just saying it works well for me, alignment and distance wise.

I tried another BIG OL’ putter first, a Voodoo Daddy and it’s for sale if you want it. Cheap ! could not putt a lick with it.

Make me an offer and we’ll go from there.

Thanks for the comment, Love…love that name, btw.

That’s what a good putter can do for you. For me, a used taylormade made my day and still doing its job. Though I suspect, you may not find bill easy to beat.
