I've been playing golf fairly consistently for about 10 years, roughly the time the "anchored" putters started to be used. In all that time, probably hundreds of rounds at private, semi-private and public courses, both business and personal, I can recall only 6 people I have played with who used an anchor putter. This ruling will not have a substantial affect on most amateur golfers, IMHO, even though the manufacturers would like us to think it will. It would be interesting to know what % of the golfers in TV use them. We see pics of golfers in the Sun and the Villages Mag all the time, and I don't remember seeing many with an anchored putter.
