    Well so far, I've had over 160 looks at the thread but only 7 votes. I'm going to need a few more votes before I make up my mind.

    I voted for gaming it. I see no point in not playing it. (Unless your going to start collecting, which you said you weren't planning on doing)

    Game It!

    Circus Freaks, Hot Women and Beautiful Sunsets are to look at, that puppy was made for the tundra brother, put her in play! If you paid more than a G for her and the value is going to go up then it would be an investment, otherwise let her go to work for you. Like a lot of other OG's here I've got a couple that are sitting on the wall and they're just too pretty to putt with and I paid WAAAYYY too much for them but I can always get my money back and then some when and if I decide to sell them. The truth is Geoff, you will be selling that putter in a couple of months anyway so you might as well get a few rounds in for the hell of it! LOL!

    Game it man. Sure, it looks nice, but it will look a lot nicer draining 10 footers on 18 for a win (or something along those lines). It was made to be played...let the thing fulfill its golfing destiny. To not game it would be like buying that bugatti and then just keeping it in a garage forever. It's just plain wrong.

    Game it.

    There are people out there gaming 4000 009's or 6000 German Stainless Steels...they were made to putt.

    Having said that, I won't be gaming my Ben Curtis or Mike Weir Victory putters. That's what the other 5 camerons are for.

    Based on overwhelming support, it looks like the pansy has found his putter for the upcoming season.

    Thanks to eveyrone who responded.

    And Nat, it was almost unanimous, but you had to ruin it with your greed.

    My driveway probably won't be paved until late summer/early fall, so no way I'm going to be putting on it.

    The grass will still be too soft for me to move my trailer back onto the driveway so we'll putt there

    I say game it you pansy.. why would you even ask..? next thing you know you'll only want to play 9 holes and then go in for a ShirleyTemple at the end of your round.
    Some people are like Slinkies... they're really good for nothing, ... but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs...

    game it ya pansy.

    I really have not had a better feeling putter, than the newport i had before that was rusted, or if you don't like that its easy to keep it clean. Just get in a habit of even having the oil in your car trunk, so everytime you put the clubs away at the end of the round, the oil is there to do it up right there.

    I say game it, and if you were any kind of man you would throw away the head cover and dunk it in water every time your throwing it into the back of your trunk. Remember orange (iron oxide) is the new black!! and its like having impact tape on your putter face since the spot where the ball hit the rusted face will leave a clean spot thus telling you where your making contact on the face or hosel what ever. Boy am I full of excrement . Well Tiger uses his and his throwaway putters are going for thousands so you can certainly use yours, you just need to win more sidebets with your fish, such as me for instance, 2 beers next time

    Lance begged and begged me for days. So I finally gave in. And besides, I couldn't stand to see myself possibly ruin such a nice putter.
