For me, Tiger says long putters should be banned and Tiger is awesome. Therefore, I think they should be banned.

I golf like two or three times a year with regular clubs and couldn't really care less except I just think it's horsemanure. Whenever in anything I hear it's not the way we used to do things therefore it ain't right I think it's bogus. Sure if it can be shown that use of any particular club or ball or whatever gives anyone who uses its an advantage then ban it. But just some rubbish about the fundamentals of the game being breached. For decades on end and now it's suddenly a problem --- Hmm think maybe Tiger is against it for some reason other than fundamentals --like having not won a major in eons perhaps.
