What we say...
Variable weights allow you to tailor the Benross VMC SV2 putter to personal preference or different green speeds. The alignment system is something we’ve seen a lot before, and it is reliable. But at nearly £70 the VMC is up against stiff competition from ingenious, great-looking putters that cost less.
Performance-wise this is a solid golf club without being exceptional (apart from the superb Winn grip). Maybe this is more of a purchase for Benross fans, rather than a must-have piece of kit for those seeking superb value for money.
The Benross VMC SV2 putter is designed to maximise the moment of inertia.

Fast is ok
Had this putter for a few years now and expect that they are few and far between to buy now. A friend of mine said that if you are a good putter, you can put with a piece of angle iron. Never tried that out but I feel it is true. Paid £35 for my VMC as I liked the look, but had never practiced with it. Not the right way to go about buying a putter but have not been too disapointed. On quick greens I putt very well with this putter but slow greens you have to push too much and I get too many three puts. I use a heavier Calaway copy for that which I only paid £7 pounds for; called a "Gallery".(more like the angle iron!!) I've tried Ping and Yes putters and they are very good as well but when I actually counted my putts I was getting av 32 putts a round with the Yes and VMC and 35 with the Ping. I didn't particularly like the look of the Ping and that I believe plays a big part in choice of Putter. If you play on quickish greens and are a reasonable putter then the VMC is worth a look. Slow greens no. If you are taking more than 40 putts a round I'd look more at technique than a new putter as the one you have got may do the job. Too many people buy a Ping,Yes,Odessey and think the job is done. Confidence builds more made putts not money spent and you can't buy that!!

Great Value
First time I have plumped for a centre shaft putter and although it looked and felt slightly wrong at first, the short putts kept dropping and I am now very comfortable with it. Not had too much time to play with the VMC but the putter is a lovely weight and balanced well with a soft contact, at £40 I am delighted and looking forward to the summer

Putter Stutter
I bought a VMC SV2 from my club pro one evening when I forgot my putter. In a rush to meet my tee time I did not check it out, but on the course I discovered the head does not seem correctly aligned, and I cannot remove one of the variable weights, which seems to be cross-threaded. Obvious quality issue with this one, and will be returned when I can catch up with my pro, who inadvertently forgot to give me a receipt when I paid cash.
