I like the harder slicker putters because of a more consistent release. If I can't hit the chains with it it doesn't really matter if it's sticky or not.

Somewhere, in another thread, I read that rec players tend more to use soft putters, while most top pros use firmer putters. Why is that? Would it be because the pros make more longer putts, and prefer a cleaner release from a firmer putter? Do firmer putters give you a cleaner release? I know one of the reasons some people like a softer putter is to prevent roll-aways and the like. Could it possibly be that a top pro feels more confident making the longer putt if he misses?
For me...
Close putts = Softer
Far Putts = Stiffer
Simple as that.
