Putter Refinishing Companies


Recommended Posts

Since I can't get a black ER2 from Evnroll, I've decided to send my beloved ER2 out for refinishing for a nice black pvd look.

 

There are a lot of putter refinishing companies out there and I was wondering if anyone had experience/recommendations.

Sorry if I pushed you over the edge on this. Can't wait to see the final result.

Nope, not sure how you could have done that. I've actually been trading direct messages with Evnroll about it for a few weeks. Heck, I emailed them back in September about it they told me that they couldn't do anything at the moment.

 

I've been down this rabbit hole quite awhile already. Have a couple options lined up, just want to hear some first hand experience from people that have used one of these companies.

Have a friend who custom ordered a center shaft wide blade putter from Slighter Golf. Said experience was second to none. They also do refinishings and estimates.

Slighter and BOS are the first 2 that come to mind.  I've not used either personally but I've read enough good stuff about them on the interwebs to recommend either.

 

I personally used Putterlounge maybe 5 years ago and they also did good work.

 

Spryevo completely redid a putter for me a couple years ago as well and the craftsmanship was fantastic.  They use a teflon coating though so not sure if that would affect the groove performance at all.

 

I also follow Wicked Golf Designs (golfwicked), Norcal Putters (norcalputters) and Labworx Golf (labworxgolf) on instagram.  They all have amazing pictures and look like they do quality work.  

 

FWIW Mygolfspy has featured Lab Worx before and had some putters done from them.  https://mygolfspy.com/bestingolf-labworx/

 

Also here's another MGS article with various companies that do customizations.  https://mygolfspy.com/10-companies-that-can-make-your-clubs-standout/?

For me being in Northern California I'd go with Nor Cal Putters. His work looks incredible and his customer service seems second to none in all the reviews I've read on forums.

I had a Slighter Made for me years ago and was really happy with the quality and the service, it was a new build, not a refin though.

The closest one near me appears to be The Golf Garage - their work on facebook/instragram seems fantastic

He has a set of PXG irons that has a Demascus steel look on them. Incredible!

I have a very small ding on my Bettinardi that hurts my feelings every time I look down. Is this something that can be easily fixed or will it take a complete do over?

Looks like a chip in the plating.  Don't think  it would be an easy fix.

That's what I was afraid of.  The thing is for the life of me I can't remember when it happened!  I always protect it with the cover on and don't remember it hitting anything hard enough to chip it.  I guess she's a fragile little thing.  :(

I just saw your pm today (I don't get notifications or emails for some reason) but I'd recommend either BOS Golf or Kyle Campbell at The Golf Garage. If you're going BOS, they have options and Ms. Sherry can direct you in any direction needed. If you use Kyle, I'd recommend the black DLC.

 

 

I've done several myself but I don't do putters anymore because I just don't have the time with my normal job. I do more club builds now because I can do them as my schedule permits and still have great turnaround times.

Absolutely a little late to the party on this but I got a Matte Black DLC finish put on my ER2 from NorCalPutters and it looks awesome!! I also got a matching black shaft too but these pictures are prior to that being installed.

Nope! Still feels great and its still holing putts! I'm finding the black finish easier to line up properly and my stats are backing that up so far. Currently through 27 holes on the year I'm averaging 1.526 putts per green in regulation

I've used Labworx and Josh does great stuff over there. That finish holds up great. 

 

However I will caution you that a lot of the finishes out there are great on flat surfaces but I've seen a couple finishes (from multiple putter refinishing companies) chip/flake on putter grooves. Mine chipped a little while playing a round on recently sanded greens. I think there was probably some granules that got in the grooves and when I went to wipe them off, it chipped/scratched the painted groove a bit. 

 

Just be careful with that Evnroll on sandy greens. If there's sand in the grooves, use caution when cleaning it.

My Evnroll has been at The Golf Garage much longer than I thought it would be. I know he had some unexpected work trips that took time away from his projects, but we're now at 6 weeks when I was originally told 3-4. I understand things happen and his backlog isn't crazy - but I haven't received any sort of updates.

If you're not getting DLC finish when going black you definitely shouldn't expect to durable of a finish. DLC is the way to go

Definitely interested in seeing a full shot of the putter, black shaft and all if you have one to hand.

 

I'm on the cusp of going to get fit for an EVNROLL and this is NOT helping whatsoever OP. I'm gaming an old Scotty Studio Select Newport 2.6 and although I love it, I'm sold by the look and feel of the EVNROLL.

Not done by the same guy as Jlukes but here is mine done in Black DLC with the Black shaft and Pistol GTR 2.0 installed. Feel is unchanged and fantastic!
