Milkmanmike01 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Why does no one know anything about burke putters? I heard they are milled at the same place as Bettinardi. They feel like top quality putters, way better than Scotty. Does anyone have any insight or personal experience with them? I feel like I'm the only who has.

GolfJunkie302 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Probably because nobody plays them on Tour, so they don't get very much publicity. They aren't included in any tests (Hotlist, Club Test, Most Wanted, etc.) either.

Milkmanmike01 Posted May 29, 2018 Author Share Posted May 29, 2018 I wish mygolfspy would do a test. I have 4 of them. I need to get rid of a couple. But no one has ever heard of them. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there are several boutique brand putters, if you will, that should be tested but aren't. They only test name brand putters because those are the ones people will buy. People will not buy a putter they've never heard of before. Popularity is worth a lot when it comes to the golf equipment market.

null Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Is there any tech in them that makes them different from other boutique putter brands or are they just another pretty boutique putter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk I'm not sure how known Carbon putter where before MGS included them in their Most wanted blade putter test a few years ago, that's how I learned about them, heck most people still have never heard of Carbon putters as they are online only and not in retail at least to my knowledge.

They are definitely nice to look at, but if MGS did a full review and test for every boutique no-tech putter that was out there they'd never have time for anything else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll test any putter out there so long as the company has a the ability to produce enough putters to meet demand spikes if the putter were to test well.

deejaid Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Ah, the real problem with boutique anything; the ability to get a fair price when it comes time to sell. I've been down this road a few times with some guitars. I've had some beautiful guitars that would blow away any Gibson or Fender, but without the big name, it took forever to sell them.

Just make sure you are buying a well known boutique brand. You could buy the finest putter/guitar/watch etc in the history of mankind and if no one knows what it is or why it's valuable, what have you got?
