Another black putter with a twist


Recommended Posts

So I finally found a blade styled anser/ Newport putter that suits me well and it's the evnroll er 1.2 ,I played it one round and I just seemed to make more Birdie's with it than anything I had 3 Birdie's that were over 10 feet ,one was 20 that I usually miss or come close but then i made many par putts within that dreaded 5 ft range, now to my quest to make it black lol I played two rounds before u sent it off,lol

 

So I've always gravitated towards the black putters at the stores, they just look better to my eye but the evnroll didn't come in black so being a I go all in guy I had to find a black finish that would not change the feel and last and not wear off, something like that cobra forged black dbm finish

 

So I looked into black oxide, torching, Caswell blackener and they all have something I did not like about them whether it was too thick or wore off fast etc.

 

I'm a watchsmith and I have done pvd and dlc coatings to make watches like panerai and quite a few Rolex subs/gmt look like tool watches, but back then pvd would wear easily which is the look that many of my customers wanted and it didn't change anything enough in the metal so I could put it back together easily but the dlc was much stronger but also thicker so tighter bezels in watches would not go back on so we didn't use it that much  

 

so i contacted the company and discussed options for my putter and I was wowed that they actually have a  "layered dlc" that was stronger than what I've seen before which was really tough and it is also now thinner than what I've used in the past here is what I was told

 

Layered DLC is as hard and even harder in some cases than natural diamond

The dlc problems in the past was how it would stick to the metal but this problem was solved by the use of multilayer coating, it is also used alot in camshafts in high powered engines

 

So I was like when can I send it to you, lol he said send it now and check it out I was like how much? He said just pay the shipping you have always been a good customer to us consider it a favor, but I had to do the other work which was removed the shaft and remove the paint fill

 

So it began last week and I got it back today, it looks awesome,I will send after pictures when I take them later on20181105_190222.jpeg20181105_190214.jpeg20181105_190234.jpeg20181105_191853.jpeg20181105_191846.jpeg20181105_191901.jpeg

Congratulations man. I had my Evnroll finished with a DLC and it looks incredible. I gamed it all season and the finish still looks brand NEW. Incredibly durable.
That's awesome to hear, got any pictures? I think I'm going to use a dark paint fill but it looks incredible like it is, actually much better than my Scotty black oxide putter

The dark paint may make it murdered it more with a little pop

I like yours, I'm just not sure about painful yet, lol I like the non paint fill but some graphite black paint would look cool to, what do you think, I do like your red but I'm going with black shaft black leather grip and black headcover lol

I think the dark paintfill looks great and if you want to leave it all black the dark paintfill would be my choice.

Now that’s a cool way to make it yours. Enjoy! I hope you don’t have to use it very often!

All black would look pretty cool. Even a blue would look good or a silver. The silver would be classy yet show you what brand putter it is without taking away from the black.
Silver was a thought, still pondering ,I bought some called graphite grey, it's had a little metallic in it and darker than silver I'm not sure what it will look like I guess I will soon

That looks like a really nice finish. I like it without the paint fill, but agree with others that a metallic paint a little darker than the finish would look bada$$.

Looks amazing, how's the glare from the sun? I'm going to give the ER2.2 (is that what they're going to call it?) a roll when it drops to see if a plumbers neck suits my stroke better, and I'd like to ship it straight to someone to finish rather than all the way to Hawaii and then back out. The finish on my current ER2 literally blinds me. I don't like wearing my shades while putting but I actually can't with the sun lasering me eyes like a reverse Cyclops from X-Men.

Thanks man,No glare , tbh that's the beauty of the dlc black it's not real shiney but not as black as oxide

If you do decide I don't mind getting it done, but only if it's new I don't really refinish putters with dings etc.

That looks really nice. I'm a big fan of a subtle paint fill.
