Looking for some ideas! Epon irons.

Finally taken delivery of my gift to myself!

Will obviously get fit up for the right shafts - but any of you out there got any ideas on how I might go about shafting/ferrules/grips to make these as pretty as the heads?

Those are beauties man, I’m sure you will enjoy them. As for dressing them up, I always like Boyd Blade & Ferrule Co. ferrules. They are a little pricey but add the bling. With that clean of a head they may be too much though. Perhaps a black ferrule with a single gold ring would do nice.

As for shafts that’s up to you and there are tons of great options but for grips I’d say GripMaster leather grips. Cost a few bucks more but the feel great.

I like the grip master grips idea - have one on an old putter. Yeah, the shafts are obviously fitting dependent. Was also thinking down the line of a plain white ferrule with white iomic grips - though I could be swayed to black on black!

Just checked out Boyd Blade and Ferrule Co - had never come across them! Thanks so much for the tip - precisely the reason I posted here!

" Black ferrule with single gold ring"  Uh huuh your Macgregor roots are showing there man or you have been around me too long and I have rubbed off on ya!----- Sean I am going with DJ on this one those heads are sexy enough with out adding any extra bling--- IMHO you can over bling stuff---- but then again I am the old school black ferrule cord or black grip guy----- And trust me shafting them correctly you will have some buttery feeling sticks there. But I will tell you DJ can be the King of Bling and does some exciting stuff---- I pinned his style "California Funkadelic"----

You know it Stu. I dig them classic or with some bling. Although I always like the ferrules to be black with variations on the ring colors. I haven’t gotten down with the colored ferrules at all, like blue with white rings or similar, just not my thing.

If I was building these Epon’s I’d find a set of black ferrules with either gold or silver metal rings, not just gold or silver colored plastic. Those ferrules with the real metal rings look really high end on a classic blade.

Huge fan of the Personal 2's - just beautiful and so much cleaner than the 1's. I like just black ferrules with a single chrome line and definitely leather grips - that sounds so sweet

That said, DJ does beautiful work with clubs so he knows what he's talking about. Whatever you do - those clubs are sweet. My last set of blades were Endo forged - Saqra 1150. They were designed by a long time employee of Epson. They are amazing and the Personal's are among the best of the best.

Yeah totally agree - love the P2's (the 1 and 3 are not in the same league aesthetically) spent a long time trying to find the right set, and eventually came across a brand new set - didn't expect that with the limited run! A bit of difficulty importing them from Australia, but worth it!

I agree with building them plain - but on looking at the site you've put me on to, you may notice some similarities between this set and my club colours (as seen on socks!)

That’s the best part of building irons, you can customize as much or as little as you like.

If it were me using those ferrules I change the club head paint fill to the color of the ferrule. It will be a more cohesive look.
