Dude Where's My Par Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Saw Rhys Davies using this in Malaysia this week... wonder if you flatstick lovers could help give me some more info on the model, price, web links etc. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPY VIP GolfSpy Dave Posted March 6, 2010 SPY VIP Share Posted March 6, 2010 Looks like a Tess. Probably custom or JAS model. JAS Tess models show up on eBay for about $150 from time to time. Value guide link: http://valueguide.pga.com/detail-exec/brand/2736/product_type/206/model/44155/b/Ping/p/Putter/m/JAS%20Tess Ping customer service is very cool too. Call them on Monday and they will know. Volvo Intorqueo All the cool kids follow me on twitter: @GolfspyDave If you are not a cool kid, following me on twitter will make you cool...

Dude Where's My Par Posted March 6, 2010 Author Share Posted March 6, 2010 Thanks, my friend! Only problem being that I live in the UK... but I have my sources, so I'll try and snag one somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My pleasure. The lines on the back do look a bit different on the one you posted, but I bet the JAS Tess would play similar. Here is the link for the Ping contact form. Maybe it will work in the UK and they can help with the search. Good luck! http://www.ping.com/about/contactus.aspx Volvo Intorqueo All the cool kids follow me on twitter: @GolfspyDave If you are not a cool kid, following me on twitter will make you cool...

MmmmmmBuddy Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 We had a JAS Tess at the store for a while. I think It looked a bit different. It had weights in toe and heel. A great putter though.

A great putter though. That is why I thought this one might be tour/ PingWRX only. I think that the tungsten weights show up on the back side as well as on the face.

Addicted2Golf Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 The other problem you'll have is the tour van guys sometimes grind the flange, add weight, sight lines (or remove them), etc. Callaway FT-9 Driver 10.5* Grafalloy Prolaunch Axis Blue Callaway FT-9 Driver 9.0* Grafalloy Prolaunch Platinum Cobra Baffler Rail F Fairway 15.5* Fujikura Motore Wilson FYbrid 19* UST Proforce AXIV Core Cobra Baffler Rail H Hybrid 22* Fujikura Motore Ping I15 Irons 5-UW AWT Ping Tour-W 56*,60* DG Spinner Ping Redwood ZB Putter, WRX Starshot, 35" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addicted2Golf Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 That's really slick looking; love it! I didn't say anything about that to the original poster, but I don't know what's to love; their isn't much to it. But, with putters, beauty is truly a subjective thing.

But, with putters, beauty is truly a subjective thing. There's isn't much to it, you're right... which is why I love it! In a market that seems to be saturated with silly, over the top designs from companies like Odyssey, Nike and PING themselves, it's these classic shapes that I still crave!

SPY VIP GolfSpy Dave Posted March 7, 2010 SPY VIP Share Posted March 7, 2010 I am a fan of this shape too. Cant putt a lick with them, but I like looking at them a bunch.

But most of us suck at putting so they are truly just trying to help. LOL.
