What is this tree trunk shaft Ernie Els is gaming?

Saw this highlight of Ernie using this thick shafted putter. Any ideas of manufacturer and advantages over standard putter shafts?

bloodline putter.  It is one of the standup putters; the shaft is graphite, very lightweight, and fragile.  They actually have a sleeve to protect the shaft. The lightweight shaft is to move the weight lower so it stands up by itself.

Those product images don't do that shaft justice, thing looks huge in Ernie's hands.

It is huge compared to a regular shaft.   Without a side by side comparison and going by memory it is probably only a little smaller than a SuperStroke 2.0 at the top and then tapers to the tip.  I probably won't be at MGS until later next week but I will try to remember to take a picture

I was at HQ today and was going to take a picture of the bloodline shaft.   Seems like they have come out with a thinner shaft that is about the same size as a normal shaft.   Figured it wouldn't show you what you wanted to see so I didn;'t take a picture.  It still comes with one of those old plastic golf club tubes to protect the shaft.
