SPY VIP GolfSpy Dave Posted March 15, 2010 SPY VIP Share Posted March 15, 2010 As MSaternus and I await new Byrons in the mail, I just wanted to get the thread ready to discuss these fine flatsticks when they arrive. In the mean time, feel free to post your questions about and reviews of Byron Morgan's putters. Or just post pictures of any examples of his fine work that you own. To get it going, here is a stainless 007 model that he made for me last year.

Funkyfedora Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 This is the first Byron I bought. It just so happened to be the first 006 made for American Sales. I sold it to fund my custom...

Monday Night Football contest. The person closest to the final score won a t-shirt or hat, and if you picked the exact score you won a free custom. Pure dumb luck.

nvgolfdude Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Hello everyone! I am new to MGS, but not to Byron Putters. My name is Dave, and I am a putter ho! I am also one of Byron's reps. I oversee Byron's test/demo program, administer Club Byron, help folks to order their dream putter from Byron, source and sell Byron soft goods (polos, towels, t-shirts, golf bags, head covers, etc...). I have been fortunate enough to participate in the design of the Turf's Up stainless divot tool and have a small amount of input into the amazing Byron putter racks crafted by MSaternus. In a couple of days we will be holding our first every Club Byron Mixer in beautiful Huntington Beach, CA. We have a group of our most passionate fans coming to SoCal from all over the U.S. and even one coming in from the U.K. In addition to a shop tour, putter making demonstrations, golf, socializing, and spending time with Byron, the people at the Mixer will also see first hand the unveiling of the Bombora - the newest addition to the Byron putter line.

I mean, in a bag is one thing, but when you're putting them on the wall, you have too many. Just kidding, Dave. Byron does beautiful work, I can appreciate the obsession.
