z-man Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Those are the only pictures that have been published so far. I knew what it looked like but had never seen any pictures.. If I would have gone to the mixer I might have in loop on this one.. Great looking putter. I don`t think the 303 GS will be available but you never know. You will be able to choose from a variety of necks just like the Channel Island [email protected] or [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Saternus Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 This looks phenomenal. I really like that the tuna milling carries over from the face to the "cavity". Follow me on Twitter: @MattSaternus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Saternus Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Thanks for the additional pics. I think the round neck looks the most "natural" on that head even though I'm usually a plumbers neck guy. I'd really like to see some address pics.

Funkyfedora Posted March 20, 2010 Author Share Posted March 20, 2010 I would definitely snatch the Plumbers neck up if I had the chance.

With the round neck, I think he can do pretty much anything he wants to, but changing neck placement could also be good for people who like a certain look (more centershafted, etc).

SPY VIP GolfSpy Dave Posted March 20, 2010 SPY VIP Share Posted March 20, 2010 I'm usually a fan of the plumbers neck, but that other one looks great too! Ultimately, I think that the curve of the neck matching the curve in the cavity is the most visually pleasing. but if plumber makes you sink more, then aesthetics are not the key concern.

In this case yes, the curved neck flows right on down to the club head. My putter is a Newport 2, which is the more boxy version, so the plumbers neck looks better to me in that case. It's all situational I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
