Hope it treats you well!

 

I am not one to shell out praise, but Gene makes some awesome putters and is a great guy on top of it all.

The man definitely has an eye for design.

That's a beautiful putter. Does he have any info on the head weight?

This one was a little on the heavy side around 370 grams.

The head is copper and the neck is Stainless, the AS02 out of copper has a very good feel.

How many pennies were needed to get that copper? With stories of copper theives and the rising prices, you might want to lock that sucker away from both golfers and the public. You may have a putter whose value fluxuates with commodity prices. Looks sweet.

That is outstanding. The copper and the great texture. A real winner.

That texture seems like a great snow alternative. A little patina and this will be amazing.

Great looking putter. So I'm assuming that will eventually develop a nice patina so glare isn't an issue?

Very very pretty. Someday I will shell out for a beautiful custom putter. I just need to learn how to stop breaking them first.

A putter that is in a state of fear will not have the confidence to get the ball in the hole. Maybe you and the putter need a weekend away, to reconnect. ;)

that milling is basically just for cosmetic effect

Good cosmetic effect too.

I would think that missing the milling would translate into a change of feel though maybe the miss of the cavity when off the toe or the heel gives greater feedback.

Wow....very good looking and eye catching. Can't wait to hear how it performs for you after some use.

 

 

If it doesn't work out, I'm sure you can find someone on here to take it off your hands. ;)

 

I like that it's a bit heavier too, and I'm glad to hear the face milled circles are cosmetic only. I've heard mixed things on the technology YES! uses.

What does the circular milled face do? Is it like the face of Yes! putters?

 

I think the Yes! putters have deeper groove patterns which do affect roll to an extent.

Indeed....and supposedly with a center strike they do help put a true topspin roll on the ball, but tests have supposedly shown that on off-center hits the grooves on YES! putters actually put side-spin on the ball making the ball go further off target.
