Mack Made Putter Review

I have a Mack Made showing up any day. Your putter is a thing of beauty. Hope it treats you well on the greens

Pretty cool first review! Although I will have to give you a little crap about writing the review BEFORE actually using it on the course. I'm excited to hear your feedback after using it on the course and more specifically after about 20+ rounds with it. I feel like after the "newness" wears off and you are using it on a regular basis you can learn a lot about a putter and will likely find something you'd want different next go round. Hopefully it's dead on but as a putter ho, let's be realistic here, haha!

What's the head weight on it? Surely that's not 356g? If those specs listed on the headcover are dead on that would probably be the coolest headcover I've ever seen.

Where is Mack Made based out of?

Agreed. I’m going to use it tomorrow and Monday. I’ll report some prelim results back. I think the specs on that headcover are just generic and they all say that. I asked for approximately 350 gram head weight and it feels about like that...maybe a little heavier.

Ill tell you this, I absolutely love my TP Mills Nellie Wings, but this Mack Made is even nicer from an indoor rolling perspective. I honestly didn’t expect it to be as nice as it is.

I think Mack Made is on the border of Alabama and Tennessee.

I have a mack made putter that I bought it is insane the detail and the time he puts into the process it felt great on the course about a week ago i am still amazed by the color etc.

That's the stuff right there. What a beauty. Hope she treats you well.

Mack made is the real deal. I’m in Huntsville Alabama and have met Josey and seen several of his putters in person. His shop is in TN very close to the AL border.

I had him weld a flow neck onto my Scotty Cameron 5W. The quality of his welds are seriously phenomenal and at a bargain price comparatively. He sent me progress pics along the way and even a cool time lapse video when he heated and bent the neck.

The milling on his putters is gorgeous. Last I spoke with him he said he had several head shapes programmed already and could customize them any way you want. He could also create a headshape from scratch. Anything you can imagine he could program and mill.

Another of his headshapes

Not a huge fan of the Hudson Wide shape/design just doesn't speak to me but man I can sure appreciate the work and quality on that putter, his interview with Flatstick Focus Podcast was a good one.
Also @Stephen1125 that shape you posted is nice.

I just saw this. Very nice and congrats. Your putter specs are on the cover?

Do you mind sharing how much this cost here or via PM pls.

Haha. I almost opted for this one over the Hudson Wide. It was a little too similar to my TP Mills Nellie Wings, though, and I’m trying not to duplicate styles in my collection unless it’s a generic anser-style head. Here are some comparison photos between TP Mills Nellie Wings and Mack Made Hudson Wide:

That’s a nice head shape. I’ve been following Josey and Mack Made putters for a long while now and he’s up to some pretty cool things. I know people keep buying Mack Mades because he keeps posting new putters on Instagram. I have no. 78 and that one above is no. 140. I would love for others to post their reviews (balance, roll, sound, etc.) of his other putter shapes. Mine rolls great for a larger, heavier head. Wonder how the lighter ones roll...

Yeah seems like a lot of people are happy with his work. I like his stuff as well just there isn't a shape I love that makes me want one but this more classic shape could be one in the future. Just want to see more examples and more reviews if possible. There are a few putter makers like this, really good work, lots of purchases but not many reviews.

That "Jack Daniels" sole engraving is so cool!

I’ve only ever seen one of Josey’s pieces sold on here, then subsequently sold on eBay. That’s quite a collective feat for all of us putter ho’s. Just in the past month, I’ve seen a Byron and a TP Mills bought, then posted on eBay within a day. Haven’t seen that with Mack Made...yet.

Yeah not seeing a lot of putters from a certain maker for sale is a good thing I guess. But the eBay resale seems to be happening a lot, I've seen it with some LH putters as well. Guess they try for more money, or less PMs asking random questions.

If I may. %95 of my putters are made with very personalized customization. And I kind of like it that way. I get a sense of pride knowing that I am creating something for someone that will keep it forever. 

What is the price range of your putters?

Newest addition to the stable:

Newest HotRod in development. "The Boss Notchback" Boss and Notchback are both Mustang tie-ins. 

Getting closer....

Newest HotRod in the garage. 

I saw The Boss for sale a few weeks back I think any reason you decided to move on from that or just wanted something new?

Also I really like this one, not a huge MyDay/Zing fan but this one I'd definitely give a roll if it was handed to me.

Love this dudes work.  Eventually I’ll pick one up.. going to have to sell some junk first.

I cut some corners on The Boss and am just unhappy with the top sightline. I'll keep it but The Boss is likely just to be a conversation piece.

That's fair, hard to try a new sight line sometimes and if you don't like it a simple line ruins a 800 putter. 

I want to try some topline alignments again just too risky. 

I put my name on the list and sent in my deposit, I can’t wait to watch Josey work his magic!

Sent my Hudson down to Josie to have the flow neck swapped over to a plumbers, can't wait to get it back.
