Deschamps testing program

5 putters, look inside!
Hi everyone,

For anyone interested in trying a Deschamps putter I am now offering a testing program. There are 5 putters available, three RH and 2 LH. They are listed below with pics and specifics.

This will work like the other testing programs. To participate, please PM me which putter you would like to try, your address and email. Also, posts in this thread will be appreciated to keep this visible for a while. A tester list will be compiled for each putter. I will ship the putter to the first person on each list, that person will have the putter for a week, then ship it to the next person on the list and so on. There is no fee paid, simply the cost of shipping to the next person.

At the end all putters will be available for sale to the testers at a reduced price. The Blades will be $140 and the MOI's $190. The last person on the list will hold the putter and ship it to the purchaser (or keep it if they purchased it). If the putter is not purchased, it is shipped back to me. If any tester would like to purchase a putter they can email or PM me. Any test putter can be purchased by the testers, not just the one they demo.

By signing up for this program, all testers agree to:

1) Take care of the putter. Use the provided cover, spray with silicone after use if needed. Do not alter it either (finish, paintfill or trying to bend the shaft).
2) Keep the putter for one week and try it out (Give it a little time, not just a few strokes) before shipping to the next person. If work and life get busy and it is kept an extra day or two that is no big deal.
3) Ship the putter to the next person using USPS Parcel Post level service (5 days, $10-15) with good packaging. If the original box gets damaged, please use another one in good shape. I will ship with peanuts and bubble wrap, this can be saved and re-used when shipping.
4) Post a review or some thoughts on the putter. You can PM or email me this info instead of posting it if you wish.

This program is restricted to residents of the USA and Canada. Shipping a putter overseas is simply too expensive to do in a timely matter for a testing program, especially both ways. I apologize in advance.

So with that, here are the putters...

Tester 1
Blade, RH, face balanced, 350G, 70* lie, 2* loft, 34", antique finish, Ping Blackout grip.



Tester 2
Blade, RH, 5:45 hang, 350G, 70* lie, 2* loft, 34" antique finish, Ping Blackout grip.



Tester 3
MOI, RH, 340-370G, 70* lie, 2* loft, 34", bead blast all finish, Ping Blackout grip.

Tester 4

Blade, LH, 5:45 hang, 350G, 70* lie, 2* loft, 34", bead blast on top with the rest polished, Ping Blackout grip.

 

 

 

Tester 5

MOI, LH, 340-370G, 70* lie, 2* loft, 34", bead blast on top with the rest polished (machined finish in bottom cavities), Ping Blackout grip.

(Full disclosure: I've been gaming this one and it has a slight ding on the leading edge. I'll minimize it the best I can without damaging the mill marks on the face. I can report that it is one sweet putter and I will have to make myself an identical one before it goes out the door.)

Putter #2 arrived today. I practiced with it for about 15 minutes on my indoor carpet green and then played 9 with it.

 

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. When I first saw the putter online a few months ago I wasn't terribly enthusiastic about the 'look' of the putter. In person however it sets up very nicely and the simple lines inspire confidence. More importantly the putter feels fantastic at impact and rolls the ball great.

 

It has a really solid soft feel and a gratifying pong sound at impact.

 

I had no trouble at all with my distance control. Really a wonderful putter.

 

Only complaints, I can't pick up a ball with it and I'd like to be able to get an iomic grip on it although the pingman grip it came with is a solid grip.

 

Thanks for the opportunity to test it out. I'm going to enjoy using it for the next week.
