Design My bettinardi belt buckle Winning design gets TWO Cleveland 588 wedges

So I am looking into getting a custom buckle from Bettinardi. Unfortunately I dont have a custom design or the skills to do the design. So I am going to offer TWO Cleveland 588 DSG RTG wedges that are in mint condition One in a 53 the other is a 56. I will give you a little info on myself My initals are RJB (coincidence) Would like to use jsut RB but RJB would be fine as well. My last name is Bolt so lightning bolt have always been a joke between my friends and myself. Zodiac sign is cancer and i have always liked the secondary sign not so much the crab though ;). So with that run with the design no restrictions no rules can use all of this info on myself or none of it. Just show me the best and the winner wins two wedges. Thanks in advance cant wait to see what you guys come up with.

How do you like this? I can change it. Please let me know.

I do like the general theme you have going a more defined lightning bolt and maybe a italicized font or a little fancier font however i do love that you incorporated the honeycomb b in there

Apologies for the crudeness, but I don't have surgeons' hands..!
Basic idea was that the lightning "interfered" (or shapes) with the right portion of the R and B.
The J isn't necessary (actually starting to think it'd look better without them..)

EDIT: Here's it without the J!

Here's one I just did...

I can take the "J" out or leave it in... I can move the cancer symbol or take it out.

Let me know... :D

Deemo that is awesome lets see if we have anymore but so far that is awesome

heres my go. i chose something simple that would look great when designed.[attachment=499996:Picture2.jpg]

[attachment=500025:RB1.jpg] I went with a different twist on the "bolt" theme and put four bolts in the corner with the RB in the middle. Just thought you might like a different perspective or idea.

I wish I had a name like bolt that I could design a buckle with. Couple ideas:

NOT to diss anybody participating here, as it looks like some good stuff is coming together...

However, I just thought I'd suggest logoworks.com as an option. My brother just got a name/logo made for his boat and it came out fantastic. The great part about it is: it's a bunch of freelance professional designers, all over the place, competing for your business (just like you're doing here, but...erm...professional designers all). You lay out guidelines for the design you're after, and designers send you their ideas until you receive one you like, then you can fine tune it w/ the artist. Little spendy, perhaps, but less than hiring a designer yourself, and almost certainly better results (since you get input from many designers and can choose the one that speaks to you).

Anyhow, I'm not affiliated or anything, but my bro has used them a few times to create corporate logos for clients with great results, and then used them to come up with the logo for his boat. He swears by them, and the boat logo came out superb.

Thanks for the suggestion man ill keep it in mind for future projects. For this particular belt buckle I would like to keep on going with the way it is now I LOVE some of the designs so far and really want to have the buckle design come from Golfwrx (as it is my first errr second home ).

That top one is the best, great stuff.

top on is amazing

[quote name='claytonstoker21' post='2082984' date='Nov 24 2009, 04:20 PM']top on is amazing[/quote]

Currently the one I am favouring as well as it is personal but also keeps the bettinardi feeling. Helps that we have the same initials

Better make sure they will do it before you get too attached. You can't just get anything done unfortunately.

Hopefully they will I have been in contact with Jimmy a bit and as soon as I get a few designs I do like I will send them over just to be sure they can make them.

They can do most stuff as long as it doesn't infringe on copyrighted material (like logos and stuff). I don't know all what they will and won't do, just wanted to toss that out there though.

I agree, that lightning bolt with the RJB in hex'es is sweet.

Here's another...

What "kind" of logo are you leaning towards? Any info on what you'd like exactly, I can do. :D

The more I am looking at all these designs I think I am looking to incorporate a bit of personal (lightningbolt) as well as a bit of Bettinardi Flair as well. I think one thing as well is I do like simple as im not a real flashy dresser. I still really like your first design as well ( your second one is awesome as well but the font may be just a bit to much for me but obviously you have some amazing skills )

Trying something a little different... :D (Obviously I'll clean the lines up if need be. lol)

definitely some creative designs here

Some great design's submitted.

I think it would be cool to just have the buckle honeycomb milled with a fit face in the center, no letters and nothing else....maybe flame it a bit.

That is an awesome design Idea as well(may have to get one eventually ). Im am amazed at these designs I was thinking if I wanted to flame this buckle or not do not know yet. I am looking for a nice flamed bettinardi putter though

I will announce the winner at 1 am EST tonight so get your entries in even if you already have some throw more in if you would like to improve your chances.
Thanks Again

Ron

Here's one...hope you like it.
