TP Mills - Post your Putter

[toddba11]

Midshaft Softtail, clean sole, with blue stamping and sight dot.

Naked Klassic and Bull Elf.......

This is my newest Mills that will undoubtedly get some play this spring. The model is a Skinny Nellie made with the Swiss German SS. Not sure how it's different than the 304 David has used but the feel is incredibly soft.

 

The design is confident look with the wider blade, feel is really buttery and solid. I didn't intend on another Mills as the stable is quite full but I am celebrating the birth of my first grandchild "at least that's my excuse" hence the pink paint colors.

 

An added bonus is Davids new headcover design, comes with a cool key chain HC if you want to use it for that.

what finish is that? And I love that headcover! I was just given a basic black one

Ahhh, it looks like we've got ourselves a good ol' fashion Skinny Nellie-off:

 

Here's the one I recently got from David- it ended up being a GSS version. Funny that my headcover is even slightly different from oneaugusta's, but I agree that the keychain was a cool throw-in!

But wait! It gets better...

 

So I was talking to David one day about shafts and I happened to tell him about some of my old Spalding TPM putters, especially my baby- an VIII that I restored the wood on the back and torched. So he says, "Ya know, that wasn't the first model that had wood included." And he proceeds to tell me about the "Elite" series, which prompted this thread: http://www.golfwrx.c...se-pics-inside/

 

So my box with the new Nellie shows up and guess what else is in the box??!!! That's right, he told me to replace the wood, send the head back to him for a professional re-finishing, and then he'd send it back to me so I could be the new, loving owner of this collector's piece! Some folks were nice enough to share some pictures of the Spalding version, but this is the only one I've seen stamped "TP Mills".

I think the one I have is the one you had made but had the wrong site-line. I hope you like yours as much as I do mine.

 

Finish is called torched Soft-blue

Just heard a mention of tp mills on golf channel during the Sentry, anyone catch what was said?

[AKHx03]

After reading this thread I’m pretty excited about finding a Mizuno TPM 4 here locally. Hopefully I can pick it up this week.

[toophewbirdies]

In the works TP#1 from David.

 

Stainless Steel with a flamed finish. Looking forward to it! :)

You just cannot go wrong with a classic blade like the #1. Great choice of finish and I love David's hand work on the flange, looking fwd to the in-hand pics. :-)

One of my favorites, feel is unbelievable. Going with a bullet sole?

November Oscar........... aka no. ;)

[sm_watts]

I just sent David some of the old school pencil shafts that I had been hanging onto, you guys should ask for them :)

 

Hopefully I've got a soft tail coming up soon with one of them!

[sm_watts]

And here it is:

 

Wide-flange Softtail in original black ox finish, with the very elusive pencil shaft. How elusive, you ask? David was out of the older, softer style so I sent him several that I had stashed away and he used one building this putter! He's got three more, so better text him right away...

That is a lovely putter! Best of both worlds with a wide flange Softy - get out and sink some! :-)

Don't know if I posted this one, but is a special Ming of the Mills/Odyssey collaboration, that unfortunately never materialized. It's in David's "Blue Sapphire" finish.

 

 

 

 

[toophewbirdies]

My latest Mills addition is a #1 in Stainless Steel with a flamed finish.

 

David put a Midsize leather Mills grip on it and it came with an amazing White/ Black leather cover.

Toophew,

 

I LOVE that One, and in the same vein I must post the putter that has begun a rapid descent into the TP Mills world for me. Just too similar to yours, it is a gorgeous Swiss German Stainless rendition of the classic shape, with my favorite face milling, the fantastic flamed finish and just overall detailing that blows me away! The pics don’t do it justice and it’s become my instant gamer. I have another new Mills up my sleeve for another new post soon as well, as a teaser ;)

 

PS Don’t mind my ever so amateur photography skills. Also I can’t figure out how WRX rotates the photos when uploading. Bear with the n00b, the putter is still purrty.

That's a great looking putter! ;)

 

Roll it well. When I'm posting a pic, I email this to myself in a somewhat smaller size, open it on my desktop. Then open the pic and rotate it, even if this is not really needed.

 

After this the pic, always seems to be correct size up. Hope this helps.............

[ClayJ]

@toophewbirdies what is that center of gravity tool called? The closest thing i can think of is a plumb bob?

Thanks! Means a lot coming from a putter forum veteran like yourself :)

 

And thanks for the tips! I will give that a shot next time. I do usually use large size images which might be jamming it up.
