Is that the guy who hated seeing flippers and will never buy Nike again? Haha he should have no problem selling....

I would put his name up for all to see. I have my suspicions, but nothing concrete

Sure am selling it if yall are running your mouth about me. Could care less if you blocked me. I bought one from a member here and it wasnt cheap. I had originally had another guy working on one for me but he said he couldnt get it. Then out of the blue he said he had one on the way. I felt obligated to buy it since he had worked so hard to get it. It wasnt cheap either. So yes I'm trying to get money back out of it..

[wldchld22]

Going to play this thing in Vegas tomorrow. Can't wait!!!

[StarFleetGolfer]

Mine is still in plastic, can't get myself to game it.

[Scratch2Plus]

[GMoney76]

I spent an hour on the practice green today and the 003 is going to the BST!

You must! I also bought a KP1 GS and while it's very nice, it doesn't stand a chance against the 006.

Very cool!

[pagey]

Its now gone from the Nike UK online store so must have been a mistake.

Took mine to the practice green last night.. its OK but thats probably because I dont like the grip but cant bring myself to remove it yet.

[j.a.]

I felt that I was putting better with the MM006 than the MC02W but the latter felt softer including the sound. The MM006 makes a "toc" that sometimes seems harsh no matter that it put a beautiful roll on the ball that ended in great results.

But the 006 is another animal. It feels very soft, balance is great and the sound is nice, not loud but good enough to give you a clue in how you hit the ball.

I'm very happy with the putter. It rolls the ball amazingly even on greens with little imperfections. If the green is good, the ball will roll nicely to where you aimed getting the hole. It is a fine putter. Nike did a great job.

[Odyssey Gator]

Finally got mine today. Simply amazing. I have the B2 01 and hate they put the same grip on both, but haven't decided what to do with it yet. The headcover is out of this world. The quality compared to some of the tour Odyssey and Scotty Cameron is on a different level. Anyone wanting to dump the cover to pay off some of the putter let me know please. Haven't used it yet but love the weight and feel a lot. Hope to use it this Saturday.

I agree, the head cover is amazIng, you can feel the leather smell.

I replaced the grip. The original didn't work well for me. I'm using a Garsen Ultimate which is 55g, it's lighter than the original 68g. Swing weight increased to E2 which is much better to me. I'm having fantastic results with this change.

[cmb71]

^^^ to j.a. The stock grip is an issue for me too... but I don't have a clue as to what I should replace it with. I am going to extend the shaft close to an inch and then throw on a different grip. I have several Iomics on the way, including a model or two I haven't tried yet, in the hopes that I can get an improvement there. The putter head is perfect to my eye and feels great too... soft feel yet crisp enough. Stock it worked well, but I just know it could be better for me after "self-fitting" for so many years. Never tried a Garsen... may have to order one to see what it's all about. Glad to hear you found the proper setup for yourself though!

[Scratch2Plus]

I actually like the Method 006 grip. Let me know if you lads are replacing the 006 grip and willing to sell. I wouldn't mind having a spare sitting around.

[cmb71]

I just find it a bit squishy I guess? Difficult to say why I don't prefer it exactly. And I tried to get one off of the B2/01 I have and failed miserably... technically if I succeed this time I think I owe it to WRX member 'minteq' first as he had dibs on that one (if he's still in need of one), or did I mix that up with someone else? Forgive me if I did guys...

[cota0429]

Order the tour tradition from GP

[Odyssey Gator]

I'm thinking about contacting Nike about the Golf Pride one on the 001. It is similar to the Scotty Pistolini I am used to.

[Odyssey Gator]

Think we are taking about the same grip but just with the Nike logo on it.

Wish they'd do a second release in the States.

You and me both. Maybe one day.

[/quote]

I ordered the GP Tour Tradition midsize and it's not the same grip. It's about 1.5" longer than the 006 grip.
Maybe I should have gotten the standard size? But I thought I read somewhere that it was the midsize.
Dunno...

Let me rephrase that...it looks and feels like the same grip but it is about 1.5" longer than the 006 so perhaps it's also heavier as well?

[Odyssey Gator]

The red method Nike one I pulled off a 001 recently is the same size but says golf pride around the top part and feels different than the one on the 006. It bubbled on me or I would have used it on the 006.

006- 532g
B2 01- 514g
Scotty Cameron 2014 Select Newport- 534g

Same here. I wouldn't mind a spare also.

Right, I was the one that asked for it, if you do get it off ok, thanks.
