Yeah figured it would never happen so just had to make it happen myself. Was between MackMade and NCW to make me this be seeing as I already have an NCW felt needed a MackMade in the den.

 

The good news is you just have to put a deposit down and pay the rest when the putter is done. So you have 12-16 weeks to get on her good side 😉

I think I posted my Lajosi here or in the Lajosi thread a few months ago & then couldn’t resist & just got my Mack Made

My design, it's no longer 1 of 1 lol.

 

Let me know what you think and what you like between the 2 of them. Also I was curious what it would look like with a line and it's nice but I kinda like mine naked still honestly which is rare for me.

I love that face. Copper aside, that spiral milling is always amazing. Add the copper.....sheeeesh

Got a few new gamers this year. Scotty phantom x 5.5 34inch, with a sugarloaf social club black cord grip. Taylormade spider tour x 35 inch, standard grip, lots of lead tape for swing weight. Might put the same grip on the spider eventually.

Man that Studio 5 sure brings back memories of mine 20 years ago.  I'm not sure if I made alot of putts with it, but I sure loved the way it looked.

Thanks.   The pro platinum finish on the No.5 from the custom shop looks great.

I agree. I've always had a soft spot for those, and in that finish it's even more attractive to my eye.

The Mack Made is cool, but there is something downright SPECIAL about that Lajosi. Awesome job coming up with that design, and incredible execution by Kari.

The Lajosi is slightly smaller & is more firm. I don’t have headweights but with the bigger/slightly heavier head & mid-milling vs the lighter milling on the Lajosi  the Mack Made feels slightly softer(as expected). I obviously wanted the similar shapes but wanted two distinctly different putters. So far really happy with both; we’ll see which one makes more putts. Kari & Josie both came through with great work.

Good to know about the size difference, the Lajosi may be a touch small for my liking, but it's a nice shape. I like the MackMade size actually, not too stubby, not massive a good size for me who doesn't quite like mallets but also opens me to other mallet shapes from Josey.

 

The head weight that's customizable for each person so no worries to get those. But definitely 2 different putters but also similar-ish at the same time, so options for your mood that round.

My issue with that is what I want people don't have or won't get rid of and what I have that people want I don't want to get rid of. It's like a boring Mexican standoff.

Oh no I've taken all of my putters out this year except 1 or 2 so they all get use, some more than others, some less. Only 1 is really a "wall hanger"

[Hunteruu]

I love this thread. 

 

I only have my two now. Standard player in the Sik, and my Coggin carbon that I take out when want a lighter/different feel. I could never bring myself to get a "wall hanger" really... Well, I did once and regretted spending so much for something I was afraid to use and sold it lol. 

 

I'll continue to live vicariously through y'all until I find a specific flat stick that I can't say no to.

I do, anything custom gets played. Anything that doesn't really get played are putters that literally cannot be replaced or repurchased. Kinda like a Svalbard Seed Bank but for lefty putters.

You had my curiosity, but now you have my attention... Examples of said irreplaceable flat sticks please!

It's nothing too crazy, I'm not paying half the prices people are asking for lefty putters but what I have is:

 

C&L Putter - Basically a Black Lab BL-1. Not many lefties were made, Lee has sadly passed away and Chip isn't doing putters that much anymore.

 

Gene Nead Putter - Lefties are extremely rare and Gene isn't going to be making putters again anytime soon that I know of.

 

TP Mills Trad II - This I hate to put into this category cause I love rolling this putter and I do but watch it like a hawk. David isn't making these anymore, won't be making them anymore. I do have plans to have an exact replica made to be played, I won't go into how that will be done right now but it will be an exact copy of mine and possible better with some technology help.

I almost never take out my very first custom from Lamont made me a real beauty with some Stainless Face Inlays, shaft band.  He basically never does either of these. Handmade too.   The shape itself is hard to find. The putter is special to me. I dont want to lose it or have it stolen.

Wide blade? Shape looks amazing, I’d hold that one close too!

Took advantage of a free fitting at ClubChampion and here we go…
