Oh my god, I'd love to be an employee

 

Same here, but my bank account would hate me.....

Couple RM Origins at Nike ES store

 

wow that was quick. i cant even guess how much it was there...

ES = Employee Store. They weren't expecting them. Think they got 10 total. $340 price

[Dirty.Birdie]

No just wanted to make sure everyone was taken care of. I may have access to another one. I just need to inquire.

 

True. Still just like to make sure the loyal Nike people are taken care of!!

*sigh* I wish that were the case... :(

Talked to Nike couple times before the Origin release today to double check the LH would be released as well. Woke up early in the morning to order online and to my disappointment and slight depression, only available in RH. Called one of the reps after and he told me there is some manufacturing issue or something and that the LH won't be released until May 23.... I had my weekend and next week planned filled with golf but now it is officially ruined.... :cry: *sigh*

did see on golfsmiths website that the b2-01 is available in 33,34,35 lengths. not sure if thats for immediate purchase or what. was going to head to my local one some time this week. also has it listed for only 299$

Yeah I saw that too. The only issue is that it says it directly ships from the manufacturer which means I would have to wait till May 23rd. Which blows... Yeah I could get the $50 off but I already have a Nike gift card that I want to use :/ ARGH

 

Not true. Confirmed by Nike this morning that the LH version was released the same time as the rest.

 

Thanks for reaching out, Jesse. The Method Origin B2-01 LH was launched at the same time as the RH version. We'd suggest visiting your local Golf Town to pick one up, or having them place an order if they don't have any LH in stock. Thanks, Nike Golf

[TheRed18]

Was out of town this weekend so I wasn't around Friday when my B2-01 was delivered :stink:

 

Just waiting for the FedEx guy to come back by today, all these posts are making me anxious

[Flyers99]

I know this is not for the 2016 models but can anyone give me an estimate of the putter shaft weights for the methods and method matter putters? Looking into getting the black Apollo shaft (especially for the black matter putter) but am unsure if the weights are the same or similar I think the Apollo is 120g if I remember correctly.

[Stephens24]

Well i preordered my lefty b2 from DD around april 1.....still waiting. They sent me an email saying should ship 1st week of May

 

 

[Arpeggi]

Just ordered Fly pro irons!

ARGH even more frustrating that people have seen the LH version and the Nike guy I talked to told me different. Talking to another Nike person right now. Thanks for reaching out to them and getting that confirmation.

UPDATE: This is from the Nike Golf Expert Chat, "Thanks for chatting in today Elijah. As far as we have been told the lefthanded B2-01 is not being released until the 23rd."

So May 23rd is the release date. I'm going to have to wait till then unless they push it back again..

Seems like Golftown in Canada received a shipment across the country. That is where the one I found was.

Yeah the rep just told me that the US won't be released till then and Canada is a different story. I envy you hahaha

No. Velcro

 

Seriously! I need velcro and magnets! I gamed mines this weekend, and damn head cover kept falling off!

[BoogieThumper]

That used to happen a lot with the praying hands cover. At the advice of someone here I held it closed right beneath where the actual putter enters the cover and I felt something sort of "snap" into place. Never had an issue again. Play around with it and see if you find the same thing.

Golfsmith says my lefty b2-01 34" ships may 4th

[edryer3]

I got my origin today and ordered the 353g head at 34". Anyone know if I got the right head. If feel light compared to my Lajosi 355g at 34.5". The box and shipping form do not note 353g custom head. So I don't know.

[DirtShark]

hey origin owners, you might already tried this but take 3 balls and line the in a row and place you origin behind the 3 and then make a put. you can see how hot the made the toe and heel and left the center not as hot.pretty dope to try it with the origin and the 006. you can watch all three stay straight

[caddyshackgolf18]

Am I the only one who ordered the B1-01? I have the method midnight now and liked the look of the 001 Tiger model but hated the dot and the feel. Hoping that with the site line and improved feel we have a winner. The midnight is harsh unless struck perfectly and loses a lot of speed if not hit dead center.

 

Mine is supposed to arrive tomorrow!

Nope I got a B1-01 33 inch and love it.

[DirtShark]

you half circle is a pin that dampens the middle, the rzn rubber part is to compress and make the face lot hotter.

How is everyone liking the Vapor Fly driver? I am thinking of getting one to try up against my LTD. Thanks.

 

Used mine for the first ime on the course yesterday and really like it. I also have a GBB, but for now the Vapor Fly is the one.

Looking into getting the black Apollo shaft (especially for the black matter putter) but am unsure if the weights are the same or similar I think the Apollo is 120g if I remember correctly.

 

Putting that shaft into my b2 matter. I'll see if I can have my builder weigh the cut down Apollo and compare it to the stock shaft. If it's not done already anyways

[nike_air]

kk silver tini s-flex @ ~42 6/8

kk silver & black r-flex @ ~42 3/8

[Norbe5]

If anyone gets the retail origin headcover and doesn't want it, I would gladly take it. PM me.

I got the RORS but is way too light. Just gonna return to Nike.

If only I could keep that headcover lol

I used the Vapor Fly the last 2 days playing and it was longer for me than the LTD, and the forgiveness was very close.

Golfsmith says my lefty b2-01 34" ships may 4th

This is frustrating... Can you follow up and let me know if you do end up getting it before the May 23rd release? I just find it frustrating the more I think about it how Canada has the LH already released but decided to delay the US release till May 23... Maybe that's because I don't know anything about marketing... but still doesn't make any sense, and I get it's a month but what's up with all the possible deceit?

Well I hope you get it somehow someway!

[Philipc29]

I'm in Canada and can check my local Golf Town for some lefty Origins. I can throw them up on eBay for those who want one. Let me know!
