@labgolf So we will not receive the appropriate LAB Mezz.1 putter cover with our order and will have to pay for the correct replacement one when they are ready???  Paying the $750 for a this Proto putter without the appropriate putter cover doesn't seem right to me.  I wouldn't think I am the only one thinking this.  

Its appropriate. Its actually real leather and hand made in the US. Our cost on them is about $50. We had to get something made in the states in short order because of the issues in China. Its just not specifically shaped for the Mezz. Just big is all.

I would agree with this sentiment….

I’m not happy if you are giving those of us who preordered the huge 2.1 cover. Is that the one we are getting? I get supply issues but passing them on to your most hardcore customers who preordered day one is crummy. Especially when you said the regular release of the Mezz in January will be cheaper and now probably have the correct cover. Why did I preorder a Proto again?

@labgolf I agree with MattUtah.  If it is an DF2.1 putter cover that you will be shipping along with the new Proto Mezz, just put a sock on the putter and deduct $50 from the order.  Or cancel.  I am hopeful it is not a 2.1 putter cover.

 

@labgolfI’d rather no cover with the putter too. Just wrap it well and then send the real cover when it comes in. I don’t want another massive 2.1 cover, I already have one with my 2.1. 
 

I also would rather just cancel my order and wait until January for the regular release if this is how you’re going to handle this. Having “Proto” printed on my putter isn’t worth me shelling out an extra $200.

Its not the 2.1 cover you have. Its the same construction as the USA cover. Works great. When you get it, keep it in good shape and I'll exchange it for you. I am sorry it's not ideal but it is what it is. for the record we DID eat the $50. The price would have been the same if we had gotten the proper cover in time. The real cover costs a fraction  of what this one does and we agree it would have been lame to pass the increased cost on to the customer. This was the best solution we could come up with short of just not releasing these. If you are a DF user, you may just want to keep this cover and use it for your DF and get a Mezz cover when it comes in.

It isn't an extra $200. It's looking like about $50. If you wish to cancel because of the headcover, I understand. you can reply directly to your order confirmation. and they'll get it going.

This sounds fair.  Thanks!

Eh its a proto. They probably could have named their price really. I see no issue with it.

Then name the price and sell a whole package.

 

Its like when restaurants sell small portions to keep the price reasonable.  Give me what I want and tell me how much it'll cost.  It's infuriating.

Huh? Not following. The whole idea of a “proto” (correct me if im wrong) is the opportunity to own something that is limited before a mass release of a final product…if you want the whole “package” just wait until the mass produced one is ready. Thats how i see it anyways. By the way i usually stay away from anything proto or first gen as there always tends to be issues or things that need to be addressed.

And fingers crossed, we may get proper ones in time.

 

Wanted to say. Maybe just me , but the proto testing giveaway might be the most popular of its kind here in a long time !  Are we getting close to seeing the picks ?

Will get  it out on the course today and report back about performance.

 

The head cover is nice quality, but definitely too big. Will need a replacement when the proper ones arrive.

 

The alignment section is actually a light metallic/silver color. Looked white to me in the previous picks. The real-deal looks much better.

Thanks for the photos @HoganHO.  Looks pretty close to the size of the Exo7 which really has my interests up.
