Bespoke ferrules

[brew4eagle]

I'm tired of opening BST threads for iron models I'm interested in only to see skittles-themed ferrules.  I know they can be changed, but it's a dirty job.  If you're a real ho, reconsider the ferrule flare.  It significantly reduces your resale audience.

And they're generally priced as if they add value.

Agree with the OP. Hate the ugly ferrules and there are very few that even look decent. Not a big deal and I usually just move on quickly. Its like wedge stamping. Not buying someone else's wedge with their initials all over it. At least on the wedges they price them fairly.

Why do you care? You don’t like what you see then move along. No different than a tall golfer like me having to open every ad only to see nothing is long enough for me as is.

It was meant to be a tongue in cheek PSA for club hos

It's funny, because I almost always like the BB&F ferrules. But definitely don't price that in as a bonus. It is - like virtually every custom aesthetic feature - a polarizing feature, and thus at best should be a non-factor in pricing. Don't try to upcharge for stuff like that.

Ha ha! I thought I was the only one who didn’t like BB&F ferrules. I figured I was just out of touch with the times. 
Looks like there is at least one other traditionalist out there.
