I think this is my favorite CI. I love the face stamping and simplicity of it. I wish I could putt w/ this type of hosel. Whats the toe hang 5:30ish?

Great putter.

Thanks for the kind comments. I certainly tend to try and keep my Byron's simple on the stamping front. They are beautiful enough already and I try not to overwhelm the putter or take away from that fact. I was a bit more restricted with the CI-18 anyway due to the lack of cavity stamping but that worked in my favour I think. I'm thrilled with how it turned out.

Toe hang on this is 5:30 yep.

That CI-18 is sweet. I like the clean look from the back with no stampings, etc. It's very classic.

Update to the carbon I posted a while back. Steve now has it after Byron refinished it.

[mickeytbones]

Is that an oil can or chocolate finish?

That is SWEET!!!!

[rymail00]

WHOA!! That looks awesome congrats Willie.

[funkyfedora]

Its not mine anymore. I wish it was. Byron said it is a matte oil can.

Damn Willie you have had, and then gotten rid of some of the sweetest putters I have seen.

[funkyfedora]

I know... The first 006 made for American Sales and a Makers Proof 006. Both are in great hands at the moment so I am happy about that. I am starting to design my next but it will probably be around spring before I can pull the trigger. Hopefully there will be something in the new line up that I will like. I will do a photoshop mock up of what I am thinking. PM me your email and I will send it your way later.

[Thaddy]

What a great looking 006, I love the finish. Mine is currently in the hands of Byron being refinished in Coldstar. Whenever it is back in my hands I'll post some new pictures.

[Tdsjfb]

Not crazy about that weld job, fwiw.

Great looking putter. I like all the stampings and like that they are not paintfilled. What finish is this one?

[funkyfedora]

Just a stab in the dark... Brush polished SS and then double torched?

See I would have guessed copper since they just did a run of solid copper, so I thought this was copper plate.

[funkyfedora]

Copper would be almost pink in appearance. You can see its a goldish color.

[JTI]

Yep, brushed double torched stainless steel with sound slot, i was going to get the mystic pearl finish, but then fell in love with the double torched finish...im just waiting for the inevitable final balance email from Steve, then it will be all set to be sent out to me!

[funkyfedora]

I think the way it is now would look better than the mystic. Nice design.

I agree, it has come out beautifully...even better than i expected, and my expectations were sky high! Im glad i chose not to have too much paint fill

+1 The MP is awesome but just a little to flashy for me. Now if it were a wall hanger the MP is the one for me, but I cant buy a putter to hang it on a wall. It kinda defeits the for me.

+1 No paintfill looks great on this one.

[mattl2787]

That is now my favorite finish on a Byron...was it an upcharge? If so, it was well worth it.

Nope no upcharge at all, i think technically speaking it is a much less labour intensive finish than some of the other finishes, though i would imagaine only less labour intensive in a masters hands!

Bought this John Byron Dale Head last year, best putter I've ever had. Have had a few.... Do one of you know what finish this putter have. Look like "brown chrome" I would love to send this putter for refinishing in matt black and orange paintfill with a new sight dot. What do you say?

[attachment=520904:Back John Byron.JPG]

[gib15]

here is mine, just picked it up the other day at a local golf store. have only had a chance to roll it on real green once but it felt really nice.

Looks somewhat flamed.... Anyway, if you want Byron to refinish it, it is something to the affect of $70. It looks like a nice putter. Just wasn't taken care of like it should have been. Gig15, that thing looks cool. Might kick your Rife out of the bag. Hope you enjoy it.

 

 

I love this thread.

Bump to some of the new people out there.
