I've had my custom shop Mil-Spec for about 7 years now.
I originally bought it as a 340gm 35" model from eBay. It was in terrible condition and the seller was kind enough to send it straight to the custom shop with my order number.
What arrived a few weeks later was a stunning putter - completely restored with my name stamped on the front and a custom shop stamp on the back bumper.
Unfortunately my putter got wet one round and the greens had only recently been cored as well so were quite sandy.
My bad - I didn't wipe it clean as well as I should have and the putter ended up with rust spots and was IMO ruined. It wasn't but perception is reality right?
Fast forward to this year - my golf instructor also designs and build clubs. So I ask him what he can do for me.
We ended up deciding on a new stepless shaft at 34", a blue and white Iomic grip and to have the putter bead blasted and then re-paint-filled.
Well I got a text with some photos and we decided to skip the paint fill as we thought the naked look was awesome.
Here it is - looking forward to getting it on my hands next week.
Next job will be to make sure the lie is correct.
