My putter has arrived!!  It's really really nice!! 

I no longer need to wonder whether a putter is a good fit or not.   It's tailored to perfectly fit my stroke!  

What's also cool is that loft and lie are not just adjusted by bending...  my custom specs are implemented via custom CNC milling programming . 

Thank you Chris for arranging the fitting appointment with short notice while I was in Japan and thank you for the quick delivery as well!

Can't wait to take her out on my next round!!

 Thanks!!    This is their standard bead blast finish.    The other standard finish is a more shiny finish which I believe is pretty much straight out of the millimg machine.  Though the raw finish would have been cool, I didnt want the reflection to bother me on sunny days.  They also have a black finish as an added option.

Of course!!!  I'll have to dig up my notes but think about a full swing analysis done with your driver and irons and imagine doing the same for all variables associated to your putter stroke.   Its interesting to know why some putters work better for you over others!

I am very much hoping that it will become my Birdie generating weapon!

First round with my Benock putter last evening. 

Got paired up with a younger twosome who were actually very good players.     Ironically,  both of them just got brand new Scotty putters as well and it was their first round with it as well!! :)     

I did not bother bringing up my Benock story since I wanted to focus on how my new putter was going to perform for me. 

Plus I did not want to steal their Thunder so to speak...:) 

 

Unfortunately,  the greens were a on the slow side.   So it wasn't really a good condition for testing out putting. 

However, one thing, I think,  is for certain.    "Ball starts off on the line that I intended to hit."  

That seems stupid obvious .. but it was not as automatic with my previous putters.  

With my previous putter,  I would have to adjust and somewhat "hope"  that the ball started off on the intended line. 

That's a pretty good sign for me and an overall confidence booster for my stroke.  

I can actually trust that my stroke will start off on the intended line.     

Feel at impact is just right for me.   Dense and solid but with a sensation of smoothed out edges.  

Geo Galaxy has a bit more raw and direct feel.   

So far so good but need to try on faster greens.

I dig this putter and the milled face. Is it "face balanced" and did you go in for the Fitting too? Id be interested in your impressions.

Nob did you go to Japan or do this virtually?

Nevermind. It's in your post.

This has always seemed to me to best the best process in the whole exotic putter world.
