Looks nice but I would really like to see the finish in person...mine is slightly lighter and I love it so I'm sure I would be a fan.

I like the way the channel frames the ball but personally would like to see an alignment aid but that's obviously personal preference.

If I understand the technique Serge uses to bond the necks and I was curious if this neck could be braze welded... Not sure if the grade of brass Serge uses can be brazed as I understand it is somewhat dependent on the composition of the brass.

Is there an option for a sound slot to be milled into the head? Triple slot maybe?

Personally not a fan aesthetically of the square neck and would be interested in seeing the other necks available.

Will there be an option to handwork some of the sharper edges out? Been really liking some of the hand worked smooth and rounded toplines coming out of Byron morgan's shop lately.

Just missed out on the testing of the new model so hopefully give some feedback here so when i order mine I have fewer questions....haha!

As always great work Serge...as I've said before my HT is in the bag and will very likely be there for a while...look forward to seeing this new model come to fruition.

Jeff asked for black and wanted no alignment aid(s).

The head is brass and the neck is aluminum. Aluminum has a very low melting point; even with brazing I would be a little concerned. Plus it would look like crap and sloppy IMO. The glue joint is very solid.

No sound slots. The flange is pretty thin and the resonance would be way to much. Everyone seems to love the feel of my putters so I want to leave feel/sound aspects alone.

For sure I can blend and round things out. Just let me know and the head can be milled a few (3 or so) grams heavy and rounded back down to weight. I can do the same with the necks as well.

I'm glad you like the HT.  :friends:
