I wonder if it's an oil can type finish that will rust/wear over time. I'm not a big fan of that on putters.

I like it on custom jobs but not as a retail release.  What bugs me about these is they look SO GOOD but the insert is about the size of a ball impact wear spot.  I wish they had increased it to at least a rectangle shape.  I feel like I wouldn't hit the insert all that much.

if Nike would make a solid face putter, anser style, they would sell a lot more putters. They're trying to re-invent the wheel with groove technology.

Exactly.....I know they love the groove technology but with Rory on board now is the time to make similar putter to his 009. Mill it out of solid stainless, put some nice milling on the face, stamp a Nike swoosh in the cavity and one on the face, and a simple NP09 stamped on the sole near the toe area to identify it as their "Nike Putter 09" model. Price it so the avid golfer could afford it and they would sell tons!!!! As you can see I have thought about this way too much...LOL

Agree about those yes antique/rust finish! Those are sharp! I love that Stephanie!

EDIT: The Axis and the Method concept are in a dead heat for ugliest putter of all time.

Odyssey White Hot Pro line?  Did I miss it, or they just weren't available?  Would love to see the full line up.

Thanks.

Really like the satin whiskey finish. Nike stop just adding angles to putter and calling it a concept. Keep It Simple Stupid!

Will absolutely have to pick up the Yes Olivia bullseye putter. Too bad there's only a flange version.
Does anyone know what they'll go for?
