Great shape. I love the attention Byron put into the area where the neck meets the body. It takes hand work to get that on a milled head. Most versions of this style have a little hard step.

Where's 4 of 5?!?! :ninja:

MIA - all the others have come out on putter talk.

This was my first Byron, and my wife is really not happy that I have found another crack dealer. Probably will have him make me at least one other putter this year.

I got my first Byron as a birthday present,,, from my wife,,,, we took the hour drive to Byron's shop,, he was so gracious I felt like a PGA star,,, I asked him to sign my headcover, he was taken back, signed one, he did not like how it came out so he signed another, gave me both in addition to the one that came with my putter,,, wife thought so much of him I am up to 11, last one being 1 of 5,,,

Maybe try that?

I think his is the 5 of 5.

4 of 5 was going into my bag, but change of plans after Byron got a new belt for his grinder. Next putter is my "Game Over" putter as Pure745 would say. It's going to be awesome! A Byron mixed metals like no other ever seen. Can't wait!

Check pic number 20. It's not welded though. Must be bolted in or something?
