    I swear those Artisan Putters are the most beautiful putters I have ever seen. I like how he has all the different finishes and the way he mills the face. I love my Scotty but would drop that thing in a second to put an Artisan in the bag.

    If your fancy off-the-shelf major brand clubs are not custom-built and fitted, your homemade WITB is krapola.

    If your fancy off-the-shelf major OEM brand clubs are not custom-built and fitted your homemade WITB assortment is second rate.

    If your fancy off-the-shelf major OEM brand clubs are not custom-built and fitted you might as well be swinging clubs from Walmart … your homemade WITB assortment of love clubs are third rate… ya can’t be proud of that.. 😀

      Well Blake that tape job has worked for Tiger for well over a decade so I would say its pretty damn good. Where is a video of your work I would like to see how you think is should be done!

      I don’t see the problem with it. Tape went full length of grip, then they trimmed it off.

    I’m not really familiar with the company, but they seem like great folks, people that are committed to excellence and see something bigger than themselves. I’d love to give their wedges a go.

      You would love to have their wedges fitted to your exact specs… they would be beauties.

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

on

In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups in our forum.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

  • PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
  • driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300.  The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length.  I am playing a Ventus Red 70.   I play 70 grams in my fairways.  I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee.  When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time.  So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck.  The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
  • JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”
