well its a putter, similar to an Ion with a bead at that height?

GIVE ME BASE PLASTIC OR GIVE ME DEATH!

Measurements look very similar to an Ion. What beans can you spill, booter?

 

[wolfmandragon]

That looks super flat top... nice.

Is it for round fingers or square fingers?

yea thats what im saying, its similar to an ion with a bead (you are thinking i meant that as "in addition to a bead") i wasnt saying an ion doesnt have a bead... should i draw a picture?

 

[bbwrenn]

Super interesting. Those specs are almost identical to the Ion... I wonder if the rim will be similar? That seems like the determining factor on if it'll be extremely ion-like or feel significantly different, especially since hand feel is so important in a putter.

well, its flat topped, medium bead(between micro and kc aviar), nice HSS and can handle being thrown hard, fh or bh but not overly os that its a 1 trick pony, i really dig the eternal for throwing right now. thrown hard, it flies straight most of its flight without tracking right for about 75% then slowly starts to fade forward the last bit of the flight. i treat it almost like a slower bobcat as far as utility goes and its easy to range. glide is there surprisingly and not a brick like most moderately os putters. the closest comparison is like a trackless rhyno with a slightly smaller bead or a yeti with a flat top.

Sounds like a medium bead Judge.

I usually won't reference other companies discs but it definitely helps with putters. We've put it in the hands of a few Judge people around here and they all seem to agree in terms of how it flies(not the shape). It'll be a nice putter if you like the PA3, Ridge, Rhyno(without a track) or P3x in terms of feel/shape. Even if people don't end up putting with it, it's an amazing driving putter. I can honestly throw it as far as my Bobcats BH and FH.

 

[MrDarkHorse]

I got to throw it, and my immediate thought was that it was a great driving putter. I prefer a shallower rim for putting, but I would still consider bagging it for drives.

Canadian dealers for Mint?

 

[Steezo]

bump: these coming out soon?

 

[frzemtz]

We will get a chance to have one in our hands the following weekend. They are giving these out as player's packs in the Swordstone tournament. Would be a good addition to hang on the wall.

 

[matrymu]

bump. any news on when these will drop for regular people?

 

[booter]

no hard date yet but shooting for end of august. the protos in the players packs for a local tourney are the only ones available in players packs this weekend. i would imagine after that, the official release should be close.

the mint discs fb groups are where news gets posted first. i dont get on here much since the forums aren't what they used to be

 

[bbwrenn]

Got mine! :clap:

 

[ponder]

Anyone care to chime in on how the profit feels/flies? Is it a single mold ion?
