Ohhhhh, is that a reflective stamp on that white one? That's what I want. My main putter is my Stormtrooper Anode. Now, I want a Stormtrooper Atom with a metallic silver stamp.
Nope, just the glare from my lighting. That would be a cool combo though!
it was Hyzerunibomber in the Technique forum

Those look tasty, thanks for sharing! Looking forward to how you feel about putting with them.

mvp could make gateway disappear with a electron ion, yet we get the random atom.
dear overmold brothers: please do something that appeals to your diehard fanbase, and no the proton stamp axis does not count. i mean **** sakes.

They're probably trolling you.
Either way base plastic, an understable mid and a straight envy core putter are pretty much the three most requested things from MVP fans.
And we got them all in one year. Maybe next year will have the true DD on the horizon. Though personally I would prefer more in the Volt class.
Putted with these on my practice basket a bit tonight. I like how they fly. They remind me of the Anode some, real straight with nice glide and a forward flying drop. Didn't seem like they took much effort to get to the chains and they grabbed very well.
Going out later this week to putt with them against my 165 putting Envy and a Proxy. Also gotta see how they fly off the tee, didn't have a chance to drive with them tonight.

It could only for the fact that I just switched to the envy from wizards. I was a base plastic or die guy for putting putters. But, the Envy just felt right in my hand, and with soft neutron, was satisfied for putting. Now that the Atom is coming, I see it for putting duties and the Envy for shorter approaches and driving. Only time will tell.

Anyone who has one of these (proto or legit Atom) able to compare them profile-wise to a Pure? Here's my reasoning: The Proxy feels really close to a Pure, and the Atom seems to be almost like the base version of the Proxy. Ipso facto blah blah blah, just wondering if I can putt with some Pures until the Atom comes out to be familiar with the feel.
The Atom is shaped a little different than the Proxy. The bottom of the Proxy wing is slightly concave, while the bottom of the Atom's wing is flat and wider. The Proxy has a slightly blunter feel compared to the Atom.
The Atom surprised me today. Driving it full power, well past 300', I had no issues keeping it straight. I was expecting something a bit more understable.
Once I get my new power supply installed I'll edit together a short video with some drives and putts.

Interesting, thanks. If you have a chance to post a profile comparison of the two that would be awesome.

I think the brothers mentioned the stock run would be a touch more stable than the blue protos but makes sense with the baseline plastic I don't imagine it takes long to get understable as a actual driver...Found it:
There was a small retool, which was to adjust for the processing parameters to allow more optimal quality. However, in terms of the flight, the blue protos are slightly less stable compared to what the production Atom will be.
I pretty much only used pures before ions--short answer... similar, yep'

Came home to a couple Atoms in the mail! Figuring the full release must be on the horizon if I'm getting them already. They feel like sex in my hand. Will report more later.

I don't speak Gateway, but Electron feels very much like Classic Blend/Zero Medium, and Electron Soft feels like Classic/Zero Soft. The flight plate on both has some give, while the overmold seems pretty sturdy.
On the practice basket they fly similarly to the Proxy, but I haven't tried anything terribly long yet.
I'll post some profile comparisons later.
