Those copper putters are something else. I would love to get my hands on one of those!

Jimmy,

What was the cigar total...I know Doug's over/under was 12...

I am sure it was a blast. I am looking forward to breaking bread with you and Nick again in the windy city later this year.

Jeff...I'm not sure what the final number was but Mr.Doug certainly wasn't shy about lighting up

Mr. Doug · « **Reply #53 on:** May 18, 2008, 07:30:35 pm »

actually, I took 15 and brought home 7. So "8 is enough"

I'd have paid $50 for a tube of chap-stick on that course yeaterday. WINDY.

Thanks for the pictures Doug, looked like a very nice time had by all. The copper putters with the Ping looking cavity look incredible. Glad everyone had fun and are home safely.

Any photo's of the faces/sole of the putters: coppers, etc.?

Every time I see this photo I think RJB should mill some nice thermal stainless bear bottle/can holders. lol

Doug, thanks for your help in picking up a putter for me. Your the best...well, 2nd best, Mona is the best.

I had a great time the guys that work for Bob and Bob where fantastic. It was a experience I would not change for anything. Doug it was really nice meeting the guy behind the sites. You and your dad are true gentleman. The studio rocked and Yes I have all four kool aids. O yes also picked up a cooper putter with a smoked shaft and a exotic grip. Thanks to all

At one point there were a handful of Grande Reserva cigar punches - pretty cool looking.

Some Milled Cigar Accessories would be really cool...and i know Jimmy would be first in line for them!

That new cover looks very similar to this one I hand crafted back in January of this year:

RobotDoctor · « **Reply #71 on:** May 19, 2008, 08:58:24 pm »

That cover reminds me of the drawing tests in the TV Guide about 20 - 30 years ago that could be submitted to see it you had drawing talent. Nice cover, Oh Yeaahh!!

Thanks. The interesting thing is that I have absolutely NO artistic skills. I found a good picture on the internet and basically free handed it with a pencil until I got it looking good. I used a ballpoint pen for the outline (big mistake as it smeared a little) and Sharpied the color.

RobotDoctor · « **Reply #73 on:** May 19, 2008, 09:14:13 pm »

NO artistic skill ... hogwash! That is a tremendous freehand!!!

I just got back to Arizona from Chicago. I had to walk since I had no money after the "social" shopping event. I'll post pictures of the two putters I decided not to ship (Tour BB2 w/Bee stings, and the 3/4 tour) tomorrow.

These pictures are:

Now that I'm OBSESSED with Bettinardi putters(just got mine today....a very used BB8 ready to send to Studio B).....I feel like part of a cool club or something.

I gotta make plans to go to one of these now.

What ever happen to this dude Moecat?

jr · « **Reply #92 on:** March 06, 2009, 09:30:19 am »

Almost a year ago, perhaps May of last year, he sent an email to one or more of us to let us know he had tried to deactivate his account and was unsuccessful, that he no longer wanted to be associated with PutterTalk, and would we deactivate his account. His request was honored.

I've been studying up on the Bettinardi stuff the past couple of days and the pics in this thread put me over the top. UNREAL!!!! Looking for my first purchase right now

The MJ putter makes me nauseous, I'm an MJ fanatic from the NC days.
