The Rathbone - Polished One-Piece Prototype
350g. 3 loft / 70 lie. A true prototype of a one-piece design with no face insert. This putter features a pipe neck with a 4:30 toe hang and an awesome soft yet solid sound/feel. Feel is subjective but this is definitely one of the best feeling shapes we make.
The Rathbone shape started as a custom project that was a mashup of a Rossie style and a high-toe style. Each successive project has seen clients request tweaks to the shape that have taken it more in the direction of its Rossie roots with the thick topline, flange curves, and alignment scheme being the dominant features.
Due to its shape (particularly the thick topline), the Rathbone is a perfect candidate for a 3d printed one-piece putter, with ample space for us to manipulate placement of mass to dial in feel while enhancing MOI and forgiveness. This is a true prototype - one of the pieces produced as part of our product development process.
3D printed in stainless steel infused with bronze (will patina), hand polished, and ready to grip and ship at your choice of length and your choice of grip.
Shafted with a chrome KBS CT Tour 120 shaft. Shaft upgrades available. Comes with an Irish tweed headcover.
