Prototype of new "Manhattan" model ships for New York City
Read more →I recently met with a customer at Hot Stix Golf in Scottsdale and was lucky enough to watch him go thru their in-depth putter fitting process. He had been demo'ing a pair of my handmades and before purchasing a putter, we both felt he needed to get the exact numbers that would benefit him the very most. Though he does not get to play as often as he would like, he manages to keep a single-digit handicap and has a swing that many would be jealous of. Following his fitting, using my new 2014 Rattler, he made the choice to...

Doing a very limited number of a classic design in carbon steel.
Read more →I was fortunate enough to have worked with a company in the past that had some heads milled out of a Texas facility in the classic style that almost everyone knows about. When I inquired about using some of them for MannKrafted projects, the president of that company was very gracious. He gave me his blessing to create some custom looks on a limited number of heads. This is my opportunity to give the guys who are supporters of what I do, a chance to have a hand in creating exactly what they want, in the style of a putter...

MannKrafted Putters for Charity [PICS]
Read more →In 2010, I was approached by one of the Southwest's top pediatricians, Dr. Dave Curran, and was asked to build a putter for an upcoming charity event hosted by the Children's Cancer Center at Cardon's Childrens Medical Center, in Mesa, AZ. If you know anything about my family, this is a cause that hits close to home and I jumped at the opportunity. I wanted to create something special, something unique and a putter that the winning bidder could be proud to show off in a foursome, anywhere. I started with an idea in my mind of a flowing,...

Custom Putter from MannKrafted- The Process [PICS]
Read more →Custom putters have come a long way in the past 20 years. In the past, the options for custom putters were limited, and in many cases, very expensive. There are several putter manufacturers who are in the custom putter market now. For many people, ordering a custom putter can be intimidating or overwhelming. It is different than going to a golf shop and picking up a putter to play it for a couple of months and then move on to another model. When you invest in a custom putter, you want to be sure it will be in your bag...

Read more →We had an exciting week last week. For the first time a MannKrafted putter was gamed by a Champions Tour player at the Schwab Cup. David Frost heard about MannKrafted a couple months ago and was eager to test out a new putter.

His putting success has continued on the Champions Tour where he is always at or near the top for putting average. Needless to say we were excited to have one of the best putters in the world interested...

Fastest Way to Improve Your Putting
Read more →When you are working on improving your putting there are so many factors that come into play. You could spend the entire next year watching videos of PGA pros showing different putting drills. You could spend an hour on the putting green every morning and afternoon. You could go to a putting clinic at your local course. The bottom line is every method I have heard of to become a better putter often involves a huge time commitment. It is by far the hardest part of the game and one where you don't find too many short cuts. Here...

MannKrafted Hand Milled "Mini" Putter
Read more →I have noticed a lot of my clients lately share the desire to roll a little smaller head. Noticing this new trend for "mini" putters, I have been on the leading edge making handmades in several different sizes for every need or preference. This one is the one that really stands out in my mind when I think of "Cool Putters I have made". It is milled from 1018 Cold Rolled Carbon Steel and the entire putter is either hand milled on a manual mill or hand spun on a manual lathe. I have one of the premier welders in the...
