DonM I think that if I could find the right armlock for me

What I did different then what is mentionned in guides and youtube videos to convert a belly into an armlock, is that I measured the required angle the shaft needed to slant in order to press my left forearm. I did put the putter centered in belly position with the shaft vertical and measured the space between the butt end and my forarm when gripped normaly. That was 4.5". The putter being 42", I did the measurement at 41" and that gives arctan(4.5/41) = 6.26°; I did bend the alu hossel by hand and measured with a protractor it being 6.5°, close enough. With the putter head having a loft of 3° that gives a dynamic loft of 9.5°, quit a lot more then the 6-7° that is most commonly stated. Maybe this is the reason the putter feels so natural: having the ball centered in my stands the putter head sits flat and my whole body, arms,... etc are in exactly the same position as with a normal putter, only the wrists have a slight forward press.

      Going to be more of a tomorrow project.
      I get to build myself 3 wedges with steel shafts.

      I really just need to figure out which ferrules I like best. I'm leaning towards the ones with the single silver stripe...

      @LogicalOne thank you!!!

        colej as am I. All this is going on true temper R300 shafts.
        Getting ready to seat the ferrules on the shafts to the proper spot. Boiling some water in the electric kettle now. Tomorrow I will mix the epoxy and once that is cured, I'll see about making sure the ferrules match the hozel perfectly.

          Sorry, I just saw this.
          I think it is 42, but I'll double check tomorrow.

            I did this yesterday, not today. Today is the day I polish the ferrules and double check everything looks good and solid. I already checked the toothpicks on the plates. Those were solid.

            The last thing to do, is to replace the grips... these feel really slick... that will happen tomorrow I think.
            I ended up with a few of those from @LogicalOne, so I'm thinking that I'll put those on there...

              That’s the concept of the Graves Golf putter. I got to try a few putts with one yesterday and I liked the geometry. I’d need more time to be sure.

              Also the BioMech putter. I had one and hated the feel of it. I just went to their website, and they didn’t have any products listed, so maybe they are done.

                  Yesterday I shafted up my STi P, G, and S wedges with DGSL tipped less than R300. Tried them today and loved them. The 9 is shafted with DG105 R300 also tipped a little soft. I think it’s slightly better than the older SL shafts but I have those on hand so let’s do it. I played the SL extensively a few years ago.

                  Today I built the 7 and 8 irons. Here’s the PW.

                  Then there's Lean Lock Putting.

                    More putter shenanigans. Found a carbon steel lefty and decided on a whim I'd shoot and edit a video of the process of doing a refinish. Screencap from some footage.

                      Walterjn that's the after! It was black & rust before. Haven't done paint fill yet. Shaft epoxy is setting as we speak.

                          AdamMH that blue is gorgeous. I had to ask if that was before, because I love that torched coloring.
