Shottalk Putter Headcovers: any interest?

I'm toying with the idea of a group buy for some custom putter headcovers for the site. I've chatted briefly with Chris at SunSet Beach Putters and he's agreed to do some legwork for us if there's enough interest.

The covers I'd like to get are the AM&E line. They make some very swank stuff.

At this point, this is entirely a feeler post, but i'd like to get a tentative list of people that would be willing to be a part of the group buy. If it's only a few, then it's not gonna happen, but if we can make it worthwhile to justify the setup costs and shipping, I say we do it. I'm naively assuming costs will be about $30-35 per cover.

I don't have details on what models we can do, but I'm going to start with the Standard Snap Fit Style as the default. It will have the Shottalk.com logo along with the "swoosh" as seen at the top of each page at the site. All headcovers will probably be black, assuming the logo works on the black cover. At this point, I'm unsure if we can do individual colours, but for the sake of ease, let's assume black for now.

If you're interested in something like this, throw your name into this thread and what model you'd like.

Thanks guys. I think this would be a cool way to advertise the site and have a nice cover to boot.

PS...here's a sweet mockup. I'm sure I'll have some proofs that will not even come close to rivaling this. Ours will not have the Seminoles head underneath, nor the white box.

Chris just informed me that you can order whatever model you want, so fire at will. I'll get a running list of what model and colour everyone wants.

Rock

I am in....not sure any of them will fit my center shafted heavy putter....so the snap-fit in black will do fine for my blade.

Dude, I'm easy, I'm in, no real preference. I'll check with the wife and boy to see if they have any interest as well.

Re: Shottalk Putter Headcovers: any interest?

Fair enough.

I have no pricing as of right now, but I don't want to say it's $20 and find out later that it's $32. I'm not really interested if you're out.

At this point, I only want to hear from people that are in. This thread will be long enough as it is, I don't need to hear people that have no interest.

I anticipated a greater number of people that don't see the need, but a small group that will be on board.

Keep 'em coming.
