Refinishing an 8813 just don't work. Dozens of failed remakes have proved that. They just don't have the same feel.
You can't go by the photo in the Global Golf ad. It is just a stock photo. Contact them and they will see if it's a legit putter. Ask for a photo of the actual putter.Thanks but the global golf is a remake. The real ones have the S and the O joined in cursive. Reverse stamp like the one I pictured or those with 345 or 355 are original. The reality test is the putter face is the exact size of the diameter of a nickle.
There are a couple of the real deal ob ebay but they want what they were worth in the 80's.
refer to the club throwing thread.Refinishing isn't a remake...it's taking the original and making it look new again.
Having a backup for loss I can understand, but what's going to 'fall apart' on a putter? It's three parts, two of which can be easily replaced, and the head is metal. There's really nothing to 'fall apart'. It will likely outlive you and your children.
That's what I was thinking.So you're going to carry two putters every round?
No just keep on in my locker. You are allowed to replace a club that was altered in the course of play.
I should have a new locker by spring. Our club house was destroyed last Valentines Day; gas explosion.
