Creating WORLD-CLASS Putters by Hand

[@mrwibbly]

Its been really awesome to see Logan progress over the years. I have had a few of his stock series and was lucky enough to get a full custom from him. Its great to see him being recognized by the big names in the game. He deserves it. Incredible drive, artisanship, and attention to detail. His success is well deserved.

Proof that obsession wins every time

[@jimlahey3919]

Well, obsession and hundreds of thousands of dollars to invest

[@atreyuwings]

Most restraining orders suggest otherwise

[@23poptartman]

When I saw his bins nicely labeled "Scheffler, Woods, Korda, Morikawa, Fleetwood" I knew he was him

[@brianperticari]

This guy embodies what passion is. Love it.

[@Par2Pixel]

I swear this is and always has been my favorite Golf Channel.

[@davidgolf3245]

I am a collector of his putters and got one from first batch, waiting on his second creation so I can get that one too. Love your work Logan, thanks. His next putter should be pot inspired since he is in Humboldt County. Now there's an idea, you are welcome.

[@BB-vy6ig]

He's still working through Scotty/Titleist original design inspiration.

[@Mark_4_Now]

@@BB-vy6ig correction, he's working through Ping, Mills, Moore & Bettinardi "original" designs as inspiritation, like Scotty does.

[@BB-vy6ig]

​​​@@Mark_4_Now fair enough. I'm just secretly over here hoping he rips off the del Mar/ oddysey #9 in the next release. Seriously though all we are missing is a circle T stamp and a $400 embroidered headcover and the world has another Bettinardi/SC. Not throwing shade on that, there's one in my bag. I just don't want to pretend this is something that's never been done. This story needs to be one of taking classic designs, applying slight modifications, slightly different stamps, and shitting it out like it's art when it's really a carbon copy of what's already being done only at smaller scale. That said, I want one.

[@Mark_4_Now]

@@BB-vy6ig The explosion of intrigue in Logan Olson & Tyson Lambs putters is their attention to detail in the creation of bespoke, 1 off custom designs. As we already know most of these artisan putters will get limited play if any at all. That's why it's imperative they make limited runs for the layman, maybe even a Del Mar version. Your style of putting is complete opposite to mine, I'm a face-balanced no neck blade kinda guy(Bettinardi BB-14). The only advancing of better designs in putters i've seen in over 25 years is Lab Golf & Dave Curry Designs. May your Del Mar dreams come true!

[@BB-vy6ig]

@@Mark_4_Now I couldn't get that lucky! Maybe I was a bit hard on Olson. Seeing some of the custom stamped, welded neck (though I do love this look), twisted neck stuff on the website puts off real SC custom shop vibes. I since found his Instagram and I'm a bigger fan of the bimetal insert stuff, some of the less audacious grained/treated metal work. Respect, now I'm imagining some of these takes on a Del Mar inspired shape and I want one even more. I'd never heard of Dave Curry, but looking at his website. Really interesting stuff! I'm ordering one of those damascus steel divot repair tools right now.

[@glenj.taylor2938]

I love this channel more and more with each video y'all put out, thank you for that. Mr. Olsen really has a good thing going and I respect him for it. Given my own interest in golf, design, machine work, etc, I'm also rather envious... but in a healthy way. I now have another thing I look forward to being able to purchase someday.

[@5790kevina]

Awesome story! Keep up the great work, Logan!

[@AM-hk3uw]

Good luck to you, great to see an up and coming guy forging a path.

[@Faced1111]

i have been having thoughts of doing this recently as a hobby/career, but this guy took it to a level i never thought of, wish i could afford one.

[@robertoalvarez2777]

Will have to try at some point…well done Logan !

[@lifeofchristopher]

GMOB! Love seeing ya. guys on here! fantastic piece!

[@Hospey]

Really dope and inspiring.

[@salesone8615]

Man…. I love this channel

[@5borogolfco]

i want one baaaad now. great vid ty

[@jaredhernandez7629]

It'll be wild to watch this video in 20 years

[@xanderpiatt8815]

I love this I would sell Olson putter company putters at my MC sports store when I get it started.

[@jameo1095]

I like the old bulls eye putters, I wish those would come back.

[@skunkwerx9674]

What a great story

[@murraymacarthur6853]

What a legend!

[@robertsjolund449]

Mr. Stevens!!!! He's the man!!!

[@krusher74]

They look like every other putter on the market.

[@L0NGRNGE]

Impressive work. Not really made by hand though in a 5 axis-CNC.

[@lt.squinky552]

I love his craftmanship and he seems to make good stuff. But it makes me wonder what's 'wrong' with his putters, Scottie had one and has gone on a tear without it, Nelly had one and is going on a tear without it, Collin had one and dropped it, Tommy tested one and dropped it, Rors was seen testing one but he hasn't used it, can see scrap tubs with "Woods" on it, never seen him with one. They're good putters no doubt just makes me wonder

[@rubenlievens2680]

Yeah the part about scotty using one was a bit weird, but I guess they are more of an art piece than a truly functional putter like a spider or even a df and mezz. As more technology has gotten in putters you see more and more pros switching from blades to mallets and stuff. And he doesn't really talk about testing his designs. rather he talks about creating them and while they look georgeus that doesn't matter if the balance is off.

[@Bawkzers]

I was looking for this same comment. A lot of pros used em for 1 event and dropped shortly after. Not going to stay in business long if there's no performance and tech behind the putters.

[@PixlPutterMan]

You can also read a lot of horror stories about his customer service on GolfWRX Forums

[@seanprendergast38]

How do we contact you? But I am in South Africa... I would love to have a custom made putter... centre shaft mallet. I have a stock version but to have a custom made putter would be epic

[@ChiTherapie]

lovely

[@GregCoconut]

Sadly Scottie isn’t using that putter anymore.

[@ceerstar851]

I want a job like that. Where I can just go to work at 3 AM if I have an idea. And the money I make depends on the effort I put in.

[@edgeprobability]

Then become self-employed.

[@cartermahoney7349]

I need to save this video for when I win the lottery lol

[@hernandezmarkie7382]

How much is 1 putter 499$? Over and under

[@e1paco]

over i have an olson putter before he got as much traction as he has now.

[@cevadk]

What's up with the "Woods" box?!

[@chrisginoc]

🐅

[@Kyrothes]

Dream to have one day to pass on to my kids

[@ElieAnquetil]

This is engineering and jewelry. 😮

[@kramerdesignco]

i think scottie used that putter for a day? darn

[@coln4242]

lol I mean really? It’s cnc’d lol. It’s not by hand @skratch anyone can do cnc lol. Draw lines. I still only know of one company to still do it by hand that’s 2 dot and good luck getting one of them.

[@bloatedsodium7301]

But is there anything proprietary about the putters that the big boys haven’t done?

[@rileyblomenkamp391]

Willy Wonka of putters

[@shaggyseth97]

Almost 900$ for a putter come on guys I can putt just fine with a 75$ one…

[@superstripes7646]

Creates world class putters by hand…..video starts out by showing 5 axis CNC machine!

[@cartermahoney7349]

My dumb adult brain wants to know how he makes enough money

[@glenj.taylor2938]

It says on his website the first batch of putters were $850. So, if sold a few hundred to 1,000 or more then he's in business. Also, he said his business started as a "job shop." If you don't know what that means, it's where someone or a company needs something designed, or made, or manufactured in small enough quantity, then he gits er done. He then started his putter business. I think it's awesome!

[@cartermahoney7349]

@@glenj.taylor2938I agree it’s super awesome. And I guess it depends on how many he’s making. I assumed it’s only a couple a day at most. And rent on that space plus paying for those machines is probably over like 30-50k a month?

[@brushedaluminum]

Little bit awkward that as soon as Scottie switches away from your putter, he becomes the best player on the planet.

[@FactualHottakes]

Your gay

[@hernandezmarkie7382]

2500 for a putter thats greed

[@ryanpayton4700]

His putters are custom hand crafted, highly functional pieces of art. He can charge as high as people are willing to pay for his work.

[@ezimman]

Zero mention of selling the business to TaylorMade.....awwwwwk-ward

[@scruffmcgruff21]

Why is that awkward? good for him lol

[@oceanroad1584]

He makes putters. So. 900 dollars more, artisan nonsense for less than the price of two putters ,i could have joined my dads golf club. Skratch golf aint eletist my ass.

[@matherace]

Hey I’m sorry for being honest but I would have watched this video if you would’ve gotten to the point more directly. Wish you the best!

[@BCHonea]

Bro, you’ve read too much Rand. You don’t have to copy your predecessors. Be original

[@jimlahey3919]

Putters. The most overrated scam in golf. If you can’t roll a true putt with a $50 putter, a $500 putter isn’t going to help you. And vice versa. I putt just as well with a 1980’s ping as I do with my SC Newport. Putters are the quintessential scam in the world of golf. Look at those good good predators. Charging teenagers $300 for a putter. Preying on their fans

[@kramerdesignco]

Weird take. Some people like the finer things. People that collect custom putters know they aren't gaining performance. Confidence can come from address.

[@lurkerlew2136]

no ones expecting them to make you putt better. some people like to invest in items that they enjoy, whether its for aesthetics, to support creators you like, or simply cause you like the feel. keep putting with your 80's ping and let people spend money on what they want.

[@prestonsarlo]

Where in this video did they say his putters are better a 50$ putter? It’s just a dude that has crazy skill in engineering design and machining and he loves what he does. Not a scam

[@vswhat]

What a godawful take. This is like going to someone's home and complaining that none of the cupboards do anything different than the ones you grew up with, so why'd they spend $50k remodeling their kitchen? Well, some people like midcentury modern, some people like ultramodern, some people like a rustic cabin feel, and some people need it to fold away perfectly because they live in a 600 sqft tiny home. None of them will help you make better food, but when you step into your kitchen and know it's exactly how you want it? That comfort and confidence is literally making your life better.

[@themuscovyducks]

It's not a scam, in this case and other companies, the putters are art work. Also, the small batch is always going to be more because not only is it time cost but materials as well. If someone knows the price and is a willing buyer then that's their choice. While it's true that no putter will make someone's stroke better, there's nothing wrong with free market economy of selling clubs for a higher fee.

[@alksjda]

def only something you can do when daddy is rich.

[@GillyBillman]

By hand? I see CNC lol
