Heyyyy...you might have just stumbled across a new cottage industry there, B&D. That looks really cool!

You could do custom driver paint jobs a la goalie masks.

That was 1 of the hottest/longest drivers on the planet in it's day. Nice job.

So did you paint brush it, or air brush it? Just curious, wondering if i can get away with out an airbrush since i don't own one.. But its an awesome idea, i would love to have at my driver..

Dude, I'm telling ya...that is AWESOME. You should really look into doing that as a business. With new drivers costing $400-$500, you could market this as 'Pimp My Driver'...!

 

And I'll tell ya another market to tap with this - with the white drivers being all the rage, you could take someone's old driver & paint it to look just like one of the TaylorMade white drivers...at a fraction of the cost!

Or...if I end up with a white driver someday because that's all they make, you can paint it black for me!

like the cleveland classic, only truly this is classic. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *my golf club thirst has just been quenched.*

post #17 of 28

Those extra ten pounds are right where I like them because that driver is almost to sexy to play with in public. Metaphorically speaking.

Nice job!

 

Have you caught it a little high on the face yet? I did a custom paint job on my hybrid before. Bronze metallic with tons of coats and tons of clear on top. One hit a little too high and the chipping began...
