Golf Alchemy is looking for your help!

Golf Alchemy is the European leader in golf club refurbishing of irons, wedges and putters. They specialize in golf club restoration and customization with various options such as re-chroming, nickel plating, custom stamping, porting and a wide variety of paint fill colors

They're giving you the opportunity to choose the theme for the next Golf Alchemy putter!!! Come up with the winning design and you will win that putter! (An example, the Walking Dead putter is featured below.)


Post your ideas in this thread. Try to be specific with your design. What graphics do you envision? What colors should be used? Where are the graphics located, etc.?

Have fun with this, think of what TV show or movie themes would look cool on a putter. Golf Alchemy will select the best ideas and we'll make a poll to vote on who the winner will be.

They already have a Dirty Harry and Star Wars themed wedges so bring some new ideas to the table.

This contest will end November 9th at Midnight EST. All members are welcome to enter. Golf Alchemy will do worldwide shipping and will take some pictures of the finished one for us to show off. The putter will be built to your shaft length and grip as well so it will be ready to play!

P.S. At the moment, they only make putters in a blade style as they forge them in the Black Country and hand finish them in Warwickshire (Pics below)

According to GA, don't worry about trademarks and stuff as they are making it and giving it away, not charging money. Golf Alchemy wants to show examples of the quality of work they can produce and they don't sell any with trademarked items.

Ghostbusters themed would be the best. Ectoplasm, blue and red particle streams, as well as the gb logo. I'd buy that all day in a nice center shafted mallet design.

Evolution.

An image like this except one more image added to the end showing a golfer with golf club, the final and most evolved (evolvr? :-) ) of the group.  Something like the bottom image added as the last of the below images or replacing the last image would probably be better... the last three images would be holding clubs.

Bottom should say "I AM THE ONE WHO PUTTS!" instead.

The Golf Evolution logo is actually copyrighted and trademarked. :)

Game of Thrones. Bottom - Winter is Coming or Game of Thrones with Ned Stark's Ice (that's a sword) superimposed. On the sides of the putter face, the iron throne and the thing in the title sequence with the four sigils - Stark, Lannister, Baratheon, Targaryen. Or you can put the Stark sigil on the face and the others on the bottom. On the top of the head? ****ing dragons! Or a quote. Like "Stick them with the pointy end!", or "Power is power." or "What do we say to the God of Death? Not today."

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Sons of anarchy. Bottom would have the reaper in white and say redwood original. On the face it would have SOA in red on the toe and have MC on the heel. The line up line would be red dots like blood. On the top behind the lineup lines it would say samcro in red.

They could do a "Catching Fire/Hunger Games" themed one (it would nicely coincide with the release of the first part of Mockingjay, which comes out November 21st).

Heel stamp: The mockingjay pin, filled with gold

Toe stamp: The Capitol's seal (have the opposite factions on the opposite ends of the putterface), filled with silver

Sole decoration: The Hunger Games in a burning script, painted to look like fire, with a blank path cut through the center by an arrow that is exiting the words on the right side, traveling to the right. Underneath the main writing (The Hunger Games) you could possibly add "May the odds be ever in your favor"

Top decoration: A silhouette of Katniss with an arrow nocked and the string drawn aiming at the phrase "Panem et circenses"

I picture this being in a dark finish similar to what the "Walking Dead" putter looks like just because flames would have a greater contrast with a dark color than with a lighter one. I think this could look really cool, especially if the lettering on the bottom saying "The Hunger Games" turned out really nice with a flame-like lettering and paint job to match. The timing also couldn't be better if they were able to get it done in a month or less, as the Mockingjay movie is coming out about 2 weeks after the end of the contest.

Since I can't edit my last post, it must have timed out, I envision the alignment aid as being an arrow (or maybe multiple arrows in a quiver) on top aligned perpendicular to the face.

The "Carl Spackler Special".

"It's in the hole!" on the top with Carl Spackler Special on the base.

Angry birds.

Alignment line should be yellow dots. The putter face should be the green pig. Sole decoration should be stampings of the birds. Script on the bottom should say Tee it high, Let it fly!

Candy Crush

Alignment line should be striped like peppermint. The putter face should be decorated with the candies in the game. Sole decoration should be puffy marshmallow clouds. Script on the bottom should say Birdies are sweet!

Dirty Harry putter

"Do you feel lucky, Punk?" etched on the bottom.

of course the big 44 mag somewhere on the putter head. Blued steel also of course. Maybe the bottom of the 44 casing on the heel and toe of the face and/or as the alignment marker.

KICK THE FLIP!!

007/Goldfinger theme

Black Chrome shaft and Black or Gunmetal finish on the head, Cordovan leather wrap pistol grip with gold line.

The sight mark on the top at the sweetspot would be a red heart to represent the Penfold hearts ball that Bond played. On the flange, wavy etching like the sight rib on a PPK, with a smooth frosted section for the words "Shaken, not stirred" in gold script.

On the face, the 007 logo high on the toe, an image of naked Jill Masterson face down in gold low on the heel.  "Goldfinger" across the sole, possibly an "Au" or "Auric" stamp somewhere.

How about a money putter?

The entire face could be a $100 bill. The sweet spot could be Franklin's face.

Embedded in the back of the putter, dimes. In the sole, nickel-sized holes could act as weight ports and the weights could have nickels on the top to help a player adjust the weight of their putter.

The sweet spot would be marked with a "$" in gold. On the bottom something like "Pay up!" (You can't fit a lot of text between the weight ports).

At address, all a player will see are the dimes in the back and the $ marking the sweet spot. The rest of the putter will be a dark dark green (almost black) like some of the shades of money.

I would design a putter in the Firefly Theme.

At the bottom of the club i think i would place the Firefly lettering in fire like in the intro.

At the back of the club i think it would be best to have the actual spaceship Serenity (The model is called Firefly)

It looks like this.

And i would include a picture of one of the main cast members. Maybe the captain Malcolm Reynolds(Payed by Nathan Fillion)

of maybe on of the female characters.

Take your pic:

But i think the main sellingpoint would be the Firefly logo, if done nicely with similar effects as in the openingsequence.

My first idea is a B52 bomber or other WWII bomber themed putter. Sorry Des. ;-) It would have a stamp of the airplane on the back. Maybe a WWII era little bomb shell stamp on the top for the alignment aid and writing on the heel of the face or back hotel that says "DROP THEM".

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind.
