I have a Circa 62 with the black oxide finish. I wiped it down etc after each round...but it still rusted up pretty quickly.


SC is willing to refinish it with the charcoal mist finish. Anyone have experience with this finish?

he does ok work... expensive for what you get... worth getting rid of the putter rust though (he'll reshaft with a pretty standard shaft, and throw in a new shaftband (wow!)

quality is good, probably a month turn around time

there are other companies who offer many different finishes for a cheaper price

i already own the putter. they are refinishing it for free under warranty. I was just interested if it takes the same care as properly taking care of the black oxide finish. (turning the headcover inside out...wrapping the head in baby oil'd towel etc).

Yeah, it's completely ruined. It won't ever look or putt right again.

I'll take some of that action.

I was wondering the same thing about the finish as well. I'm lusting for a Red X 3 in that finish and didn't know how hard it'd be to maintain.

I too had a circa 62 no 3. I was constantly putting baby oil on it an wiping it down. Never got one with the mist finish but I think they look cool and hold up well.

Can you coat the inside of the headcover with something that will help.....not saturate it....but just a light application.

I don't know....that may be a bad idea....introducing something like baby oil into your golf game....would make for slick grips later on.

The Charcoal Mist finish is a plated finish so it is by nature very durable. I'd go for it.

you can liberally apply silicone lubricant to the putter then place it in its headcover right away, this will let some of the extra lube seap into the cover

      Sad tale.  Both the A's and Raiders.  IMO, cities shouldn't be building stadiums for MLB/NFL teams.  But that's the world we live in.   DAY 3:  30-min range session with irons and wedges.  Working on follow thru -- no hooks! 🙂

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By saevel25 ·

      Backswing: Body is responsible for taking the club around. Arms are responsible for making the club go up.  Downswing: The process is reversed. Weight Forward So, your arms need to do stuff. Set up to the ball. Do not raise your arms at all. Rotate your body as you would in the swing. You will notice your hands stay down near your right hip. So, how does the club get up? Your arms raise it up. You can't take your arms out of the swing. What you are describing might be more of a feel, but it also might not be correct.

      It depends on what you mean by "while the core remains still" I wouldn't consider his core "remaining still" here, DJ's abs, belly button, and belt buckle have rotated almost 90 degrees by the top of the backswing. Those components of his core then have to rotate/uncoil on the downswing. Far from remaining still IMO.

      It’s going to change but your basic setup feel should be about the same. Your body kind of adjusts to length and lie angle of the club. You’ll want to pay attention more to ball position as you change clubs more than how bent over you are. I understood what you meant from what your wrote.

      Oh I probably was thinking the wrong thing or the wrong way when I typed the golf swing was more of a body swing (in my mind).  The in my mind part probably should have said in my opinion or based on what I have read.  Just meant the body needs to be involved more than the hands and swinging the arms while the core remains still.
