Prototype of new "Manhattan" model ships for New York City
Read more →I recently met with a customer at Hot Stix Golf in Scottsdale and was lucky enough to watch him go thru their in-depth putter fitting process. He had been demo'ing a pair of my handmades and before purchasing a putter, we both felt he needed to get the exact numbers that would benefit him the very most. Though he does not get to play as often as he would like, he manages to keep a single-digit handicap and has a swing that many would be jealous of. Following his fitting, using my new 2014 Rattler, he made the choice to...

Doing a very limited number of a classic design in carbon steel.
Read more →I was fortunate enough to have worked with a company in the past that had some heads milled out of a Texas facility in the classic style that almost everyone knows about. When I inquired about using some of them for MannKrafted projects, the president of that company was very gracious. He gave me his blessing to create some custom looks on a limited number of heads. This is my opportunity to give the guys who are supporters of what I do, a chance to have a hand in creating exactly what they want, in the style of a putter...

New Model that will be up, soon. "ONE-14", blend of a few favorites.
Read more →I milled the prototype for this one, back in October and it sat with a 303 SS neck for a while, until the true look of what it was supposed to be showed itself. The head was screaming for a double-bend shaft, slipped over an aluminum, threaded-in stub and made to find a home in my bag. The brass head is absolutely gorgeous and it feels very soft. The milling does not kill the feel, at all and gives great feedback. I played my first round of 2014 with this one and the factor that grabbed me was that I...

Custom Putter from MannKrafted- The Process [PICS]
Read more →Custom putters have come a long way in the past 20 years. In the past, the options for custom putters were limited, and in many cases, very expensive. There are several putter manufacturers who are in the custom putter market now. For many people, ordering a custom putter can be intimidating or overwhelming. It is different than going to a golf shop and picking up a putter to play it for a couple of months and then move on to another model. When you invest in a custom putter, you want to be sure it will be in your bag...

Fastest Way to Improve Your Putting
Read more →When you are working on improving your putting there are so many factors that come into play. You could spend the entire next year watching videos of PGA pros showing different putting drills. You could spend an hour on the putting green every morning and afternoon. You could go to a putting clinic at your local course. The bottom line is every method I have heard of to become a better putter often involves a huge time commitment. It is by far the hardest part of the game and one where you don't find too many short cuts. Here...

Tad Moore's Hoffman Blade... MannKrafted Style
Read more →Here is a short story about a very unique and rare putter. The Hoffman Blade. The life of this putter goes all the way back to over 20 years ago, when it started out as a quality forging from one of the best forging houses in American golf, the Hoffman Foundry. The Hoffman Foundry did a lot of work for major OEM Golf companies such as Titleist, Maxfli and others. During a 1991 inspection visit to check on some irons that were being made, Tad Moore was presented the opportunity to purchase some of the heel-shafted blade. Fast forward...
