HOW IT’S MADE! – Xenon Custom Putters

A Truly Custom Product

There are custom putters and then there are CUSTOM putters. Lumpy over at Xenon Golf…he is one of the few left in the industry making truly CUSTOM putters.

How custom?

You got a napkin and some basic sketching skills?

If you can dream it, Lumpy can make it. Lumpy has been making putters for a few years now, but recently ramped up the business and started churning out dozens of customs out of the small shed in his backyard. And unlike today’s high volume shops that rely heavily on computers to do the milling work for them, Lumpy  does all of his milling by hand. He’s an artist.

One of the most intriguing aspects of Xenon putters is the creativity you see in his designs. With most major putter manufacturers, they are limited to producing the market staples. I’m talking about Anser-style blades, traditional mallets; all the stuff that sells and sells well. The problem with that approach is that it means that some of the best ideas never get made because of the risk involved with putting an “out of the box” idea in to production.

With Xenon putters, as you can see from their Facebook Page, your own mind is the only limitation. For those that are not in to handmades, I still suggest you take a look at his work. This guy is making putters on one of the smallest machines you could ever imagine a putter being produced from, and the finished products are absolutely sick.

One conversation with Lumpy leaves little doubt that his putters are true labors of love.

How Xenon Putters Are Made

We had Lumpy from Xenon Putters make one of his best sellers, the kUrve.  What you see below is the step-by-step process it took to make the: Handmade kUrve in 303SS, with electric blue accents and welded flow neck.

Let Lumpy know what you think!
