Custom torched Lynx by Jerry Barber #11 blade putter. The custom torched finish gives off an array of colors in sunlight and is sure to be a unique addition to your bag or collection. It has been paintfilled with Tiffany blue enamel, and a sight dot has been added to the topline to help you find the sweet spot. The club is approximately 35” in length and is made for a right handed player. It has a steel shaft, topped with a Golf Pride Tour Wrap putter grip that has a lot of life still left. This is a blade style putter with a unique shape. The thin top line tapers gradually outward towards the sole, somewhat reminiscent of a Napa style putter, with just slightly narrower profile. The putter head is a little longer than average heel to toe, offering a slightly larger sweet spot & some forgiveness on less than perfect putts. All inscriptions on this putter have been custom paintfilled with the same Tiffany blue enamel as the sight dot. This includes the “LYNX” on the rear flange, the “LYNX by Jerry Barber” on the sole, the outline of a lynx on the heel end of the putter face, and the “U.S.A.” and “11” stampings on the hosel. This would be a great addition to your bag or collection, and its custom torched finish makes it a head turner & a unique conversation starter.

You may be asking yourself- who exactly is Jerry Barber? Read on for a quick overview…

Jerry Barber was not only a great club maker, but was a full-time member of the PGA Tour from 1948 to 1962. He played on two Ryder Cup teams, 1955 and 1961; and was also the team captain in 1961 (both appearances netted U.S. wins) Barber earned a living primarily as a club professional like most of the touring pros of his generation; he worked at Los Angeles' Wilshire Country Club. And obviously, he was a master craftsman & club designer/builder. He was the Player of the Year on the PGA Tour in 1961, unseating Arnold Palmer for a year. During that year Barber also won his only major victory, the 1961 PGA Championship, beating Don January in a playoff to secure a win at -3, which due to terrible weather throughout the tournament was a great score. At the time, Barber was 45, and this made him the oldest player to win a major title. Barber still holds the record for the oldest player to ever play on the PGA Tour in February 1994, when he played in the Buick Invitational at Torrey Pines at the age of 77 years, 10 months. Sadly, he died later that year, in September.
