I managed to find a retailer with one in stock and it arrived yesterday and it looks even better than the pictures. The three shades of black on the head are superb, the headcover very classy, the black shaft stunning, even the grip feels nice , although I would have preferred a black matador midsize. Then we come to the shaft band, well it's just a sticker, even the subtle mirroring of the headcover pattern in the background can't disguise the fact that its just a sticker. Why no metal shaft band like previous holiday versions, a lovely putter let down by a small detail.
