Bruce Sizemore’s newest venture, More Golf, is inspired by Detroit

MORE GOLF Milled putter

When it comes to putter design there are a lot of designers and creators known by a single name—Karsten, Scotty, Bettinardi, and now Toulon. But there are many more out there creating beautifully unique and perfectly machined designs like Bruce Sizemore of More Golf.

With More Golf, Bruce is launching an ultra-premium golf equipment startup that will bring design and manufacturing of the world’s finest golf equipment to Michigan (notice I didn’t just say putters, but we’ll touch on that later).


More Golf’s initial offering is The Detroit Collection, a limited-edition release of just 99 ultra-premium putters that were created from start to finish in the city of Detroit.

More Golf founder Bruce Sizemore:

“With The Detroit Collection, our first commercial project, we wanted to make a statement about the city of Detroit. Detroit is an incubator of transformative artistry and design. Maybe more than anything, it’s a place with a bold vision for the future. We created The Detroit Collection to offer the ultimate combination of precision manufacturing, artistry, design, and of course, boldness.”

Behind the Design

Each one-of-a-kind putter features a Mokume Gane insert. What is that? Let me explain. Mokume Gane is an ancient Japanese art form that dates back to the 16th century. Originally, this meticulous metal-making method was used to construct ornate hilts (handles) on samurai swords by layering metal and fusing it close to its melting point. It translates roughly to “wood grain metal” and by looking at the insert, it’s easy to understand why.

Mokume Gane inserts for The Detroit collection putters are crafted from 14 layers of the purest copper and silver to create a look and feel that is completely unique. Through heating and pressure, the copper and silver are bonded to form a solid billet of material which will then become the insert.

To create the unique ornamentation of each putter insert, the Mokume Gane billet is hand-carved to establish a three-dimensional surface pattern before being forged and then milled flat. The resulting “starburst effect” present in each insert is the result of the different layers of materials expressing their distinct character on the surface. These putters are almost more about creating a functioning piece of art than a day to day workhorse.

“The unique fingerprint of each putter can never be duplicated because of the hand-crafted intricacies of Mokume Gane. It can never be reproduced.” Bruce Sizemore

Ordering & spec details

The Detroit Collection putter heads and necks are 100 percent CNC Milled from a solid billet of 303 stainless material to the tightest tolerances. The head and/or necks of the putters can be customized in one of two finishes: Satin Pearl or Patina. Each Mokume insert is available in one of two finishes: Raw Mokume or Belgian Black Patina. Length, loft, and lie angle will be customized to order. Custom laser etching will also available of each one of these 99 putters.

Each putter will also be equipped with a proprietary putter shaft from Oban that was developed specifically for More Golf. Each putter shaft is created from a seamless Japanese braided steel tube that’s extruded to its final shape to offer the highest level of quality and feel.

Details don’t stop at the putter head either, More Golf also collaborated with U.S.-based Best Grips to create signature putter grips and headcovers for The Detroit Putter Collection. All Best Grips headcovers and grips are handmade from the finest cowhide, to offer golfers a distinctive look and a premium feel.

How to get yours

The Detroit Collection putters start at $2,500 (USD) and can be reserved through the More Golf website: MOREGOLFUSA.COM. Golfers who want to make their putter truly one of a kind can schedule a 1-on-1 design consultation with Bruce Sizemore.

    I like the style and shape but it’s a $20 chunk of steel for $2500? Might be from Detroit but priced like a used car.

    That fancy metalwork is pretty and all, it if it doesn’t help you make more putts, what’s the point?

    With putters starting at $2,500, this startup will be closing its doors very soon.

    They better not be a one trick pony.

    Excellent craftsmanship, but looks like a piece of jewelry. People will actually game these? I doubt it. The starting price is $2500? Oh, OK. Haha. No.

Published

We’re proud to once again partner with 2nd Swing Golf to bring you GolfWRX Members Choice 2025! 2nd Swing has more than 150,000 new and pre-swung golf clubs available in six store locations and online. Check them out here

What is the best driver in 2025? At GolfWRX, we take great pride in our online community and the cumulative knowledge and experience of our members. When it comes to the best driver of 2025, we want to know what our forum faithful think.

Since our founding in 2005, the bedrock of GolfWRX.com has been the community of passionate and knowledgeable golfers in our forums, and we put endless trust in the opinions of our GolfWRX members — the most knowledgeable community of golfers on the internet. No other group of golfers in the world tests golf clubs as frequently or as extensively, nor is armed with such in-depth information about the latest technology.

Below are the results of GolfWRX member voting for the 2025 best driver, along with the vote percentage for each club.

Best driver of 2025: The top 5

5. Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond: 6.02%

Callaway’s pitch: “For golfers looking for a fast, forgiving, yet workable driver, the Elyte Triple Diamond features a tour-inspired shape and is the preferred model by most Callaway tour players.”

You can read what other golfers are saying about the driver in the GolfWRX forums, and see our launch piece here. Shop the Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond here.

4. Ping G440 Max: 6.86%

Ping’s pitch: “The most forgiving G440 model, MAX has a hotter face to generate speed and distance, and a lighter overall system weight with a longer shaft (46″) for faster clubhead speed, higher launch and longer carries. The Free Hosel and Carbonfly Wrap crown save weight to create our lowest CG ever and increase forgiveness while contributing to a more muted, pleasing sound.”

3. Ping G440 LST: 9.53%

Ping’s pitch: “LST is an especially good fit for faster swings, offering less spin and more control with a penetrating trajectory. A hotter face, lighter overall system weight and longer shaft (46″) deliver more speed and distance while maintaining tight dispersion.”

@phizzy30: “Not a fan of Ping drivers in general, but 440 LST takes the cake. It’s super forgiving across the face for a low spin head, looks and sounds good and the ability to make it play neutral or slightly fade biased through the hosel settings is very appealing.”

2. Titleist GT3: 16.55%

Titleist’s pitch: “The GT3 Driver offers Titleist’s boldest combination of power and personalization through adjustable performance. Dial in the CG Track to your frequent contact location to make your biggest drives even bigger while taking total control over flight and shaping.”

@mrmikeac: “I’ve been Anti-Titleist for years and years and years (outside of Vokey, of course). With that being said, HOLY BEGEEZUS the GT3 driver is an absolute NUCLEAR MONSTER! This thing blew my G430 10K Max out of the water in every single category. Forgiveness is the biggest thing that stands out of me, the 3 model has always been one of the less forgiving models in the past but this GT3 can take bad shot after bad shot and still end up in the fairway, I think a ton of that has to do with the adjustability, it’s actually effective. Feel and sound is perfect, that solid crack is so addicting to hear and when you hit it out the screws this thing can absolutely bomb it. Titleist, I’m sorry for doubting you. You have converted me.”

1. Titleist GT2: 22.91%

Titleist’s pitch: “Delivering impressive distance from any impact point, the Titleist GT2 Driver extracts maximum performance through a forgiving design. Get the stability and added confidence of a high-MOI driver without sacrificing speed.”

@DTorres: “The Titleist GT2 has proven to be the best driver of the year. Packaged in a classic profile, GT2 perfectly balances performance and forgiveness while consistently being a high performer across all categories.”
