The Nike Method Prototype 006 Putter has had a great run in the hands of the top player in the world, Rory McIlroy. Now it can be yours.
The Nike putter that Rory McIlroy has used to notch six tour victories, including a pair of Major championships, is finally being released to the general public on Wednesday, April 15th.
The Nike Method Prototype 006, which is an anser-style blade putter, was developed by Nike Master Craftsman David Franklin, and features the company’s Polymetal Groove technology in the face to provide a soft feel and faster roll.
“We took the opportunity to blend superior craftsmanship with innovative science to create a putter that not only looks beautiful, but also truly gives the athlete an advantage with a superior roll,” Franklin said.
Each Nike Method Prototype 006 Putter sold will feature a laser-engraved Nike Oven logo and will be bundled with a tour-packaged box of RZN Black golf balls, a volt Nike head cover and a booklet with more information about the club.

The putter ($450 MSRP) will be available in limited quantities at nike.com April 15 and select retailers April 17. No guarantees are being made that you’ll roll more birdies than McIlroy, but at least you can say you own the same blade.
