Brian Braun-Duin has been spending some time this past two weeks featuring the Butcher as his go to for finisher. I like his ideas but I wonder if for the most consistency you should stick for one color most in your wedge and then capitalize on the Butcher as your finisher. Here is black as the dominant color.
