Most players using short putters tend to have one thing in common with players who use long putters: both types want to get their eyes directly over the ball.
According to a report in the Wall Street Journal, a majority stake in L.A.B. Golf has been acquired by L Catterton, the private-equity firm backed by LVMH.
The new TaylorMade TP Black line of putters is the latest instalment of traditional blade and mallet shapes all featuring the company’s roll-enhancing grooved face insert, along with seven distinct hosel/shaft bend orientations and all at a relatively affordable price.
Putting coach Bill Smittle encourages golfers to test their performance with both blade and mallet putters to see if they are right for them, but generally, players who struggle with distance control or alignment are good candidates for mallet putters.
