Imagine how many putts you'd make if you never pulled it or pushed it because your hands / wrists weren't active during the swing.

The point of contact is on the heel, but the axis of rotation goes through the center of the head.

I’ve switched from a generic putter to a metal pole I found in my backyard and my putting’s never been better.

The first putter is toe heavy, and the second one is not. That's the difference. 2 different types of putters for different feel

This is literally a 1AM infomercial that influencers blindly believe

Looks like the shaft is twice as thick so when it's locked in it can't move compared to the other putter which is loose

This is toe balance vs. face balance. Neither one is necessarily better and it depends on the player.

I tried one of these a week ago. It felt horrible in my hands when I swung it. Besides looking like a mental detector

Shaft in the center of gravity vs shaft off set from the center of gravity. I guess we should all be using a 1” steel bar to putt if we go by this metric.

This is a lab golf advertisement, there are usually 3 different putter balance specs for a standard putter, he just made an add for a putter with a no counter balance spec 😅

Loved this putter when I tried it, freaky looking but couldn’t deny it felt great, it has a built in forward lean which I really liked as well

This is just because the lab putter is face balanced which means the toe does not swing as much

This is very similar to what heavy putter did 20 years ago

Note its centre shaft putter.

For everyone saying it's just face balanced, that's not true. I've used face balanced my whole life and just switched to a lab. The difference is astounding.

One thing I've learned over my numerous years in golf is that if a red bow on yer left shoe made you golf better , then EVERY golfer would have a red bow on their left shoe

Thank u. Whatever works, works. And 3-500$ putters don’t fix a golf game

My 30 year old putter hits it just as good as a 600 dollar lab putter. I'm good

Good for a straight back straight through putting stroke. Bad for a slight arc or strong arc stroke.

They also have a blade and mallet version in addition to this one. Amazing putter

Toe hang vs face balanced... There are many many versions of both.. non story, no offence 😂

A brick stays square too... Do you get extra points for style these days?

The generic putter is if you have an arc to your putt so it’s abit more forgiving with the weight mostly in the toe of the head and the other is if you have a straight strike to it so it doesn’t flop around.

Blade putters have toe hang so the putter would open up a mallet putter should be faced ballanced

Face balance is about where the shaft intersects with the face, not the shape of the head. Center shaft vs heel shaft, farther from the center = more toe-hang. I like a face balanced blade because I have a fairly straight putting stroke, but most mallet heads feel too heavy, causing me to lose distance control

Where is it balanced to? Face balanced means it balances when you point it at the sky. Try it. Grab your face balanced putter and hold the shaft on your finger and it will stay square when pointed to the sky. Now tell me when do you putt with the putter pointing at the sky? Once you put it at address it wants to pull open because it is no longer aiming where it is balanced. This doesn't mean you can't putt with it, it just means you are compensating during the stroke for it trying to pull open.

Face-balanced putters are designed for people with a more straight putting stroke, while toe-hang putters are suitable for those who slightly open the putter back as it aids in squaring the putter. The toe hang of blade putters can be altered by adding led tape and weights, and the position of the shaft in the middle does have a slight impact on the amount of toe hang same with putters that have the shaft closer to the heel.

Also, my whole point of the comment was that they were using their mallet putter versus a blade putter. A better comparison would be a mallet versus a mallet.

Check out the Graves Lock N' Roll putter. It is close in design but has adjustable shaft and comes with 2 different shaft links. The prices are about the same.

You do know generic putters come with different balances too, just balancing it on your finger can show a row hang v square aligned within the same models

That “generic putter” swinging open IS THE POINT. it’s meant to correct putting strokes with excessive rolling of the face. A face balanced putter is great if your putting stroke is dead straight back and straight through which not many people have

Wide grip helps it not twist on that contraption to

Yes, but does it make you drive further?

As soon as they make one that isn't fugly i might try it.

I wouldn’t classify Sik Putters as generic lol with the putter face technology they use

I believe Andy Sullivan, The Average Golfer has been saying this for eons.

Personally as I have a slight arc putting stroke I prefer a toe weighted putter. Ive tried a face balanced spider for a while but its not for me

I got the Link1 a month or so ago still getting used to distance control with it as apposed to my previous Scotty but I am holing more putts!

Have friends that’s got one and he said it’s junk. Trying to resale it after a mont.

No matter what putter you use, the face is going to do whatever your hands cause it to do when you stroke the ball. You aren't going to use that contraption on the golf course, so this demonstration means absolutely nothing. Just find a putter that feels good and you can line up consistently and learn how to use it.

Guy looks like he’s shaking pepper on the generic lol

Is the first putter face balanced? Looks it.. 🤔

Blade vs mallet. No toe hang on the mallet.

I have had the mezz 1 for about 2 years now

Why do I pay for premium but still get ads?

Let me know when you feel the need to send it out to me to test 🤣🤣

This seems disingenuous. It's a toe hang putter he compared it to. Not a balanced face. It's supposed to be weighted that way.

Well it a good job that we hold the putter with two hands then as our hand twist so will any putter

Thank goodness we don't use the "revealer" when we putt. #gimmick

Amazing.

I am sure all face balanced putters do the same

You missed the most important part of the demonstration. Instead of squaring the face before making the stroke do the opposite. Spin the face and then make the stroke. Or make the face facing the opposite direction of the target and make your stroke and watch how the face will move and settle on line with the target. That is the selling point.

Lets drag around the revealer too now lol😅😅😅

I seen these tests, but most golfers don’t have a straight path, most have slight arc, would you use this putter?

Lab is a gimmick. Putters are weighted and shaft positioned for your swing path. Lab putter literally is only good for people with a perfect straight back straight forward swing path. Very rare.

This is why i have all 4 lab putters

But has your handicap improved because of them...are you really holing out more putts?

Bad grip?

The putter is designed like that don’t be fooled people. If you’re using a blade it’s supposed to tow hang to account for an arching swing. If you’re swinging straight back and straight through then a mallet is more your style

So the generic was always going to flop around because its a heel mounted bent shaft. The £500 LAB putter is mounted in the middle with a straight shaft. At least conduct a fair example.

What’s crazy is how you think this is crazy

… ya but when you hold a putter , it’s not actually hanging on a hook off your hands , you’re holding it as one piece , so you can still twist the putter slightly with your hands and arms and everything , it won’t stop that completely , that’s just an exaggerated way of looking at it

This is funny...when I put with a basic putter that you would probably see at a mini golf course never had this wobble effect 😉 but thank goodness you added weight to the back

my odyssey versa putts just as good and for half the price

You know what annoys me about this. You’re promoting putters that cost £500+. About time golf started giving back to the amateur

This isn't crazy. Everyone's putting stroke is different. I've tried putters like this and I hate it. I have to alter my stroke too much to compensate. I grew up on a toe balance, so my stroke is conditioned for that. Putting isn't about what's in your hands as much as between your ears.

This device doesn't mean anything when we put our hands on it.

Unfortunately you have to putt with your hands on the putter.

And I would still 3 putt everything with that

The generic putter is toe balanced no shit it rotates that way when you allow it to this is so stupid it's painful.

Toe hang lol

That seems like a gimmick

Congratulations, you’ve shown the difference between a center shafted putter and one that is standard…. It’s nothing new….

This is absolutely garbage. Makes no difference

Hahaha.. yea because thatll help is feel better. In fact this will ruin your feel. Another marketing bs. I dont remeber any of other sport equipments having perfect balance. Tennis racquets, baseball bats, cricket bats, etc. The player feels the balance and adjusts. Not the other way round.. haha so dumb.

Too bad it looks like shit

Scam

Too bad that LAB putter won’t work for anyone who’s put has an arc… and that’s probably for 80% of golfers out there

This is not anything new. Face balanced putters have been around for several decades. They do work for some folks, hence why they’ve been around for decades and currently offered by most major OEM’s. Companies like this attempting to show they’ve created something innovative and original is really embarrassing.

yeh but... if you hit off the toe or heal less forgiveness

Shite

That means absolutely nothing, unless your grips spin around the shaft

AXIS1 - makes the best putters. Look em up, you’re welcome. If zero torq putter builds are what your wanting to get into

lol. So you use some mini golf trash putter for your “generic club” and then your lab? They are some of the ugliest clubs ever made, and *WAY* too over priced.
