Why We Like It
- These conventional-looking mallets come with the benefit of SeeMore’s proven alignment system for keeping the putter face square to the target.
- By aligning the shaft and a red dot on the heel side of the flange, the golfer knows the putter face is not only aligned properly but the sole is flat on the ground to increase the opportunity for solid contact.
- Copper weights on the heel, toe and sole (six on the HTx and four on the MDx) balance the putter’s overall head weight and center of gravity to help the face stay square to the plane of the putting stroke.
- The larger tip-diameter steel shaft provides extra stability and a clearer visual effect for the alignment system.
- The head is fully milled from high-grade aluminum.
- The HTX has the familiar parallel-wing footprint, and the MDX offers a traditional clamshell mid-mallet design.
- Models: Mini Giant HTx, MDx. Head weights: 365, 370 grams. Lengths: 30-39 inches. Loft: 2.5 degrees

Unique and effective alignment system. Lot of heft to this club, but the weight balance is very good. A center-shafted putter just doesn't fit my eye.

I tried to not let myself get distracted by seeing or not seeing the red alignment dot. I putted great with this club, but it felt like I was putting with a training aid.

The alignment system is aggressive but tastefully done. Set it and forget it. The brass weights exude heft. Putter felt stable all the time. Good end-over-end roll.

I really like looking down at the alignment aid. It's so reassuring. The brass weighting on the heel and toe are very attractive. Nice, controlled roll on every putt.

More traditional head style than previous versions of this club, which was great to see. Very stable throughout the stroke. Forgiving on off-center strikes. I love this putter.

Love the energy it produced on lag putts. Very predictable roll. I struggled on short putts. It helps you check your setup, yes, but it can feel like work over the ball.

Matt

The busy alignment tool fades away quickly once you start using it. I was hitting putts straight for sure and also dialing in distance on long putts. The ridged pattern on the top gives it kind of a plasticky look.

Foolproof. If you use the alignment tool properly, seems all-but impossible to miss your line. Allows you to focus on speed. Quiet impact, just a light tap.

Scott

Perfect, buttery feel off the face. Really easy to judge distance. Five-footers were money. The key is not to get hyper-focused on hiding the red dot at address. It's a very good putter without the alignment stuff.

Two hosel options include the short slant or short plumber.

A reverse plumber’s-neck hosel centers the putter’s balance point between the shaft and head to make it easier for the face to stay square to the path of the stroke.
The benefit of the hosel is that unlike other designs that reduce or eliminate torsional resistance, this version does not force the hands well forward with an angled shaft. The idea is that because the shaft is aligned with the head’s center of mass, the putter face stays square to the path of the stroke to eliminate unreliable hand action.
Models include the extremely stable Z1, which features two 85-gram heel and toe weights in the front sole of the milled-aircraft-aluminum head.

L.A.B. Golf is known for distinctive shapes that pursue balanced weighting to keep the face square, but this lineup represents the company’s most conventional look yet.
With input from Adam Scott, the traditional half-moon mallets feature the all-aluminum milled Oz.1 and the Oz.1i, which has a milled stainless-steel face insert.
Both models incorporate the sole weighting and 2-degree shaft lean that align the shaft with the putter’s center of mass so that the head remains square to the lie angle for consistent, on-target impacts.

The process cuts as many as a dozen starter blanks out of a large block of stainless steel with five-axis milling machines precisely dialing in each angle and curve to produce an affordable design.

The interchangeable steel-face and aluminum-body designs aim to give players the feel of a blade with the stability and forgiveness of a mallet.
The face is milled from forged 1025 steel, the same steel used in the company’s irons. The body is 7075 aluminum.
Heavy heel and toe sole weights, which join the front piece to the back, add mallet-level stability and keep the center of gravity forward, reminiscent of a blade.

The Ai-One comes in an array of traditional and non-traditional shapes, including the iconic 2-Ball and popular Jailbird and even one that combines the two. The secret, though, is the asymmetrical thickness pattern on the face.
Designers used AI and machine learning to explore more than 2,000 design versions to develop the face insert’s asymmetrical thickness pattern to improve off-center speed and roll for greater consistency.
The urethane coating over the soft-aluminum face insert matches that of the company’s highly favored White Hot material for soft feel.
