    L.A.B. Golf's Evolution | 2nd Swing Thoughts Ep. 75

    L.A.B. Golf expands its innovative putter lineup with the new OZ.1 and OZ.1i mallets. These mallet putters showcase a more traditional semi-circular shape with a refined design, inspired by feedback from tour professionals like Adam Scott. The key difference lies in the face: the OZ.1 features a one-piece aluminum construction for a softer feel, while the OZ.1i incorporates a stainless steel insert for a firmer feel and enhanced ball speed. Both models prioritize stability and forgiveness with a high-MOI design and utilize L.A.B.
