Hello.

I was curious when they released the Laguna 2.5. I'm not exactly sure if it is availiable to the public yet, but thats not my concern.

I own a Pro Platinum Laguna 2.5 and I was curious what the difference(s) is between mine and the new Studio Stainless Laguna 2. Does the .5 stand for offset or something? Thanks for all posts!!!

Whats in my 14 Way Stand Bag?? Just...

The nomeclature used to SC putters can be a bit confusing/contradictory. The "x.5" designation is currently used to denote a putter than has a flow neck (looks like this one). Your Pro Platinum Laguna 2.5 is more similar to the Studio Select Laguna 2 that is currently being sold (has a plumber's neck). The plumber's neck has less toe hang than a flow neck.

The major differences between your Pro Plaitum and the new Studio Stainless are as follows:

- The Studio Stainless (SS) is made from Stainless Steel as opposed to the Pro Platinum (PP) that is made from Carbon Steel (has a softer feel) that is plated with the PP finish.
- The SS has interchangable weights on the sole that allows you many different weight/length combinations. The PP does not and only came in a 330g/35" combo.
- The SS has a "high toe" that supposedly makes the clubhead look "more square" at address as opposed to the PP that does not have a high toe. You'll have to look at a picture of the high toe because it's too hard to explain in words without further confusing you.
- The markins/paintfill will obviously also be different between the two.

Hopefully that helps you out a bit.

    • I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.
    • Day 151 1-11 flow work today. I've been doing all pause work, so Inwanted to get some rhythm going. Recorded.
    • a) No b) This MLR says: I doubt the MLR is going to affect their weekly league games, in other words.
    • So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands  
    • Original definition use to or still is how far offline you hit it. It might be better to think of it as consistency in retaining favorable launch conditions to optimize distance.   That heat map showed a gigantic 0-3% loss in ball speed. That is absurd. The true 100% sweet spot is tiny for all clubs. Good luck telling the difference if the sweet spot is under 3% in a sizable area. Especially considering variation in launch angle, spin, and outdoor weather.
