These ugly putters are getting wins on all major tours now. Being talked about by most online golf forums as well as printed golf publications. Only time will tell where this company will go, but the current trajectory is promising and I believe they have more wins on tour now than Edel putters and definitely more than Axis One. (Just trying to pick another small market putter to compare)

2024 TST Outing - June 1/2 @ EagleSticks and Virtues
JPitts replied to StuM's topic in Member Outings & Meetups
I am absolutely interested. -
Good morning, I am having some elbow issues and am currently playing aerotech steelfiber iron shafts which are doing a great job managing the problem. I am thinking of testing the new Fujikura Axiom shafts this offseason in the 105x. Has anyone in here tried these shafts? If so, have they also hit the steefibers and would be able to give any data on launch and spin comparisons? I know feel is subjective, but I am always looking for something that is not harsh but can manage launch and spin as I tend to be a little high on the spectrum for both of those numbers.

Nope, no gaslighting or dishonesty at all in the post. It was nothing more than a post highlighting a small company having great success and pointing out that they appear to be here to stay. I do know that a couple years ago it was hit or miss if they were going to be sticking around. If the post caused you to doubt your own perceptions, experiences, or understanding of events, then that was strictly coincidental.

Took your advice after playing the courses in the area and joined Fawn Lake. Great golf course!

Looks like LAB golf is going to be sticking around for quite some time. Lots of tour players using it now, and none of them are paid to play it. Pretty cool to see a small company doing so well in a really tough market to get into (as far as tour use goes). Wishing them all the best and am excited to see what they come out with next.

I played Meadows Farm last weekend. Played the Waterfall/Longest combo. Very fun golf course. Might try Lee's Hill this weekend.
-
Looks like we're going to probably be in the Fredericksburg area. Have you played the Gauntlet? Looks like a good track, and membership is cheap!

Commutable to Arlington/Crystal City area, home with some acreage under $700,000, and good schools for the kids. I only have to commute once per week, so hopping on the VRE makes life easy.

I leave the pin in because it gives me 5 definitive targets when putting. Left lip, left edge of flagstick, center of flagstick, right edge of flagstick, and right lip. It really helps me focus on entry point.

I was out there this year, and man was it crazy! Biggest crowds I've ever seen at this event. This is a photo looking back at #11 tee...usually not a busy place.

Hello all, I am new to the Stafford, VA area and was curious who else in here is in that area. Would love to meet up and play some golf. I am currently in Phoenix, but will be out there starting March 11.

It's crazy the things that can creep into our minds while standing over a golf ball.

Point of tolerance?

Are you are referring to the comment stating that no data has been presented by me or anyone else on this site? If so, please explain is not a direct question, but allow me to do so. As I stated in an above post, many other golf forums and youtube channels have done reviews and testing. I could post some links to those, but I am not sure how that is received in here. I know that the TXG guys did a very good review on the putter and went pretty in depth. There are others out there as well. Just to clarify, I don't have a dog in this fight. Just figured it would be an interesting conversation to have.

That was such a classic putter! I used one of the OG Rossie putters back in high school. Had a couple of my best putting rounds ever with that thing. Funny, now I can't stand an insert on a putter.

I find it interesting that this putter gets as much hate as it does in this forum. I still get a laugh out of the physics comments. Physics still establish that torque does exist, although in minimal quantities while putting, and that different putter styles create different amounts of torque. There simply is no denying these facts, and anyone who does simply does not have a knowledge of physics. Now, to what effect that the torque plays in putting for an average golfer is something that can be discussed, but to say it does not exist is complete ignorance. Since the closed down thread from 5 years ago the putter has been reviewed on multiple golf forums, youtube channels, and golf publications. All have given positive reviews and provided data that show improvement with the putter. Of course the common negative is the looks of the putter.

Well, it has been a few years since people in this forum said that the Directed Force putter and their technology would never stick around, and here we are with multiple tour players putting their putters in the bag without a single one of them being paid to do so. I am curious if minds are being changed in this group. I for one am very happy for the new look Mezz putter they released as I think the new shape will be much more appealing to many golfers. What are the current thoughts of the members here? Let's try to keep this pleasant and respectful.

It has been quite a while since I last logged onto this forum. Just wanted to check in and see what is going on. I have since moved from Dallas to the Phoenix area and was curious if there are any get togethers with the Phoenix group.
-
I'll download and let you know. Thanks! Sounds great. You'll haves to state at the Directed Force all day though. :)
-
Looking for a game. Anyone else in here from the Dallas area? I live on the West Side between Fort Worth and Dallas. Up in the Keller area if anybody lives in this area wants to play, hit me up.
-
Couldn't agree more.
-
Let's not forget Odyssey with the toe up. Closest anyone has come to duplicating lie angle balancing.

I believe they are a sponsor over at golfwrx, so it looks like they are going through that forum for testing and golfer review. So far the response over there has been very positive. They were also included in last year's golf digest hot list. Got 5 stars for innovation. Maybe they didn't want any part of this forum because of the tone in this thread?
