TaylorMade is releasing its TP Black Copper putters to retail

We first spotted TaylorMade’s new TP Black Copper putters at the 2018 PGA Show, but the company wasn’t saying anything about specs, release date, pricing, technologies, nothing.
Then, we all saw Rory McIlroy switch to a TaylorMade TP Black Copper Soto proto putter ahead of the 2018 Arnold Palmer Invitational, which he won by 3 strokes. Of course, Rory’s specific Soto putter was made with a special insert. Click here for all of the info and specs on Rory’s putter.
Now, TaylorMade is releasing retail versions to the public in four models — Juno, Soto, Ardmore 3 and Mullen 2 — which will hit stores on 4/20 selling for $199 with a standard Black Lamkin Crossbone Pistol grip, and $219 with a SuperStroke Pistol 1.0 GT grip.
The putters have a triple-plated finish; nickel, then copper, then black chrome, according to TaylorMade’s Bill Price (Senior Director of Product Creation for Wedges and Putters). They’re then hand-polished to achieve the antique and non-glare finish. Overtime, and especially on the sole, Price says the copper will tarnish or oxidize to unveil a gradually more antique and rustic look. Rory McIlroy himself actually had a hand in inspiring the new finish.
“Rory was talking about certain finishes,” Price said. “He wanted something non-glare, with an antique type finish…. he wanted to be reminded of something old school.”
Thus, the TP Black Copper finish was born.
Also, the putters are machined from 303 stainless steel, they have adjustable sole weights and have the company’s familiar Pure Roll inserts in their faces. Check out more info about each of TaylorMade’s TP Black Copper models below.

Marketing doesn’t walk the course or make the shot, its just you and what you’ve brought along. If something works, people see; if somethings stays in the bag, friends notice.
Last year I picked up a pair of Adidas golf shoes and a TM carry bag to replace an Adidas whose legs failed way too soon. The shoes are comfy as hell and look like they’ll do another 60 rounds. The bag wears better than my old Sun Mountain and still looks new. I’ve probably logged 200 rounds with their irons; they made an instant difference in distance and trajectory, my first experience hitting good looking golf shots with irons.
Their products work and they last. I’m not surprised others feel the same.
