Spotted: New PXG putters with milled inserts and TPE technology

Published

on

We spotted new putters from Parsons Xtreme Golf (PXG) on the putting green of the Quicken Loans National on Tuesday at Congressional Country Club.

According to John Wall of the PGA Tour, there are 11 new models, each with milled inserts and the company’s familiar thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) technology. The putters are made from 303 stainless steel and aircraft-grade aluminum, and have a 304 stainless steel face insert with a hollow cavity filled with 0.150 inches of TPE sitting behind it (the Gunboat mallet has a core made of TPE that runs the “length of the head”).

Check out photos of the new models below, and read what GolfWRX members are saying here.

    I just bought a GUNBOAT putter and love it. It has a great feel off the face when I putter.

    I still don’t see the appeal of those obnoxious screws……I suppose it’s a signature ???

    It is nice the 2% have another nice toy to spend their money on. What is it in 2017 now about 10% your ability and 90% the tools you use? Or is it the same as 1910 99% your ability 1% the tools you use…

    It’s not the putter, it’s the puttee.

    More copies from Parsons? These will suck just like his irons and metals

    I like the blade, the Anser style, the center shaft, and the mallet w the line over the top. I love the screws and the great machined finish. I wonder if there is a fitting studio where I can get fit to get into one of these beauties? Based on PXGs reputation and these pics I bet these perform great in trained hands. Well done.! ????

    I really don’t see anything groundbreaking here. Certainly not $500 worth.

    So just for the record, these aren’t Ping putters?

    Will the price be way over the top as is their irons???

      I’m sure they will. Seems they aren’t at all interested in appealing to the regular golfer. I’d be shocked if these putters are less than $500.

    Get a license, walk around town, watch interactions. Go to social events and even if it’s awkward jusy say hI to random people, then build up confidencd, throw in some jokes. Rember golf must be your passion, so golf will be your restoring time. Your already on this planet so, why give up, get up and try. You can do it

    The Dagger looks interesting and I like the Mustang, but more importantly, I wish I had shares in the company that sells them those screws.

      Each screw is handmade by a metal artisan in Sedona. Because, you know, if you attach the word handmade to a putter the world swoons.

        just half the world…. the other half seems to think sarcasm and mockery is the way to go. To each their own though.

    Mustang looks pretty awesome.

Putter Roundup: 2024 Zurich Classic of New Orleans

Published

on

We always get some great photos of some phenomenal putters at tour events and love to share them. Here are a few from the 2024 Zurich Classic that caught our eye and seemed interesting. (And as a reminder, you can check out all our photos from New Orleans here)

MJ Daffue’s Scotty Cameron T-11 Prototype

MJ is going with the new Scotty Cameron T-11 Prototype this week. The putter is a multi-piece mallet that puts an emphasis on stability with the wings on the back. Daffue’s putter does have a design that differs from retail with a monotone finish, which eliminates the black paint on the aluminum parts that we see at retail. He also has a half siteline milled into the top and an L-neck welded on for some additional toe hang. The face features a deeper milling that should offer a softer feel and slightly quieter sound.

Scotty Cameron T-7.5 Prototype

We spotted a few different Scotty Cameron Phantom models with modified rear flanges. It looks like the straight black flange was cut into a half circle for a little softer look at address. On this T-7.5, you can still see the raw aluminum from the back view, so this might have been a last-minute job to get them out on tour. The semi-circle also has a white line on it, maybe to frame the ball differently.

Alex Fitzpatrick’s Bettinardi SS16 DASS

Alex’s SS16 is made from Bettinardi’s famous D.A.S.S., or double-aged stainless steel, for a softer and more responsive feel. The face has a unique diamond pattern milling and features a logo that I feel like I have seen before, but can’t put a name to. The putter is a classic mid-mallet style with a simple, single white siteline on the top. The sole is clean with just the SS16, DASS, and a green triangle logo on it.

Steve Stricker’s Odyssey White Hot No. 2

This putter has made some amazing putts in its long career! Stricker’s White Hot No. 2 might be in the top 10 of most famous putters in golf. When you see all the dents and lead tape, you know the heel will be up and it will be sinking putts! The soft White Hot insert looks to be in good shape and has less wear on it than the rest of the putter. We don’t know how much lead tape is on the sole, but it has to be multiple layers compacted down over the years.

Doug Ghim’s Scotty Cameron T-7 Prototype

This T-7 should win the award for “best color finish” in this list with its deep chromatic bronze. It looks like Scotty added a cherry bomb dot to the heel of the deep-milled face and filled it with a very dark blue paint. The rest of the putter looks pretty stock with its single site line on the topline and twin site lines down the “fangs” of the putter. Twin 5-gram weights are installed in the sole and the putter is finished off with a gloss black double bend shaft with a fill shaft offset.

Spotted: Project X Denali hybrid shaft

Published

on

Project X’s Denali wood shafts have been seen in more and more golf bags this year as we start off the season. As a refresher, Denali Blue is the mid-launch and mid-spin model while Denali Black is for players seeking lower launch and spin.

Denali combines great feel with stability and increased ball speed. Currently, Project X only offers Denali Blue and Black in wood shafts, but we spotted a hybrid shaft in Daniel Berger’s bag at the 2024 Zurich Classic.

The shaft looks to be a Denali Blue 105G – HY in TX flex. No word on details from Project X yet but we can assume that this is a mid-launching shaft that weighs around 105 grams in Tour X-Stiff flex.

Berger has this shaft in his TaylorMade P770 3-iron, likely for some added launch and spin to hold the green from longer distances.

Hopefully, this means we will see some more shafts coming under the Denali name in the future, as I think many of us would like to try one in a hybrid or utility iron!
