Spotted: Nate Lashley’s Ping PLD “Wolverine” putter
Ping PLD putters have been a very common site on profesional tours. Pros seem to gravitate toward the PLD line’s custom options and precision milling. We have seen the PLD line expanded over the years, but we haven’t seen too many, if any, large mallets.
This week we spotted a PLD putter in Nate Lashley’s bag that has a similar look to the old Ping Wolverine head shape. This putter is a large mallet with the famous “claws” on the outside and oval center that housed the alignment aid.
Nick’s putter has the PLD logo on the back but also looks like it might have an insert installed on the face. It is hard to tell but at the address picture, it looks like the face is a lighter material than the rest of the putters. The putter is center-shafted and should be face-balanced with a high MOI for stability and forgiveness on mishits. The sole is completely milled and has no markings of name or technologies that might be present in the head. A single white site line is on the top of the putter for alignment.
Nick’s putter is finished off with a chrome steel shaft and a Super Stroke Zenergy Flatso 2.0 grip in black and white.

I didn’t love the look of the 785 at first, but man do I like it now.

A lefty golfer here. No 5-6 utility iron for left hand. No matching gap wedge for left hand. The ordinary left handed golfer needs these options. You offer a 3 iron in left hand even though I’m sure you would sell more gap wedges & 5-6 utility irons. Guess I won’t be buying any new Srixon clubs.

No offense but do you really think you know more about what they’d sell more of than they do? Your frustration is understandable but companies like this base these decisions off sales history and market research. It’s not just a guess.

Completely agree. I’m tired of lefties complaining about club availability. Just stick to the companies that do offer the clubs you prefer and stop taking everything personally.
Same thing goes with wide-footed shoe complainers.
