New 2019 TaylorMade TP Patina Putter Collection features an updated Pure Roll insert
TaylorMade has announced the upcoming release of their TP Patina Putter Collection—a collection of seven new putters featuring a New Pure Roll insert.
All seven putters in the brand’s collection feature a new and thicker 5mm aluminum Pure Roll insert which is designed to bring the grooves into direct contact with the ball. According to the company, the Pure Roll insert’s 45-degree grooves improve forward roll, helping the ball start and stay on its intended line, compared to a solid face.
The collection also contains new signature TP screws that securely fasten the Pure Roll insert to the putter face – in a bid to minimize voids and air pockets below the insert and to create an improved and solid feel at impact.
Blade Options
Each blade putter in the series features a single sightline on the back cavity, while as with each putter in the new collection the naming convention for the putters draw on inspiration from areas, regions and landmarks of some of the world’s greatest golf destinations and historic courses.
Soto
Features 47 degrees of toe hang and a full-shaft offset.
Juno
Shaped with squared contours, Juno contains 36 degrees of toe hang and a full-shaft offset.
Del Monte
The Del Monte features a slight toe hang of 8 degrees.
Mallet Options
Ardmore 1
A face-balanced mallet designed with dual cavity sightlines and on top sightline. The Ardmore 1 features a full-shaft offset intended to promote a linear stroke.
Ardmore 2
With double cavity sightlines designed for a straight back, straight through stroke, the Ardmore 2 features a face-balanced toe hang and single bend TM hosel.
Ardmore 3
Featuring a 42 degree toe hang on a short slant hosel with a single cavity sightline.
DuPage
The DuPage mallet putter contains a single bend, face-balanced design.
The TP adjustable weight system enables the TP soleweights to be unique to each stock length to hit a specific swing weight. Weights ranging from 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, 15, and 20 grams are available for sale separately.
Each model in the TP Patina Putter Collection comes equipped with a KBS CT Taper Stepless Chrome Putter shaft and a Super Stroke Pistol GT 1.0 grip, and the entire collection is available in 34” and 35” lengths in both RH & LH models.
The new collection from TaylorMade is available at retail from September 6 with an MSRP of $249.99 per putter.

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss
In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups in our forum.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
- driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300. The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length. I am playing a Ventus Red 70. I play 70 grams in my fairways. I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee. When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time. So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck. The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
- JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”
