Ben Hogan adds new mallet putter and additional finishes for 2021

Published

on

Based on the success of the putter line launched in 2019, Ben Hogan is upping its putter game with new finishes and a new mallet-style putter for 2021, the BHM02.

The BHM02 is a multi-material head made from a milled aluminum face attached to a milled 304 SS body. Although the shape is familiar, the construction is not. By utilizing the various materials in the head, designers had the ability to move more mass back and towards the perimeter, making it the highest MOI putter in the Ben Hogan lineup.

“Feel is especially important on the putting green.  That’s why the original Precision Milled Forged Putter line from Ben Hogan, which debuted in 2019, was crafted from soft, 1025 carbon steel, as the forging process strengthens and purifies the molecular structure of the steel to refine and tighten the grain structure of the head which, in turn, provides for uniform density across the entire clubface.” -Scott White, CEO of BenHogan Golf Equipment Company

Also for 2021, the most popular models in the existing line, the BHB01, BHB03, and BHM01 models, will be offered with a new Platinum Nickel finish option.

    I saw a set of Hogan Medallion irons at a Play it Again Sports. 2-W with a Hogan SW. Long irons had no offset, but the short irons did. Very tempting to purchase just to have around. No putter though. Hogan used the basic simple putter.

    Ben Hogan disliked putting so much that he would play rounds without putting, just add two to the number of shots it took him to reach the green. Bizarre for a brand bearing his name to bet on putters.

New Level launches new 480-DB irons, blending performance and forgiveness

Published

on

New Level has been making some really good golf equipment since the company started up in 2018. Offering irons that are more geared towards the better player, precision has been a fundamental philosophy for New Level in creating irons and wedges.

The 480 line of irons has been the flagship of the brand, and the newest member of that team is the 480-DB iron that is now open to pre-orders. A new cavity design is what the whole 480 line is about, and the 480-DB takes advantage of that with added ball speed and a larger sweet spot.

For players who require their irons to offer the best feel, rest assured the DB is a fully forged (from 1020 carbon steel) one-piece golf club. No multi-piece, hollow design with this iron.

While the 480-DB is the next generation of the popular 902-OS, New Level didn’t follow the current trend in golf by chasing distance with the new iron. They actually weakened the lofts on the 480-DB with the spec sheet showing a 33-degree 7-iron and 45-degree pitching wedge. These lofts allow the DB to have less offset while still offering consistent distance off the face.

A traditional design was also at the forefront of the new irons to make sure that golfers with an eye for detail can look down at them with confidence that they will perform under any condition.

 

A weight low in the back cavity will allow their master club builders to dial in the perfect weight for the golfer, no matter the length or shaft being used. New Level believes that the new 480-DB is one of the most forgiving one-piece forged irons on the market today. A pre-worn leading edge on the sole should get through the turf quickly and with reduced digging for better turf interaction.

You can pre-order the New Level 480-DB right now on the New Level website.
