Adam Scott speaks on new L.A.B. “Mezz.1 Proto” putter at the 2022 WM Phoenix Open
For 2022, Adam Scott is no longer a full Titleist staffer, but he still has a golf ball, glove, and shoe deal.
When he showed up to the 2022 Waste Management Phoenix Open, I was curious to see if he’d have any new gear in the bag due to the new deal, and whether he changed out his 1-of-1 custom Titleist 681.AS irons. As it turns out, Scott has stuck with the new irons, and has 13-of-14 Titleist clubs in the bag.
Make sure to check out his full bag here in the forums.
“I’m not changing much, or need to,” Scott told GolfWRX. “I’m happy with my setup.”
The lone club in the bag that isn’t Titleist, though, is a new L.A.B. Golf Mezz.1 Proto putter that Scott put in play last weekend at the Slync.io Dubai Desert Classic.
Scott, who prefers to use a long putter in the broomstick style, has experimented with L.A.B.’s original Directed Force putter design in the past, and he used an Armlock version of the original Directed Force head for multiple rounds in Dubai.
This is a new design from L.A.B. that’s a bit sleeker in profile, however.
This week at the 2022 Waste Management Phoenix Open, GolfWRX caught up with Scott to see what’s in his bag, and learn a bit about the new putter.
“I think they’ve refined their design with this new head,” Scott said. “The original head, that Directed Force, maybe was hard for a lot of people to adjust to the size of the head, and this new [Mezz.1 Proto] is smaller, but has the same benefits…I thought the technology in the original was good, but now with the new head design, it feels, looks, does all the things better than the original head for me…I’m looking forward to a week on pure greens to see what happens.”
L.A.B. putters are different than other putters on the market, because they’re engineered to have Lie Angle Balance, which is designed to help reduce torque throughout the stroke.
Scott’s new Mezz.1 Proto putter, in particular, has a raw aluminum finish and has 20 weights in the sole to ensure the head is properly weighted for broomstick and armlock versions.

Coolest thing for sale in the GolfWRX Classifieds (5/13/24): Full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs
At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals that all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.
It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.
Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, there is a listing for a full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs.
From the seller: (@CaymanS): “During the year of recovery from leg surgery that never quite healed, I was bored. One thing led to another, and I ended up gradually building/acquiring the individual pieces to complete a set of “Tiger Slam” clubs. They are what Tiger played to win 4 consecutive majors, which nobody has ever done. This is not an exact replica of course, but something close that fit me to play a few times per year and experience what Tiger did. But my bad leg, 4 shoulder tears, and age prevents me from the ball-striking needed to enjoy these to their fullest. They may not be everyone’s cup of tea, especially since the driver and fairway shafts are regular flex and most players good enough to play these will need to change them, but it’s not a perfect world. I am not a historian on this stuff, but my research indicates these are the same models Tiger used, with slightly different specs to fit me.
Full set $1,600, or…
…a donation for a Pro Kids fundraiser, or…
Driver: $70
Fairway: $250
Irons: $1,100
Wedges: $100
Putter: $350″

I have the standard Mezz. The eventual broomstick release is my next putter, can’t wait for us normal folk to get a chance to own one!!! That head looks killer in the raw metal look. I need to take a cold shower.
And if you haven’t tried putting broomstick, get on it!! Much easier on the back, and feels totally different than standard putting.

Grab the remote upon first sigting of any broomstick. Total disgrace.
