L.A.B. Golf introduces first run of all-new LINK.1 putter
L.A.B Golf has recently introduced its all-new LINK.1 putter, with 500 individually serialized putters available now ahead of its full release in 2023.
To bring Lie Angle Balance to LINK.1, L.A.B. Golf hyper-engineered it from 303 Stainless Steel, with the new addition 100% CNC Milled with four screws on the heel side and six on the toe side to offer a wide range of length and lie angle options.
“We created LINK.1 for every golfer that loves the idea of using this timeless shape but doesn’t make enough putts with it. LINK.1 is better for the simple reason that it has Lie Angle Balance and will stay square by itself like all L.A.B. Golf putters. We couldn’t be more excited about this launch, which is why we wanted to offer a first run for our die-hard fans.” – L.A.B. Golf CEO Sam Hahn
The putters are 100% Made In the USA and built and balanced by L.A.B. Golf Craftsmen in L.A.B. Golf’s new factory in Creswell, Oregon.
500 LINK.1 first one putters ($750) are now available through labgolf.com. The putters are available for standard lengths (28-38 inches) and lie angles from 65-75 degrees, and golfers have the choice of two different siteline options: a dot on the top line of the putter or a line in the cavity.

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.

Cool idea, but:
“L.A.B. Golf hyper-engineered it”
Gag me.

I like the idea but $750 is a bit much, I feel like more people would be willing to try it at about half that price.

That Link.1 looks like it would work well as a Surveying Instrument as does my P&SI-EGOS. Details on eBay.

Underrated comment, from someone in surveying.
On the Egos putter. It may look smart, but it feels like a gimmick. Must be a lot of force trying to twist that face, instead of just having it center shafted.
