Three Swing Challenge: Testing the L.A.B. Golf DF3 putter
GolfWRX’s resident Club Junkie, Brian Knudson, puts the L.A.B. Golf DF3 putter to the test in our new Three Swing Challenge.
Why three swings?
Many years ago, the legendary Barney Adams, founder of Adams Golf, told us this:
“My formula as a fitter was three shots only. I discounted No. 1 just because it was the first one, counted 100 percent of No. 2, and discounted No. 3, because the player was starting to adjust.”
This is in line with our experience, and we believe golfers can make a meaningful judgment about a club in just a few swings.
Let us know what you want to see in the challenge next!

The first wedge has made its way to the Three Swing Challenge! This week we have the WedgeWorks A+ grind that was recently released by Vokey. BK is looking for a new 60-degree wedge, and this could be a contender.
