Jordan 9’s ?

The sound is a mess....tuned out..

Was a 60g stiff flex the only shaft weight and flex he had brought with him?

Edit this please

Good video. 3 years ago i sent in my video and got fit for a DF2.1, the ugly branding iron. The tech def works but couldn't get over the ugly looks. I wound up selling it on ebay. Since last year I've been gaming the Limited edition Jailbird Versa 380 counterbalanced putter. great on long putts but my short ones are being pulled left, mostly because i have a slight arc in my backstroke and the jailbird is face balanced. Def need to get a remote fitting for the DF3, if not this year than next spring.

You never tried any of the Titleist stock shafts for the GT why?

I’ve got the DF3. I just need the hat.

I hope to go for a fitting for a LAB putter later this year!

What did you think of the TPT shaft? I saw in the video it referenced the BGT and wasn't sure what that was.

whats your height bro?

Played Pumpkin Ridge a few weeks ago. Both courses are beautiful!

It’s no hype - DF3 Broomstick is for the win 🏆 🧹

Fantastic video - regardless of what putter you like the look of, the results here showed how much better you were putting with the LAB DF3. Interested to see how this impacts your handicap. Keep producing the great content!

Very informative Video. Thanks. As mentioned by others in this thread. You have a blade putter (toe hang putter) designed for more an Arc path of putting, vs LAB more face balanced (as you’ve mentioned straight back and through). 2 different styles IMO. Better comparo wld have been a faced up SC vs LAB. Great video nonetheless. I did try the DF3🎉🎉🎉

If the Scotty was at 72 deg on the Lie Angle instead of 70 deg, it would make a big difference. You didn't swing the Scotty as good as you did the DF3 so It seemed to be at a disadvantage because of the fitting you went through with DF3. With the Scotty, you seemed stuck and didn't release the putter. You hit the Scotty better from 15ft but still stuck and mostly off the heal on the strikes. Hit DF3 better from 15 ft but seems to let if swing better than the scotty and not sure if that's weight or the balancing.

I really don't care what anyone says on any putting video, I have used 2 different scotty Cameron's over a 20-year period, and I have never putted as well as I have in the past month since receiving my lab custom 2.1. I might not make every putt, but I have the confidence that I will. I will never touch another scotty or any other companies putters. I am officially a lab rat for life.

Calvin dud my video fitting, I didn't know who he was then but I am glad I got him. I will never touch another putter other than lab golf and I have only had my putter for less than a month. 2.1 custom, thank you.

It’s so crazy I was just on that putting green. Coaching high school boys State golf. Got to play a practice round with my player too. Still regret not getting in the LAB while I was there

Do you feel like that 4 degrees in lie angle helps you look over the ball more than the SC? I want to try a putter with a bigger lie angle. And curious to know why you didn't go for the Link 1.0?

This was a really fair test. You could definitely see how true that lab rolled for you.

No Black Barons!?

Love the fitting video and this one. The one question i have is "with how specific this putter is made for you, how would one ever buy one used?"

Talk about confirmation bias, this video is awesome! You can see the night and day difference in the “clout” putter vs one that actually helps you sink putts! Ordered my LAB at the beginning of June and I can’t wait for that sucker to show up!

Good video but you’re comparing apples to oranges. Phantom vs LAB would provide more equitable feedback for viewers to use as they see fit.

This fitter constantly saying, “Does that make sense” would drive me nuts!

Thanks for the insight here! I’m also a golf tinkerer and ordered one of these last week… may have to retire all the Scotty swag haha

Nice vid, QQ - even though both are 33” long you have a 70 deg lie angle on the Scotty vs 74 on the DF3. Did LAB fit you into 74, and if so, perhaps you would be more consistent with the Scotty bent up to 74 if that lie angle is a better match for you? I have a Link1 and I’m struggling with distance control, I think it might just be too heavy for me. I may consider a DF3 with lighter weight build, also checking out Edel fitting.

The fact that u been gaming the Scotty for years and u just whip the DF3 out with more consistency is impressive

No expert here, but just overall, mallet putters are far more stable than blades. I switched from a mallet to a SC blade and I can tell the difference. I like my SC and putt well with it. I think it's based on the putting skill level of the user. To the eye, the blade looks sleeker which psychologically enhances confidence, that's important too. For beginners, mallets should be the go-to.

Great video! How tall are you?

You found out like I did. LAB putter more consistent, even more so as time goes on. It takes time to get over compensation from using a anser style putter with head rotation

“That was me not the putter.” Sus.

I have done extensive testing all versions of lab putters versus my scotty newport 2 and i ended up making more and having better control with scotty. I think a lot of this depends on your stroke. People that struggle with putting will benefit from a lab, but more precise putters will not see the benefit - that was my finding. Lab makes great putters, but like all clubs, it may not be for everyone. I also found the lab (all versions) to have less feedback and distance control was not as good as my scotty. I do think there lab can help the majority of golfers with poor strokes, however, when you're dialed in with the putter, nothing beats the feel, balance, look, and framing of the ball than a scotty.

how does it match up to the TM spider tour?

I love the look of the lab blade

Looked like you were over rotating with Scotty. Get a little larger grip and you may see some of those left misses go in.

Sell the Scotty already can’t make anything with it lol

Great vid. The lab putter looks slick AF. Always love the content, Tinker. Keep it comin! 🙌🏼

Love this video. No frills really gives you the experience of being there

Trails is the most underrated course

Still need to make it out to Bandon Crossings after 4 Bandon Dunes Trips

i did the online fitting and discussed that back and forth with the fitter who was super responsive. Ended up with a DF3, TPT shaft in Platinum. Have played it now for a couple weeks and absolutely love it. 50 years of battling the figure 8 back swing is gone.. on rails. So good.

Not much available in Canada to try. Couldn't stomach spending that much or committing long term without trying. And definitely didn't want to get used since these are fitted for lie angle. Ended up with a jailbird mini after trying everything. Hopefully they become more popular and I can try some next time I need a putter (hopefully never)

Still believe they will end up all hype? If not, may have to rob a bank 2 get 1?

put a scotty headcover on them LOL

So glad you had a chance to play Bandon's "Other" course! It's a privately owned Public course that welcomes all players and is well-loved by locals, including many of the caddies and employees from the big resort down the road. Just to brag, GOLF magazine listed it in the Top 100 courses in the US under $150.

Bucket list ish

What happened to the other guy on hole 13? Looks like he fell apart. 15:25

Best resort. Hands. Down!
