The first thing you need to know is that all putter shafts flex some amount during the stroke. This adds a variable to the putting stroke we’d rather not have. That’s why stiffer is better with putter shafts; the stiffer a putter shaft, the better it should perform. But there’s an important catch. Historically, golfers don’t put XXX-Stiff shafts in putters because they feel terrible and don’t provide good feedback. It’s hard to know where you’re contacting the ball on the putter face when your putter shaft feels like a tuning fork. And that muddied feedback hurts performance.
The good news is that in recent years, putter shafts have changed for the better. Today’s premium putter shafts use new technologies and constructions to radically increase stiffness without compromising the feedback golfers need to putt their best. We’ve spent a lot of time testing all the various putter shafts on the market, and we’ve narrowed it down to a handful of options that will cover just about anyone’s needs. Each of our offerings is a little different.
Here’s what you need to know about the upgrade shaft options we offer for MEZZ.1 MAX Custom, MEZZ.1 Custom, and DF 2.1 Custom.
Quite simply the best putter shaft we’ve ever tested.
L.A.B. Golf by TPT Golf putter shafts are created using an automated manufacturing process that continuously winds a single strip of carbon fiber in such a way that there are no overlaps or seams in the shaft.
The fiber is applied so that every fiber angle is “on-axis,” which means every fiber is working together in harmony. It’s essentially a one-piece construction, and this can be felt by golfers in the way the shaft moves and feels.
The first time Adam Scott tried this shaft, he called the feedback “instant.” It’s the first product we’ve tested that delivers both the highest level of consistency and the best feedback we’ve ever experienced.
ACCRA has developed a putter shaft specifically designed to enhance the technical attributes of L.A.B. Golf putters, targeting the importance of a consistent impact position utilizing the benefits of the MEZZ.1 MAX, MEZZ.1, and DF 2.1 putter heads. The result is a 140-gram shaft with a stiffer profile utilizing high-modulus materials to maintain feel.
Composite materials enable the design team to optimize the torque, balance point, and profile of the shaft to amplify the features of Lie Angle Balance putters. Only graphite materials enable dramatic manipulations of the specifications with a constant focus on feel.
The Breakthrough Golf Technology (BGT) Stability One Tour Spec is the first one-piece putter shaft from BGT, the company that changed everything about putter shafts.
Here’s the quick-and-dirty lowdown. BGT has always made some of the most consistent shafts in the game, but they’ve used a multi-material, multi-piece construction to do so so its putter shafts can fit on any putter.
With Stability One, the company has brought the same level of stability to a one-piece design that softens up the feel. This shaft doesn’t fit every putter, but luckily it does fit all L.A.B. Golf putters.
Oh, how we love LA Golf putter shafts. The P-Series is a multi-material putter shaft that uses a combination of space-age materials like ZYLON with carbon fiber to create an extremely stiff putter shaft that feels like the inside of a York Peppermint Patty at impact: gooey… and minty refreshing!
LA Golf created this product with The Golf Scientist himself, who’s currently gaming it in his Arm-Lock. it’s available in two weights: 135 grams for standard-length putters and 180 grams for ArmLocks and broomsticks. Both have a wonderful matte look to them.
L.A.B. Golf By TPT Golf putter shafts are also available for ArmLock and Broomstick putters.
This putter shaft is currently used by Adam Scott for its “instant feedback” and maximum stability.
It’s perfectly round and perfectly straight thanks to TPT’s automated manufacturing process, which uses machines to continuously wind a single strip of carbon fiber in such a way that there are no overlaps or seams.
There’s nothing else like it in any material or at any price point.
We worked with ACCRA to create a putter shaft that would specifically improve the performance of L.A.B. Golf ArmLock and Broomstick putters. This shaft weighs about 180 grams (depending on length). It has a stiff profile to improve stability and is made with high-modulus materials that improve feel.
Composite materials enable the design team to optimize the torque, balance point, and profile of the shaft to amplify the features of Lie Angle Balance putters. Only graphite materials enable dramatic manipulations of the specifications with a constant focus on feel.
This is a beast of a long putter shaft! As we mentioned previously, LA Golf created this product with The Golf Scientist himself, who’s currently gaming it in his Arm-Lock.
This super stiff putter shaft will give you all the stability you need in your ArmLock or Broomstick… with a super soft feel that will make you wonder why it wasn’t in your putter sooner.
Upgrade putter shafts aren’t just for short-putter people anymore. BGT has changed the game with a Stability Tour Long putter shaft to bring radical stability to ArmLock and Broomstick putters.
The BGT Stability Tour Long is made with the same premium materials as the BGT Stability Tour Black and has been optimized for the needs of long-putter folks. If you’re looking to build the ultimate ArmLock or Broomstick, you’ve found your putter shaft.
