True fanboy of LAB, as I have all of their putters. I’m gaming a broomstick DF.3, Amazing. I’ve dropped 6-7 strokes per round over the past 2 years and almost never 3 putt. We all spend a fortune $400-$500, or more, on our drivers, which we hit 12-13 times a round, but can’t imagine spending $500-$600 on a putter that we’ll hit 26-40 times per round! It’s over 40% of the time per round. Get a LAB Golf putter, only if you want to drop 5-7 strokes from your game!! Thanks for the Review!!
I've always been a pretty good putter. Put the DF3 in the bag recently, and it is next level. I've never putted or felt more comfortable over a putter. Absolute beast. It's so ridiculously easy to putter on line. Worth every penny.
I feel the exact same way about mine. I was hesitant at first due to the high price point. After receiving it, I feel like I've ripped them off... Absolute game changer of a putter.
Mezz 1 for me. Been playing it over a year and its removed alot of my 3 putts. I am totally sold on the Science and bit by bit so are the Pros on tour. I see Phil is rocking a Mezz 1. Great video and exactly what was needed.
I have a df3 for about 6 weeks and can confirm it is definitely a far better putter than my scotty phantom 7.5. 10ft and in I nearly can't miss, undoubtedly a game changer
@DanKingsford so the mezz is super compact and kind of looks small at address compared to the mezz max. Since the mezz max is 20% larger it is more stable and confidence inspiring. Make sure you splurge on the better shaft option. Tpt is expensive I know but at least the Accra one.
i have both, i like the df3 more because I can pick the ball up which helps with my bad back so saves me shots from holes 15/18 where my spine starts to ache lol.
I think the Mezz feels different because it's partially made with stainless steel, while the DF3 is completely made of aluminum. I tried out both at the PGA store and even though I like the look of the DF3 better I was putting better with the Mezz.
Wait. If you’re making all the putts with the DF3, you shouldn’t be able to use the ball picker-upper … 😂 I think they’re cool, I’m sure they work, but they are waaay out of my price range (full disclosure - I still have my beloved Callaway Tuttle in my bag). mygolfspy tested the LAB putters against other mallet and blade putters and found the LAB is a better putter from most distances. With PXG releasing the Allen, and Odyssey bringing back their take on the torqueless putter (look at their prior efforts with the Back Stryke, which pre-dates LAB) the no torque putters are the new hot commodity. Thanks for the great review.
I got the Odyssey Square 2 Square last weekend and love it. A lot of the pros of the Lab putters, with the added white hot ai one insert and half the price! I’d be interested to hear your thoughts if you try one out.
@bradhend curious if you tried LAB in comparison? I read the Ai insert gives more speed consistency vs how @breakingeighty mentioned the speed and distance is what made the LAB putters lose feel with distance. @breakingeighty one thing you didn't mention is that cost is much higher than $500 because unless you buy a stock putter which is limited to just two lengths and one Lie, you have to pay a $100 upcharge to get a different length, then upgrade the shaft it's another $100 ca-ching! Unlike what LAB claims, most other companies offer those options without a $100 upcharge. However, I agree with the review that the Mezz 1 just felt better when aligning and putting.
@@foredogg I’ve putt with a Lab df3 but only on a practice green. Never in round. I love the df3 and was planning to get one. But when I got the opportunity to get the S2S early I jumped on it and am very pleased. The ai insert does some to produce an excellent and consistent roll off the face. My distance control does seem improved.
Did you do any kind of fitting for your LABs or just go with stock that felt good compared to your previous putters? I feel like this is a huge component of LAB that’s going unmentioned in this review (prob bc it’s sponsored by GG).
Probably best to say now it’s reduced or minimal torque. Really no such thing as a true “zero” torque especially on the follow through stroke. Even on the revealer it’s anchored on the balance point but that’s not wear we hold it
I have a mezz and it’s the real deal. Yes price is expensive but you shouldn’t need another putter again. It will last you a very long time and that’s how you need to look at it
What would they ban here? It’s just a putter. People discuss the idea of banning broomsticks but I don’t see how they would ban these standard style LAB putters
@ they ban limit the “hotness” of drivers wedge grinds too much spin etc golf they will call it an unnatural advantage (not having to control club face) and boom banned
tested dint buy it yet and i would have to agree.. mezz is better for me too.. i hate the df3 i dont know why its not the shape.. maybe the feel.. coming from a guy who uses evnroll 1.2 daily.. i think i would wanna try evnroll zero first before going with team lab... any advice?

Can't wait for the OZ.1 review from lab
Mezz 1 for me. Been playing it over a year and its removed alot of my 3 putts. I am totally sold on the Science and bit by bit so are the Pros on tour. I see Phil is rocking a Mezz 1. Great video and exactly what was needed.
Would recommend trying the Mezz Max with the TPT or Accra shaft. Those shafts eliminated that tingy feel of the Mezz Max for me.
I have a df3 for about 6 weeks and can confirm it is definitely a far better putter than my scotty phantom 7.5. 10ft and in I nearly can't miss, undoubtedly a game changer
That's funny, I have the Phantom 7 and have been considering getting a DF3. Might have to just pull the trigger..
@OutofWaters just do it
I got fit for a mezz1 max Friday. Had a practice with it but first time out today. Struggled with a push on most of putts today.
@@jordanwebb6418 I too have a difficult time with alignment on my Mezz 1 Max.
LAB for the win. Hands down the #1 piece of golf equipment you can buy that will actually improve your scores.
There is an initial honeymoon period where everything goes in with the mezz. I really love my mezz max.
I’m looking to get a mezz why would one get a mezz one versus a Mezz max?
@DanKingsford so the mezz is super compact and kind of looks small at address compared to the mezz max. Since the mezz max is 20% larger it is more stable and confidence inspiring.
Make sure you splurge on the better shaft option. Tpt is expensive I know but at least the Accra one.
I like the Mezz designs better than the DF designs too. All the parallel lines help me with alignment... like a triple track on the putter.
i have both, i like the df3 more because I can pick the ball up which helps with my bad back so saves me shots from holes 15/18 where my spine starts to ache lol.
I think the Mezz feels different because it's partially made with stainless steel, while the DF3 is completely made of aluminum. I tried out both at the PGA store and even though I like the look of the DF3 better I was putting better with the Mezz.
Played Mezz Max 1 and Link 1 for 2 seasons. Sold them both. Lagging is like pissing in the wind..
Got my eye on the jailbird or Phantom 5S
Mezz1 for me - have never lined up putts as easily as with this one
Thank You I like your reviews and comments. I bounce between the DF3 and Mez Max, but thinking of a broom handle style. Thoughts???
I game the DF.3 in broomstick. It is crazy great for 3-5 foot putts. Lagging is also crazy good.
Maybe a LAB v. PXG Allan (or other) comparison on your fancy putting mat would be cool.
Wait. If you’re making all the putts with the DF3, you shouldn’t be able to use the ball picker-upper … 😂 I think they’re cool, I’m sure they work, but they are waaay out of my price range (full disclosure - I still have my beloved Callaway Tuttle in my bag).

Great review. Can you do the Allan from PXG next?
Have you tried the blade version? Interested in LAB, but would like to hear some others opinions.
I got the Odyssey Square 2 Square last weekend and love it. A lot of the pros of the Lab putters, with the added white hot ai one insert and half the price! I’d be interested to hear your thoughts if you try one out.
The S2S is definitely what I’m looking forward to!

What’s that crazy putting mat? What’s the cost? Hooks up to computer?
Have the mezz 1 max . It is almost like cheating. Has transformed my golf game. 8 .2 index. Shot 82 81 and 74 2 weeks ago .
I have link, mezz max , df3. Love all 3. But, DF3 is the one I’m taking when I’m playing to win $
The Mez1 felt better and I tried it at golf galaxy where I take lessons at
Aight bro, but now you gotta review the Link.1 because that's what I got lol
Mezz Max? Did you get to use it? From your understanding why would one want the max over the M1
Did you do any kind of fitting for your LABs or just go with stock that felt good compared to your previous putters? I feel like this is a huge component of LAB that’s going unmentioned in this review (prob bc it’s sponsored by GG).
I game the mezz max and I've never made more putts, it's deadly.
Probably best to say now it’s reduced or minimal torque. Really no such thing as a true “zero” torque especially on the follow through stroke.
Even on the revealer it’s anchored on the balance point but that’s not wear we hold it
6 rounds with the DF3 and 1 with the Mezz? Let see how you do with the next 5 rounds with the Mezz.
I have a mezz and it’s the real deal. Yes price is expensive but you shouldn’t need another putter again. It will last you a very long time and that’s how you need to look at it
Technology dont lie. Have a link1 and DF3. Sold my Mezz Max. I am a huge LAB believer
Link 1 vs df3? Which do you prefer?
@ I like them both! Only played 1 round with the link. I’ll get back to you
I switched from a mezz max to a 2001 odyssey 2 ball that was like 5 dollars at a garage sale 😂
What till you see oz1 thing of beauty
Are you a member at Pumpkin? We should trade rounds Reserve, and Pumpkin. =]
Odyssey putter compared to lab
can i buy your df3 off you if you like the mezz better plz plz !!
How LONG before this tech is banned by the powers that be? For some reason golf likes to ban hammer stuff real quick in the putter space
What would they ban here? It’s just a putter. People discuss the idea of banning broomsticks but I don’t see how they would ban these standard style LAB putters
@ they ban limit the “hotness” of drivers wedge grinds too much spin etc golf they will call it an unnatural advantage (not having to control club face) and boom banned
Without watching this I know the the DF3 is better.
How?
@@DanKingsfordit's all preference but the DF3 is more stable. I have or had them DF3 MEZZ Max and the Link.
If they work they work but god are they ugly
Their customer service is horrible.
Said no one, ever.
@ well I am saying it, my experience has been crap.
I can’t stand this guys voice or the way he talks
@@Aboomph8 there’s a million other TH-cam channels to watch. Lucky you.
@@bradhend just an opinion relax, I didn’t make it past a minute

They are very difficult to align so not for me🥲
