PGA TOUR
About this episode

The folks at L.A.B. Golf believe that most golfers are using putters that aren’t helping them putt better. In fact, they believe that their putter styles are working against them.

Sam Hahn, the founder of L.A.B. Golf joins #OntheMark to talk with Mark Immelman about the L.A.B. Golf putters and how their Lie Angle Balance technology can help golfers improve their putting strokes and make more putts.

Hahn introduces the selection of L.A.B. putters and the PGA TOUR player that have changed their putting fortunes by using them. 

He also talks about:

  • The hallmark of great putting - returning the putter face to “square” at impact, or perpendicular to the target line and how LAB putters make that easier.
  • The research showing that 83% of a putt’s starting direction is influenced by the direction of the putter face at impact.
  • What is Lie Angle Balance Technology and the design of LAB putters with elements like Weighting, Shaft design and angle, Grip alignment and style.
  • The influence of Torque in the putting stroke, and on the putter face, and the elements in the LAB putters that reduce torque for more control.
  • "Torque Hangover" in putting and grip pressure for putter face control.
  • How Lie Angle Balance (L.A.B.) Technology makes it effortless for golfers to deliver a square putter face at impact.
  • How Lie Angle Balance allows a golfer to make a natural stroke with less mechanical effort to keep maintain an accurate Swing Path.

Improving your putting is the easiest way to lower your scores.  Download and listen as Sam Hahn illustrates how his L.A.B. putters can help you to make better, more consistent, more reliable putting strokes - strokes that will lead to more holed putts.
