    Just wondering if anyone has been fitted for a L.A.B. putter? Or if anyone is playing with one at the moment. Would like to hear some feedback on them

    I haven't seen anyone in Ireland using one yet. Was over in Florida a couple of years ago and tried them out in a big store store.

    Really interesting clubs to putt with and the neutral balance thing is pretty cool.

    I see they're offering 20% off at the moment and they do some sort of online fitting where you send them some details and videos of your putting stroke

    Ya I saw the online fitting but if I was going spending that money I’d want to have an in person fitting. I looked up their website and it turns out there is a guy in Dublin that specialises in LAB fittings. Going up to him in January.

    They are on the pricey side alright, but the technology does make a lot of sense. Haven’t heard of anyone with anything bad to say about them, except maybe pace control can sometimes suffers at the start.

    Sigmoid HQ had a rake of putters available plus an adjustable Lab putter that I was looking at yesterday. I played on the sim with a mate and putted with a number of different putters while having a coffee afterwards. I believe they do custom putter fittings there. https://sigmoidhq.com/

    So as it turns out the fitting was at sigmoid.! I have mixed feelings after it, as it wasn’t really a fitting at all. I had specifically stated I was coming up for a LAB fitting. When I arrived the Link(blade) putter was not there, nor was the mezz. The fitter told me he had more at home, which was no real use to me.

    I hit 5 putts on the Sam Puttlab and was told that the way I present the face at impact is very very good, which was a surprise. My lie and and loft on my putter was changed and was givin a few tips on my set up position and was told to go and practise these and I should see better results.

    Now as stated I specifically travelled 2and a half hours up and 2and half hours back for a LAB fitting. The guy doing the fitting told me, that he’d love to sell me a putter but didn’t think it would make any difference.

    While I appreciate his honesty, I still would have like to have see that data, against my own putter and at least seen for myself that the differences.

    I left unhappy at the whole experience to be honest, as I was very interested to be put through a whole LAB fitting experience.
