CRESWELL, OR -- L.A.B. Golf’s new LINK.1 putter earned a Gold Medal in Golf Digest’s 2023 Hot List Best In Blade Putters Category.
“It’s validating to see L.A.B. Golf mentioned in the same breath as companies that have been winning these awards for decades,” said L.A.B. Golf CEO Sam Hahn. “There’s no question that the familiar shape of LINK.1 played a role in getting us this award because of the way this testing is done. It shows that lots of golfers are interested in our technology but were not necessarily on board with the weirdo shapes we came up with in the past.”
LINK.1 was a multi-year project based on a simple premise. The company aimed to create a putter that looked like the classic blade-style putters golfers know and love but also have it leverage the company’s Lie Angle Balance (L.A.B.) Technology, which eliminates torque so that a putter can stay square by itself throughout the stroke.
To bring Lie Angle Balance to LINK.1, the company hyper-engineered it from 303 Stainless Steel and developed a multi-material hosel connection that allows the putter to have a relatively traditional look while still being torque-free.
LINK.1 is 100% CNC Milled with four screws on the heel side and six on the toe side to offer a wide range of length and lie angle options. It’s 100% Made In the USA and built and balanced by L.A.B. Golf Craftsmen in our factory outside Eugene, Oregon.
