L-R: the Daytona, the Monte Carlo, the Spider Mallet
TaylorMade Golf has announced the release of a new line of putters – the OS and OS CB putters – which feature a large, high moment of inertia (MOI) design, engineered to maximize stability and forgiveness. The designs expand the sweet spot on the putter and help with alignment. The OS models feature slightly larger head sizes than traditional putters while also delivering higher moment of inertia. For players seeking even more stability, the OS CB models are even larger in size, deliver higher moment of inertia and feature counterbalance technology to stabilize and smooth the putting stroke.
The OS and OS CB putters were first introduced to TaylorMade Tour staffers last November and are Tour proven. Both models will be available in three styles: Daytona blade, Monte Carlo mallet, and a newly-designed Spider Mallet featuring square trailing weight pads and a newly styled front blade. The three models are additionally distinguished by three distinct toe hang angles for a variety of putting styles. The Daytona hangs at 36°, the Monte Carlo at 20° and the Spider, face balanced (no toe hang).
Featuring a raised contrasting red sight line, the OS putters are easier to align than traditional blade putters and feature a new deep-milled 6061 aluminum insert. To take the insert to the next level, engineers vertically milled the aluminum insert to reduce backspin for better roll performance and promote a softer feel at impact. Aesthetically, two of the three models feature skim-milled surfaces (Daytona and Monte Carlo) that deliver true edges and sharp lines for an even more premium look, feel and finish.
“With the OS putters, we’ve combined thin wall casting technology with a high contrast sight line system for improved alignment in a more stable offering,” said Clay Long, TaylorMade’s Director of Putter Product Creation. “Everything we do is aimed at making the player better, and in this case, it’s delivering a product line that allows golfers to make more putts.”
Available at retail on March 18, all six models in the OS & OS CB putter lineup will be offered at CAD $249.99 and $299.99 (USD $219 and $249), respectively. The OS putters are available in 33”, 34” and 35” lengths with a SuperStroke Mid Slim 2.0 grip. The OS CB putters are available in 34.5”, 36” and 38” lengths with a 13.75” SuperStroke 2.0 XL-R 130g counterbalance grip. Daytona blade and Spider Mallet are available in both Right Hand and Left Hand, while the Monte Carlo mallet is available in Right Hand.
