One thing I have not been able to own for my golf game has been conventional zero torque putter sleep.
I never considered myself a bad striker, but I never really thought about as a force. So when Golf Laboratory Oz.1i Putter came out, a zero torque putter that didn’t look like a spaceship and had a feeling similar to what I am used to, I thought I should give it a shot.
This lasted only a few holes as, as my colleague Johnny Wunder described, I could not hit the hole from 10 meters. With most zero chains, not just lab models, I get them and almost immediately get a case of traction.
But when Lab issued a cleansing configuration of Oz.1i, I jumped the opportunity to try it.
Why impatience? I’ve never used one before cleansing, brooming, tall Or whatever you want to call it, but whenever I enter my premises PGA Tour SuperstoreI always like to grab the long themes they have and try them. Whenever I leave, thinking there was something in the method.
Second, I understand that if I try a cleansing, it will have no impact on my conventional placement. Unlike a counter -entertainment configuration, which is another feeling of the same stroke, a cleansing of the cleansing is a completely different composition, attitude and stroke. I have to be able to go back and forth between styles with little adjustment to feel.
Third, we have clearly seen how style has revived the career of Lucas Glover and Adam Scott has continued to be relevant using a long coat nearly 10 years later Prohibition of anchor.
Adapting to a laboratory golf cleaners
Lab Golf makes the process to fit for a cleansing (what they call a long holder), very simple and you can do it online.
You simply record both videos below the line (after your target line) and confront (from before you), taking blows with your driver (i.e. your longest club) and send them to one of the lab assemblies and they will specify you a putter.

There are two different styles of using a broom putter. The first is a slightly shorter tight, where you get more bent and show your lead elbow on the target. Adam Scott uses this method.
The other is like Berhnard Langer, who stays right, uses a longer pawr 48 and directs the blow with his trail wing than his shoulders.
Initially I thought I would use the Langer method as this felt more natural with the easiest driver. However, I was specified for an extension of 46 ″ in a 79.5˚ lie, the highest allowed.
My first ‘aha’ moment with a broom
When I first got putter, I initially thought it was too short, despite the fact that I am not so tall and most brooms are not much longer than 46.
I quickly realized that, due to the extra weight compared to my driver, I would actually end up setting it as scott, more bent and driving with shoulders and pect’d putter for me was very comfortable for that.
Does a broom putter right for you? Here’s what you need to know
The movement of the cleansing is much different than the movement of a conventional bed only due to the full weight. Not only is the axis much longer, heavier and has a heavier control, but the head is also significantly heavier.
Because of this, it took me some time to properly find the right configuration to produce a repeated blow that took the end of the ball over the bottom. My results in my placement and out under a string were not excellent.
But something interesting happened when I took Pitter in the course for the first time. After the first pair of holes, I did almost everything I saw. I was playing in a media day clash in the Bay Seaview course in New Jersey ahead of Shoprite Lpga Classic, and while I would put the second in the triple, I made a 10-party in our fifth hole, a discount breaking 20 pedestrians in our eighth hole, a 30-foot for Eagle in our 13th.
Of course, I saw to see the line in every blow, which certainly helped and there were some strokes that I would classify as “strange”, but the fact that I made a lot of strokes drew my attention.

I didn’t keep the broom in the bag, but I kept it in my living room, constantly rotating with it, trying to get the feeling.
Then I took it back this weekend and posted a 72, my best round a month after starting the year on a constant train of 78 and 79.
Where I stay in the broom

Lab golf oz.1i Putter
Zero torque. Zero compromise. Mezza.1 Max makes it easy for every golf player to benefit from the balance of the lying angle. It looks pretty like a normal putter. But it actually helps you to hit. Mezza.1 Stock Max is a new large curse putter that is fully CNC processed by a billet of 6061 aircraft aluminum (body) and 303 stainless steel (midsection) to create wild stability. It includes 10 weights (eight at the bottom, two on the sides) that allow us to individually build each confusion in the exact specifications of a golf.

Even after that rigid round, where I had a 30 useful stroke and made three strokes from outside 10 legs, I am not ready to engage in full time.
But I’m also not ready to exclude it.
Thankfully, the Y-Word-Yip-It is not in my vocabulary and my wars over the green are not really related to three acne, but more simply not making enough strokes.
Players who have to try a broom are players who need a full departure from conventional placement, something completely different because they suffer from the word y.
While I am not in that place, I will keep the broom useful so that I can continue to be calm with it. Because maybe, one day I will be touched by the word y, or maybe i will overcome short with the broom.
This can be a fun day.
