L.A.B. Golf unveils new MEZZ.2i putter in major upgrade to popular model

L.A.B. Golf has unveiled its new MEZZ.2i putter, bringing a significant refresh to one of the brand’s most recognisable designs as it continues to push the boundaries of zero-torque putting technology.

The MEZZ.2i marks the first major update to the original MEZZ in more than four years, with L.A.B. Golf focusing on improving the putter’s shape, feel and overall performance without losing the characteristics that made its predecessor so popular.

The new model builds on the success of the MEZZ.1, which has been used in more than 1,100 professional events since its introduction. 

Rather than starting from scratch, L.A.B. Golf has taken an established design and made a series of refinements based on Tour feedback and years of testing.

At first glance, the MEZZ.2i retains the distinctive fanged mid-mallet profile, but a more refined shape and updated sole geometry aim to improve stability and forgiveness.

One of the biggest changes comes in the feel department.

The putter is milled from 6061 aluminium and features a deep fly-milled 303 stainless-steel insert, which is designed to deliver a softer yet responsive sensation at impact.

L.A.B. Golf has also optimised the putter’s mass distribution in an effort to improve stability and face control, while expanded alignment options should give golfers greater confidence when standing over the ball.

Another practical addition is the introduction of two ball pickup options, making it easier for golfers to retrieve their ball without bending down.

As with the rest of the L.A.B. Golf range, the MEZZ.2i is built around the company’s Lie Angle Balance technology.

The concept is designed to eliminate torque from the putter, helping the face remain square to the intended putting path and reducing unwanted rotation throughout the stroke.

For golfers who struggle with inconsistent face control, this could be a particularly appealing feature, although finding the correct specifications and getting properly fitted remain important considerations.

Customisation is also a major part of the MEZZ.2i offering.

Golfers can tailor the putter to their preferences through a range of options, including lie angle, length, weight, shaft, grip, colour and alignment. 

Each putter is hand-balanced and assembled, with the manufacturing process involving up to 10 stages of craftsmanship.

L.A.B. Golf says the new model incorporates lessons learned from its more recent designs, alongside player feedback, to deliver a more refined version of a putter that has already enjoyed considerable success.

The MEZZ.2i is available now through the brand’s official website, with stock models priced at $499 and custom models starting at $599. Retail availability through partner stores is scheduled to begin on November 19.

Golfers can also explore remote fitting options and the available customisation choices through the L.A.B. Golf website.

GolfMagic will have a first-look review of the new L.A.B. Golf MEZZ.2i putter very soon, where we’ll take a closer look at its performance, feel and whether the latest refinements make it a worthy upgrade for golfers considering a zero-torque putter.
