LAB DF3 is back in stock at Costco!

Surprised they are back in stock after all the drama between Costco and Lab Golf last year. $370 seems like a great price.

No customization and only in black but can't beat Costco's return policy if you don't like it.

Benching my Oz HS

I recently posted about struggling with pulling putts with my Oz hs and am very appreciative of all the help and advice I’ve gotten but at this point I think it’s mental. I’m considering using a traditional putter for a couple months to see if LAB isn’t for me. Has anyone else done something similar to this or should I just stick it out? For reference I’ve been gaming it since December and am a 9 handicap.

Anyone gone from DF3 back to Blade?

Been gaming the DF3 all year. Had some success but distance control has gotten out of whack. The softness off the face is bothering me a bit. Distance control in practice is pretty good.

Anyone gone back to blades or their old putter?

Scotty Phantom R11 OC vs Lab DF3

Does anyone have any experience with these two putters, perhaps been fitted for, or tested "side by side"?

Played a few rounds, taken a lesson, I am enjoying golf. Just got my first set of irons, but I need a putter. Got fitted, tested a few different options, mallets seemed better than blades (but not by much). 34inch felt right.

Do I get a DF3 stock as my first putter? Could snag a second-hand discount for about $360 USD.

Does anyone have a df3i weight setup for the heavier version? I want to change my weighting but I’m not sure if the ratios are the same. Has anyone taken the weights out to check?

Odyssey Square 2 Square Stripe lie angle?

I did the remote fitting with LAB and they put me at 69 degrees.

I was in Golf Galaxy putting with the Odyssey square 2 square putters and really enjoyed the Stripe version (similar look to DF3). The lie angle is at 72 degrees for that putter.

If I order the DF3.i or OZ1.i, should I order at 72 degrees? I just felt more comfortable and stable at that angle.

Counter-weighting (after market) Question…

I have the OZ.1i 2° press (LAB pistol press grip).

I mentioned to the shop fitter when we were setting up the specs for my custom order that I had installed a 75g CounterCore weight in my (now old) putter SS grip but that I didn’t like the idea of LAB’s counterbalance option (which is a longer grip with the weight extending above the hands) and he said “oh I’m glad you said that. We’ll make sure the Heavier head weight option is selected for ya…”

Honestly, I was so explicit with what I said and he’d never steered me wrong in all the money I’ve spent at that shop, and I felt I (obviously) wasn’t thinking clearly… so I just went with it.

Now it’s driving me insane (I have this uncertain and inconsistent take-back wobble) and I don’t really want to send it back in as I’m about to start hitting full in-season stride mode…

So I tested taping some old counter core weights (about 80g total) to my grip, and it felt instantly smoother.

I saw there’s a new SS Zenergy Pistol Press grip, but I don’t believe it has the CounterCore or tech slots sadly…

TLDR: Can weights (Like Tour Lock or something?) be installed directly in the butt of the ACCRA shafts with the 2° press and still maintain the full LAB properties? Anyone know of a CounterCore compatible option?

Hi everyone. I tried to look online for threads of anyone else who has regripped a DF 2.1 from the Press II 3° to a Press Pistol 2° but have not found much info, so figured I’d see if anyone here could help.

The larger grip size that came with the Press II 3° has been kind of a struggle for me. Although I have adjusted over time to getting comfortable, I have never fell in love with it. But I used one of my buddy’s LAB putter which was a different model (DF 3), and liked the feel of the press pistol grip instantly. However since it was also a different putter I’m not sure if that feeling will translate or if it will negatively impact the point of the 2.1 putter in the first place.

The only resource I found that directly addressed my question was LAB’s website which says the Press Pistol 2° can be paired with the DF 2.1, however it makes it clear that it is not usually paired with it.

This subreddit seems very knowledgeable on the topic so I was wondering if anyone has any reasons I should not try it or have any experience with this scenario. Thanks!

Trying to decide between the 2 and haven’t been able to see either in person at 0 lean.

Anyone have experience or an address / POV they care to share?

I’ve never been able to align the 2* option, looks closed to me no matter what I tried. Hoping the 0* might be the fix.

Has anyone had success using touch up paint on their lab? Specifically in the blue color way

Love lab putters but the paint comes off too easily (at least on the blue models)

New to lab, except playing around in golf galaxy and PGA store. I really like the DF3i stock in 38 inch/ counterbalance. Ive only been playing less than a year but have gotten pretty serious.

Should I do the video testing or just buy the stock 69 degree and use it for awhile until I get better and dial everything in? Where are the places to get tested? Is the video analysis good enough, especially with a beginning player. Scores 90-100. Thank you
