Our Experience
Having already received some of my best performance ever with the DF 2.1 from L.A.B. Golf, my expectations of the B.2 were high. Truthfully, I was hopefully that the B.2 could give me similar performance of the DF 2.1 because I have always found that I aim blade-style putter slightly more accurately than I do mallet shapes. Could the B.2 be a perfect balance of form and function?
The B.2 performed as well as advertised. I struggle to compare it to anything I have ever hit. It is a super stable blade putter that is effortless to swing. I found I could return the club face exactly on path back to my address positions. As an added bonus, I found my aim to be impeccable thanks to the custom lineup lines on the crown of the putter. Overall, I do think the B.2 is one of the most well-rounded blade putters I have ever hit. The B.2 putter bridges the gap perfectly for players that want to look at a blade but know they need the performance of more forgiving mallet putters.
