Engineered for repeatability, built for performance
The Putting Paradox: Why 90% of Golfers Struggle With Consistency
Every weekend warrior knows the agony: that critical 6-foot putt that somehow always seems to break left when you swear it should go right. You’ve tried counterbalanced putters, oversized grips, even those expensive putting mats – yet the inconsistency persists. The dirty secret? Most grip designs actively work against your natural stroke mechanics.
Traditional tapered grips create uneven pressure points, forcing subtle compensations that vary with every putt. The L.A.B. Golf Press II 1.5° grip represents a fundamental rethinking of putting ergonomics – not through gimmicks, but through biomechanical precision that finally aligns equipment with human physiology.
Triple-Layer Engineering: A Microscopic Look at Golf’s Smartest Grip
Physical Architecture
- 10.5″ length – Optimal coverage for multiple hand positions
- 1″ flat front plane – Tactile alignment reference
- Minimal taper (1.4″→1.2″) – Eliminates grip pressure variables
- Textured PU surface – All-weather control without tackiness
Material Composition
- EVA foam underlayer – Vibration damping with responsive feedback
- Synthetic polyurethane outer – Durable, UV-resistant surface
- 59g total weight – Ideal for counterbalancing modern putter heads
Biomechanical Advantage
- 1.5° built-in tilt – Compensates for shaft lean in L.A.B. putters
- Neutral wrist position – Promotes pendulum motion
- Consistent pressure distribution – Eliminates “death grip” tendencies
How Press II 1.5° Stacks Up Against Industry Standards
| Feature | Press II 1.5° | SuperStroke Traxion | Golf Pride Pro Only |
|---|---|---|---|
| Core Performance | Biomechanically optimized tilt | Non-tapered design | Traditional taper |
| Stroke Consistency | Flat plane for repeatable alignment | Round profile | Round profile |
| Tour Validation | Used by 3 of top 10 in strokes gained: putting | Widely used | Limited tour use |
| Price Point | $24.49 | $29.99 | $19.99 |
The Hidden Cost of “Saving” on Grips
While cheaper alternatives exist, consider this: the average golfer makes ~30 putts per round. Over 50 rounds annually, that’s 1,500 repetitions with suboptimal equipment. The Press II 1.5° isn’t an expense – it’s an investment in muscle memory that pays dividends every time you avoid that dreaded three-putt.

The Yips
Missed 4-footers shake confidence
Band-Aid Solutions
New putters, same inconsistencies
The Revelation
Grip, not stroke, was the culprit
Transformation
Consistent setup → pure rolls
New Standard
Confidence over every putt
“Installing the Press II grip was like suddenly understanding a foreign language. My hands naturally find the same position every time, and those slight pushes/pulls have disappeared. It’s not magic – it’s just physics done right.”
Why Serious Golfers Choose L.A.B. Golf Putters and Accessories
For players serious about improving putting stats and reducing three-putts, the Press II 1.5° textured putter grip represents the intersection of tour-proven technology and accessible innovation. Unlike standard golf grips that force compensation, this high-performance putter grip works with your natural stroke mechanics.
Key Benefits for Your Game:
- Perfect for MEZZ.1 MAX, MEZZ.1, B.2, and BLāD.1 putters – Engineered as the ideal companion to L.A.B.’s lie-angle-balanced designs
- Superior texture for all conditions – Maintains consistent traction whether you’re playing in morning dew or afternoon heat
- Precision weighting (59g) – Balances modern putter heads without requiring additional counterweights
Technical Specifications at a Glance
- Length: 10.5 inches (optimal for multiple grip styles)
- Diameter: 1.4″ (top) → 1.2″ (bottom) minimal taper
- Material: EVA foam core with synthetic PU outer layer
- Texture: Aggressive but non-abrasive pattern
- Compatibility: Works with .580 and .600 putter shafts
The Unfair Advantage You’ve Been Missing
In a game where the difference between victory and defeat often comes down to a single putt, why trust your performance to outdated grip technology? The L.A.B. Golf Press II 1.5° textured putter grip isn’t just another accessory – it’s a fundamental rethinking of how hands interact with putters, backed by biomechanical research and proven on professional tours worldwide.
At $24.49, it’s less than the cost of a single golf lesson, yet delivers lasting improvements to your putting consistency, alignment accuracy, and most importantly – scoring confidence. The question isn’t whether you can afford this grip, but whether you can afford to keep missing those critical short putts.
