Has Dustin Johnson Got A New Putter?

When you think of Dustin Johnson, you immediately think Taylormade and for many years now he has been strolling the greens with a Spider putter in his hands but it appears there is a change in the bag, Has Dustin Johnson got a new putter?

On July 8th AFGolfStore visited the Centurion Golf Club for the 2023 LIV London event. With some of the world’s best golfers in action we were keen to familairise ourselves with some of the fan favourites including 2 time Major Champion, Dustin Johnson who appeared to have replaced the Spider putter he’s become known for using to a new Taylormade model. 

TAYLORMADE RESERVE

With Taylormade recently announcing the launch of their new premium putter range to rival the likes of Scotty Cameron, it would appear DJ is now playing the M21 edition.

P SERIES SOHO FROM LA GOLF

As one of the lead ambassadors for LA Golf it is no surprise to see Dustin rocking a P Series shaft along with his own DJ series driver shaft.

Breaking Boundaries –LA Golf’s engineers developed a shaft-over-hosel putter offering. The first of its kind, the SoHo provides the same level of stability as the traditional P-Series and accentuates feel, removes undesirable vibration, and reduces putter head oscillation.

Putting analysis software has proven that torsional deflection occurs on longer putts. The P-Series reduces unwanted deflection, keeping your putt from deviating from its intended line.

7 birdies on a storm threatened Saturday puts DJ 6 shots back on Cameron Smith going into the final round. 

The Taylormade TP Reserve series of putters are coming to store soon and can be customised the way you want as we have putter shafts of your choice including the P-Series from LA Golf available.

Each shaft is meticulously designed, taking into account factors like torque, flex, weight distribution, and kick point to optimise performance and suit a variety of swing styles.

LA Golf Shafts understands that golfers have diverse needs and preferences. As a result, they offer a wide range of shaft options to cater to various swing speeds and playing styles. Whether you’re seeking a high-launching, low-spinning driver shaft or a stable and responsive iron shaft, LA Golf Shafts has you covered.

What Our Customers Say

This was the first time ever I've been custom fitted for golf clubs. So I felt a bit nervous and under pressure. But once I got there everyone I came across was very really friendly and professional putting me at ease. The experience was amazing and very helpful putting me in the right direction to reducing my handicap to which I purchased some beautiful clubs irons/hybrid/woods and driver for what I believe to be a very reasonable price. No pressure selling or over selling with clubs you don't need. Only selling you what you need. When my son advances from junior golf clubs to adults I will be taking him straight to AFgolf Yaxley to get custom fitted and if I ever need any other clubs that's the only place I will now go from now on. I would highly highly recommend them to anyone at any level of playing golf
