L.A.B. Golf OZ.1i HS – Adam Scott’s favorite, now heel-shafted

In short: L.A.B. has taken its most classic mallet, the OZ.1i, and released it in a heel-shafted version – without compromising the brand’s unique Lie Angle Balance technology (zero torque).

Thanks to a specially designed aluminum component, the shaft can be mounted in the heel while still aligning through the head’s center of gravity. This keeps the face neutral throughout the entire putting stroke.

The result is a more traditional look at address for players who prefer heel insertion, with the same stability and consistent start line that characterize L.A.B.

Why is everyone talking about it?

Adam Scott’s signature. The OZ series was developed in collaboration with the 2013 Masters champion, Adam Scott, who long sought a more timeless, classic shape.

With the HS (heel-shafted) version, he has put the model back in his bag.

Zero torque without compromise. Thanks to the specially engineered aluminum piece, L.A.B. retains its Lie Angle Balance technology even with a heel-mounted shaft – something that used to be hard to achieve.

A more classic feel. The OZ.1i HS offers a sight picture and alignment reminiscent of traditional mallets, while keeping the stability and forgiveness L.A.B. is known for.

Who is it for?

Golfers who’ve wanted to try L.A.B. but hesitated over center-shafted models.

Players looking to reduce face rotation and achieve a consistent start line – without overhauling their stroke.

Anyone who prefers a clean look behind the ball and a stable feel through impact.

Technical highlights

Behind the headlines: Scott’s switch back to a short putter

Ahead of this autumn’s marquee events, Adam Scott made news by shelving the long putter and switching to a short L.A.B. OZ.1i HS – in a design he helped develop.

It clearly shows that the HS version now delivers both the classic look and the stability he was after.
