The problem with a discussion such as this is that you’re pretty much forced to go with a company whose Driver and Putter you are comfortable with. I love my Mizuno irons and hybrids, but I’ve never owned a Mizuno Driver, and other than a brief partnership with Bettenardi Putters, I don’t think Mizuno MAKES putters!!!

I am currently Callaway, but after attending the PGA Show, and hitting everything currently available, I am considering playing Ping. New irons and drivers very long and forgiving.

PXG without a doubt… even though I have never struck a ball with one of their clubs ha. Titleist does have the deepest bench of the top club companies, from driver to putter. But I still imagine those PXG irons being the best.

Tough one for me….Mizuno, Srixon or Ping are the irons I usually play but I don’t care for any of their woods, so I would probably go Callaway or Titleist being the most solid from top to bottom.

TITLEIST … for me, they produce quality equipment throughout the entire bag. Their drivers on through to the Vokey wedges and Scotty Cameron putter! For a second choice I would consider PING … but Titleist is my preferred equipment company!

Right now I’d have to say Callaway. I’m playing Apex irons and MD wedges, and that’s the biggest chunk of the bag. I think I could piece together woods, hybrids, and putter.

I would like to play 14 clubs…. and one from each of the many club makers. That would confuse everybody …. 😀

If I’m paying, it’s Ping.

But let’s be honest, shall we? If they were paying me, I’d take the best offer. The build quality is going to be excellent with any OEM.

Titielist…..all day everyday……while everyone else is making Vokey knock-offs and white/red colored Titleist wannabe’s, the illest continues to make the #1 wedges, the most solid and straight drivers, best feeling milled putters, and amazing Forged irons. There’s no comparison (+1 Mizuno, Srixon irons) for the total 14 club package.

A putter that I love and hate – Club Junkie Podcast

Brian Knudson

In this episode of the Club Junkie Podcast, we dive into one of the most interesting flatstick releases of the year with a full review of the new TaylorMade SYSTM 2 putters. After spending time on the greens, I break down what makes this design stand out, where it performs, and why it has me completely torn between loving it and fighting it. If you are into feel, alignment, and consistency, this is one you will want to hear about.

We also take a look at some of the putters in play on the PGA Tour last week. From familiar favorites to a few surprising setups, there is always something to learn from what the best players in the world are rolling with under pressure.

To wrap things up, I walk through the process of building a set of JP Golf Prime irons paired with Baddazz Gold Series shafts. From component selection to performance goals, this is a deep dive into what goes into creating a unique custom set and why this combo has been so intriguing.

I break down my first top 10 zero-torque putter rankings for 2026. From the biggest names in the category to a few under-the-radar surprises, I dive into what makes each of these putters stand out and how they performed. I have used every one of these putters on the list, both in practice and on the course.

Talk about feel, consistency, forgiveness, and of course, whether zero-torque technology actually delivers on its promise to help you start more putts on line. If you have been curious about making the switch or just want to know which models are leading the pack this year, this episode has you covered.

Did your favorite putter make the list?
