TP Reserve: TaylorMade putters go premium

Published

The new TaylorMade TP Reserve line “plants a flag” in the premium putter space with three blade and three mallet shapes for 2023.

TaylorMade engineers focused on precision, classic styling, and appealing aesthetics in crafting the line of 303 stainless steel putters, all of which feature machined-in grooves for crisp sound, feedback, and soft feel.

“There is a large bucket of golfers that love the look of a classic putter shape, and we took the time to carefully craft performance in a way that is a brand-new opportunity for us, said Bill Price,” TaylorMade’s Senior Director Product Creation, Putter & Wedge. “The story of TP Reserve is about style, craftsmanship and character which can be seen in every aspect of the putter. We sweated the details, received tour feedback and went with refined edges, thinner toplines, new flange thickness and blade length to create putters built off exactness instead of sameness.”

TP Reserve putters feature fine linear mill marks across the face and grooves machined to a specific depth for a finely tuned sound. According to the company, “grooves are machined in the same linear fashion with strike location from top-to-bottom and heel-to-toe, maintaining the same sound regardless of impact location.”

Each putter head presents four different fitting options via hosel designs. Hosel specifics and numerical designation, below.

L-Neck: No. 1
Small slant: No. 3
Single bend: No. 7
Flow neck: No. 9.

TaylorMade TP Reserve: The putters

B11, B13

TP Juno inspired with a thinner topline and longer blade length. B11 features an L-neck hosel, B13 a slant neck (and the most toe hang in the lineup).

B29

TP Soto inspired with a flow neck and machined bumpers for softer edges.

B31

Inspired by the TP Del Monte, the B31 features more weight on the heel and toe for higher MOI. Only blade with a soleplate in the lineup.

M21, M27

TP Bandon-inspired, high MOI design. M27 has a new mid-length single bend neck that is shorter, which puts the point where the shaft bends closer to the putter head.

M33, M37

A new shape in the TM line with thicker toplines than the M21 and M27 models. M33, which features a small slant hosel, has the most toe hang of any mallet in the lineup.

M47

Blade-mallet blend with the widest topline among the mallets.

Putters that never made it: Check out some of the best tour builds that didn’t make the cut

Arguably, the best perk of being a professional golfer on the PGA Tour is the ability to request or even just be handed pretty much any club you could think of. It happens more often than you think, usually with putters around the practice green from one event to the next. Come Wednesday, the Tour bags lining the edge of the putting surface become resting places for fallen flatsticks that never made the cut.

So let’s take a look at some of the best we’ve seen out on Tour this year that never made it to the competition. (You may notice none of Hideki Matsuyama’s custom Scotty Cameron putters made this list. There are too many.)

Let’s start with this custom Damascus Milled Odyssey Rossie made for Ryo Hisatsune. Featuring a single line and the short-slant hossel, we’ve seen plenty of Number 7 and jailbird heads featuring the Damascus Milled insert, but this is the first and only one we’ve spotted in a Rossie. Hisatsune primarily putts with an Odyssey Black Series iX #9, but we have seen him recently with a TaylorMade TP Collection SOTO, so there could be potential that the Damascus Milled Rossie could end up in the bag.

Everyone wants to be Cameron Young right now. We’ve had Justin Thomas and Tom Hoge both game the Scotty Cameron 9.5R prototype. Well, for the PGA Championship, Brooks Koepka nearly joined that list after requesting the same style of putter, with the full-length alignment line. But the Scotty Cameron reps took the request a step further and made one specially for Koepka with a Teryllium insert, similar to one in his previous Newport 2 gamers. The reason why this one didn’t go into play, though? Because it was too heavy.

Harry Hall was the third-best putter on Tour last year, so when Bettinardi made him a custom proto, you know it was going to be good. The custom BB28 blade features VDF face milling, a custom-welded single-bend shaft, and the owner’s initials – HH – on the sole of the putter. Hall, who usually games an Odyssey O-Works #7 W, has dabbled with a TaylorMade Spider Tour X already this year. Maybe there’s a chance this Bettinardi might make his bag.

Honestly, this one doesn’t need a description. It’s Kieth Mitchell’s custom Scotty Cameron Napa. One Scotty Cameron face stamp, two Scotty Dogs, two Scotty Cameron 7-Point Crowns and one Circle T. That is all. Oh, except for the Cashmere Cameron headcover.

Finally, and just for fun, how about we pour one out for this TaylorMade Spider Tour X made for Scottie Scheffler in its new torched finish. It’s unlikely we’ll see a putter change anytime soon from the best golfer in the world. In fact, he hit just two putts with it on the Harbour Town practice before going back to his trusty gamer.

Which of Tiger’s major winning irons are your favorite? – GolfWRXers discuss

In our forums, our members have been discussing their favorite major winning irons used by Tiger Woods. WRXer ‘golferdude54’ kicks off the thread saying:

“Mizuno MP 14/29. Titleist 681T. Nike Forged Blades. TaylorMade P7TW.

Among these irons that helped Tiger win 15 majors, which is your favorite in terms of looks?”

And our members have been naming their favorites and why in response.

Here are a couple of posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

SwingBlade: “I prefer the early blades he played and the more recent TM TW’s especially because after Tiger had his major behavioral setbacks, part of Nikes support payback was making Tiger play a Nike putter and cease using his beloved uniquely customized Scotty putter.”
ProjectX: “This (Nike Forged Blades) and there’s not even a close second.”
