Breakthrough Golf Technology launches new Paradox zero-torque putters

There have been plenty of new zero-torque putters that hit the market this year, making it one of the hottest categories in golf equipment. Breakthrough Golf Technology, better known as BGT, is a pioneer in highly engineered stable putter shafts that have proven performance at all levels of golf. BGT took its understanding of putters and decided to design its own. But for a company with “technology” in its name, the putter had to be more than just another zero-torque option on the wall. New Paradox putters are here and packed with tech!

BGT used Principal Axis Technology to design its new Paradox putters to optimize the putter through the stroke dynamically. Now this is engineering and physics well beyond my basic understanding, but it is all used to make putters that perform better for all golfers. Instead of just focusing on the center of gravity and where the shaft enters the head, BGT looked at weight distribution and face balancing as well.

Paradox putters move the weight in the heel low while the weight in the toe is pushed higher up in the head. BGT calls this design Swing Balancing, and you can see it in the unique face shape that has a shorter heel and rises up at the toe. All of this is done to improve performance throughout the stroke, and in BGT’s testing, the company saw more made putts, missed putts that ended up 10 percent closer to the hole, and a ball that got into a true roll 20 percent faster. The weighting can also help golfers make center contact more frequently, ensuring better distance control.

Two putter shapes are available, the Paradox Blade and Paradox Mallet, to fit your alignment needs or personal looks preference. Each putter is milled from a block of aluminum, and milled steel weights are fixed to the toe and heel areas. A unique Paradox face milling is applied to give the putter a consistent roll and a nice soft feel.

The Paradox Mallet head comes off the scales at 365 grams and the Paradox Blade is slightly lighter at 355 grams. Both putters come with a Paradox graphite shaft but can be optioned with BGT’s very popular Stability Tour shaft that reduces twisting of the putter head through the stroke and at impact. Paradox putters are finished off with a BGT non-taper grip that is more of a midsize diameter, a little smaller than some traditional non-taper grips.

These new Paradox putters are available for pre-order on Breakthrough Golf Technology’s website right now and will be shipping out on 4/15. Each putter has a price of $499 and the Stability Tour shaft upgrade will increase the price to $699.

GolfWRX Staff

We’re proud to once again partner with 2nd Swing Golf to bring you GolfWRX Members Choice 2025! 2nd Swing has more than 150,000 new and pre-swung golf clubs available in six store locations and online. Check them out here.

What is the best driver in 2025? At GolfWRX, we take great pride in our online community and the cumulative knowledge and experience of our members. When it comes to the best driver of 2025, we want to know what our forum faithful think.

Since our founding in 2005, the bedrock of GolfWRX.com has been the community of passionate and knowledgeable golfers in our forums, and we put endless trust in the opinions of our GolfWRX members — the most knowledgeable community of golfers on the internet. No other group of golfers in the world tests golf clubs as frequently or as extensively, nor is armed with such in-depth information about the latest technology.

Below are the results of GolfWRX member voting for the 2025 best driver, along with the vote percentage for each club.

Best driver of 2025: The top 5

5. Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond: 6.02%

Callaway’s pitch: “For golfers looking for a fast, forgiving, yet workable driver, the Elyte Triple Diamond features a tour-inspired shape and is the preferred model by most Callaway tour players.”

You can read what other golfers are saying about the driver in the GolfWRX forums, and see our launch piece here. Shop the Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond here.

4. Ping G440 Max: 6.86%

Ping’s pitch: “The most forgiving G440 model, MAX has a hotter face to generate speed and distance, and a lighter overall system weight with a longer shaft (46″) for faster clubhead speed, higher launch and longer carries. The Free Hosel and Carbonfly Wrap crown save weight to create our lowest CG ever and increase forgiveness while contributing to a more muted, pleasing sound.”

3. Ping G440 LST: 9.53%

Ping’s pitch: “LST is an especially good fit for faster swings, offering less spin and more control with a penetrating trajectory. A hotter face, lighter overall system weight and longer shaft (46″) deliver more speed and distance while maintaining tight dispersion.”

@phizzy30: “Not a fan of Ping drivers in general, but 440 LST takes the cake. It’s super forgiving across the face for a low spin head, looks and sounds good and the ability to make it play neutral or slightly fade biased through the hosel settings is very appealing.”

2. Titleist GT3: 16.55%

Titleist’s pitch: “The GT3 Driver offers Titleist’s boldest combination of power and personalization through adjustable performance. Dial in the CG Track to your frequent contact location to make your biggest drives even bigger while taking total control over flight and shaping.”

@mrmikeac: “I’ve been Anti-Titleist for years and years and years (outside of Vokey, of course). With that being said, HOLY BEGEEZUS the GT3 driver is an absolute NUCLEAR MONSTER! This thing blew my G430 10K Max out of the water in every single category. Forgiveness is the biggest thing that stands out of me, the 3 model has always been one of the less forgiving models in the past but this GT3 can take bad shot after bad shot and still end up in the fairway, I think a ton of that has to do with the adjustability, it’s actually effective. Feel and sound is perfect, that solid crack is so addicting to hear and when you hit it out the screws this thing can absolutely bomb it. Titleist, I’m sorry for doubting you. You have converted me.”

1. Titleist GT2: 22.91%

Titleist’s pitch: “Delivering impressive distance from any impact point, the Titleist GT2 Driver extracts maximum performance through a forgiving design. Get the stability and added confidence of a high-MOI driver without sacrificing speed.”

@DTorres: “The Titleist GT2 has proven to be the best driver of the year. Packaged in a classic profile, GT2 perfectly balances performance and forgiveness while consistently being a high performer across all categories.”
