Product Spotlight: What is SIK Golf’s Descending Loft Technology and how can it help your putting

Unlike with the other 13 clubs in a golfer’s bag, truly new putter technology is something of a rarity. Sure, new shapes and different head designs hit the market, models come and go, and novel insert materials arise, but how often do you see a putter offering totally unique face technology? That’s just what SIK Golf — with its Descending Loft Technology (DLT) — offers in its family of putters. As you’d expect, Descending Loft Technology means the loft of the putter face “descends” from the top to the bottom of the face. More specifically, SIK putter faces feature four flat surfaces milled into the putter face with loft decreasing by one degree (4 degrees to 1) from surface to surface. The next logical question, of course, is “why? In a word: consistency. No golfer perfectly matches the putter’s shaft angle from address to impact consistently. This produces inconsistent launch angles off the putter face, which leads to poor distance control. DLT aims to remedy this by offering a more consistent launch regardless of shaft lean, and thus a ball that finishes closer to the hole. Speaking about DLT, a SIK representative said “Descending Loft Technology aims to correct for shaft lean variance from address to impact (whether by shaft manipulation or changing ball position). We have four flat surfaces on our putters that descend in loft from top to bottom. For example, if the ball slightly moves back in your stance (or you deloft the club) the ball will impact higher on the face. A traditional putter would launch the ball with a negative launch angle, DLT will launch it similarly to a clean center strike. The same is true in reverse. With DLT you are consistently delivering proper loft at impact.” Another notable offering from SIK: Any putter can be purchased with any neck. With five heads and six hosels, there’s no doubt an option for every golfer. Whether you want a Pro with a plumber’s neck, a DW with a swept neck, or a Flo with a double bend, you can have it. “We developed our C-Series heads to allow the consumer the maximum amount of customization in a standard setup,” said SIK director of communications Tyler Finley. “Normally if you like a head shape you are stuck with the hosel that it’s made with. We didn’t think that was a very good way of getting the best fit. So if you like a traditional blade look, you can choose a plumber’s neck, slant neck, swept neck, double bend or armlock hosel. The same is true across our entire line of putters.” More on the specifics of the SIK models below. Pro The most popular SIK design, the Pro is a classic anser-style putter. DW Similar to the Pro, the DW is double the width of that classic anser-style putter design, offering higher MOI and stability. Jo Slightly heavier than the Pro and Sho, from heel to toe, the Jo is slightly shorter than the Pro. Sho The half-moon-shaped Sho is Sik’s mid-mallet offering. Depending on the neck configuration, the Sho weighs between 350 and 370 grams. Flo A reworked version of SIK’s oversized Mo mallet, the Flo features high MOI and a low CG. It weighs just over 415 grams with a plumber’s neck, 390 grams with double bend, and 400 grams with a slant neck. Additionally, the Pro, DW, and Flo models are all available in armlock with a longer shaft (steel or LAGP graphite) and MX/SIK grip Incidentally, the SIK Pro C-Series Armlock is the model Bryson DeChambeau won the 2020 U.S. Open with and continues to put in play. The Pro and Jo models retail for $399, the DW and Sho for $429, and the Flo for $449. The Pro Armlock retails for $499, the DW Armlock for $529, and the Flo armlock for $549 (with a steel shaft; there’s an upcharge for the LAGP graphite shaft). To purchase or learn more click here.

Scottie Scheffler eyes return to No. 1 with flawless start in MexicoScottie Scheffler eyes return to No. 1 with flawless start in Mexico

November 3, 2022November 3, 2022| adminadmin| 0 Comment| 16:30

PLAYA DEL CARMEN, Mexico – Scottie Scheffler had a magical 2021-22 PGA TOUR campaign, and through the first round of the World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba, he’s re-kindled a little bit of Mexican magic from a year ago. Scheffler, who finished fourth at Mayakoba last season, opened this year’s edition with a bogey-free 65. He was tied for fifth when the morning wave finished Thursday at El Camaleón Golf Course. Will Gordon shot a 9-under 62 to take the early lead. “Solid golf. A clean card’s really nice,” said Scheffler, who made three birdies on both his front and back nine. The key part to Scheffler’s round, he said, was how he scrambled for par- after taking a drop he knocked his approach to just a few feet on the par-4 third – and how he followed that with a tee-ball on the par-3 fourth to gimmie range. “I felt like a lot of my birdies today I just hit it really close to the hole,” said Scheffler. “Like No. 4 was really close, No. 5 was a tap-in. No. 9 may have been the longest birdie putt I made today, and it was like seven feet. “I think when you’re hitting the ball well here, you’re going to get a ton of looks. I mean, the fairways are very narrow, but there’s a little bit of space. Really, you’ve just got to keep the ball in play. If you’re hitting fairways off the tee, the golf course will really open up for you. And you can get in some trouble in a hurry pretty much on any hole just because off the fairways is jungle.” Scheffler is grouped with Viktor Hovland, the two-time defending champion, for the first two rounds. Hovland, who shot a matching 6-under 65, went on a heater after making the turn – firing a 6-under 30 for his second nine holes. Scheffler said although “for the most part” he was trying to stay in his own zone, it was good to see Hovland score well. “It’s nice when you’re on the golf course and you can see other players hitting really good shots,” said Scheffler. “I think that’s good kind of momentum for the group, when somebody starts playing well, the other guys can kind of feed off of it sometimes.” With a win or solo second result this week Scheffler will return to No.1 in the Official World Golf Ranking after ceding it to Rory McIlroy two weeks ago, with McIlroy’s triumph at THE CJ CUP in South Carolina. But Scheffler’s still got 54 holes of golf left before he’s thinking about getting back to world number one. He’s relaxing this week after a long season that featured four wins and PGA TOUR Player of the Year honors. He took a Mexican cooking class Wednesday night with his wife Meredith, plus Max McGreevy and his fiancé – “I’ll get by,” he said about his cooking skills normally. “Last night was fun having them show us what to do.” – but came out alongside the two-time defending champion at Mayakoba to get himself firmly in the mix through 18 holes. Scheffler’s putting has been a question mark since his Masters triumph (he’s lost strokes on the greens in seven of his nine starts since then) but he said he had “solid” putts at THE CJ CUP, despite a T45 result, and more solid putts today – only needing 26. “Solid golf is fun. Stress-free,” said Scheffler. “If you can keep the ball in play, the golf course is gettable.” So, too, is the world number one ranking.
