Research shows that 83% of a putt's starting direction is influenced by the direction of the putter face at impact (the other 17% is influenced by the path of the putter head). As such, Lie Angle Balance (L.A.B.) Technology takes into account lie, angle and weighting to create a putter that stays square to the arc throughout the stroke, delivering a square putter face at impact. Essentially, L.A.B has created a perfectly balanced putter, eliminated torque, and with no further adjustments, provided golfers with the ability to consistently repeat a putting stroke with far less effort.
The DF 2.1 is radically shaped to provide as much forgiveness as possible. The shape maximizes consistency on off center-hits, and if you happen to contact your putt off center, it won't really affect the result.
L.A.B. outfits their putters with their own Press Grips, and for good reason. Almost all of the best golfers in the world employ a forward press because it helps the ball track faster and roll truer while reducing unwanted skidding and backspin. Unfortunately, positioning your hands ahead of the ball is difficult to learn and execute. Press Grips establish forward lean through the grip design, eliminating another putting stroke variable.

If you haven’t heard of lie angle balance putters, you are very likely to in 2025. The newest trend in putters isn’t a fad and is here to stay, considering all of the options that have been produced in the past six months.
They might be called zero rotation, zero torque or lie angle balance, but no matter the name, they are all geared towards the same thing: Keeping the putter face on line and square to the target while limiting unnecessary rotation.
