- Iconic putter brand is a multi-award winner
Several months after launching its new range of range of putters, the industry’s most iconic Putter brand, Zebra Golf, has collected two major industry awards for its most famous putter head – the AIT1 mallet – with Editor’s Choice awards from two of the UK’s leading golf magazines, Golf Monthly and Today’s Golfer.
Praised for its distinctive striped alignment aids and confidence inspiring oversized head the model that most closely resembles the original Zebra design from the 1970s, is a face- balanced mallet that boosts MOI and forgiveness. A horseshoe-shaped soleplate lowers the centre of gravity, while two 15g weights in the toe and heel creates a highly stable head at impact.
Two years in the making, and with design input from some of the most experienced putter designers in the business, the AIT1 mallet headed putter is just one of four styles to carry the iconic Zebra name having been reinvented for the 21st century with high quality components and performance-enhancing design elements.
Every element of a Zebra putter, from the head shape to the face insert, has been rigorously tested using computer-generated Artificial Intelligence Technology to find the perfect MOI and centre of gravity locations to ensure maximum performance from every model, with no stone left unturned in the search for putting perfection.
In addition to the striped alignment system, each model also features a grooved face insert that precisely controls the friction at impact needed to deliver the correct amount of topspin to the golf ball to ensure consistent distance control across a wide portion of the face.
The grooves not only work with the stroke to impart topspin, but they also serve to lower the launch angle to minimize skidding and get the ball into the ‘roll phase’ more quickly, which is vital when controlling a putt’s overall distance.Each model also features adjustable weighting technology, with weight ports located in the sole that can be switched with a choice of different weights to change the weight of the head to suit your stroke. The sole weights, which are sold separately, are offered in 10g, 15g and 20g.
Leveraging all of Zebra’s impressive design heritage, including the Major-winning striped alignment system, the new range features three other modern head shapes, including a fang (AIT 2), high-MOI flange (AIT 3), and a wide-bodied blade (AIT 4), geared to suiting every putting stroke and every type of golfer.
