What you should know: Ping’s new PLD Milled AS (Alternative Style) line adds three Oslo mallets to the PLD Milled family, with each being face-balanced for golfers who have a straight putting stroke.
The Deep Dive: Ping has been making customized putters for its Tour staff players for decades, and those clubs have been the highest expression of quality and ideal fit that the Phoenix, Arizona-based brand offers. For the game’s best players, nothing has ever been off the table. From unique alignment aids to customized shaping and the creation of unique finishes, the brand offers it all.
Back in 2016, Ping started its Putting Lab Design (PLD) program to let more golfers have access to higher-qualify putters, ranging from standard PLD clubs to 100 percent custom putters that matched the personalization levels offered to Viktor Hovland and Tony Finau.
The newest PLD offerings are the Milled AS Oslo models, putters that continue the high-quality tradition while focusing on golfers who prefer a straighter stroke and a more stable head shape.
The Oslo C is a clean, center-shafted design with no offset and a single alignment line that simplifies setup. The Oslo CB adds counterbalancing through a heavier head and a longer, 17-inch grip that helps reduce hand action and promotes a square face through impact. For golfers seeking maximum control, the Oslo L, which stretches to 47 inches and uses a two-piece grip, encourages a pendulum-style motion and reduces wrist hinge. It also allows golfers to stand up taller when they putt, which can ease back strain.
Across the lineup, the shallow-milled 303 stainless face delivers a slightly firmer sound and feel, along with immediate feedback, without harshness. Combined with the matte-black finish and long alignment lines, the PLD Milled AS Oslo family reflects Ping’s commitment to precision milling and Tour-level performance in shapes built for golfers who prize simplicity, stability, and feedback on the greens.
