Rickie Fowler Confesses: Why I Quit Using the L.A.B. Putter

Rickie Fowler is making big moves in 2026, but his biggest change isn't a new club—it’s an old one. After experimenting with the "Zero Torque" technology of the L.A.B. Golf DF3, Rickie has officially ditched the high-tech mallet and returned to the putter that helped him find his best form: a 14-year-old Scotty Cameron Golo. In this video, we analyze Rickie’s comments from the 2026 Houston Open, where he explains why "feel and rhythm" finally outweighed the technical benefits of the L.A.B. putter. We look at the stats: Is he actually putting better with the old Scotty? And what can we, on the journey to Scratch at 50, learn about the dangers of chasing "magic wand" equipment versus trusting our natural stroke? What we cover: Why the L.A.B. DF3 didn't work for Rickie's specific rhythm. The "Center-Shaft" secret: Why the 2012 Scotty Cameron Golo is back in the bag. Rickie's 2026 putting stats since making the switch at TGL in January. Should you stick with "Zero Torque" or go back to a classic blade/mallet? #RickieFowler, #GolfEquipment, #ScottyCameron, #LABGolf, #PGAStore, #GolfNews, #ScratchAt50, #PuttingTips, Rickie Fowler, Rickie Fowler putter 2026, L.A.B.
