What the brands claim Manufacturer claim

5 claims

L.A.B. Golf MEZZ.1 MAX

  • L.A.B. claims outrageous stability from the larger mid-mallet profile of the MEZZ.1 MAX.
  • The brand credits the precision-milled face with better distance control on the greens.
  • L.A.B. says eight sole weights let each MEZZ.1 MAX be built and balanced to one golfer's exact specs.

Odyssey Square 2 Square TRI-HOT Rossie Single Bend

  • Odyssey says over 140 g of tungsten puts more than 80 percent of the mass below the topline.
  • The zero-torque layout is claimed to hold the face square by sitting the shaft nearer the face.

The brands' words, summarised. Not tested by us, and they never change a verdict.

Our take Our assessment (based on published specs)

2 min read

Two takes on removing torque from the stroke, at two very different prices.

The MEZZ.1 MAX is a mid-mallet: Lie Angle Balanced, 6061 aluminium with a 303 stainless centre section, a milled face and no insert, 2.5° of loft and a 69° lie, with L.A.B.'s Press II 1.5 grip. Odyssey's Square 2 Square TRI-HOT Rossie is a full mallet at 365 g, built with more than 140 g of tungsten, an Ai-DUAL insert, 3.0° of loft and a 70° lie, and a shaft set at the heel. Odyssey publishes "90° toe up" for its balance; L.A.B. states Lie Angle Balance.

The Odyssey is right-handed only in this build; the MEZZ.1 MAX comes both ways. Lengths match at 33", 34" and 35".

Launch prices: $469 and $599.99.

L.A.B. doesn't publish a head weight for the standard build, which makes the one number you'd most want to compare here missing on one side. We say so rather than fill it in.
