The short answer

MEZZ.1 pairs a compact winged mid-mallet with L.A.B. Golf’s balance system. Its useful performance must still be established through fit and testing.

MEZZ.1 combines a relatively familiar mallet outline and the manufacturer’s Lie Angle Balance construction.

The balancing claim

L.A.B. Golf says Lie Angle Balance reduces torque that would otherwise encourage the face to rotate during the stroke. The company includes MEZZ.1 in its Lie Angle Balanced range. This describes the club’s design; it does not guarantee aim, centre contact or pace.

Shape and construction

The official MEZZ.1 page presents it as a mid-mallet and explains current shaft and grip choices. Its winged outline offers a different view at address from the narrower LINK blade and the larger DF mallets. Start by checking whether that view helps you aim comfortably.

What changes with the build

Length and lie affect posture and sole position. Grip geometry affects hand placement, while alignment marks influence the picture at address. Check all of them when comparing two MEZZ.1 putters.

Test the design fairly

Use short straight putts for start line, then longer putts for pace. Record strike and typical dispersion. Compare against your present club in alternating sets. For help establishing the specification, use L.A.B. Golf’s remote process or arrange local putter fitting; contact Fix It Golf.

Verified MEZZ.1 construction

L.A.B. Golf says the current MEZZ.1 stock and custom heads are CNC machined from a 6061 aluminium body and a 303 stainless-steel midsection. The head has ten balancing weights: eight underneath and two at the sides. Those weights allow the factory to balance a build for its selected specification; they are not user-adjustment controls. The manufacturer’s current custom page is the right source for available choices. Compare the balance-and-testing explanation and the first-session setup guide.

Decision checkpoint: When two MEZZ.1 builds feel different, compare grip, shaft, length, lie and head-weight choice before attributing the difference to the shared head construction.
