Who It’s For: Golfers who love classic-shaped putters and want help creating a more consistent roll.

The Skinny: These are dark-finished versions of traditional TaylorMade TP putters, with a Pure Roll insert designed to reduce skidding and encourage the ball to start rolling sooner.

The Deep Dive: When it comes to putters, TaylorMade struck gold with the Spider, and the Carlsbad, California, brand has turned out several different versions of the stable mallets over the last decade. However, TaylorMade’s TP line of putters has remained available for players who are not ready or willing to leave classic-shaped putters behind. In 2021, TaylorMade released the TP Hydroblast line, which featured a softened chrome finish, and in 2023 the TaylorMade rolled out the TP Reserve putters. Now, for 2024, it is bringing out the TP Black Collection.

If you are looking for the hottest new designs or the latest technological features, look somewhere else because the TP Black family features three heel-toe weighted blades, a compact mallet and two mid-size mallets that will all look familiar.

Each has been milled using 303 stainless steel for a softer feel, and all of the putters have black Pure Roll insert with grooves that point downward at a 45-degree angle. According to TaylorMade, the downward-facing grooves grab the back of the ball at impact and encourage it to start rolling instead of skidding and bouncing on the green, resulting in more consistency and better distance control.

The anodization process that adds the black finish helps the anti-glare look last longer, while the single white alignment on each head stands out easily and should help players aim the face more effectively.
