PXG has expanded its putter lineup with the PXG Torpedo ZT Putter, a new model that brings Zero Torque technology to the company's popular Torpedo design. Announced via NEWMEDIAWIRE, the Torpedo ZT combines a familiar high-stability mallet profile with engineering intended to help golfers keep the putter face square to the path throughout the stroke. The move matters because it addresses a common challenge for players of all levels: managing face rotation. By minimizing twisting, the putter allows golfers to focus more on line and speed, potentially leading to more consistent putting performance.
At the heart of the Torpedo ZT is an Onset Hosel that positions the shaft axis just above and extremely close to the putter's center of gravity (CG). This geometry creates a toe-up balance point and reduces twisting forces during the stroke, helping maintain a more consistent face angle through impact. "With Torpedo ZT, we wanted to bring Zero Torque performance to a shape golfers already know and love," said Matt Andrews, PXG Design Engineer. "The relationship between the shaft axis and center of gravity is key. By positioning them extremely close together, we reduce the putter's tendency to twist during the stroke. That gives golfers less face rotation to manage and more freedom to focus on the line and speed of the putt." The hosel also incorporates an integrated 1-degree forward press, positioning the hands naturally at address. While the putter has 4 degrees of measured loft, this configuration allows it to play like a traditional 3-degree putter, supporting consistent face delivery.
The Torpedo ZT's two-piece construction pairs a precision-milled 303 stainless steel front section with a lightweight 6061 aluminum rear body. This combination allows engineers to precisely position the CG for Zero Torque performance while distributing mass farther from the CG to increase moment of inertia (MOI) and forgiveness. PXG's Pyramid Milled Face Pattern features milling geometry optimized for consistent interaction with golf ball dimples. The design promotes consistent roll characteristics while delivering the soft, satisfying sound of an insert putter with the responsiveness of a precision-milled face. A full center sight line provides a clear alignment reference at address, while the larger footprint makes room for the integrated Pick-Up Pocket, a customer favorite. Two interchangeable sole weights allow golfers to fine-tune head weight to suit preferred feel and stroke tendencies. Through PXG's Precision Weighting Technology, the Torpedo ZT offers an adjustable head weight range of 357g to 392g, with a stock head weight of 370g.
The Torpedo ZT Putter is available in both right- and left-handed models for $449.99 at PXG Retail Stores, online at www.PXG.com, and through select fitting and retail partners worldwide.

The launch underscores PXG's commitment to applying advanced technology to proven designs, offering golfers a blend of stability and familiarity that could translate to improved performance on the greens.
