The TaylorMade Truss TB1 putter is one of four models in unique range released in 2020.

The TB1 is accompanied by the TB2, the two blade options in the Truss range, as well as two mallets designs in the shape of the TM1 and TM2 putters.

TaylorMade have broken new ground with the launched of the Truss putters with what they describe as a “striking hosel design” – and they will be flat sticks which divide opinion.

What TaylorMade say about the Truss TB1 putter:

“It looks like nothing else, because it putts like nothing else. A striking hosel design engineered to increase stability in classically styled putters that look familiar at address.

“By creating multiple contact points along with the topline, the Truss hosel design reduces the amount of unsupported mass and deflection at impact.

“Truss putters were optically engineered to present a familiar look at address for players seeking more stability in a classic shape.

“The same Tour-Proven technology now in Cobalt Blue, Pure Roll inserts produce better sound and feel, while 45° grooves increase topspin to help the ball start and stay on its intended line.”

TaylorMade Truss TB1 Putter Design

One of two blade options of the TaylorMade Truss putters, the TB1 features the unique hosel and is heel shafted.

The hosel of the putter – and the other models in the range – has been designed with a never-before-seen shape that is triangular.

TaylorMade believe that the putter provides stability like never before, particularly on off-centre strikes, and will prevent twisting at the point of impact due to way it attaches to the putter head.

The Pure Roll insert is now thicker, and combines 45 degree grooves with a softer polymer. The striking cobalt blue colour creates a striking contrast to the chrome putter heads.

There are two adjustable sole weights to make it truly adaptable to every type of golfer in terms of putter stroke.

TaylorMade Truss TB1 Verdict

On pure performance, the TB1 putter is a high-quality blade which performs to the standard you come to expect of TaylorMade products.

The improved Pure Roll insert promotes forward roll, while the presence of the sole weights means it can be adapted to suit your putting stroke from straight to arc.

What will divide opinion is the triangular hosel. TaylorMade have gone left-field in the design, and it will mean golfers will either love it or hate it. It is all down to personal preference. What the hosel does do, looks aside, is make the TB1 a very stable putter.
