Latrobe: Toulon Golf launches its latest Small Batch putter
Toulon Golf’s latest Small Batch offering is inspired by Arnold Palmer’s iconic 8802-shape putter. It is bestowed the name “Latrobe” owing to the birthplace of the king — Latrobe, Pennsylvania.
The Small Batch Latrobe follows the Small Batch Dogwood, Montecito, Vista, Sea Island, and Santa Monica in Toulon Golf’s release of limited offerings.
In launching the putter, Toulon conceded the difficulty of designing and milling the iconic sleek flowing hosel design. The team went through several rounds of designing and prototyping to “get it just right” so the neck melts into the head.
In refining the design for modern use, Toulon points out that green speeds in 1964 were substantially slower — and the putter heads were substantially lighter. To better navigate today’s faster greens, Toulon and company increased the headweight to a modern 355 grams via a tungsten sole plate. For reference, the original 8802 was 310 grams.
Toulon Golf paid particular attention to crafting the flowing look of the putter from address with a particular focus on topline thickness and radius. In keeping with the original 8802 design, no alignment marks are present.
Toulon Golf Small Batch Latrobe specs
- Material: 904L stainless steel body

Right like to see how many of the voters actually have a $20,000 launch monitor. Don’t think anyone should be able to vote for one if they don’t use one. Both of these should not be in the polls not for the average golfer.

GC quad is good but if you ANY club data you need to put stickers on the club which makes it tough to use on course
