PXG's Torpedo ZT centers the shaft at the head's balance point, chasing a mallet look with sharper feel and steadier distance control.
PXG's latest move in the mallet putter race lands with the Torpedo ZT, a zero-torque model that puts the shaft right at the heart of the head's balance. The company says this setup keeps the face square through the stroke and dials up feedback for players who want to feel every inch of the roll. The Torpedo ZT joined the Battle Ready II line on October 8, 2026, and comes in both right- and left-handed builds, according to Forbes.
The Torpedo ZT features a two-piece head construction: the front section is precision-milled from 303 stainless steel, while the rear is made from lightweight 6061 aluminum, optimizing both center of gravity and forgiveness.
Zero Torque, Real Feedback
Zero-torque putters often trade away feel for stability. Many end up dull, leaving players guessing at impact. PXG's answer: anchor the shaft at the center of gravity for a toe-up hang that keeps the face steady but still lets golfers sense the head moving through the ball. The Torpedo ZT also bakes in a one-degree forward press, so the grip and setup feel natural. Forbes reports the putter's loft at 4°, but the built-in press drops the effective loft at address to about 3°, which helps keep roll consistent.
On the green, the Torpedo ZT rolls soft but lively. The 303 stainless steel and PXG's Pyramid Milled Face Pattern combine for a balanced, responsive feel. Distance control holds up even on long lag putts, where other zero-torque models often fall flat. For players who trust their hands over formulas, the Torpedo ZT brings rare stability without killing feedback. The Pyramid Milled Face Pattern is tuned to work with the ball's dimples, blending a soft sound with the bite of a milled face, as National Club Golfer describes.
Classic Shape, Adjustable Weight
The Torpedo ZT also includes a central alignment line and an integrated Pick-Up Pocket, making it easier for golfers to line up putts and retrieve the ball from the green.
The Torpedo ZT sits in PXG's Battle Ready II line, which covers a wide range of head shapes and neck options, all with adjustable weighting. The build quality and lineup variety give club fitters and players plenty of room to dial in their fit. PXG backs buyers with a 30-day money-back return policy (minus shipping and a 12-percent restocking fee) and a 20-percent discount for veterans and those in the PXG for Heroes program. U.S. retail price is $449.99, with the U.K. at £429 and Japan listing it at 81,400 yen including tax, as confirmed by Forbes and PR Times.
