Okay, so I’ve been seeing these “PLD” golf hats everywhere lately, and I finally caved and decided to figure out what the deal was. Turns out, it’s not as complicated as I thought!

First, I did a quick search. I saw that PLD stands for “Putting Lab Design”. I guess that makes sense – it’s all about putters, and those are pretty important.
My Deep Dive into the PLD World
I started by looking at some pictures of the hats online. They looked pretty sharp, so I was already * I checked out some golf forums. Lots of people were talking about how much they liked them. I even saw some posts mentioning that pro golfers on the big tours like PGA, DP World, and even LIV Golf, use PLD stuff.
- Looked at pictures online.
- Read some reviews and forum posts.
- Checked out prices.
After digging around,I was pretty much sold, finally, I got one of these hats.
It fits great, looks good, and now I feel like I’m part of the club (pun intended!). The quality feels really nice.
