The Record

Written from the sources it cites · machine-drafted for the Community to correct

The PLD Limited Ping Slam Pal is a limited run built around the Pal's history, and according to Australian Golf Digest, only 88 of each model in the Ping Slam collection were made. That outlet reports the Pal traces to 1971 and cites its most notable credential as the 1988 Masters, won by Sandy Lyle, part of a run the publication describes as more than 100 tour events, including six Major championships.

Per Australian Golf Digest's reporting, this release carries a shorter blade length than a standard Pal, in manganese bronze, precision-milled, perimeter-weighted, with an Anser hosel. The outlet also reports each putter was custom built by Ping WRX master craftsmen at the company's Phoenix headquarters and individually serialised for authenticity, with a custom headcover unique to each of the four Majors. Australian Golf Digest lists the release at 990 USD, with a release date of April 5 at 4am AEST.

Set against the rest of the Ping Slam line, the reported details position this Pal release as one of four Major-tied editions sharing the collection's format: the limited count, the serialisation, the Phoenix build, and the per-Major headcover. Everything above comes from Australian Golf Digest's reporting and hasn't been independently verified here.
