PLD Milled Tyne 4

The PLD Milled Tyne 4 arrived in 2022 as part of Ping's PLD Milled line, built on the Tyne 4 shape. pluggedingolf.com describes it as a fang-style putter with a flow neck for more toe hang, a configuration meant to suit players who like a bit of arc in their stroke.

Community sentiment on this release runs positive. One review noted the putter is milled from one piece of stainless steel, and pointed to strong on-course results, including two birdies made on par 3's during a first round with it. That same reviewer called out the feel and sound as great, and rated the putter highly, going so far as to call it worth the investment. General Community opinion elsewhere echoes the same themes, praising the one-piece milled construction along with the feel, sound, and performance.

Ping's own product page material describes the Tyne 4 as a straight-taper, midsized pistol shape with larger flat surfaces for increased face awareness, paired with a 17 inch grip that is heavier than standard to act as a counterweight for stability. That grip and shaping language applies to the Tyne 4 platform broadly rather than being specific to the 2022 PLD Milled release, but it describes the shape golfers were putting with that year.
