New Hovland Edition Putter Released by Ping: The PLD Milled SE DS72

Ping releases PLD Milled SE DS72 Hovland Edition putter


Norway’s Viktor Hovland arrived on the PGA Tour in 2019 having won the 2018 U.S. Amateur, been a star at Oklahoma State and been the low amateur in both the 2019 Masters and U.S. Open. With Hovland, accuracy off the tee and high-quality iron play was never an issue. But in his first season on the PGA Tour, he finished 115th in Strokes Gained: Putting (-0.048), and that won’t do.

Fast forward to this season and Hovland ranks 43rd in Strokes Gained: Putting. He has won six PGA Tour events, including the 2023 FedEx Cup, been a member of a winning European Ryder Cup team and won nearly $30 million in prize money. One of the clubs that helped him achieve that success has been his Ping PDL Milled DS72 putter.

Ping is now making a replica of Hovland’s exact putter available to the public in the same specs Hovland plays. The limited-edition PLD Milled SE DS72 Hovland Edition mid-mallet putter is milled from 1018 carbon steel and has a copper-toned patina finish. It comes standard with a head weight of 360 grams and has a single line on the thin topline to help with aiming the face. As with Hovland’s putter, it has 3 degrees of loft and is 35 inches in length.

While many milled putters have faces that feature circular milling marks, the hitting area of the PLD Milled SE DS72 Hovland Edition putter is smooth and delivers a firmer feel at impact. With a double-bend shaft, the putter is face-balanced and ideally suited for players who make a straight-back-straight-through stroke.

The PLD Milled SE DS72 Hovland Edition putter is available at authorized Ping retailers for $485.
