The Dogwood is the first post-Callaway Small Batch Toulon Design putter.The Toulon Design Dogwood features high-end steel construction and hand-polished finish.Available Aug. 24 at ToulonGolf.com with a MSRP of $2,000.
Today, Toulon Design is releasing the Dogwood putter, the latest in their Small Batch series of limited-edition putters. There are more than a couple of significant things about this release but, first, let’s explore the “Small Batch” label.
Small Batch putters are just that: made in small batches. Rather than being geared towards mass production, these putters represent explorations of what can be done with putter making when large production numbers are not required. Typically, the Small Batch putters also feature premium and sometimes unique materials.
I’ll use my favorite Small Batch putter, The Carbonetti Brooklyn, as an example. At its core, the Carbonetti Brooklyn is a Toulon Atlanta. What made this putter a Small Batch putter was that guitar maker Jimmy Carbonetti fashioned the putter’s sole plate from European elm, specifically from a tree that grew for a century and a half in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park.
That level of uniqueness is what Toulon Design’s Small Batch is all about—making a small batch of unique putters.
Checking out the Toulon Design Dogwood
Initially, I found the Dogwood a bit mysterious. If I’m being honest, I spent more than a few minutes trying to figure out where I had seen the Dogwood shape before. I couldn’t associate it with another putter.

Ever wonder why your next drive, after sinking a birdie putt, sucks? It’s either adrenaline or that demon in your brain that makes you feel invincible. Golfers all suffer from this problem after you make a perfect drive and step up for the next tee shot, expecting perfection. The pros do it, but you are not a pro. What should you do to avoid our physical or mental demise in order to duplicate excellence in every shot?
What is the Cause of a Poor Shot?
Mishits are caused by rushing our swing and tightening up our muscles. We tend to shorten our back swing and reduce the length of our outstretched arms. I have learned that power, when serving a tennis ball, comes from relaxed muscles and the same applies to our golf swing.
(a) A loose grip helps your arm, wrist and hand muscles relax and whip through the ball.
(b) Tight arm and shoulder muscles tend to shorten your swing arc and generate hits off the outer end and toe of your club face.
Scottie generates power and control by rotating his hips, shoulders, arms and wrists (as shown in “Mike’s 3D Life”). Slow down your backswing to give yourself more time for your best FULL rotation.
Rotation Fix
Because we shorten our swing arc when we try to hit our drives further, try setting up with your ball inside of the centerline of your club face by up to an inch.
–In the worst case: if your impact is at that inside point of your club face, you will lose about 10 yards on your drive. But if you are adding more power and swing speed, with tense muscles, you will most likely find more success with your driving distance by impacting your ball at the mid point or outer club face.
-Best of all: you will not be hunting for your ball in the rough or OB, after you at least connect with your ball with the outer part of your club face. Why not setup to err anywhere on the inside of your club face?
