One maker.
One obsession.
Adam David Putters exists because two obsessions finally met: composite materials engineering, and a lifetime in golf.
I’m Adam, an engineer and a golfer, and unusually serious about both. My PhD research tackled problems in composite aircraft structures, developing new material principles in the lab to address them. That work won multiple awards at international conferences and was selected for presentation in Parliament. Golf has run alongside engineering my whole life: I grew up as my club’s junior captain, and I play off a single‑figure handicap today.
The idea arrived partway through my PhD. I was working with composite materials every day, and I began to see how the two halves of my life could meet in a workshop of my own: a putter built on the materials I understand best, and a craft I would love building a business around. One thing was clear from the start.
It had to be unique, my own design, and something I truly believed in.
So the design began where my experience runs deepest. The more you treat a putter as an engineering problem, the more sense carbon fibre makes: a putter’s head weight is a fixed budget, roughly the 350 grams your feel is calibrated to, and every gram spent on structure is a gram that can’t be spent on performance. A carbon fibre structure spends as little of that budget as possible on necessity, so it can be invested in high‑density weights placed for maximum stability and forgiveness. The full thinking is on the putter page.
Where this is going
I’m currently on the second carbon fibre prototype, perfecting the manufacturing process so that every putter in the first run meets the standard I’m happy to put my name on.
The first run will be small: fifty putters, made to order, one at a time. If you’d like one of them, the waitlist is where it starts.
