We have seen Scottie Scheffler testing out a few different putters from traditional blades to custom mallets recently.
At the Hero World Challenge, Scheffler has been spotted with another new putter, this time from a manufacturer many golfers may not be familiar with: Olson Putter Co. Started by Logan Olson, the company has been making some amazing custom putters for over seven years.
Olson’s putters have classic head shapes but are highly customized with a lot of cosmetic — and performance-enhancing — machining.
Recently, Olson took a break from posting much on social media or creating putters for customers, and people were concerned he was out of the business. Olson then posted a note explaining that he had the chance to work on something different, and now we see what that was.

Scottie Scheffler’s putter is custom-built and based off an Anser 2 or Newport 2 head shape. This means it is a traditional blade with sharper angles and a boxier look from address. The flange looks to be slightly extended from the face and has a single site line painted black on it. The top line has a very interesting alignment aid; it looks to be many small milling lines that run from the face to the flange to possibly frame the ball better.
Larger bumpers are slanted down towards the center cavity where “Logan Olson” is stamped in a dancing font and the “O”s are all circles with fancy “L”s in them. The neck looks to be one piece with the body of the putter as the milling around the base is very angled and complicated. A standard-length plumbers neck rises up and the corners of it look to be softened just a bit. The face has what looks like a shallow milling to it with the Olson logo on the heel.

The underside of the putter reveals a tri-sole stamped “343/303.” We can assume that the weight of the putter is 343 grams and it is milled from 303 stainless steel. Scottie’s name is also stamped into the sole, and another circle with an ornate L is stamped out on the toe.
