Special-edition Ping PLD Limited Pal 2 honors Jeff Sluman’s 1988 PGA Championship victory

Golf enthusiasts and collectors can own a part of Ping’s storied putter history with the release of the PLD Limited Pal 2 putter. The precision-milled putter is the second of four Ping putters being released this year to celebrate the brand’s achievement of winning all four major championships in 1988. The company is referring to the achievement as the “Ping Slam.”

The fully machined and custom-built putters are created by Ping WRX master craftsmen at the company’s headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona. Ping’s engineers and historians scoured the company archives to retain the integrity of the four classic designs during the milling process. They even visited the Ping Gold Putter Vault to study and analyze each model’s intricacies to ensure Karsten’s original designs remain intact.
