Cleveland Heights, Ohio — Independent golf equipment testing has put Spoiler Golf firmly on the map. Following hands-on evaluation by Rick Shiels and the H.I.T. Golf team, the Spoiler Golf OG putter was named Best Putter of 2025, with Spoiler Golf also earning Best Value Putter of 2025 honors in the annual H.I.T. Awards—recognition driven by roll performance, visible feedback, and innovation, rather than brand size or marketing spend. The recognition places Spoiler Golf among the top-performing putter brands of 2025 despite being a young, independent company focused exclusively on putter design.

The H.I.T. Awards recognize top-performing golf equipment following independent testing and evaluation by Rick Shiels and the H.I.T. Golf team. The results were announced in a published awards video on the H.I.T. Golf YouTube channel – The Best Putters of The Year – H.I.T Awards.

Rick Shiels is one of the most widely followed voices in golf equipment media, known for independent testing, technical analysis, and transparent reviews trusted by millions of golfers worldwide.

Best Putter 2025 — Spoiler Golf OG

In naming the Spoiler Golf OG as Best Putter 2025, Shiels cited both performance and innovation:

“For me, the best putter of 2025 goes to the Spoiler Golf Silver OG.”

He noted the immediate impression the putter made during testing:

“This putter honestly caught my attention.”
“The roll you get off this is unbelievable.”

Shiels emphasized that the award reflected the broader concept behind the design:

“As an idea, as a concept, as something that really, really blew me away and impressed me this year — this is why I’ve given it Best Putter 2025.”

Looking ahead, he added:

“I believe this technology story is going to catch on. I really do.”

Best Value Putter 2025 — Spoiler Golf

Spoiler Golf also received Best Value Putter 2025, recognizing performance and technology relative to price in a category increasingly dominated by premium-priced equipment.

“The technology and the design of the head is very, very forward-thinking,” said Shiels, noting that Spoiler stood out when evaluated against the broader market.

Spoiler Golf Models

Spoiler OG Mallet
The OG Mallet features Spoiler’s distinctive Lead Edge Roll face design, engineered to promote earlier forward roll and reduce skid. The design delivers pure roll performance and clear feedback that helps golfers diagnose and refine their stroke over time.

Spoiler Riv Blade
The Riv Blade delivers the same pure roll technology in a traditional blade profile, offering precise feedback and consistent roll while maintaining a classic look at address.

“Winning both Best Putter and Best Value Putter just two years after launch is incredibly meaningful,” said Dan Landman, Founder of Spoiler Golf. “This recognition reinforces our belief that pure roll and precision feedback are what help golfers become better putters. We’re blown away and humbled by the recognition.”

Kim earns first win in nearly 16 years – Golf News https://ultragolfing.com/kim-earns-first-win-in-nearly-16-years-golf-news/ https://ultragolfing.com/kim-earns-first-win-in-nearly-16-years-golf-news/#respond Mon, 16 Feb 2026 00:59:46 +0000 https://ultragolfing.com/kim-earns-first-win-in-nearly-16-years-golf-news/
Anthony Kim completed one of the most inspirational and improbable comebacks that professional golf has ever seen, out-dueling Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau to win the individual title at LIV Golf Adelaide on Sunday.

After 12-1/2 years away from competitive play due to injuries and personal challenges, Kim returned in 2024 to join LIV Golf. He struggled early while trying to shed the rust and recapture the magic during his early years as a pro.

Thanks to his mantra of “1% better every day” determination, he’s shown dramatic improvement the last few months – and this week at The Grange, he completed the journey, proving that anything is possible.

Not only did Kim capture his first win of any kind in nearly 16 years, he did so while in the final group against two of the best players in the world who simply could not keep up with his iron play and hot putter.

“I’m very overwhelmed with this feeling right now,” said Kim, who began the week working out visa issues to get into Australia, then officially signed with 4Aces GC just before the tournament started.

“But my plan is to keep getting better and start winning some more trophies.”

Individual Top 10
1 (-23) – Anthony Kim, 4Aces (67-67-68-63)
2 (-20) – Jon Rahm, Legion XIII (68-63-66-71)
T3 (-17) – Bryson DeChambeau, Crushers (66-67-64-74); Tyrrell Hatton, Legion XIII (69-69-66-67); Peter Uihlein, RangeGoats (69-67-67-68)
T6 (-16) – Lucas Herbert, Ripper (71-65-67-69); Dean Burmester, Southern Guards (69-71-67-65)
T8 (-15) – Cameron Smith, Ripper (72-67-64-70); Sebastián Muñoz, Torque (69-67-69-68); Branden Grace, Southern Guards (71-64-69-69); Marc Leishman, Ripper (66-72-70-65)
