Paint it Black: PXG releases all-black Allan ZT putter
Price: $399
Specs: Hollow-bodied with polymer-filled chamber and steel/graphite shaftWho it's for: Players who love a blade-style putter but want more forgiveness, more stability and less glareWhat you should know: PXG's popular Allan ZT putter is now available in an all-black version that's built to stay square through impact and help players roll the ball more consistently—no matter their stroke typeThe Deep Dive: If you ever have a chance to meet Bob Parsons, the founder of PXG, there's a good chance he'll be dressed in all black. It's his style, and in keeping with that style, his golf equipment company has created limited-edition all-black versions of many of its irons, wedges and putters. You can now add the Allan ZT putter, which was originally released last August, to the list.

Named after Parsons' brother, the Allan ZT Double Black continues to lean into performance-focused putter design. The heart of this mallet-style putter remains its zero-torque balance, which is achieved by having the shaft axis directly above the center of gravity. That minimizes face rotation and helps golfers deliver the face square to the ball on the downswing more consistently—regardless of whether they have a straight, slight arc, or strongly-arced stroke.
Like its silver predecessor, the Allan ZT Double Black includes PXG's Pyramid Face Pattern to enhance roll consistency, along with a pair of weights in the heel and toe area of the sole that give fitters a chance to adjust the swing weight based on the finished club's length or a player's preference. And yes, the popular "Pick Up Pocket" found in the sole of the original Allan ZT putter, is also found in the Double Black version, allowing golfers to retrieve a ball easily off the green without bending over.
PXG injects S Cor polymer inside the head of the PXG Allan ZT Double Black to enhance sound and feel.
The face is extremely thin (0.55 inches), and behind it, inside a hollow chamber in the head, PXG designers have injected the company's proprietary S COR polymer. It is the same polymer found in many of the brand's hollow-body irons, and the soft material reduces vibration and enhances feel.It all comes stock with PXG's M16 Stability Shaft, which adds torsional stiffness and helps with distance control, especially on longer putts.While PXG's larger Bat Attack ZT mallet continues to draw interest from players who like a high-MOI look, the Double Black Allan ZT fills a very different lane — a traditional mallet that's packed with modern engineering and wrapped in a blackout finish. If you want sleek, techy and square through the stroke, this one might be worth a look.

Is it too late for Jerry Jones to make nice with Micah Parsons?
Cowboys owner and G.M. Jerry Jones was uncharacteristically concise when he was asked on Saturday night about the negotiations with linebacker Micah Parsons. One potential explanation is this: The Cowboys are planning to make Micah an offer he won't refuse. The other potential explanation, as articulated by Chris Simms during Monday's PFT Live, is this: Jerry doesn't want to piss off Micah any more than Jerry already has. Ten days ago, Parsons made a public request to be traded. The next day, Jerry brushed it off as a negotiating tactic. Since then, Micah hasn't doubled down or otherwise confirmed his position. He also hasn't rescinded it. And so, at a time when there are very real rumblings that the Cowboys will imminently be making the kind of offer they're confident Parsons will take (which will coincide with the major, final P.R. push for The Jerry Show on Netflix), it's entirely possible that it's too late for that. The ship, we're told, quite possibly has sailed. Parsons quite possibly will reject any offer he receives from the Cowboys on a long-term deal, because he no longer wants one. It all comes down to whether his trade request was a Myles Garrett-style bluff, or whether Micah meant every word of it. That's where we are, only 24 days away from the first game of the season. Cowboys-Eagles, in Philadelphia. And the best way for the Cowboys to find out whether Parsons meant what he said would be to make the offer and see whether Parsons takes it — or whether he says, 'What part of 'I want out of here' didn't you understand?'

Micah Parsons Trade? Jets Make Sense As Landing Spot For Superstar
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Earlier this offseason, Dallas Cowboys edge rusher Micah Parsons requested a trade from the team following a stalemate in his contract extension negotiations, among other things. Bleacher Report's Kristopher Knox recently listed Parsons as a potential trade candidate for the Cowboys following his official request for a trade. OXNARD, CALIFORNIA - AUGUST 5: Micah Parsons #11 of the Dallas Cowboys looks on during the joint practice against the Los Angeles Rams at Staybridge Suites Oxnard on August 5, 2025 in Oxnard, California. OXNARD, CALIFORNIA - AUGUST 5: Micah Parsons #11 of the Dallas Cowboys looks on during the joint practice against the Los Angeles Rams at Staybridge Suites Oxnard on August 5, 2025 in Oxnard, California."Dallas has a recent history of waiting until the last minute to reach contract agreements. This led to massive deals for wideout CeeDee Lamb and quarterback Dak Prescott -- who now makes $5 million more per year than any other player," Knox wrote. "Parsons is now set to top the $41 million annually that T.J. Watt will make on his new deal. "If Parsons is prepared to leave, the Cowboys should see what they can get in return. They're unlikely to be serious Super Bowl contenders within the next few seasons, and paying more than $130 million per year for three players would be hard to justify if they aren't. Trading Parsons would likely bring back a pair of first-round picks and more. The Cowboys owe it to themselves to see just how high his price tag might go." If Parsons is actually on the trade block, the New York Jets need to take a shot at him. First of all, the Jets need help at edge rusher. While their defense is fine as a whole, the edge rushing group leaves something to be desired. Adding Parsons would be adding a superstar with the potential to register 20 sacks in a season. The Jets also have the draft capital and player capital to get a deal done. New York could send Jermaine Johnson, Breece Hall, and draft picks to the Cowboys and almost certainly top any offer from another team. While it could be rough to have to pay Parsons, that's the price of doing business and putting together a Super Bowl contender. At the end of the day, this is the kind of move to make if a team wants to win the Super Bowl. More NFL: Blockbuster Bills-Giants Trade Idea Sends $31 Million Star To Buffalo
