Where it wins
- Feel92
- Looks90
- Sound88
Watch
Rated highest for feel and looks; its softest dimension is forgiveness.
You want a premium, milled classic blade with exceptional soft feel and a true roll - and you putt with a repeating, slight-arc stroke.
You want maximum forgiveness from a high-MOI mallet, or the lowest price.
Pros
- Exceptionally soft, premium milled feel - a Roll Control face on a single-block milled 303 stainless head
- Roll Control grooves get the ball into a true roll faster, reducing skid for a predictable pace
- A timeless, premium Anser blade look with a Diamond Blast or hand-polished finish
- Strong arc-fit range - multiple necks and toe hangs across the line to match your stroke
Cons
- A blade - less forgiving than a high-MOI mallet
- Premium pricing
- Best for players who deliver a repeating stroke - a classic blade, not a point-and-shoot mallet
By dimension
Forgiveness
SolidForgiving for a blade - the wide-body Anser shape keeps the majority of the weight right behind the face, adding enhanced forgiveness and feedback for the average-to-above-average player, with solid off-centre feedback. Good blade-class forgiveness, if behind the mallets.
Distance
ExcellentExcellent distance control - the combination of a bigger body but compact weight behind the face makes it very good for controlling distance, the Roll Control grooves getting the ball into a true roll for a predictable pace. Among the better putters for distance control.
Workability
StrongStrong arc-fit range - the line offers a range of necks and toe hangs across its models (plumber's and spud necks, half and quarter toe hang) to fit different arcs, the classic blade flowing on a slight arc. Good arc-fit for the target stroke and the wider range.
Feel
Class-leadingExceptionally soft - the Roll Control face milling maintains an exceptionally soft feel in every putt, a premium, buttery feel from the single-block milled 303 stainless head. Among the best-feeling putters made - classic Bettinardi.
Sound
ExcellentSoft with clear feedback - the Roll Control milling delivers a soft feel with audible feedback in every putt, a premium, muted note. A clean, soft, high-end putter sound.
Looks at address
Class-leadingA classic, premium blade - a sleek, expertly milled Anser shape with a Diamond Blast or hand-polished finish, a timeless, premium look at address. Among the best-looking blade putters - a milled classic.
