Where it wins
- Feel89
- Sound87
- Looks87
Watch
Rated highest for feel and sound; its softest dimension is workability.
You have a slightly arcing stroke and want a highly forgiving, compact mallet with a buttery feel — an easy step from a blade to a mallet.
You have a straight stroke, want maximum full-mallet MOI, or a classic blade — the face-balanced OMOI 05 or a blade suits you better.
Pros
- Outstanding stability and forgiveness from a heavier compact mallet
- A buttery forged 1025 milled feel
- A slant neck with 30 degrees of toe hang that eases a blade player into a mallet
Cons
- A compact head, so less MOI than a full mallet
- A premium price for a putter
- The toe hang won't suit a straight stroke
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentExcellent — a heavier compact mallet whose CG-shifted head gives outstanding stability and forgiveness away from the sweet spot, one of Mizuno's most forgiving.
Distance
ExcellentA strength — the heavier head and deeply milled 1025 face give a consistent roll and dependable distance control, strong from range.
Workability
FairWorkable for a mallet — a slant neck with 30 degrees of toe hang closes the face nicely for a slightly arcing stroke.
Feel
ExcellentA buttery, soft milled feel — forged 1025 carbon steel feels buttery from the middle, the renowned Mizuno softness at its best.
Sound
ExcellentA soft yet solid note at impact — the deep-milled forged face gives a pleasing, muted sound without harshness.
Looks at address
ExcellentA compact mallet that sits flush at address — a tier-style head that looks tidy and small behind the ball.
