Where it wins
- Feel90
- Sound88
- Looks88
Watch
Rated highest for feel and sound; its softest dimension is workability.
You have a straight stroke and want a highly forgiving, face-balanced winged mallet with one of the softest milled faces in golf.
You have an arc stroke, want a compact blade, or a firmer feel — an arc blade or the M.CRAFT V suits you better.
Pros
- A face-balanced, high-MOI winged mallet with a heavier 371-gram head for stability
- One of the softest, best putter faces in golf
- Two sightlines for easy alignment and a weight kit
Cons
- Face-balanced only, with nothing for an arc stroke
- A deep mallet footprint that not everyone likes
- A premium price for a putter
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentVery forgiving — a face-balanced, winged stability mallet with weight pushed to the edges and a heavier 371-gram head for high MOI.
Distance
StrongA strength — a deeply milled 1025 carbon-steel face gives a pure roll and dependable, consistent distance control.
Workability
ModestMinimal — a face-balanced mallet with almost no toe hang, built for a straight path, not made to shape a putt.
Feel
Class-leadingOne of the softest, best putter faces — deep-milled forged 1025 carbon steel gives an incredibly soft feel at impact.
Sound
ExcellentA soft, muted note at impact — deep face milling quietens the sound for a pleasing, gentle tone.
Looks at address
ExcellentA winged mallet with two sightlines that frame the ball's width and a semi-circular cavity focusing the impact zone.
