Where it wins
- Looks88
- Forgiveness83
- Distance82
Watch
Rated highest for looks and forgiveness; its softest dimension is workability.
You putt straight, want stability, and prefer a hard face that talks back.
Your stroke arcs, or you want the softer polymer face Ping puts on its other Fetch.
Pros
- Steadier than it looks, because the ball-retrieval hole strips mass out of the centre
- The finish makes the sightlines dominate and the ball-retrieval hole disappear
- Length adjusts from 32 to 36 inches, so it can be fitted properly
- A firm machined face for anyone who finds insert putters lifeless
Cons
- Face-balanced only, giving an arcing stroke nothing to work with
- Firmer than Ping's insert-faced Fetch, which will suit fewer players
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentThe hole through the middle shifts mass outward, so it forgives far better than its size suggests.
Distance
ExcellentA machined face rolls the ball cleanly, with pace as dependable as the blades in the family.
Workability
ModestFace-balanced and meant to travel straight, so an arcing stroke gets no assistance at all.
Feel
ExcellentFirm by intent, the hard face passing impact to the hands instead of absorbing it.
Sound
StrongA low, crisp report that sharpens on a miss, quiet but informative.
Looks at address
ExcellentCopper against black pulls the eye to the sightlines and makes the hole in the sole recede.
