Where it wins
- Looks86
- Distance82
- Feel82
Watch
Rated highest for looks and distance; its softest dimension is workability.
Your stroke runs straight and you get on with a shaft entering the middle of the head.
Your stroke arcs at all, or you want the classic look of the Anser shape.
Pros
- A centre-shafted head with the balance point sitting deeper than most of its kind
- Two parallel lines that make setting up a straight stroke easy
- Length adjusts across four inches, so it can be built to fit
- The firm face suits anyone who wants to feel the strike
Cons
- Centre-shafted and face-balanced, so an arcing stroke is ruled out
- Plainer to look at than the blades in the range
By dimension
Forgiveness
StrongSteel weights at heel and toe on an aluminium body drop the balance point low, unusual for a centre-shafted head.
Distance
ExcellentThe hard machined face sends the ball off true, with pace matching the rest of the family.
Workability
ModestShafted through the middle and perfectly balanced, this head is made to travel straight and nothing else.
Feel
ExcellentFirm and direct, with the solid face reporting the strike rather than muffling it.
Sound
StrongA tight, low note, rising slightly when you catch it away from the middle.
Looks at address
ExcellentTwo parallel pale lines on a copper-and-black body, plainer than the blades but simple to line up.
