Where it wins
- Forgiveness88
- Distance87
- Feel87
Watch
Rated highest for forgiveness and distance; its softest dimension is workability.
You set up with your hands back, arc the putter slightly, and want maximum stability.
You are used to a full-offset head, or you want a compact shape over the ball.
Pros
- Onset geometry, a rare fit that suits anyone who sets their hands back at address
- As stable as anything Ping mills, and mishits keep their pace
- Fifteen degrees of hang, so a gentle arc is served without losing stability
- A limited run finished above the standard Ally Blue
Cons
- Onset takes real adjustment if you have only ever played offset putters
- The blocky Ally Blue outline is not to everyone's taste
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentAn aluminium top over a steel sole plate spreads mass wide, and off-centre hits barely suffer.
Distance
ExcellentFour hours of milling leaves a face that returns even ball speed wherever you catch it.
Workability
FairThe shaft joins the head behind the face rather than in front, leaving fifteen degrees of hang.
Feel
ExcellentAluminium under a deeply cut face, and it still passes on a clear read of the strike.
Sound
ExcellentContained and low, without the ringing a large aluminium body might lead you to expect.
Looks at address
ExcellentThe same broad square body, though the shaft entry sits further back than most eyes expect.
