Performance index
Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Feel89
- Sound86
- Distance85
Watch
Rated highest for feel and sound; its softest dimension is workability.
You want the classic Anser shape with a soft face and no interest in paying milled prices.
You want sharp feedback from milled steel, or you need mallet-level stability.
Pros
- Softer at impact than anything in Ping's milled range, at a fraction of the price
- More stable than the milled Anser of the same shape, because the face weighs less
- A sightline that reads clearly over the ball
- A SuperStroke grip included rather than charged for
Cons
- One of the colourways is a loud blue that plenty of buyers will want to avoid, so choose carefully
- An insert tells you less about where you struck it than milled steel does
By dimension
Forgiveness
StrongA lighter insert frees mass for the heel and toe, so it steadies more than the milled version.
Distance
ExcellentPace comes off the face evenly, with none of the fliers a worn insert can produce.
Workability
StrongA plumber's neck with full offset and real hang, cut for a stroke that arcs gently.
Feel
ExcellentAbout as soft as a putter face gets, the polymer taking impact almost entirely out of your hands.
Sound
ExcellentQuiet and dull at contact, closer to a thud than any kind of click.
Looks at address
ExcellentBlack nickel with a grey top line reads cleanly, though the blue option will not suit everyone.
