Performance index
Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Feel89
- Forgiveness87
- Looks87
Watch
Rated highest for feel and forgiveness; its softest dimension is workability.
You putt straight back and through and want maximum stability without paying milled prices.
Your stroke arcs, or you want a compact shape over the ball.
Pros
- Among the most stable heads at this money, and mishits keep both line and pace
- A soft face across its full width, not only in the middle
- High-contrast finish and a clear line make aiming almost automatic
- A counterbalanced build offered for anyone whose wrists break down
Cons
- A bulky head that blade players will not want to look down on
- Face-balanced only, so an arcing stroke gets nothing from it
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentWeight driven to the rim and low behind the face, so the head holds its line on a poor strike.
Distance
ExcellentThe full-face insert keeps ball speed even, and heel or toe strikes finish near the right length.
Workability
ModestA double bend leaves the face balanced, wanting to run straight rather than open and close.
Feel
ExcellentPolymer across the whole face, soft under the hands wherever on it you make contact.
Sound
ExcellentA low, damped note with no metallic edge, quiet enough not to intrude.
Looks at address
ExcellentSilver against black with a white line and a worked top edge, all of it pointing forward.
