Phantom 7.2
CaddyIndex™ breakdown — what the agentic research found across each of the six performance dimensions, with cited sources.
You putt with a slight-to-medium arc and want a high-MOI wingback mallet with the soft Studio Carbon Steel feel, plumbing-neck toe flow and rail-like alignment.
You putt with a fully straight stroke (look to the 7/7 DB), a strong arc (look to the 7.5), or you want a value price.
Pros
- A high-MOI wingback head with a plumbing neck - forgiveness plus arc-fit
- A new Studio Carbon Steel insert - the softest Phantom feel yet
- Medium toe flow for a slight arc - more versatile than the face-balanced 7
- A flatter sole that sits flush and rail-like alignment
Cons
- Medium toe flow - built for a slight arc, not a fully straight or strong arc
- A larger wingback mallet head
- A premium $499 price
By dimension
Forgiveness
Exceptional - the 7.2 uses the larger wingback Phantom 7 head with a high-MOI multi-material build, the wingback footprint giving strong stability. Among the most forgiving premium mallets - a high-MOI wingback head.
Distance
A standout - the full-face Studio Carbon Steel chain-link insert delivers sharper distance control, the insert giving a consistent strike. Among the better putters for distance control.
Workability
A medium-arc mallet - the I-beam plumbing neck provides medium toe flow for a slightly arcing stroke, the plumbing neck offering alternative toe-flow and alignment properties for slight/medium-arc players. Good arc-fit - a high-MOI wingback with a plumbing neck.
Feel
A class leader - the new full-face Studio Carbon Steel insert with a chain-link mill gives a soft feel, carbon steel having greater dampening than Teryllium, the chain-link reducing contact points to soften feel while keeping feedback. Among the very best putter feels in golf.
Sound
A soft, muted note - the Studio Carbon Steel insert softens sound by limiting the duration of the tone at impact, a dampened, premium acoustic. Among the better putter sounds - a clean, muted note.
Looks at address
Premium, with class-leading alignment - the wingback head with a deeper face and a rounded topline shaped for a softer look, the rail-like alignment and clean single sightline of the 2026 line. Among the very best-looking, best-aligning mallets.
