Where it wins
- Looks90
- Feel89
- Sound88
Watch
Rated highest for looks and feel; its softest dimension is workability.
You putt straight and want a wide, stable Scotty without paying current prices.
Your stroke arcs, or you want the softer face of the newer generations.
Pros
- Steel sole weights matched to length, so the head can be built to fit
- Wide and stable, with mishits holding their line
- A quiet finish that does not throw glare back at you
- Cheaper now than the current Phantoms while sharing much of the design
Cons
- Firmer at impact than the dual-milled and insert faces that replaced it
- Face-balanced only, so an arcing stroke wants the 11.5
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentA wide wingback with steel weights out at the corners, and it stays put on a miss.
Distance
ExcellentPace off the solid steel face is consistent, if a shade firmer than the later heads.
Workability
ModestThe mid-bend shaft is there to stop the face turning, and it does exactly that.
Feel
ExcellentOne piece of milled stainless with nothing over it, firmer than the generations that followed.
Sound
ExcellentA clean, crisp note off solid steel, damped by the alloy sole beneath it.
Looks at address
Class-leadingA tidy top edge with one pale line, and a finish that dulls the sun.
