Watch

- A premium milled price
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentExceptional - the multi-material construction moves weight to the perimeter for increased MOI, stability and forgiveness, a compact, performance-oriented mallet build. Among the more forgiving compact mallets - a high-MOI multi-material head.
Distance
ExcellentA standout - the milled 303 stainless face gives a consistent roll and pace, the solid milled face delivering repeatable distance. Among the better putters for distance control.
Workability
FairAn arc-friendly mallet - a low-bend shaft to enhance toe flow for the player who likes more of an arced stroke, a toe-flow setup versus the face-balanced 11. Good arc-fit - a toe-flow version of the high-MOI mallet.
Feel
ExcellentSoft and solid - a noticeable improvement in feel through the solid milled 303 stainless face, the milled face giving a soft, solid premium strike. Among the better putter feels - a premium milled stainless face (pre-dual-milled).
Sound
ExcellentA crisp, solid note - a noticeable improvement in sound through the solid stainless face, a clean, solid acoustic. A clean, solid milled note.
Looks at address
Class-leadingSleek and clean - the sleek profile with swept-back trimmed wings and a misted, glare-resistant head, the single light-gray sight line against the black back for clear alignment. Among the cleaner-looking mallets.
