Watch
Rated highest for looks and feel; its softest dimension is workability.
You putt with an arc and want a large, high-MOI mallet with a slant neck for toe flow, excellent forgiveness and combination alignment.
You putt with a straight stroke (look to the X 7), you want a compact shape (look to the X 5.5), or you want the softest current feel.
Pros
- A large, high-MOI modern mallet - very good forgiveness
- A slant 'jet' neck for toe flow - suits an arcing stroke
- Combination alignment - black-and-white sight lines back to the ball
- Variable sole weights matched to length for consistent swing weight
Cons
- A firm aluminium-face feel - firmer than the milled-stainless models
- A larger mallet head
- A 2021 milled face - pre the softer dual-milled and Studio Carbon Steel tech
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentExceptional - the X 7.5 shares the large, high-MOI X 7 body with very good forgiveness, the perimeter-weighted modern mallet giving face resistance to twisting. Among the more forgiving premium mallets - a large high-MOI head.
Distance
ExcellentA standout - the milled aluminium face and high-MOI head give a consistent roll and pace, the stable head delivering distance control. Among the better putters for distance control.
Workability
FairA toe-flow mallet - the X 7.5 adds a slant 'jet' neck for toe flow versus the face-balanced X 7, suiting an arcing stroke. Good arc-fit - the toe-flow version of the large mallet.
Feel
ExcellentFirm and solid - the solid 6061 aluminium face gives a firm, solid feel, a stable, solid strike. A solid feel, firmer than the milled-stainless Phantom X models.
Sound
ExcellentA muted, solid note - the aluminium face gives a muted, solid impact, a clean acoustic. A clean, muted note.
Looks at address
Class-leadingClean and modern - the large, modern mallet shape with a black aluminium face, combination alignment of black-and-white sight lines extending from the back to the ball. Among the cleaner large mallets.
