Where it wins
- Feel91
- Looks91
- Sound89
Watch
Rated highest for feel and looks; its softest dimension is workability.
You putt with a straight stroke and want a compact, ring-weighted mid-mallet with the new soft Studio Carbon Steel feel, enhanced alignment and a responsive click.
You putt with an arc (look to the Fastback 1.5), you want maximum forgiveness, or you want a value price.
Pros
- A ring-weighted, perimeter-weighted mid-mallet - more stable than the blades
- A black anodized aluminium heel-toe inlay for alignment and MOI
- A new Studio Carbon Steel insert - soft but solid and premium
- A Golf Digest 2026 Hot List model
Cons
- Near-face-balanced - built for a straight stroke, not an arc
- Compact mid-mallet forgiveness - below a full high-MOI mallet
- A premium £499 price
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentStrong for a mid-mallet - a ring-weighted, perimeter-weighted multi-material design with a black anodized aluminium heel-toe inlay for enhanced MOI, more stable and consistent than the blades. Among the more forgiving compact mid-mallets in the line.
Distance
ExcellentA standout - the Studio Carbon Steel chain-link insert gives a steady roll with controlled speed, the chain-link milling helping confident speed on short-to-mid putts. Among the better putters for distance control.
Workability
ModestA near-face-balanced mid-mallet - the standard Fastback is a near-face-balanced, modern rounded mid-mallet with a re-engineered sole draft to sit square at address (the 1.5 jet neck adds toe flow). Very limited arc-fit - built for a straight stroke.
Feel
Class-leadingSoft and solid - the Fastback sounds and feels soft but solid and premium, the Studio Carbon Steel insert giving responsive feedback, the chain-link milling delivering a softer sensation than previous generations. Among the very best putter feels - a premium carbon-steel insert.
Sound
ExcellentA responsive click - the carbon-steel face gives a responsive click that is soft but not muted, the chain-link milling delivering a refined acoustic. A clean, crisp note - livelier than the muted blades.
Looks at address
Class-leadingModern and clean - the modern rounded mid-mallet with a black anodized aluminium heel-toe inlay enhances alignment, a high-alignment, confidence-inspiring design. Among the cleaner, most alignment-friendly mid-mallets.
