By dimension
Forgiveness
StrongBlade-level - the iconic Anser 2-style blade with customizable heel-toe weights for stability on slight misses, a blade (not high-MOI) profile. Modest forgiveness - a player's blade with weighting that helps slight misses.
Distance
ExcellentA standout - the Studio Carbon Steel chain-link insert optimises roll and controlled speed, the chain-link milling helping confident speed on short-to-mid putts. Among the better putters for distance control.
Workability
SolidAn arc-friendly blade - the Newport 2's plumber neck creates toe hang suited to an arc stroke, a moderate toe-flow blade neck for arc players. Good arc-fit - a moderate-toe-hang Anser 2 blade.
Feel
Class-leadingA class leader - the new Studio Carbon Steel insert delivers the unmistakably soft sound and feel of carbon steel, the chain-link milling softening the sensation versus previous generations. Among the very best putter feels in golf - a soft carbon-steel insert.
Sound
Class-leadingA soft, muted note - the Studio Carbon Steel insert gives a soft sound, the chain-link milling delivering soft sound with preferred roll. Among the better putter sounds - a clean, muted note.
Looks at address
Class-leadingIconic and clean - the timeless Anser 2 silhouette with square shoulders in a clean setup, the most significant blade redesign in years. Among the very best-looking blades.
