Where it wins
- Looks92
- Feel90
- Sound89
Watch
Rated highest for looks and feel; its softest dimension is workability.
You want mallet steadiness but refuse to give up the feel of the head.
Your stroke arcs a long way, or you want the largest, most stable head you can find.
Pros
- Off-centre strikes keep their pace nearly as well as on the much larger heads
- A raised centre strip cut to the width of a ball, with fine lines through it
- The ball starts rolling almost at once, even on fast greens
- A sole cut in three planes, so it sits square without being fiddled with
Cons
- Only a modest amount of release even on the slanted build, so a big arc gets little
- Two very different aiming treatments were sold, so the wrong one will grate
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentDense metal curled round the rear keeps pace on an end-of-face contact close to what the larger models manage.
Distance
ExcellentEven a firm long putt on quick greens gets rolling almost immediately rather than skidding.
Workability
ModestThe least toe release of the GT heads on its slanted neck, and none at all on the straight one.
Feel
Class-leadingGenuinely soft at impact without turning mushy, and it still separates a good strike from a poor one.
Sound
ExcellentA hushed note from the sweet spot that grows harder the further out you catch it.
Looks at address
Class-leadingA half-moon back with a raised strip exactly a ball wide, and fine lines running through it.
