You need high-MOI forgiveness, you putt with a straight face-balanced stroke, or you want a value price.
Pros
- 100% milled 303 stainless steel - extremely soft off the face
- One of the purest rolls from a blade putter
- A beautiful, timeless Newport 2-style shape
- An L-neck with 38 degrees of toe hang for arc players
Cons
- A traditional blade - low forgiveness, no high-MOI help
- A hefty premium price
- Best suited to lower handicaps with a centred strike
By dimension
Forgiveness
A traditional blade - modest by design. The B11 is the most traditional-looking blade in the TP Reserve range, pitched as an alternative to the Scotty Cameron Newport 2, a classic blade without high-MOI technology. Among the less forgiving putters - a player's blade that rewards a centred strike.
Distance
A standout - the B11 delivers one of the purest rolls from a blade putter, the face milling getting the ball rolling cleanly, a consistent roll. Among the better putters for distance control.
Workability
Highly workable - the L-neck (plumber's neck) hosel gives 38 degrees of toe hang, a good fit for slight and stronger arc strokes, the blade built to release through impact. Among the more workable putters - a strong-arc blade that an arc putter can shape.
Feel
Best-in-class - the 100% milled 303 stainless steel B11 feels extremely soft off the face, the face milling designed to control feel, a pure, soft contact. Among the very best putter feels - a fully milled premium blade.
Sound
A premium, quiet note - the sound is a quiet 'tap' that only slightly changes outside the groove pattern, the milling tuned to control it, a soft, refined acoustic. Among the better putter sounds - a quiet, premium note.
Looks at address
Among the best - the premium milled 303 stainless steel gives timeless looks, a beautiful-looking blade that took great time to perfect, an alternative to the Newport 2. Among the cleanest, most classic blades.
