Most Wanted Putter Testing 2018


DPattGolf

Recommended Posts

I know its a ways out still but what is everyone looking forward to seeing in the Most Wanted Putter Testing this year? Any early predictions? 

 

I personally LOVE my custom matte black Evnroll ER2 so I'm not looking to switch but would love to see it continue to perform well in Most Wanted Testing. With that said I could see the Bloodline R1-J Blade doing quite well and possibly giving Envroll a serious run for its money, especially if testers stand behind to check the line before putts.

Not that far off; I have done all the blades and 2 mallet sessions. I think I am farthest ahead but it is underway.

 

Er-2 not in the test.

 

I tried standing behind the bloodline and got frustrated because I set the putter slightly open. I would change the alignment and still not do any better. Performs about the same for me as most of the putters.

 

Haven't found anything leaps and bounds ahead. Some of the putters I struggled with distance control. Generally I make all the 5 footers, Miss 1 10 footer and make 1 20 footer. There were some that were worse and On any given day those numbers might vary a little.

I figured the ER2 wasn't in it this year but that other Evnroll models would perform well. 

 

Very interesting. Can't wait to see how everything shakes out!

I'm not in the market for a new putter. However I always enjoy all of the Most Wanted testing.

I've liked the Evnrol ER2 since its debut. To me it fits my eye and I think I could putt well with one.

If I were to buy one I'd probably buy one off ebay. I just did a quick check and they are there in very good used condition for about $250. Next year they'll probably be much less still. And just as good as new!

I was wasting time at Dick's the other day and grabbed an Odyssey White Hot RX #1 and putted with it. The hosel isn't the same as my Edel ER-2, but the view from above, with the single small line on the top edge, matches the marking on my Edel... I sank a ton of putts with that Odyssey. I grabbed some other models and was nowhere near as accurate. Proved to me there's something to how Edel fitted me, as far as lines and shapes.

How do you determine “tech” putters? Ping, Cleveland, MLA and Evnroll are probably the ones MGS would put into that category since they use tech for managing off center hits or significantly different than traditional alignment aids.

I'm going to be very interested to see how the Bloodline putters perform. I always like looking at the underdogs in these tests and seeing if they can compete with the bigger spending boys.

I am also anxiously awaiting the 2018 most wanted putter results. Any hints as to when it will be posted?

Still in progress. Don't know how far other testers have gotten. I think I have 2 or 3 more mallet sessions which would be about 2-3 more weeks for me to complete. I know they are working on driver swing speed breakdowns and driver measurements(loft, moi, cog, etc.). I would guess 4-5 weeks but that could vary based on how they want to release the results.

I am assuming this was for me since I think I am the only most wanted tester on the forum. The line was ok. There are some thinks I don't like about the look. Same quality as prior years and a good value for the $. The new face didn't do a lot for me, I don't think that the Ping TR face does much either. If you are looking at the distance control aspect, the evnroll is far and away a better option.

Thanks for the feedback, that is exactly what I was looking for. I really want to demo these putters but can't find them anywhere local.

Thanks.  Just for anyone else reading this thread, I saw on Twitter MGS said they expect blade results in a couple of weeks with mallets to follow shortly after
