Middler Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Is there a case for too much MOI? I am thinking about an Evnroll ER5B or Outback. Kinda like the looks of both, and I rolled both briefly at a PGA Superstore last Nov - seemed to putt about the same with both. Is high MOI always a good thing in a putter? I think I have a slight arc stroke, I'm definitely not SBST.

Additonally it may be harder to feel off center hits. zrumble and Middler 2 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: TS3 15* w/Project X Hzardous Smoke Hybrids: 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54/12D, 60/8M w/:Accra iWedge 90 Graphite Putter: Sacks Parente MC 3 Stripe Backup Putters: Milled Collection RSX 2, mFGP2, Futura 5W, TM-180 Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NRJyzr Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I don't know if this is inherent to higher MOI putters, or if it's something else, but when I've tried them, my distance control turns pretty junky. Could just be me. <shrug> Quote Driver: TM Original One 11.5* set to 11*, Aldila NV75 X, 43.5" -or- SpeedZone, HZRDUS Black 75 6.5, 43.5" 3w: Cobra King LTD, RIP Beta 90, 42" -or- Stage 2 Tour, NV105 X, 42.5" 2h or 3h: TaylorMade Stage 2 Tour, Aldila NV105 S -or- RIP Alpha 105 S Irons: 3-PW Mizuno MP37, Recoil Proto 125 F4 (reshaft in progress, slowly); 1i & 3-PW Golden Ram TW276, NV105 S; 2-PW Golden Ram TW282, RIP Tour 115 R GW: Dynacraft Dual Milled CNC 52*, Steelfiber 125 S; Scratch 8620 DS 53*, Steelfiber 125 S SW: Ram TG-898 56*, DGX ss2x; Ram Tom Watson 55*, DGX ss2x; Wilson Staff PMP 58*, DGS; PM Grind 19 58*, stock shaft Putter: Snake Eyes Viper Tour Sv1, 34"; Ping Scottsdale TR Craz-E, 35"; Cleveland Huntington Beach 1, 35" Ball: Wilson Staff Duo Professional, Bridgestone Tour B-RXS, Callaway Chrome Soft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueberry_Squishie Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Head weight would likely be higher in high MOI putters. Could bring issues regarding control in your stroke having to move extra weight. Could be part of NRJyzr's distance control issues.
