Popular Post Parshooter36 Posted March 27 Popular Post Share Posted March 27 I just got back from my 1st practice session with the F-3 and have a couple of quick observations. 1st off, I am already a believer in the Edel alignment fitting philosophy. In the past I have dabbled with using the line on the ball for putting when I was struggling with alignment. I never stuck with it, because I would line up the line, but once I stood over the ball with my putter in place it always looked to my eye like I was aiming way left of my target. With the fitted Edel Array F-3, I lined up the ball and when I addressed the ball with the putter it looked like I was pointed exactly at my target. 2nd, this is beautifully crafted putter. Every thing about this putter screams quality to me. I'll leave a few teaser pics here while I work on my unboxing post. goaliewales14, GolfSpy BOS, Fongle and 15 others 8 4 1 5 Quote Driver: QI10 Max Fairway: Sim2 Max 3HL Fairway: G425 Max 9 Wood Hybrid: 2020 CLK 5 Hybrid Hybrid: 0317 6 Hybrid Irons: ZX4 7-PW Wedges: CBX Zipcore 46° 50° 54° & 58° Putter: Array F-3 Ball: Q-Star Tour Yellow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bucky CC Posted March 27 Popular Post Share Posted March 27 Glad to see some of the fellow testers are getting their putters. Mine was ordered a bit later so hopefully it will be on the way soon. One issue that has me a bit worried is I was not able to get fit for my putter. If you use the Find a Fitter feature on the Edel website it lists 4 locations in Wisconsin (all Golftec) that carry the Array system. Unfortunately all four of these locations are franchised and not corporate Golftec, and their kits still have not arrived. I called Club Champion as well but my location (Milwaukee) is not receiving the Array system. I hope Edel has a clear winner with the new line of putters, but I can see one of the big downsides is they are not available outside of a few select fitters. Shout out to the MGS mods for working behind the scenes to get things figured out. The plan for now is to receive an Array based on my gamer specs and then go through the fitting process once my local Golftec has them in stock. The great thing about having a modular putter is the ability to make a lot of changes even after the club is built.

I am coming from a face balanced putter that I would try and use a straight back straight through stroke. My Fitting showed I was actually coming slightly outside to in with my putter. The slant neck on the Edel gives it a decent amount of toe hang which allows me to use a more natural arc stroke without trying to guide the putter into position.

Popular Post Prodigal Duffer Posted March 28 Popular Post Share Posted March 28 (edited) First Impressions 19/20 I have been excitedly awaiting the arrival of my Array blade putter for what feels like a month. I got fit at the end of February, and Bryan confirmed our orders on March 4. Edel’s website says that orders ship within two weeks. I received my putter on March 26; the packing slip says that the order was placed on March 7 and checking the tracking number, the putter shipped on March 22, almost exactly two weeks. I deducted one point because I never received any communication about the shipment. The box bears the Edel logo prominently on one side, and the inside of the box has a very nice, branded liner. The putter was securely fastened with cellophane to a piece of folded cardboard, ensuring that the putter head would remain immobile. Perhaps most surprising on opening the box was the included head cover, which struck me as abnormally large. It is well-padded, and has a simple elegance to it, with a black field, the Edel name in script on the end, with Array in smaller font on one side. Assuming I keep this putter, I would strongly consider keeping the head cover instead of swapping out for something else, like the blade cover from MGS’s store. Readers, let me know which one you would rock. The head has a black matte finish that I really like. I chose the single alignment line, as I think it provides a stark contrast to the matte finish and makes it easy for me to gauge my direction. The back of the head has a clean look with the Edel name on the back of the putting surface, and the Array name and model (B-1) on each side. I don’t like the B on the B-1, as it looks like part of it chipped, but it’s just the font style. I chose a single bend hosel, which gives the putter the least amount of toe hang. I found in my fitting that I tend to slightly close the face through impact, so my hope is that the toe hang will help me keep the face more square. Edel prides itself in its customization options, both in hosel and weight. The blade’s standard weight is 365 grams; in my fitting, we determined that a good weight for me is 360 grams. I ordered my putter with 10 gram weights, giving the putter a total weight of 355 grams. I will pay special attention to my putting speed during testing. If the 355 grams is too light, it would be pretty easy to swap the weights out (assuming I can order them from Edel separately from the putter). The putter has a milled face, which I have never used. My gamer has an insert, so I expect the ball to come off the face a bit hotter. Finally, I chose the Edel flat standard grip. I really like the look of the grip, which is understated (much like the head cover). The flat side is textured and reminds me of the milled face, which I think is really cool. The end cap is slightly rounded. I use Shot Scope tags, and my putter tag does not fit in my gamer putter. I hope that the tag fits the Array, but I also would guess that using the manual putting tracker on my X5 is more accurate than the tag. Problem is that I frequently forget to mark my putts on my watch. With Easter coming up (in my faith tradition, we start celebrating tomorrow, Thursday), I will not be able to really start testing until early next week. I plan to do some speed tests at the practice facility while my son is at First Tee. I will also begin with my own laser alignment tests on my Birdie Ball putting mat. Look for some updates next week!
