Description The newest edition to the OZ family of putters has the highest Moment of Inertia, or resistance to twisting, in the OZ putter line. This added stability is provided by two 65-gram tungsten weights tha...
Summary: I've used this mallet for one year, after using several Ping Anser style blades (including the real deal) for the last 15. Some reviewers have commented that the putter is big and light. I'd agree that it is big (but not huge), but I think it is only light compared to some mallets; it is pretty heavy compared to a blade putter.
I think the picture at the top of this page shows the best attribute of this putter. It has a bright white sight lines against a dull black body. It is pretty easy to align for short puts. I hit it off my front foot, and on shorter putts I can actually see the hole and confirm the alignment just using peripheral vision. Doing that I sink a lot more short putts with this thing. Visually it the bright white line is a bigger helper for me.
Also, I have learned to like the center-shaft. Since switching from years of using a rear-shafted blade, I've found that I occasionally hit the ball slightly toward the tow side of this center-shafted club. It feels a little odd when this happens, esp. when I miss by more the width of a penny or so. If you hit it dead center, right beneath the shaft it feels really sweet.
I'd recommend this thing, esp. for less than $100. It has definitely improved my short putting, which adds up fast. Also, as others have commented, the shaft is sticky. This goes away after use, once it gets a little dirty it is pretty normal and doesn't pick up grass and sand anymore.

Summary: I'm very new to golf. I'm 15 years old i played alot when i was a kid but got bored of the game. I picked up the game again in the spring and played all summer. My brother had this putter and he let me use it. At first i loved it, but as i got better i began to absolutly hate it. It is way to big and wicked light. It does good for a beginer but no good for experiece

Summary: When i got the putter i really liked it but know i feel it is to light. The head is so big that it is hard to make those 2-5 footers. And it is to light, ecpesially when you get on to slow greens. i think for the money there are better putters out the like the YES callie putter.
