Favorite Mallet?

I love a mallet putter. I use them exclusively. I think the new Bobby Grace F-22 is the best I have ever used. I seems to line itself up and has the softest insert ever. It makes any ball feel like you are using balata again.

The F-22 is a great looking stick.

I'll be receiving an F-18 next week. Smaller version of the F-22. Looking forward to the feel of the insert. I have a M5K-GT with gray HSM tour insert now. Really a smooth feel with that insert.

Hard to go wrong with the Rossie II

A favorite of mine is the Rife 2-bar hybrid. The bars make for a great alignment aid.

I don't have one but they are for sure the sexiest. Gonna buy a Piretti this off season.

My vote is for Scotty's Red X3. Perfect balance, although not face-balanced. Simple and beautiful to look at.

I've been playing with a Rife Barbados and it's going to take something special to get me to switch.

I love my Barbados. If you have a SBST stroke like mine, it might help you, too.

Played a White Hot XG #7 For a few years. It was pretty good. Decent putting. I noticed I had good distance control but wasnt as good from inside 6 feet as I would expect. One day the offset just started looking funny too me. A ton of offsett....

Got lucky and found a used Scotty X2. Played about 4 rounds with it and so far I Love it.
No offset took a little getting used to. The sound and feel is awesome.

Also, I unscrewed the bottom added 3 quarters and 3 dimes...

3 Quarter 5.67gm each = 17.01 gm
3 Dimes 2.268 gm = 6.804 mg

Total 23.814 gm extra. Didn't have to send it in to do any thing funny.
Added about 24 grams of secret weight and I love the weight!

I would look at the Rife line of putters

[Justin_Ellis]

Mine is sort of a mallet, sort of a blade, the Rife Abaco. Lovely looking a performing stick.

At the last Seattle golf show I paid 2 bucks I think to be in the Washington State putting championship, they could call it what they want, it wasn't a big deal. They had a few putters and I grabbed a Rife Barbados. Now it was almost pure luck but I sank 3 50 footers in a row. I'm the guy who didn't show for the finals the next day (work sucks) if anyone here remembers. I bought one almost new online that night for 80 bucks. If I could get somebody to pry my Scotty SS Newport 2 outta my hands I'd sell that over rated/hyped thing and play the Rife. It really rolls it sweet everytime

[Maverick27]

Its not my gamer, but I love my Ping Darby. Just a simple putter but has good feel at times. I usually only use it on slow greens.

[Albatros]

Been gaming the Cleveland Classic BRZ #5 for the last 4-5 rounds. Really liking it even though I've never been a fan of the double-bend shaft. Regripped it with a black Pingman grip and its working great, love the feel and look.

I love my Rife Aussie Mallet, but also like the Rife Barbados. Rife makes awesome mallet putters, go check them out!

[volrus]

Try the SeeMore mFGP2 or the Rife 2 Bar Hybrid.

The "Big Dog" always finds its way into the bag!

Cameron Kombi S. I just love that putter.

[Mookie91]

I am man enough to admit I roll a Odyssey Divine Rossi. 360 gram head, 33" shaft and I make more now than ever before...

Good for you! I'm surprised more guys don't look at the divine line. It supposedly has a very soft insert vs. other Odyssey putters, combined with heavier heads. Win win. Swap out the rather loud grip and you have a very... Gender neutral putter.

It's not a mallet but I think face balanced blades should get a mention. Yes Tracy for example. I had issues with carrying a "big mallet" last year but used a SBST stroke and found the Tracy the best of both worlds. Looks like a blade, swings like a mallet. Funny enough, being a girl I opted out of the female "pink" version for the traditional 33" yellow, black and white version. I eventually wanted a heavier head so I swapped to the Scotty Cameron Newport 2.7 (discontinued but still findable) as it basically clones the Tracy but is more customizable.

Mark,
Sometimes going BIG just ROCKS! I put a few mallets in my bag this past year that really made me wonder why I had been so against them for so long.
Sometimes, bigger is better, even for putters.

Yes.....Despite how pretty a blade is I can't put with them. I have just switched to the Ghost putter and used it today for the first time on the course....Absolutely love it......
[/quote]
I did the exact same thing, i have been playing a Ping blade for years and i switched to the Ghost my first mallet and i love it

[dbloom136]

I have always played a Ping Blade, i needed a change, and i loved the look of the Corza Ghost malllet. I have only played 2 rounds with it, but i just feels like i am rolling the ball with much better pace, and i am leaving my lag putts much closer. I am glad i didnt hold out for the Daytona Ghost, I am a happy mallet convert.

My favorite would be Rife Barbados black!

I have two of them and one is CS which works well on slower greens.


I just ordered Aussie Mallet and they are great mallet putter too.

Rife works for people like me.

[BenJ]

Yes! Valerie is one I always come back to. Kind of a cross between a Rossie and a #9 style. I just wish it had a crank neck like the 330. The 330 is another I think I'd like if I could find an Odyssey insert I could stand.

[Fore_Man]

I'm surprised i haven't seen this one on here yet..... pretty solid putter.

Odyssey White Hot #5

[SetTheBarrHigh]

My White Hot 2 Ball just doesn't go out of style lol

[mac2lad]

While not technically a mallet (or maybe it is), I really like the new Ping Scottsdale Pickemup.

[Sweet]

Spider

[mwgolfpro]

someone above mentioned the Pickemup Scottsdale by Ping

Great stick, but if the CS isn't your thing, you should give the Half Pipe (half mallet) or the Wolverine H (full mallet with hosel) models a try.

These truly are wonderful, if unconventional, putters.

[signats]

Gonna have to go with Joe Dirt on this one........

[Ballhound]

I've always used blade putters but just needed a change. Picked up a 355 gram 34 inch Oddysey White Ice Rossie. Has a nice heavy weight to it. Puts a smooth roll on it. Give it a try.
