We tested: 34" and 35" in steel shafts

Company line: "The precision-milled head, made from 303-stainless steel, has a glare-resistant 'charcoal mist' finish. It features a single bend shaft with 1/4-shaft of offset for ideal toe-flow through the stroke. The stepless steel shaft enhances feel."

Voted Best for Feel

Our Test Panel Says:
PROS: Putts don't jump off the face, you're always in control of the ball; extremely responsive, it offers light feedback on off-center putts; testers love its smooth, true roll; grip it lightly and allow overall weighting to generate an easy, repeatable pendulum stroke; this simple, classy, winsome mallet is an aesthetic favorite; long white alignment stripe proves useful.

CONS: A player's mallet; inconsistent strikers may want to look elsewhere for more 'game-improvement' help on toe misses; it won't be willing to save you on any blatant mis-hits.
