Heel shafted mini mallet putters - recommendations?

Ever since i started golf, i've been very biased towards traditional blade putters and have always steered clear from mallets and 2-ball putters coz i just don't like the look and feel of them. About 2 months ago, i tried the Odyssey Black i #9 just for fun - it felt great, and my putting was super hot. I thought it was just a one off, and didn't give it much thought. I've since tried the Odyssey Black Tour #9 and White Ice #9 many times, and i'm kinda loving it. Maybe the head shape just works for me.

So anyways, before i go ahead and buy an Odyssey (which i've also been quite biased against all this while), would like to find out which models from the other manufacturers (Scotty, Bettinardi, Byron Morgan, Yes!, etc.) are similar to the #9. I've attached a pic below for reference. Thanks in advance for any leads

Found some..

Scotty Del Mar
Bettinardi Studio Stock #4

Rife Abaco

Zen Oracle RDE Mallet. Go to BFG and try it out. You don't know what you are missing.

Titu

Scotty Cameron Fastback 1.5

Cleveland Classic 2 mallet putter.

bro, forget about your old flame.. she's in another's hands.. be faithful to your new love ok?

Yes I will bro. Will stick to current love for long long time.

Back to topic, the Cleveland putter is really easy to align.

somehow i too find this design suit my putting better.. the odessy i tried, also very nice.. sigh.. must keep some mistresses now..

Thanks for the replies..

Rife Abaco and Cleveland Classic 2 mallet similar. Will check them out.

From my research, many people refer to this design as "half moon" blades.

The Zen and Fastback 1.5 are more like traditional full sized mallets..

Nike method, wilson

A reasonably priced option would be the Cleveland BRZ Classics #2, which I am using at the moment. Very soft feel due to the bronze-infused insert, and weighs a nice hefty 350gm

Nike Method 003, same as the Odyssey one you are looking for. Might even be on 50% discount at Nike Golf in Ubi.

If I rem correctly, big Phil also favours this type of heel shafted putters.

Hi Solarpop,
I bought an Odyssey Black i #9 (34") very recently from Pan West . If you are interested, let me know. Any reasonable offer will be considered. Thanks

There was one by Taylormade Kia Ma series on sale over the last weekend TM Adidas sale at the expo, 199 only

yes I Agree it is very Chio, I'm with you, i also like the shape. Just not sure bout the results.

I would say that out of those I have tried, the TM Kia Ma Maranello and the Nike Method 003 are among the best balanced. I'm also pretty impressed with the ZIM, but as I'm having some issues with the balance of the BRZ on course, I might need DGman to lend me a trial unit to game for a couple of rounds to see if I can get used to it

anyone tried the new Yes Mollie MOI? Have not seen it locally. More interested in the Morgan

Wah the Yes! Mollie is US$360.. super expensive almost same price as a Bettinardi Studio Stock. Never knew Yes! putters cost so much

I guess the Yes! is now a No?

Tried YES! Sophie before... keep hearing the skidding of the ball on the artificial grass.... or is tat too much topspin??

Guess is the grooves

Yes, the Yes! is definitely a No.

Would much rather pay about US$60 for a used Odyssey White Ice #9.

Speaking of which, I have a nice clean Odyssey White Hot to sell when I'm back in SG

Go for the odyssey tour black #9 if you are looking for a full milled one.
