Nike Review: Oz T100 Mallet Putter

Manufacturer: Nike Golf

Model: Oz T100 Mallet
Category: Putters

Additional Details:

Purchase: I was demoing new putters at Golf Galaxy. I ended up purchasing a Rossa, but this one had some merit. I think they were asking $139.99 for these.

Pros: Improved alignment over the original Oz. There is an extension that protrudes from the back of the "loop" that meets with another that goes back from the face. Added sight lines in a "T" shape. Big tungsten plug at the rear of the putter for added mass and stability. C-thru putter grips are a nice feature. Blue Chip insert has a crisp yet soft feel.

Cons: Lots of technology going on with this one. Almost too much. Kinda busy in terms of design. I thought the Ping Craz-e was busy, but I think we have a new winner.

Oz T100 Mallet Quality: Seems to be put together well. All the materials are high quality.

Review & Rating Summary: I am all in favor of technology helping to make the game more forgiving. I don't believe that it should be distracting, however. On this day I ended up getting a Rossa CGB. It has the tungsten weights for MOI and all the other techie terms, but it's hidden within the design of the putter. The Nike T100 did put a nice roll on the ball and had great feel. For me it just lacked the "confidence" element that is so critical in putting because of its busy design.
