TaylorMade Review: CGB Fontana Putter

Manufacturer: TaylorMade Golf

Model: CGB Fontana
Category: Putters

Additional Details:

Purchase: Purchased at Golf Galaxy for $139.99. My putting has been holding me back from scoring low lately. I had originally intended to purchase a Rossa Mezza Monza model, but this one came out the clear winner.

Pros: A very good alignment system. It has an extended back flange with 2 parallel sight lines, and another along the back edge of the face. Together they form a "T." Great weighting. They placed 2 tungsten plugs into the sole of this putter which gives it a low center of gravity (like the Rossa TP models, but for less than half the price!)They are especially helpful in keeping the putter head steady. The Titallium insert is much larger than other Rossa models and has excellent feel. Really nice Winn V-17 style grip. The weighting and overall balance is what really sold me.

Cons: Nothing. It has the same design elements as Rossa's "Tour Preferred" series putters, but for a better price.

CGB Fontana Quality: Really nice crafstmanship. No complaints. I have never had a problem with any of my Taylor Made clubs.

Review & Rating Summary: This stick is for those who need help on the greens, period. The tungsten weights really almost make it swing itself. Impossible to align it in the wrong direction. The distance control with the Titallium insert has been superb. Eager to start shaving strokes off my handicap with it!
