5 Zero Torque Putters Worth Your Attention

Bettinardi

Hexperimental #7 — SimplyBalanced

The first heel-shafted putters ever built around Bettinardi's SimplyBalanced zero-torque system. The Hexperimental #7 is a mid-mallet with a plumber's neck — milled in-house, honeycomb face texture, the whole Bettinardi thing. Pre-sale started April 28. The #9 is the blade version if mallets offend you. $550 for either. The kind of putter that makes you wonder if your stroke was ever the problem.

Odyssey

S2S Tri-Hot SB

Odyssey's second pass at zero torque, and this one looks like a putter your dad would recognize. The Tri-Hot SB has a heel shaft, no shaft lean, and the Tri-Hot insert for feel. Pre-orders opened April 16, retail April 24. The whole point is that it doesn't look like a science experiment — it just quietly stops the face from rotating. $399. Odyssey finally made a zero-torque putter that won't get you chirped on the first tee.

Evnroll

ZERO Z5cs — Major Edition

Evnroll's FaceForward ZERO line made the Golf Digest Hot List, and the Z5cs Major Edition is the limited colorway — green and black, hatchback mallet shape, the grooved face that redistributes off-center hits. $449. The ZERO system eliminates shaft lean entirely, so the face stays square through the whole stroke. If you like the idea of zero torque but want a face that also forgives your aim, this is the one.

Wilson

Infinite Zero Torque 606

The Wilson Infinite Zero Torque 606 is the price leader on this list at $249 — and it doesn't feel like a budget putter. Mallet head, center-shaft, clean lines. Wilson has been quietly making serious putters for a while now, and the 606 is their zero-torque entry that proves you don't need to spend $550 to stop the face from twisting. For the price of two sleeves of Pro V1s more than dinner, you get a real zero-torque option.

TaylorMade

Spider ZT

TaylorMade finally brought Spider into the zero-torque conversation. The Spider ZT takes the high-MOI stability the platform is known for and adds a balanced shaft system that keeps the face square without hand manipulation. It's TaylorMade's first entry in the category, which means the R&D budget behind it is probably larger than some brands' entire revenue. $399. The Spider that doesn't want you to think about your hands.
