Evnroll EV5 2023 Putter Overview
It’s possible you’ll not see an Evnroll putter within the arms of the world’s greatest gamers (but) however that’s to not say the model isn’t making its mark on the class. This yr has seen an enlargement of the V-Collection, inside which the flagship mannequin is the EV5 as a consequence of its ‘3×3 versatility’. This refers to the truth that it’s obtainable in numerous shade mixtures through three rear interchangeable chassis designs.

As soon as you establish the correct hosel and grip choice it is then a query of attaching it to the proper precision CNC Milled 303 chrome steel face and entrance part – you might have a selection of satin with a black sightline or black with a white sightline. You then select the chassis that fits your eye one of the best.
The all black EV5.1 (£469) is the cleanest and most premium wanting of the three choices. Then there’s the EV5.2 (£419) which affords a regular single high sightline and two cavity sightlines that draft off the rear middle line on an all-satin head. It additionally contains a linear rear wing for macro aimers. Lastly, golfers can go for the duo design on the EV5.3 (£419), which advantages from macro and micro parallel and perpendicular aiming by way of the usage of twin shade entrance and rear sections.
For us, it was the EV5.2 mannequin that carried out one of the best, presumably as a consequence of that additional alignment assist from the added sightlines, and is the one which we expect can have essentially the most common attraction as among the finest golf putters. It is also the one form obtainable with the Midlock placing grip which makes implementing the Armlock placing methodology really feel simpler.
No matter the way you construct your EV5 putter, it can function the distinctive groove know-how engineered to ship uniform efficiency throughout the complete hitting space. It makes use of a sequence of closely-spaced, variable-width channels which might be wider within the centre and get progressively narrower towards the heel and toe. This creates a exactly calibrated inward V-shape that progressively redirects the ball down the goal line. It seems like very intelligent stuff and I feel it really works in serving to putts from inside 10 toes journey nearer to the proper line, albeit in a refined method.
Management over route is actually helped by the wonderful midsize Tour Tac grip that comes as commonplace. It feels smooth however not too spongy and has markers so you may place your thumbs in the identical place each time for consistency.
The addition of six weight ports present precision weighting for focused swing weighting in addition to dynamic toe movement choices and forgiveness advantages. The EV5 is undoubtedly one of the crucial forgiving putters round. Regardless of being a compact mallet, the pinnacle feels extra secure than earlier Evnroll putters of the same dimension and helped by the particular grooves on the face, I used to be capable of knock putts usually to inside gimmie vary from lengthy distance and scare the opening incessantly from 20 toes and in.
Evnroll putters have at all times impressed me and the ER2V mannequin stays in my bag however the brand new V-Collection, and the EV5.2 particularly, actually takes efficiency and innovation a step or two additional by opening up a complete new degree of customisation for golfers to profit from the marginal features that may remodel a great spherical into an excellent one.
