What it does: There is no equipment-industry proclamation that a beautiful-looking putter has to cost the same as a car payment. The crisp bearing of these blades comes from surface milling on the bodies of the 303-stainless-steel cast heads. Further classing up the appearance is the hydro-blast finish, a high-powered jet stream of water that smooths out every edge.

Why we like it: As on Tinder, looks might start a conversation, but you had better tell a good story, too. These putters do thanks to the little things such as hidden pockets and channels that help reposition the saved weight for more forgiveness in the form of heel and toe weight screws. However, it’s the grooved faces that provide the ultimate ‘swipe right’: better roll for optimal distance control.
