Evnroll’s new ZERO putters function a novel hosel design that eliminates face rotation, retaining the Face Ahead through the placing stroke.
The Evnroll ZERO putters are constructed from chrome steel and plane aluminum.
They are going to be accessible late October with a MSRP of $449.
Evnroll simply introduced a brand new line of ZERO putters. Naming them “ZERO” is a bit ironic since there are far more than zero fascinating issues happening with these new Evnroll putters.
The ZERO line options two totally different mallet designs and one familiar-looking blade. One of many mallets is offered in three totally different anodized end colours. Most significantly, the putters have one of many wildest hosels you’ve ever seen and, for some cause, there are penguins on the headcovers.
That every one looks as if the other of zero to me.
Evnroll had a few causes for naming these putters ZERO. One you may most likely guess if you’re acquainted with Evnroll applied sciences however the different cause for the ZERO title got here as fairly the shock.
ZERO Mishits
All the new ZERO putters function Evnroll’s SweetFace Know-how face milling. Evnroll believes inheritor face grooves will enable golfers to have “ZERO” mishits.
With regards to putter face grooves, Evnroll’s grooves are the most effective within the enterprise. Their patented SweetFace groove sample not solely ensures even roll distances throughout the face however the grooves additionally right for dispersion.
You’re, after all, going to mishit putts once in a while however the SweetFace grooves flip these misses into makes. Technically, that will make it ZERO miss hits on the scorecard.
ZERO Face Rotation
Anybody acquainted with Evnroll skilled ZERO shock after they discovered that these putters can have Evnroll face grooves. In distinction, I’d be shocked if you weren’t shocked whenever you first acquired a take a look at the ZERO hosel design.
No, Guerin Rife didn’t by chance put the plumber’s neck in backward. That’s how it’s imagined to look.
Whereas the neck does look unfamiliar, the aim of the neck may be very acquainted within the present putter market. The form and place of the neck produce a putter that has a “toe up” toe dangle and a face that doesn’t open and shut through the placing stroke.
Sure, you learn that accurately. The massive cause behind Evnroll naming these ZERO is that the face has zero rotation through the placing stroke. The shortage of rotation permits the face to stay sq. to the swing path when you take your stroke. The face is all the time pointing ahead relative to the trail and this could end in you returning the putter sq. to the ball at affect.
In case you are sq. at affect, your putt will roll away on the meant goal line and hopefully into the opening.
I’ll come again to the face rotation dialogue in only a bit however first let’s take a look at the Evnroll ZERO putter fashions.

The Evnroll ZERO Z2s is much like Evnroll’s most celebrated mannequin, the ER2. The ZERO Z2s retains the general profile of the ER2 however is a bit shorter heel to toe and wider entrance to again. It’s a wide-body blade, maybe blurring the road between blade and mallet a bit.
Regardless, I consider this would be the gateway ZERO putter within the set for many individuals curious concerning the ZERO design’s performance. Whereas the reverse hosel seems unconventional at handle, the general look ought to nonetheless be very acquainted to ER2 gamers.
Because the SweetFace grooves are milled immediately into the chrome steel physique, the affect really feel can be acquainted as effectively to these of you who play pre-Neo Traditional Evnroll fashions.
I’m to see if the brand new V2s can reside as much as the Most Wished Blade pedigree of the ER2. May the brand new ZERO structure probably make an incredible putter even higher?

To me, the chrome steel Evnroll ZERO Z5s seems just like the Evnroll EV5.3 mallet with only a smidgen of blade putter added to the recipe. The general profile is mallet however the entrance finish of the putter has bumper shapes and central alignment components extra generally present in Evnroll’s blades.
It jogs my memory of the Toulon Alcatraz H1 as effectively, with the apparent exception being the novel ZERO neck.
One of many strengths of the Z5s is its central alignment scheme. The 2 dots on the highest line mean you can simply middle the putter on the ball. The cavity sight line and the parallel edges of the wings are then used to intention on the goal.
The Z5s has fairly a lot of totally different angles and contours within the design however someway all of them work collectively right into a coherent visible system.

In some ways, the Evnroll ZERO Z1 design is a reinterpretation of the earlier Evnroll ERZ mallet. The ERZ and the brand new ZERO Z1 are manufactured from plane aluminum, have related four-pointed shapes and a gap in the course of the top.
From there, although, the designs deviate into different instructions.
The 2023 ERZ had weights in all corners as a way to enhance MOI. The ZERO Z1’s weights are positioned within the entrance corners, with a lot of the rear materials faraway from the underside. Have been it not for the novel hosel, this weight distribution shift can be the massive story because it dramatically shifts the MOI and the way the putter would really feel with a standard neck.
Nevertheless, the neck shouldn’t be conventional. The ahead weighting works with the hosel form and place to eradicate rotation through the stroke. Like the opposite putters within the ZERO lineup, the face stays forward-facing through the stroke.

The Evnroll ZERO Z1 may also be accessible in pink and blue. The pink end may be very vivid however not glare-producing even in full solar. The hue appears to shift a bit between pink and raspberry relying upon the lighting.
The pink model of the Z1 comes with a pink model of the Evnroll Neo putter grip.

The blue Envroll ZERO Z1 mallet is a looker. As with the pink end, the blue end is lustrous with out being distractingly reflective. For comparability, the anodized end is way much less reflective than the chrome shaft.
I’d say it’s the flashiest of the three end choices and that’s not a criticism. I’ll offer you one guess which coloration Z1 was the one which I took to the course.
Sadly, neither the blue or the pink choice is at present accessible for left-handers.

Play testing the Envroll ZERO fashions
Certainly one of my favourite issues to do is to toss a brand new putter into my bag and instantly apply it to the course. No observe session first. The primary putt on the course is the primary putt with the putter.
It’s not an incredible system for low scores however it’s fascinating to see how putters work underneath strain in comparison with informal observe inexperienced utilization.
This time, I had three new putters within the bag, leading to three totally different placing experiences.
The blue ZERO Z1 led off the spherical. I’m not ashamed to confess I acquired pulled in by the dreamy blue hues of the top. Typically, shiny objects catch my eye.
The milled aluminum Z1 is bed-full-of-kittens mushy at affect. I really like the texture of milled aluminum mallets and the Z1 didn’t disappoint.Â
After I noticed the putter, I wasn’t positive about how the alignment scheme would work. Two lengthy traces and a gap in the course of the top shouldn’t be a typical aiming system. I discovered it to be a bit like utilizing an Odyssey 2-Ball. I’d line the opening within the putter up with my ball, utilizing the lengthy traces to trace the goal line. After somewhat adjustment, it labored very effectively.
I did discover that my distance management was a bit off with the Z1. Most of my misses have been on-line however quick. A bit extra observe, or maybe swapping out the weights, may very well be the answer for this.
The Z2s and Z5s have been similar to one another on the course. My distance management improved with the swap from aluminum to chrome steel. These two put somewhat extra pop on the ball for me than the aluminum Z1 did.
The ZERO hosel state of affairs went from distracting to a non-issue after just a few putts. I feel that having the shaft angled like a standard putter helps. It might enter the top in an uncommon method however it nonetheless looks as if you’re utilizing a standard putter.Â
After a while on the course, the Z5s was the winner for me, most likely as a result of I’ve performed variety of rounds with a equally formed Toulon Alcatraz this summer time.
The Z2s must be an enormous vendor for Evnroll. It seems like the favored ER2 and has know-how to make you much more correct. That looks as if “massive vendor” system to me.
I do know I mentioned it earlier than, however the different-looking neck is simply not that distracting when you spend a while rolling balls with it. Initially it was odd-looking however it rapidly simply grew to become a non-distracting non-issue.
What’s up with the penguins?
Sure, there are penguins on the underside of the mallet headcovers. Such as you, I had no concept why there can be penguins on a putter cowl.
I dig penguins however I didn’t see the connection.
Evnroll added penguins to the headcover since penguins are recognized to stroll the best path to a vacation spot. One leads and the others comply with. That signifies that all the penguins are Face Ahead, just like the ZERO putters are through the stroke.
The truth that there are 18 species of penguins additionally offers them a numerical relationship to golf.
Ignoring all of that, the addition of the penguins provides a enjoyable factor to the headcover and I’m right here for that.
Last ideas on the Evnroll ZERO putters
It seems just like the putter story for the approaching season could show to be torque-balanced/zero-rotation/face-forward putters. PXG simply launched their rotation-free Allan putter just a few weeks again, and now Evnroll has launched an entire line of putters geared towards an analogous design objective.
The no rotation design goal shouldn’t be a brand new factor. Many corporations have produced variations of zero-rotation or torque-balanced putters up to now. The PING Kushin 4 was a toe-up design. Odyssey tried it with each their BackStryke and Toe Up putters.
Most lately, L.A.B. Golf’s Lie Angle Balanced putters have taken the design to the following degree of precision and are additionally largely answerable for the design gaining reputation with tour gamers and with newbie golfers as effectively.
It is smart from a enterprise perspective that an organization would try to seize among the momentum from golf’s hottest factor. This new Evnroll ZERO line is their spin on the “lack of spin” design.
Preliminary testing suggests these ought to show aggressive within the corral.

FAQ: Evnroll ZERO Putter Line
As I mentioned, we’re going to see loads of putters with the sort of design this yr. The design idea does predate L.A.B. Golf however they’re those that acquired the mainstream to concentrate to it. For shoppers, selections are all the time factor, assuming the alternatives are good.For instance, do you know that Coke hit the market a couple of dozen years earlier than Pepsi? Although not the identical recipe, they’re each cola-based sodas. A few of you on the market favor Coke, others Pepsi. So far as the businesses go, there’s loads of client cash on the market to make each of them very profitable.
Completely. By rolling the chrome steel heads and the aluminum heads facet by facet, it’s readily obvious how a lot softer the aluminum feels. Softness desire is a kind of issues that varies drastically from golfer to golfer. I do know that my distance management improves with a firmer-feeling putter. For different individuals, if it feels too agency, then they are going to discover the placing expertise disagreeable.
I had the identical query after I was fascinated with altering the weights within the Z1 to assist with distance administration. The reply is not any. You may change the weights to suit your swing weight desire and the face will nonetheless keep ahead.
In fact they are going to. Evnroll is aware of that these new ZERO putters are a strong design however I don’t assume that they assume that everybody will transfer to this type of putter. The opposite fashions within the Evnroll household will proceed to be provided so individuals can select the most effective putter for them. That mentioned, if these are massive hits, I’d anticipate to see extra ZERO fashions sooner or later. I’d like to see a white EV12 get the ZERO remedy.
