I went to golf Galaxy and tried every putter under $250. Then tried the omoi 3 and fell in love with it but seen the price was $350 and put it back. Ended up buying a odyssey stroke lab and felt like I made the wrong decision so then returned it and ended up buying the number 3 and I wanted the blue. It looks and feels amazing. Best putter I’ve ever tried including Scotty and Evenroll etc. couldn’t be happier with my purchase.

Here’s some interesting trivia for you, Matt: “Omoi” (重い) means “heavy” in Japanese! The Japanese LOVE wordplay! I’m thinking that the Mizuno putters must be very popular here in Japan-I spend a lot of time visiting used golf club shops and I RARELY see Mizuno putters in them, even though Mizuno products are (understandably) VERY popular here in Japan, which has led me to believe that people might be hanging on to their Mizuno putters… (Note: The Japanese LOVE golf and the price of gear is rarely a consideration when they they buy golf products - they don’t mind showing off the “premium” clubs in their bags!)

I got the 03. Money isn’t value and value isn’t price. I found a putter that looked, felt and performed as I wanted….sold!!

Tested all the ones on the same price bracket and the OMOI 3 was the best. I have never had so much confidence. I am now the greatest putter man in my own mind.

Hi Matt, nice to see a few more OMOI video's come out. It's typically a niche thing with Mizuno putters. I bought the No2, totally blacked out and I've had Scotty's Betti's and the like for years. This is easily as good if not better, Feel is amazing, no compromise there but you are getting a tech improvement in the shaft and grip and even more so in the weight kit customisation. You can even bang a 3 in the heel and a 13 in the toe to get a bit more flow. This to me adds that extra value. At £269 for what you are getting I think is very comparable and TBH a bit of a bargain. Same ole same ole though, Mizuno struggles with marketing on the putter front, and that takes years to embed, they have made great comparable putter for a few iterations. This is the best by far and if it stays in the bag at £269, money well spent but I totally get you view and I wouldn't be surprised if this is still a loss (break even) leader, this is a quality product with quality components. Just need the marketing to catch up and public perception to change :-). Well done Mizuno, top to bottom in the bag, every club is now a real competitor, an Iron ONLY company NO MORE. Hoe you change that perception is what you are doing on tour, more metal woods in bags etc. These could well follow, there is on compromise here and indeed some REAL advances.

The quality of this build is on par with Scotty Cameron putters. I compared a OMOI 3 to a Newport2 for 30 minutes and preferred the Mizuno which was $50 less and included two sets of alternative weights. This is not a $200 putter. I love my BLUE OMOI 3 and the performance is there.I adjust the weights based on green conditions and that is a major plus. Will it make putts for you? No you still need the skill set. For me the added weight/MOI helps get the ball rolling on my desired target line and the great feel of the putter helps with the pace. Its an upper tier putter worth the cash. IMO

I think if you're playing Mizuno equipment to begin with, and you give the putter a fair test and get it fitted, the price wouldn't really be that off-putting for a brand you already know and trust. Especially when 40% of the strokes you play are with the putter. People don't bat an eye at £400 (conservatively) for a driver, but to me it makes a lot more sense to shell out on a well made, well fitted putter.

I actually just picked up the omoi 3 in blue from a golf galaxy for $190. It was preowned but in perfect condition. I'm a god awful putter but when I can hit 3 out of 4 from about 10 feet away, it's going in the bag. I had no idea about this putter, I just tried out as many as I could and this one had the best results.

I got fit for the 02 and have been loving it thus far! Definitely glad I made the purchase.

A lil late to the party though having Played Mizzy irons since I put a set of TN-87 Protos in the bag while across the pond in Scotland in '87(I'm from the States🇺🇸), then I Played the TN-91's followed by the MP blades(14, 29, 33, 68, 69's, which I still bag) ever since, I am very familiar with the Mizzy quality and craftsmanship. That said, I have also bagged their putters, from Scotty's Mizzy Reason, of which 100 were produced, though Scotty kept #1 so 99 were released, the I bagged a Mizzy/Betty Tour honeycomb Anser and while I also rotate Sotty Circle⭕️ T's in with these still, these Mizzy putters are second to none, including any of my Scotties or other Tour line putters. I currently have the baby blue OMOI #3 in the bag and it's worth every penny of that $349.95🤙 Just as the Mizzy MP irons are for serious Players, so to is the M.Craft OMOI Putter Collection for the serious Player. If one is influenced by the marketing garbage, then go buy a Scotty or God forbid, an Odyssey or TBag, lol. However if one wants a truly amazing feeling putter, with typical Mizuno R&D behind its design, not some marketing bullsh!t that some Tour Boy chirps about cuz he's Paid to Play em, then they should give the OMOI a roll. I've got putters that cost much much more than OMOI and they don't touch it, including three(3) L.A.B. putters, all three custom fit. This is the finest retail putter that I've purchased in some time and well worth its price point. Mizuno is Mizuno, just as Benz is Benz!! While I believe that their pricing is superb for the technological design that went into this putter, with the emphasis on head weight and feel, a $349.95 Mizzy putter is not for everyone, just as a $1300+ set of Mizzy irons is not for everyone. However, if you're serious about your putting, and I mean SERIOUS about your putting, and you can afford to drop $349.95 on a putter if you so desire, then you owe it to yourself to roll some with the OMOI🤙 Stay Well Brotha & Continued Success👊 Fairways & Greens 4ever My Friends⛳️ RP

I tried all of them in a fitting against every other putter. I was fitted into the Mizuno M Craft VI. The big selling point was the weight. I need HEAVY heads to feel the stroke and the M Craft VI is SUPER heavy (371g out of the box, but I have the 13g weights in it so its 381g)

If it's the best putter you have tested, i don't see why the price is a problem. It's still cheaper than many brands. Got the O1 in satin, and it's a belter...

I have a Mizuno Bettinardi BC02 putter, and love it. It’s been with me for over 10 years and gives great feedback on all my strokes. Mizuno should promote their putters a lot more.

When I first saw the blue I thought to myself “there’s no way I’m buying this putter he can put this back” but after hitting it I absolutely fell in love with the feel AND the look. Looking down at the black shaft go into that crisp blue Mizuno color, I couldn’t put another cheaper one in my hand I had to buy it. So happy with it

The price for good, and even decent, golf equipment has sky rocketed since COVID hit. I used to go into my local Golf Galaxy and they 3 or 4 racks of used single clubs and many used sets as well. Now they barely have anything and the prices for used equipment are near new prices. I watch you very often Matt and I don't know what you paid for your Evenroll but, you just put 4/5 through the gates and holed 3/5 puts with the Mizuno. You made 1/5 through the gates and holed 0/5 with the Evenroll. I applaud you for putting that out there but you have to consider there is some validity to the test.

I enjoy these review Matt. Bring on more golf collabs

Huge Mizuno fan, I tried these Putters, they felt hard when compared to other Milled Putters. Very nice quality but just what I noticed. I am looking at a SC Phantom 7 or a Bettinardi.

I love the blue finish, the color unique. I have to agree about the price, $299 usd. If they were a bit cheaper I would love to have one. Thanks for reviewing the putters.

Was between these and the Spider GT single bend, since Mizuno only offer the second blade style for lefties. Had to go with the Spider.

You make a good point, Matthew, but there's also the issue of lack of advertising. I don't see or hear any ads for Mizuno clubs, much less their putters. I did see tons of ads for the L.A.B. Golf putters last year and bought one. Mizuno should lower the price, get pros to put them in their bags, or start a more effective ad campaign.

I put a Copper Bereylium Y617 Mizuno from about 25 year ago in the bag for a comp. Cracked 90 for the first time. So many one putts. Mizuno are an undertrusted brand. (I suspect that mallet might be in your bag pretty soon Matt)

There is a material /labor/QC cost to all these putters which puts them in a certain price bracket so you won't see much price difference... but based on your putting results in this video, if that Mizuno was x2 the price of the ER you would still take that on the course.

The last new putter I bought was the odyssey 2 ball blade 20 years ago and it’s still in my bag and I couldn’t swap it out.

I think your negative is ridiculously harsh. These are milled face putters that come with a weight kit. They can’t sell them at £175-200. That’s ridiculous. You can get them online at £229. That’s a bargain compared to other putters. I paid £200(with £50 off) for my Ping Anser last year and that’s got at insert face. The reason you won’t see them in people’s bags is mostly because not many places will stock them. Also people buy brand names because of marketing. I had TaylorMade wedges and driver last year. The build quality was rubbish but everyone wants them. If I’d not bought them from a big retailer, I would have thought they were copies. I’ve got Mizuno irons and they are made much better.

That is so funny, my grandad had put a pool cue in as the shaft of my grandmothers putter for the same reason(this was 20 yearsago). I recently used the putter through 18 holes and once I got used to the fell it worked quite well. 👍🍻🙃

I think the problem may be more on your perception of Mizuno as a brand. I am currently looking at the Queen B #14, Cleveland slant 10.5 and M Craft 3 and 5. For myself, I have always loved Mizuno products since picking up the OG Techfire ball glove as a teen. Still will use it to this day and not very floppy as one would expect 30+ years later. I percieve them as a much better value than the Bettinardi. Even though I have never fallen in love with the look of a putter like the 14. Adjustability is an immense bonus. No one really complains about the cost of a premium Bettinardi but against the $200 CAD bump over the Mizuno, I see a bit of a bargain.

Got the 02 BLUE model week ago. It was a battle between PLD Anser and 02 model and they performed equally well. Mizuno was 130€ cheaper so went for it.

I fancy an Evnroll ER5CS myself but I want to try it first (with the gravity grip). Mizuno makes good equipment, no doubt, but here in the states the irons will fly off the shelves faster.

I don’t know why Mizuno doesn’t get the credit in their putter game as some of the other big brands. Compared to what Taylormade, Ping and even Oddessy (Calaway) are making the Mizuno’s feel incredible. They feel incredibly close to the Bettinardi’s and you can imagine why.

Omigod I have one of those inertia putters... but my is nearly vintage - bought in in 1988 or so. Love it... but now I am thinking, time for an update?

I agree I loved the feel of the M craft but for the price I’d rather get a Scotty second hand

Ive had an M Craft 6 for a little while but I bought it used, for $150... just ordered a OMOI #3, but again found a used one for $215

I love my m craft v, worth every penny to me. I'm afraid to pick up an OMOI, because I would have to buy that too.

I game a custom fitted, M-Craft 3. Out of all the putters I tested during my fitting. This one felt the best and I had so much more control. My putting game, has truly improved. Thank you again Matt, for a great review and great content. Keep up the great work. Cheers!

Hay Matt, I’m in need of a new putter would I be able to get one of them from you please. Love the vids

I really like the blue and for half the price of a scotty or bettinardi it's a no brainer. Would love the anser style one.

Bought the black one but did not like the black sight line so I traded back .. think White would have been a better choice .. traded a my Scotty super select Newport + for the silver one was traded in and got for $250 .. $100 off the $350 price with cover plus store credit on the trade in

Those look great but I have big issues where putters are concerned. Although the quality and technology and PRICE(!!) has moved on in the same way as other clubs, there just isn't the guaranteed improvement in putting that is clear and obvious with drivers, irons, and balls ! Putting is an entirely different sport, imo. See Rory with his prototype putter the other week and he couldn't hole 3 footers ! Putting has not improved at all in a 100 years ! Sure, a new putter may give you confidence and it might help your game temporarily but it won't last. Paying a fortune for the latest Scotty C or ltd edition Ping, in my view, is a complete waste of time. Nothing against your excellent review or those clubs per se, just a personal point 😁

As an amateur hobbyist just getting into the game, who bought a set of strata clubs just to get out on the course. First thing I wanted to upgrade was the putter. I’m turned off by the price point of golf clubs in general, $500 for a driver, 160 for a wedge. 1,000 for irons. But the one that gets me most is the dang putters. 150 for a Kirkland signature is the cheapest high tech putter I’ve come across and then it instantly shoots up to 200-300 from there. I understand it’s an expensive sport, but I can’t justify a putter and a driver by themselves costing twice as much as an entire set of my callaway knockoff stratas.

No question Matt. I would 100% have purchased one last year if not for the price - and I'm a Mizuno fanboy who got one of the blue ST-Z drivers. In Australia they want more than $600AUD for it. It's a bridge too far, Odyssey stays in the bag...for now.

You don’t see the M-Craft putters because they can’t deliver, Mizuno has some really big production problems. I ordered a blue M-Craft VI putter on 6th of July last year. Original delivery date was somewhere in November, then it was delayed to February, then to April and then to somewhere like August or September. Cancelled my order because i’m not waiting for a putter for over a year and managed to get myself a Ping PLD Prime Tyne 4

Would have like to see other mallet options.

I would buy Mizuno all day long over ... Spider or Odyssey putters. I have an Evenroll now

They look good esp the mallet but dang, that price is crazy. I'd never go that high Cheers

Considering the quality and what you get, don't find the price a problem. My only problem is, here in Canada, we can't get them. Out of stock!?

I'd have the blue one!

Didn’t you get 3/5 with the blue Mizuno? The third one missed! Sorry it was confusing me but either way the video was great

Good putters can hole putts with anything. Buy the one you can afford and that suits your eye.

I love my Mizuno m craft

With Mizuno being such a trusted name for irons, why do you all think players do not seem to gravitate towards their drivers, woods, wedges, & putters?

Does the 🐐 Matt Fryer reply?

The blacked out one I sort of like...but not for the price. I'll stick with my 20+ year Ping.

I think they are priced perfectly. I actually see a lot of them

Wish they had other mallet options

Strange you talk about price then look at Scotty Cameron milled very nice putters £90-£100 more expensive, Evnroll again milled (i don't see a lot of them around either on the course or shops) £90-£100 more. How do you justify that amount of money? Mizuno are in the same ballpark as Odyssey Eleven mass produced putters (I use the Odyssey 2 ball) You saying the quality of a Mizuno forged milled putter head with a custom weight set (who else does that?) fitted with a KBS Tour Black ion-plated shaft and Lamkin Sink Fit pistol grip should be sold for around £175-£199. Well what do you say about the price of the others, think you got this very wrong.

Got myself an Mcraft last year, and the feel is just so close to a Scotty that I can’t tell. Definitely not good enough to tell the difference, but the Mizuno brand has caught my eye and I am very happy with the putter. As for the price, I think it actually feels better than the spider and odyssey putters in the price range, granted they have a different face. Definitely a preference, but the quality of the build seems to be worth the price.

Your audio seems to be a bit quiet the last couple of videos. other than that great work!

Even cheaper now. Never rated Taylor Made putters. Overpriced and manufacturing / finish quality questionable. Played Spider Ghost picked up from a bargain bin and the Spider Tour for a few years but the finish does not hold up well. Back to a Scotty Del Mar and now thinking of trying a blade again for off season testing. End of 2023 season these are reduced in price and I think represent excellent value.

I agree 100% I loved the look and feel of the m-craft putters but the price is so high I don't even consider buying one until they're way cheaper.

Love your videos Matt and I watch almost everyone of them, but why are your audio always so low?! :D It's starting to bug me.

Well considering how they are having a hard time keeping them in stock, I think it's selling g just fine

No fang model? 🥺

need a center shaft

Have you tested/reviewed the Cobra king vintage sport -45 putter Matt? I love the look, would like to see why you think of it

Scotty Cameron was the first one to blow the lid off putter prices, now it seems everyone is sprinting down that same path.

The BEST putter you’ve tested so is it in your bag ?

Best quote: "Blue putters are the future!"😂

I think Mizuno is having the same problem marketing their putters as they are with their drivers. Mizuno's drivers and putters aren't nearly as known as their famous irons.

Didn’t you putt better with the Mizuno?

I think you should just buy a putter you love the look of and practice with it. Try not to get too sucked into the technology story. Gonna stick with my Bettinardi Queen B #6 forever I think. Cant pass up the looks and feel. If I miss a putt I know its my fault.

excuse me but it was actually 3 out of 5 with the blue blade putter.

What about the Odyssey knock off by Ray Cooks for $60?

Could be worse. Here in NZ they are $820 (about 400 pounds). For 700 I'd rather get a scotty

Its personal to you really, theres no problem with this range you just proved that.Ive got the blue 03, and you just rubber stamped the reason why i bought it.

Yeah I don’t care for the blue either. The blue makes a otherwise premium putter look cheap to me, but I’m sure there are enough folks who like it that Mizuno keeps it in the line up. A sales graph would be interesting to see. The satin and black look magnificent tho. 👍

When I saw BIG PROBLEM, I thought price of them? Being correct, I do not think they will ever be in my bag, unfortunately.

Got a blue mcraft last year and love the feel and look. Only thing is blue finish is peeling off the back which makes me wish I had gone silver…maybe I’ll switch to the moi in the future

First, you are a REALLY good putter so it's you, not the club. I'd like you to test the LAB MEZZ1 or DF2.1 Putters. IMO the LAB Putters balanced technology have the best technology on the market for average to good putters.

guys if you want to break all kinds of laws by not displaying paid promotions in your videos. Have a look at this video.

Is it that your using it 😂

That even roll putter is seriously ugly, there's no way it would ever get into my bag. The Mizuno's look great even the blue finish.

It’s just demolished your evnroll to be fair

it isn't the T22 Newport 2, no1 problem
