I don't normally write reviews, but this putter is so nice, and so inexpensive, I felt compelled to write a few words. I got back into golf a year ago after a 12 to 15 year hiatus. My putter back then was just a blade, and I was never much of a putter anyway. When I started up again, I spent a couple hundred dollars on an Odyssey Black Series #3 heel shafted mallet. I got my game back into the low to mid 80s over the summer, but my putting was still hurting me. Could not seem to get the feel of the Odyssey or a couple other putters I fiddled with.

This past fall I discovered MacGregor, starting with the purchase of a set of M565 graphite and M685 rifle flighted irons. Yes, at a $150.00 per set you can buy a couple and fool with them. They were so impressive, I bought a new MacTec NVG2 Tour driver to try (for $39), with equal satisfaction. Next came a bunch of V-Foil wedges which are comparable to anything out there, but at only $25 to $30 a pop new. So, I thought why not try a MacGregor putter.

I read a few reviews here and there, and ran across an M5K GT, center shaft, new on Ebay, for which I paid a whopping $22.00 plus $10 in shipping. While I have not yet had it on a green, my practices at home against the Odyssey were nothing less than startling. The weight and balance of the M5K are perfect, and the alignment is a world beyond the Odyssey Black. Likely that has to do with the depth of the putter, although the putter is not gargantuan like many of them out there. I recently spent an hour or so looking at putters at Golf Galaxy and could not believe how large some of the putters have gotten. Why not just glue a VW to a stick?

I know the Black Series #3 may not exactly be an apple to apple comparison. Probably the Odyssey 3 Ball is a better comparison (and less expensive than the Black). But without question the M5K GT is an unbelievably good putter, and without doubt the best putter I have touched When I start consistently holing 2 of four 15-18 footers in practice (sometimes 3 of four), I know I've found a putter. At the ridiculous going rate of $25 to $50 per, I may buy a couple more for safe keeping. I thought MacGregor was Wal-Mart stock. What a mistake that was. This putter and other MacGregor products are definitely worth a look.

as this is mini gt its overall look is not as bad as the bigger versions, if like me you put a line on the ball to set your line this might just be your golfing nirvana, just line the putter line up with your ball line and let it flow anything from 12 feet im sinking 3 or 4 putts and 2 putting is now just a gimmie also the ball rolls very well when lag putting now i need to get it to 6 feet and the jobs done .... next hole please all thanks to macgregor golf

Excellent putter. I decieded to replace my 2 ball putter after a three year affair. I liked my 2 ball and got decent results most of the time.

I changed to the GT 6.4 just beacuse I wanted something different to the 2 ball as everybody seemed to have one. I was also getting mixed results from the 2 ball. I was missing a few short putts.

I liked the feel of the 6.4gt and found it just swung through the ball and did not twist at address. It just felt right. I putted 8 shots from 12 feet in the shop and 7 went in.

I have played 7 or 8 rounds with it and find lag putting is excellent. The distance control I am getting is great. I have also managed to putt one in from the fringe as the head does not get caught up in the grass.

The 5 footers always go in. I find it easier to line up and sink those nerve Jangaling short ones.


Expesnsive compared to the rest. I am not sure why we don't see more of them on tour. Maybe the sponsership deals are better from other manufactures.

Not great. I tried to order a replacement as the orignal one I bought was shop soiled. They sent another one but it was damaged on the corner of the face. I eventually settled for the shop soiled one after 3 weeks of waiting and numerous phone calls.

2 ball,

Excellent putter!!! The putter sets up very nice at address. I really liked the long line that allows you to accurately line up your putt.I'm a pendulum putter and this club is ideally suited for that type of stroke. I was putting 3,6 & 9 footers and lag putting. I was really impreesed with how many putts I sank. The club also has excellent feel. This I appreciated when lag putting.

This is the best putter I have ever owned. I have saved at least 3 strokes per round as my 4 footers are now almost sure and the long putts (including from fringe) leave me with an easy putt. Weight is perfect and the shape makes it easy to line up and make a correct stroke (back and through). Have had the Odyssey 2 ball and this is much better as the weight is better (heavier).

The weight and feel of this putter are excellent. Plus, for a mallet putter, it’s surprising putt well from the fringe and long lag putts across the green. I’ve been strongly recommended this putter to any golfer who uses a pendulum motion putting technique. The only drawback is that this is an UGLY putter. Nevertheless, the second six foot putts become automatic. You will think this is most beautiful thing in the world. Overall, The MacGregor V-Foil GT MOI Putter 6.4K is simply best putter I had ever purchased. I paid $229 from an online retailer. The putter is expensive but it is worth every penny
