Rife Barbados Tour Mallet Putter Review
Rife Barbados Tour Mallet Putter - Made for the Professional, Works for Everyone
The Rife Barbados Tour mallet putter, which comes in traditional-mount and center-mount shaft, is designed based on requirements of touring pros. The oversized stainless steel head provides ample striking surface for well-hit putts. The Barbados is perimeter weighted for higher MOI and fewer off-center putts. The smooth face causes less spin so your putts run truer.
For the technically competent among golfers, the head can be adjusted for alignment, although it is highly recommended you get this done by someone who really knows how to do it properly. The Barbados has a variety of shaft lengths, from 35” to 45”, accommodating golfers of varying physique.
This putter has good balance and feel; important to draining those critical putts. It also makes a good Texas wedge, for those balls that are in the short stuff just off the green. The weight gives it enough heft to move the ball, with sufficient feel so you don’t over hit. Unlike lighter putters, this one has enough weight to push through even the medium grass. You’ll be amazed at how much your game improves when you don’t have to worry about using a pitching wedge or other iron so close in to the pin.
The Barbados sells from $70 to as much as $200; a bit pricey on the high end, but worth the investment, when you consider how much you use your putter in a game.
