The putters used by the top PGA Tour pros in SG: Putting in 2025
Among the top-10 putters on the PGA Tour, just one used a blade-style putter in 2025.
The trend away from blade to mallet putters only furthered this past year. The DP World Tour equipement surverying group, SMS on Tour, recently posted that blade usage on the Euro Tour dropped a further four percent in 2025, down to just 18.4 percent.
There’s no evidence that it’s any higher on the PGA Tour.
In the top-10 of the PGA Tour’s Strokes Gained: Putting rankings for this past season, only Harry Hall used a blade putter, gaming an Odyssey O-Works 1W model. Many traditionalists wouldn’t even classify his wide-body blade as a true blade.
Toward the end of the year, we witnessed Ben Griffin, the top true blade putter for much of the season, switch into a mallet and win at the World Wide Technology Championship. The Spider putter he switched into was the winningest putter family of the season.
Keep reading below for the list of the top-10 players last season on the PGA Tour in Strokes Gained: Putting and what putters they used.

Odyssey Tri-Hot Square 2 Square #7 Custom Putter
We’ve moved Zero Torque Forward.
Odyssey’s new line of S2S TRI-HOT putters is a revolution in the “Zero Torque” category. Using multi-material construction, we have been able to move the CG of these putters far enough forward to get the shaft entering the head on the topline eliminating the need for shaft lean and thus eliminating one of the biggest barriers to entry for this style of putter.
Forward CG and Hosel Position
By moving the CG forward we were able to position the hosel spud on the topline, much closer to the face than typical “Zero Torque” putters for a more natural, intuitive and comfortable set up position.
Multi-Material Construction
By strategically using Aluminum, Steel, and over 140 grams of tungsten we have been able to design a “Zero Torque” putter with more than 80% of its weight under the topline and allowing for our forward CG and hosel position.
New FRD Groove
This new Forward Roll Design Groove is deeper and more aggressive. With a 19° slope it works in conjunction with the dual layer design to improve forward roll up and down the face.
