Zebra Z-38 Z2 Putter Review
By S. Dee Davis
It must be called Zebra because of the black and white stripes in the top back of the putter. This putter does not compare in price with all the higher end brands of putters but it does compare in alignment, a textured grooved hard steel face and great feel. It’s a heavy putter with two white alignment lines on the top back to help with lining up the put. In my tests and review with the putter its very accurate from both short and long range and will do well on fast or slow greens due to the natural motion created by the mallet heads design and weight. I found it very accurate. The grip is large and soft and tapers down towards the shaft. The putter is generally not a looker in the appearance category, but it’s functional and well designed. The grip size is a plus to help stead the putter due to the weight of the head. It retails for around $39 well below the average.
