What is each hosel type used for?
Explore the details of each hosel type and the types of putting strokes each style is made for.
Short Slant – (Short Hosel)
Produces more toe hang promoting a more rotational swingpath that releases through the hitting area. This slant neck design has a pin that fits inside the shaft allowing it to flow seamlessly into the putter head, a preferred look by better players.
Mid Slant – (Mid Hosel)
Mid Slant hosel neck creates a mid-toe hang that produces a moderate amount of face rotation. This type of shafting does not promote a pull or a push. The collar-type hosel fits over the shaft with a forward slanting hosel arm that produces a one shaft offset.
Long Slant – (Long Hosel)
Features a two-shaft offset with an additional two degrees of loft to accommodate Evnroll’s new Midlock putter line.
Inline Slant – (Short Hosel)
Inline short slant hosel neck creates the greatest amount of toe hang and therefore the most amount of face rotation. This swing path helps avoid pulling the ball. This design has a hosel pin that fits inside the shaft for a seamless presentation at address.
Short Plumber – (Mid Hosel)
Reduces toe hang and therefore reduces the rotation of the swing path. This plumber neck features a classic over-fit collar-type hosel with a vertical full-shaft offset presentation.
Long Plumber – (Long Hosel)
Further reduces toe hang and allows for a more straight-back-straight-through swing path. This plumber neck features a classic over-fit collar-type hosel with a vertical full-shaft offset presentation.
Here's a comprehensive view of what each hosel looks like from the player's position.
How do I find the right fit?
The best way to evaluate your stroke and test different hosel setups is to book an ERX Fitting and review your data on the Quintic high-speed camera. You will be able to test each hosel type and see data on each compares. An ERX Fitting is one of the best investments you can make in your game.
