FINDING YOUR PERFECT PUTTER: A DEEP DIVE INTO THE SYSTM2 FAMILY
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Choosing the right putter can feel complicated. Hosel types, toe hang versus face-balanced, blade versus mallet—the terminology creates confusion. Understanding what these terms mean and how they relate to your putting stroke makes the selection process clearer, whether you're working with a fitter or exploring options on your own.
That's where TaylorMade's SYSTM2 family comes in. Seven putters. Expert craftsmanship across every model. Each designed to complement different stroke styles and visual preferences. Premium 304 stainless steel, precision-milled faces, and two-tone finishes define the family—but the real value is having options that match your stroke and style.
Let's break down each SYSTM2 putter and help you identify which one might be your best match.
THE BASICS: HOSEL TYPES AND WHAT THEY MEAN
Before we examine individual putters, you need to understand hosel configurations—they determine how your putter behaves during your stroke.
An L-Neck hosel creates what's called "toe hang." Hold the putter by the grip with the shaft parallel to the ground, and the toe drops downward. This happens because weight is distributed in a way that encourages the face to rotate closed through impact. Golfers with an arcing stroke—those who naturally release the putter head and rotate the face—benefit from toe hang because it complements their natural motion. A Short Curve hosel configuration is also available and provides another option with toe hang within two of the SYSTM2 models.
A Single Bend hosel creates "face-balanced" performance. Do the same parallel test, and the face stays square to the sky. This configuration resists rotation, keeping the face square throughout your stroke. It suits golfers whose motion travels straight back and straight through without much face rotation.
Most golfers naturally lean toward one stroke type or the other, and understanding your tendency helps guide your search. But the beauty of the SYSTM2 family is having multiple options within each category—giving you choices even after you've identified your general stroke style.
BLADE OPTIONS
The Soto L-Neck and Short Curve appeals to golfers drawn to traditional blade aesthetics.
Its defining characteristic? Soft, flowing curves and rounded bumpers that create a gentle visual at address. There's nothing aggressive or angular about the Soto—it's refined and classic. If you appreciate traditional blade shapes, the Soto L-Neck and Short Curve might speak to you.
The hosel creates 43° of toe hang with full-shaft offset, making this well-suited for golfers whose stroke path follows a curve. Natural releasers who rotate the face through impact will find the Soto complements their motion seamlessly.
The Soto Short Curve hosel with ¾ shaft offset sets up with a 55° hosel configuration.
Collin Morikawa won the Open Championship with the Juno’s sharp, clean profile that clearly defined alignment on the windswept links greens.
The Juno L-Neck features squared back bumpers and crisp, defined edges that create bold visual references. If you prefer geometry that's clean and precise over soft curves, the aesthetic of Juno will resonate. Those sharp lines aren't just for looks—they help golfers align more confidently by providing clear framing around the ball.
Like the Soto, the Juno L-Neck offers 43° of toe hang with full-shaft offset. The stroke type fit is identical—the difference comes down to whether you prefer gentle curves or defined edges at address.
The Del Monte L-Neck and Short Curve represents the wide-body blade option of SYSTM2.
While the Soto and Juno are compact, the Del Monte extends backward, creating a larger blade profile with more visual presence. You still get blade aesthetics and the soft feel blade players value, but with dimensions that offer reassurance at address.
The hosel creates 40° of toe hang, slightly less than the Soto or Juno. This suits golfers with an arcing stroke who prefer a blade look in a profile that provides more visual confidence at setup.
The Del Monte Short Curve features ¾ shaft offset providing 51° of toe hang and is also designed for golfers with an arched putting stroke.
MALLET OPTIONS
Mid-mallets typically pair with face-balanced hosels, but the Bandon L-Neck breaks that pattern.
This putter delivers the visual benefits of a mallet—clear sight lines, alignment-friendly shape, reassuring presence—while maintaining toe hang for golfers with arcing strokes. It's an uncommon combination that solves a specific problem: what if you prefer mallet shapes, but your stroke naturally rotates?
The L-Neck creates 33° of toe hang with full-shaft offset. The Bandon features a mid-mallet profile that provides visual confidence at setup while the hosel configuration supports natural face rotation through impact.
The Bandon Single Bend offers the same mallet shape as the L-Neck version but with a different hosel configuration.
Face-balanced design keeps the putter square throughout your stroke, making this suited for golfers whose motion stays on a straight path. Visually, you're getting the same mid-mallet benefits—clear sight lines and alignment-friendly shape.
The Ardmore L-Neck features 31° of toe hang—the lowest in the L-Neck lineup.
This configuration works well when your putting stroke has slight rotation but doesn't follow a pronounced arc. Think of it this way: if aggressive face rotation feels like too much but keeping the putter perfectly square doesn't match your natural tendency, this putter bridges that gap. The mallet profile delivers clear visual references at address, while full-shaft offset keeps your hands positioned traditionally. For golfers whose stroke exhibits subtle movement rather than dramatic release, the Ardmore L-Neck matches that motion without fighting it.
THE BOTTOM LINE
What separates SYSTM2 from other putter lineups isn't just premium construction—it's offering genuine variety within that premium tier. Each of these seven putters serves a distinct purpose, matching specific stroke types and visual preferences rather than asking every golfer to adapt to a single design philosophy.
Your ideal putter depends on how you stroke the ball, what you see at address, and what inspires confidence when you're standing over a crucial putt. The question isn't which SYSTM2 putter is best—it's which one is best for you.
Seven putters. One complete system. Precision 2 Perform.
