Axis1 Umbra Putter Review (BLADE Design, MALLET Alignment)

The Axis1 Umbra putter is a perfect balance blade model featuring a unique mallet-style alignment aid as part of the design.

The Umbra putter has a similar shaft and blade look as the likes of the Joey putter, but this Axis1 model has an interesting addition to the putter head.

An L-frame alignment has been added onto the club head to provide a blade with the benefits of the elongated mallet sight line of a mallet.

Like all Axis1 putters, the Umbra is perfectly balanced thanks to the counterweight design and in this article we take a look at just how it performs.

What Axis1 says about the Umbra putter:

“A black ion-plated modern blade putter that features our unique L-frame alignment sight lines to give you the alignment benefits of a mallet.

“Our Perfectly Balanced / Torque-free design ensures the clubface will never open up. The putter remains square at address and travels perpendicular to your swing path.

“The Torque-free putter will not twist open at address or windshield wipe open throughout your swing nor will it twist upon hitting the ball.

“For the very first time, our patented heel counterweight places the center of gravity in the center of the striking face and in line with the axis of the shaft.

“Following the evolutions of perimeter weighting and alignment features on putters comes Axis1’s revolutionary Perfect Balance/Torque Free Technology.

“It has a 17-4PH Stainless Steel with black ion plating for enhanced durability, and Stainless Steel counterweight screws for perfect final balance calibration and balance individually.”
