We already have the data on the best blade putters of 2026.
Our testing looked at performance across short, medium and long putts using PuttView, giving us a clear picture of which models help golfers hole more putts.
But, sometimes, it’s just as interesting to look at what golfers are buying.
We asked PGA TOUR Superstore which blade putters are selling the most right now and compared that to our test results. Instead of focusing on individual models, we looked at it from a brand perspective to see where performance and popularity overlap.
If you’re trying to decide which putters to test this season, this gives you a much clearer starting point.
Where performance and popularity align
These are the brands where performance and popularity overlap. The same names showing up in our testing are also the ones golfers are buying most often.
PING
| Category | Models |
|---|---|
| Best Sellers (PGA TOUR Superstore) | PING Anser 2, PING PLD Milled, PING Scottsdale |
| Top Performers (2026 MGS Test) | Scottsdale Anser 4 (-4.5), Scottsdale Anser 2D (-4.3) |
PING is the clearest example of golfers getting it right. Multiple Scottsdale models finished near the top of our test and delivered strong performance across all distances. The Anser-style shapes that dominate retail shelves are the same ones producing some of the best results in testing. If you’re choosing a PING blade, the data supports it.
COBRA
| Category | Models | Key Insight |
|---|---|---|
| Best Seller (PGATSS) | LIMIT3D Pista-60 | 3D-printed design driving retail interest |
| Top Performers (2026 Test) | 3DP Tour Grandsport (-3.7), MIM Sport (-2.7) | 3D-printed model delivers strongest results |
COBRA’s presence in both retail and testing is driven by its 3D-printed lineup. The LIMIT3D Pista-60 golfers are buying shares the same design philosophy as the 3DP Tour Grandsport, one of the stronger performers in our test. That connection between technology and performance is clear. The 3D-printed designs show enough consistency to earn a spot on your list of putters to try this year.
Scotty Cameron
| Category | Models | Key Insight |
|---|---|---|
| Best Seller (PGATSS) | Titleist Studio Style (Newport family) | Premium blade lineup dominating retail |
| Top Performers (2026 Test) | Scotty Cameron Super Select Newport 2 (-3.3), Newport (-2.9) | Upper-tier performance with consistent results |
The Studio Style lineup is one of the top selling options at PGA TOUR Superstore. In our results, the Newport 2 finished at -3.3 Overall PuttView Handicap, with solid performance across short (-3.9) and long putts (-6.4). The standard Newport wasn’t far behind at -2.9 overall. While both models delivered solid performance, the Newport 2 showed a more consistent profile across distances and finished higher in the overall rankings.
The popular putters that didn’t keep up
Odyssey continues to be one of the top-selling putter brands at PGA TOUR Superstore. From multiple Ai One models to the DFX lineup, it’s one of the most visible names on the best-sellers list.
But when we look at Odyssey’s performance in our 2026 blade putter test, the results fall in the bottom half of the field.
We tested the Odyssey AI-Dual DW and AI-Dual #1, both of which finished at -2.3 Overall PuttView Handicap. The biggest issue showed up in medium putts where performance dropped off significantly—most notably with the DW at +6.4. That inconsistency across distances made it difficult for Odyssey to keep up with the top-performing brands, even though short-putt performance remained relatively stable.
The one people should be buying (But aren’t)
The best-performing blade putter in our 2026 test wasn’t a PING, Scotty or Odyssey.
It was Mizuno.
The M.Craft Osaka separated itself from the field with a -5.5 Overall PuttView Handicap, the best result in the entire test. It delivered elite performance on short putts (-6.5) and long putts (-7.4), something very few putters in this field were able to do. This wasn’t a one-area standout. It was consistently strong across all distances.
And yet, it’s not a name you hear often when golfers are talking about blade putters at retail. The performance is there so it may be worth adding to your list of putters to try.
Final thoughts
Some brands prove that popularity and performance can line up. PING is the best example. Scotty Cameron holds its ground. COBRA is trending in the right direction. If you’re looking for a new putter in 2026, take a look at our complete results of the best Blade Putters.
Keep in mind that programs like PGA TOUR Superstore’s Players Club Plus also make it easier to get this right, with a free annual putter fitting (a $99 value) and daily practice access to test multiple models side by side.
