Array

The Edel Array line arrives on the Record as a 2024 body of work: the F-1 head, the broader Array line itself, and the Array System that sits underneath both. All three carry the 2024 edition tag, and the record treats the System less as a single putter than as the fitting architecture the F-1 and its stablemates are drawn from.

That architecture is the part reviewers keep circling back to. pluggedingolf.com described the Array System as offering four head shapes (B-1, F-1, F-2, F-3) across four necks, adding up to what the outlet counted as 72 mallet combinations and 8 different blades, with alignment handled through six different alignment plates featuring dots, lines, and perpendicular lines and adjustment done, per that same review, with a Torx wrench sold separately. pluggedingolf.com called it easily one of the best putter fitting systems I've come across, and it's enhanced by Edel's willingness to open it up to the golfer, a framing echoed in the Community's own read on the system as an open-system philosophy built around user-friendly adjustability.

The F-1 head is where that system got tested with a putter in hand. amateurgolf.com's build ran three dots for alignment, chosen from options the outlet described as blank, single line, double line, triple line, three dots, or 'T' alignment, and came away calling it a modern, new-age design but doesn't go too far out of the box, a really solid, face-balanced design that accommodates my slight arc. drivingrangeheroes.com landed on a similar shape from a different angle on feel, noting I wouldn't say it's firm and clicky, but the overall design allows for a less muted feel, a mixed note against the sharper Community criticism logged elsewhere of the F-1's 25-gram weights being less consistent on lag putts and its face reading clickier, more metallic off center than the mallets it's fitted alongside.

Zoomed out to the line itself, amateurgolf.com's verdict was simple: I was happy to see that the Edel Array line exceeded my expectations. Between that and the Community's own praise for the high level of customization and strong lineup, the Array reads, across its three 2024 entries, as a line defined less by one signature head than by how far the fitting system underneath it is willing to bend.
