M-Craft OMOI 4

The M-Craft OMOI 4 is the mallet of Mizuno's OMOI line, described by golf.com as a winged mallet and, elsewhere on the same page, as a wide flange blade. Golf.com dates its availability to August 23rd, with a year of 2023, and puts the msrp at 350 USD. Whatever the exact head shape, the defining idea across sources is mass: golf.com describes adjustable weights positioned in the heel and toe of the sole, while tgw.com goes further, noting dual weight ports with 8-gram weights installed and 3-gram and 13-gram weights included to fine-tune the mass. Head weight is given by tgw.com as both 370 gram and 383 gram, and toe hang as both 60° and 40°, so the record has to hold those side by side rather than pick one.

Both outlets describe a face forged from or made of 1025 mild carbon steel, with tgw.com specifying a deep face milling pattern cut by a precision CNC milling process, and golf.com calling it 100% milled, deep face milling. Golf.com lists the finish as ion blue, black, and satin chrome, while tgw.com describes it as white satin, blue ion, or black iron. The build is rounded out by a Lamkin OMOI Sink Fit pistol grip (golf.com's phrasing; tgw.com drops "putter" from the name) and, per tgw.com, a KBS Tour Black Ion-plated shaft, while golf.com describes a lighter shaft to shift the balance point with a black finish. Golf.com also disagrees with itself on left-handed availability, listing the OMOI 4 as both not available and available left-handed.

Reviewer opinion leans favorable on the central premise. One review, cited without a named outlet, praised the heavier head weight for keeping the face square at impact and called the feel soft yet solid, adding that the putter stands out on short range putts. Tgw.com's account is more specific: a tester named Rick right away mentioned that the heavier head weights on these putters is noticeable and does its job of helping keep the face square at impact, which lines up with what the spec sheet is trying to sell, even where the spec sheet itself can't settle on a single number.
