Heppler Tyne 3

The Ping Heppler Tyne 3 came out in 2020 as part of the Heppler line, which tgw.com lists as new for that year. Golfalot.com describes the head as fang-shaped, with two prongs extending from toe and heel, still carrying enough of a resemblance to the Anser to read as familiar from address. That resemblance is part of what drew comparison to its stablemate in the line: golfalot.com's reviewer wrote of choosing between the Tomcat 14 and the Tyne 3, "the performance between the two was pretty similar but I was leaning towards the fang shape of the Tyne 3 as it seemed to still look like the familiar Anser shape from address, but the stability of the two prongs gave me a little more confidence to boot."

On construction, golfalot.com reports the head as 2/3 steel weight, thanks to a thicker back flange, with a face machined flat with no grooves and a copper front section. tgw.com separately describes the heads as cast aluminum, a point worth noting since it sits alongside golfalot's steel-weighted account rather than confirming it. Golfalot.com also has the CG moved further back to raise MOI, the putter sitting a little flatter at address, a black chrome adjustable-length shaft running 32 to 36 inches, and an MSRP of £275 GBP, with mygolfway.com separately putting the price at 329 EUR.

Community opinion on the Tyne 3 leans favorable, with notes describing the stable prongs as confidence-inspiring, the putter sitting flatter, and more putts made with this model than others tried alongside it. That lines up with golfalot's own account of leaning toward the Tyne 3 over the Tomcat 14 for the extra stability its two prongs offered, even with performance between the two described as close.
