EVNROLL’s latest in the “V series” continues to tick all of the boxes…

What’s new with EVNROLL?

Since we last reviewed a product in the EVNROLL lineup, the US company has since been sold.

EVNROLL Putters was sold to CREATZ, a Korean high-tech firm that is the parent company of the Uneekor golf launch monitor company. CREATZ acquired a 70-percent ownership stake in Evnroll, with Guerin Rife, Evnroll’s CEO and chief designer, remaining as CEO and remaining on the board of directors. The selling price was estimated to be $15.2 million.

Design

The whole EV5 series is based around a “winged” type design that the user differs slightly depending on the user’s preference on top of the ball and stroke style.

Unlike the 5.1 and 5.2, the 5.3 is the only putter in the series to connect the “fangs” by a rear bar giving you a true mallet feel, it also has the added benefit of you being able to scoop your ball on the “gimmies”.

The EVNROLL EV5.3 Putter boasts a sleek and elegant design that exudes sophistication. The putter’s aesthetics are a blend of traditional and modern elements, making it appealing to a wide range of golfers. With a compact head shape and matte finish, it instils confidence in your setup. The carefully crafted alignment aids are nice and bold, aiding in squaring up to the target line.

Like every other putter in the full EVNROLL EV range, you have the benefit of choosing between 6 hosels and 3 different finishes to suit your preference.

Tourtac Grip

Our first experience using the Tourtac grip was when we reviewed the EVNROLL ER11VX Midlock and we’ve been loving it ever since so it came as no surprise that the inclusion of the Tourtac grip on the EV5.3 already had us excited. Not only does it add a premium touch to the design, it offers both style and functionality making it unlike any other grip on the market you’ll play with.

The “straight cut” on the front and sticky gum feel really helps to add emphasis on getting your shoulders square post grip, Whereas with other grips on the market, it can be very easy to get your hands over and close your shoulders to target.

It does feel slightly strange at first but after a few holes, you’ll start to get comfortable with it and quickly find the right grip pressure as helps keep your thumbs relaxed.

Customisable

There are a plethora of different customisable options to make your EV5.3 truly unique and personalised to you. EVNROLL also allow you to change the colour of paint in the logos.

Performance

Performance wise the EV5.3 was A1. The balance of this putter is beautiful and the design of it really helped with aim.

Whilst all of the EV5 range comes with a cavity back style, the 5.3’s back bar somehow manages to create a closed tunnel that’s identical the the width of the ball allowing you to start the ball rolling on your desired line.

As with other models, The “Sweet Face Technology” effectively minimised distance loss on mis-hits and we were finding a lot more of our 3 putts turning into 2’s and 1’s.

In terms of closer pressure, this is where both the Tourtac grip and the head of the putter both work in harmony together, everything felt light but also incredibly balanced at the same time.

Verdict

The EVNROLL EV5.3 Putter, with its elegant design, innovative technology, and exceptional performance, is a compelling option for golfers of all skill levels.

Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a weekend warrior, the EV5.3 Putter has the potential to help you lower your scores and improve your putting consistency.

The inclusion of the Tourtac grip further enhances its value by providing golfers with a secure and comfortable hold. While it might come with a price tag that reflects its quality, the investment is well worth it for those serious about their putting game.

With a variety of options to choose from too, the EV5.3 series is definitely a putter worth considering for your next purchase.
