PXG Hellcat ZT Putter

High MOI Putter

The Hellcat ZT is PXG's answer to the golfer whose putter twists in their hands on off-center hits. It's a high MOI mallet, which is a technical way of saying the head resists rotation when you catch a putt off the toe or heel. Miss the sweet spot and the face stays squarer than it would on a blade, so your speed and start line hold up better than they deserve to.

This is a face balanced putter, meaning the face points at the sky when you balance the shaft on your finger. That points to a specific kind of stroke. If you take the putter straight back and straight through with very little arc, the Hellcat ZT works with you instead of fighting you. Golfers who release the putter hard and swing it on a strong arc will feel like it wants to stay open, and they'd be happier in a toe-hang model.

PXG built an alignment aid into the top of the head, and on a mallet this size it matters. You get a clear reference to line up the face and check that your eyes are set over the ball. For a putter that's already forgiving on strike, the visual help on setup closes the loop.

Design

The high MOI comes from where PXG moves the weight. A mallet head this size lets them push mass out toward the perimeter and back, away from the center, which is what raises the moment of inertia and calms the head down on mishits. The face balanced setup is a direct result of that weight layout, and it's the reason the ZT suits a low-arc, straight stroke rather than a big-release one. The alignment aid on top does the quiet work. It gives you a line to square the face to your target and a way to confirm your setup before you pull the trigger. On a forgiving mallet, good aim is the piece golfers most often leave on the table, and PXG made that easier to get right.

Who It's For

• You have a straight-back, straight-through stroke and want a putter that matches it instead of forcing you to add arc.
• You lose putts to off-center contact and need a head that holds its line when you miss the middle.
• Aim is a weak spot in your game and a strong alignment reference would help you start putts on line.
• You want maximum stability from a mallet and don't mind a larger, heavier head behind the ball.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the PXG Hellcat ZT good for a straight putting stroke?

Yes. It's face balanced, which is the setup that fits a straight-back, straight-through stroke with minimal arc. If that describes how you putt, the ZT won't fight your release. If you swing the putter on a strong arc, a toe-hang putter would suit you better.

What does high MOI mean on the Hellcat ZT?

High MOI means the head resists twisting on off-center hits. PXG pushes weight to the perimeter and back of the mallet, so a putt struck off the toe or heel keeps more of its speed and holds its start line better than it would on a smaller head.

Does the Hellcat ZT have an alignment aid?

Yes. There's an alignment aid on top of the head to help you square the face to your target and check that your eyes are set over the ball at address. On a mallet this size, that visual reference is genuinely useful for aim.

Is the Hellcat ZT a blade or a mallet?

It's a mallet. The larger head is what lets PXG spread the weight out for the high MOI and forgiveness, and it's also what makes the putter face balanced rather than toe hang.

Who should skip the Hellcat ZT?

Golfers with a strong arc stroke who release the putter hard. A face balanced mallet like this tends to feel like it stays open through impact for that kind of stroke. Those players will putt better with a toe-hang model.
