Immediately picked up two once the store opened and went out to a nearby field to throw few shots. Not very conclusive obviously, but it really seems to be exactly what I thought it would be. A straighter Shield in the best baseline plastic on the market.I got to hold a Macana in my hand after a long while and still feel excited to get one on 25th.
Based on the design of the wing, I'd almost call it the VShield as in Vtech Shield.
It had a convex wing that looked quite similar to the VRoc one except in putter dimensions.
I'd say that the top half of the mold is the same one as in the Shield. Bottom half could be from Dagger, though I never threw it due to such a deep rim. Height and rim depth feel exactly like the Shield. Bead is not that pronounced like someone claimed. I think that the convex wing really hides the bead well when it comes to the feel.
Macana also seems to benefit from a slightly increased glide compared to the Shield, which really helps with putting as you don't have to put quite as much oomph into it. I also threw few drives and it held the line nicely with a very mild fade at the end. I'm sure it will start turning a bit at some point, but that is just a further plus.
I'll have to see how it works on the rounds, but the first impression is really promising. :thmbup:
