After playing with my brother's Cleveland Classic #4 and my Odyssey #5 for the last couple weeks, I've noticed a few things.
-With the blade, I am much more accurate within 10 feet.
-With the mallet, I am much more accurate outside of 10 feet.
-With the blade, I can't get the right speed to save my life - it just beckons me to swing hard or something.
-With the mallet, I can have my balls stop right where I want them to without much effort. It's like the mallet encourages me to be gentle and loving to the ball. This could be attributed to the insert in the Odyssey, compared to the milled face of the Cleveland.
-Despite having the same headweight, the mallet feels much heavier than the blade.
-The mallet looks TINY after staring at the blade for awhile.
Is this a trend, or am I nutso, and bound to "wearing two shoes that fit"
[edit]
I use the same attempt at a straight back, straight forward stroke for both.
