The ultra-premium multi-material putter has an extremely high resistance to twisting with one of the highest Moment of Inertia (M.O.I.) ratings of any putter available on the market.
Interchangeable weights on the sole of the Wingman putter come in 3, 8 and 15 grams, with the 3-gram weight being the standard option. A separate interchangeable weight kit including two 8-gram weights and two 15-gram weights gives golfers the option of adding or subtracting more overall weight to the heel and toe of the clubhead to obtain their preferred feel.
Many golfers choose to adjust the overall weight to lighter for faster greens and heavier for slower greens. The standard head weight of the Wingman putters is 355 grams with the 3-gram weights. By using the weight kit, nine different possible weight combinations and six different head weights can be achieved with the Wingman weighting system, with a maximum head weight of 379 grams being possible.
Adding more weight bias weight to heel to toe is also something savvy golfers will take advantage of in the Wingman design. More weight in the heel will assist those who lag and leave the toe open in their stroke. Golfers with a tendency to pull their putts will benefit from more weight on the toe.
The face insert is made from a Surlyn that was fine tuned to find the optimal durometer hardness rating that determines the sound
and feel of the face.
The Wingman putter face features MicroGroove technology that provides a soft, yet pure feel upon contact. The horizontal MicroGrooves improve forward roll earlier in the putt and reduces skidding off the face to create a better roll.
Also helping to perfect roll is a Carbon Fiber sole plate on the bottom of the Wingman. The sole plate helps redistribute weight to the sides and back of the clubhead to help increase the M.O.I. and acts as an internal structure to further improve sound and feel.
The stock shaft of the Wingman series is the KBS CT Tour putter shaft, the first shaft KBS has manufactured for a putter. This stepless steel-putter has a stiffer structure throughout the shaft and specifically in the tip to provide more stability. The firmer profile makes the putter feel easier to control and provides better head awareness. The steel shaft features a black PVD paint job that matches the look and feel of the Wingman head and provides a cool graphite look that has become popular on the PGA TOUR.
A jumbo Wingman branded Sink Fit Straight grip from Lamkin features a distinctive contoured shape and exclusive Fingerprint Technology. The Sink Fit Straight encourages lighter grip pressure and a smoother putting stroke.
Three hosel options are available, the Wingman-01/Toe-Hang hosel, Wingman-02/Face-Balanced and Wingman-03/Center-Shafted model. All models are available in 33”, 34” and 35” in RH only.

Just curious if you have had a chance to compare this one against the Odyssey Triple Track 10.
ReplyDeleteNo direct comparisons at the Show. I know however just from my reactions to all putters I hit over a few days that Wingman stood out for its stability.

ReplyDeleteDid you try the wingman? How did the insert feel?
ReplyDeleteSurlyn insert is soft, but not so soft that it's not responsive. A good mix of feel and feedback.
