Good review Sophie, harsh on forgiveness as it’s a million miles from your comfort zone 2 ball mallet and style. I use the 8802 as it offers ultimate feedback, and so pace control, but note the sweet spot is slightly ‘heel side’ of centre face (perhaps added to your struggle). Yippers should not even think about trying it.
A very sound review from Sophie. I purchased the new putter several years ago for about £120.
It is an elegant putter with a quality construction.and it will suit a golfer with a very good, repetitive and natural stroke.
As Sophie says, this blade will not forgive a poor strike but it is great fun to use. I have added a removable alignment mark which has helped. Would I use the Wilson in an important match, sadly not, because my putting isn’t good enough.
At £400 it’s very expensive but it has a classy history and will have a minority appeal.
