Wilson Infinite Men's Golf Putter

Product Information

For over a century Wilson Staff has been at the forefront of golf technology and design, constantly evolving their manufacturing techniques to bring their loyal customer base the best in terms of performance and style.

The overall feel and even the technology used to create this putter are nothing revolutionary. It’s a bit basic when we look at advancements in technology, weighting and shaft technology. However, this does help keep the price down.

The feel off the double-milled face is also pleasant. It’s more of a soft, gentle thud than a high-pitched ping, but there’s plenty of power to boot. This dedication to detail and excellence can be seen throughout the brand’s equipment lines including their extensive and reasonably priced range of golf putters. Expertly crafted for the golfer looking to improve alignment and ball positioning, Wilson Staff golf putters focus on promoting more consistent stroke play. By offering a comprehensive mix of mallet and blade putters, the brand has tried to ensure there is a club for every player regardless of age or ability. They even offer a number of superior models specifically engineered for ladies. The Infinite range of putters all feature a double milled face, counterbalanced grips for added control, and a dark ain’t-glare finish.

The amount of control that players had with the Wilson Staff Infinite and the comfort they had at setup were both significant positives.Beyond the lines, each putter has a grey smoke PVD finish which is both glare-reducing and durable. All of these classic styles are faithfully reproduced but with the modern touch of a deep-milled face. The most impressive feature of the putter is the smoothness of the tempo it facilitates. The weight of the putter head really helps produce a pendulum-like motion and the low point is consistent from green to green. The head has also been treated with an anti-glare finish, which repels the sun and helps emphasize the three white sightlines on the flange that aid with alignment. Looks/feel are the most important criteria for selecting a putter. Tech matters less, because you have to love the look and feel. The weighting, alignment lines, counterbalanced technology and overall feel set players up for success from this range. Overall

These classic head shapes have been updated by Wilson Staff in two important ways. First, the head weight of these putters is either 355 or 365 grams, depending on the model. These heavier weights are in keeping with the modern trend toward more weight and more stability. The second update is adding a large, heavy, counterbalanced grip. Each putter comes with a 104 gram grip which moves the balance point closer to the hands. I enjoyed using the Lake Shore because I felt the counter balancing was noticeable but not overdone. I felt a little extra heft in my hands, but I didn’t feel like I was swinging a sledge hammer. Additionally, I like the fact players who don’t want the counter balancing can simply change the grip to get a traditional feel. The West Loop putter is a broader blade which is a trend on Tour and bridges the gap between traditional Anser styles and mallet, taking the best bits from both. The putter continues the tradition of being named after landmarks and neighbourhoods in the brand’s home city of Chicago. I used to work with a guy named Ned. Ned’s been retired for a while, but he had this down-home, folksy way of letting you know he’d been there and done that, especially if you hadn’t. It’s not the perfect putter, though. On top of the head, there’s a lot going on, which can be a bit distracting. What’s more, the three sightlines – which don’t provide the most premium aesthetic – will divide opinion.So the hard question is this: if looks and feel are really the most important criteria for selecting a putter, and if putting success has little to do with the club and virtually everything to do with the golfer, and if tech putters (and boutique putters, for that matter) are too damned expensive…. The grip includes an oversize design construction to provide a stable feel and limits rotation during stroke. The heavy grip (104 grams) helps create the counter-balanced putter feel.
