I've recently become obsessed with the Wilson 8802 style putters and I'm definitely going to get one soon. Anyone know any others besides the ones listed below?:
  • Wilson 8802
  • Wilson 8813
  • Cleveland Designed By
  • Arnold Palmer Original
  • Yonex ADK Tour Forged
  • Guerin Rife Bimini
  • YES Sophia
  • KZG Forged Blade (can't find any of these)
  • Snake Eyes Viper Tour 1

I love my Macgregor Tourney IMG5. Got it for $4.

Seems like you would have to have the George Low Wizard 600 (and variants) on the list. I believe the Wizards made by Ram can be had quite inexpensively.

My apologies. I thought you speaking about the more 'low technology putters'. You were referring to the 8802, style. Don't forget the Scotty Cameron Napa Valley.

I have always liked this style of putter but prefer to play with the modern variation (Odyssey #9)

Thanks for all the replies.

Scotty Cameron Nappa

Haha, oops, don't know how I left that off the list.

Can't beat $4. Is it a forged putter?

Wasn't that Jack Nicklaus' putter, the George Low?

I should've gotten that when it first came out. Now there are only a few on ebay. Such a beautiful putter.

Ray Cook Classic Plus II

Yeah, I have the Odyssey Black Series i#9, love the style. I just want an 8802 style blade to go along with it.


I have a Dunlop putter in that style. Picked it up for $15 at Wal-Mart. Hope to get started on stripping it down and refinishing it soon.

The Yes! Nicky would fit this description, it's not much different than the Sophia.

Sweet, are you going to refinish it yourself?

The Nicky really feels great. It looks more like the Calamity Jane. I've never tried the Sophia before.


Sweet, are you going to refinish it yourself?

I'm going to try it. I figure that since it was only a $15 investment to begin with, if I screw it up, I'm not out much.

Pretty sure, I think it is circa 1967ish. The Tommy Armour version is more sought after than the Tourney, but the Tourney is still pretty sweet.

Wasn't that Jack Nicklaus' putter, the George Low?

Yes. I believe the Sportsman George Low Wizard 600 is what Nicklaus won many of his majors with.

Do you know what type of finish yet?

I'm still researching finishes. I'm leaning towards bluing, but I'm not really sure.

About three months ago I took it up to a local golf store to get it regripped prior to putting it into my bag; upon talking to the guy in the "golf repair" section, he yelled out to a guy in the back, "Hey George, come look at this putter!" Then both guys told me what a beautiful putter it was. I've had it in my bag since mid-August.

The ping tess putter is another 8802 type of putter.
