Any love out there for the 8802 style putters? I have been thinking about changing from my Bettinardi BB32 which is a face balanced mallet to toe balanced blade style putter. I really like the style and look of the 8802, but I do want something with a milled face. The Bettinardi studio stock 6 is a beautiful putter but I think I can only find that one used now. It's hard to find a used putter in that style where I live, I dont mind buying online but really want to roll one and get a feel for it. Any thoughts? 

This is the style I'm after

I was putting with an old PGA Tommy Armour silver Scot the other day at the golf store used bin.

It really depends on whether you can aim it as well as your current. I like the style and have played around with them a lot. But I know I aim my Anser style putter dead-on-balls accurate because I got fitted with it. The fitter adjusted the loft and lie so my aim was dead center.

Wilson's 8802 does have a milled face now.

I also love the look of them and hope to try one soon. CLASSIC!

I did see that the Wilson is milled, wont have one at my local shop for about a month though. I guess I'm not in a rush because the greens still have snow on them

So i might have a chance to pick up a 2014 select Newport 2, its at my local play it again. With my store credit it would cost me around $100, seems like a pretty good deal that i would hate to pass it up

Remember when the old Acushnet "Bullseye" putter was the coolest? Try hitting a putt with one of those now! I still have one laying around in a closet somewhere!

I keep a Bullseye (with flange) in the study and putt with it every once in awhile.  I was deadly with it in college.  Now I wonder how that ever happened.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 2, 12/31/25.  Similar to yesterday (rainy, no surprise), I hit primarily 6-iron full swings with the same focus;  I also hit some chips (about 1/8 swing) with the 54.  About two dozen full swings and an equal number of short shots.  All of this was indoors, off a mat, into a net, real balls.
