SPOTTED - Wilson Vizor Putter

[GolfSpy_X]

We have gotten a sneak-peek of these a couple times this year but until now we were not able to get good pics for you guys to see what Wilson has been working on for their new mallet:

Looks nice, but I fear it's going to be 'another one of those Wilson putters'. I.e. A decent putter but never really takes off cos it lacks the mainstream cache of the Scotty's, Pings, Odysseys and Rossas. I think it's a perception thing that's not helped by a massive lack of presence in the hands of the tour pro.

First thing that came to mind...

Looks like a fusion of the Rife IMO (the model name, not In My Opinion) and the Taylor Made Spiner Vicino.

Well said.

What are the selling points of this new putter? Any face technology? Easier alignment?

I thought the exact same thing when I saw that thing

 

Wilson is making the most beautiful irons. It seems they hired someone else for the putters. That thing is horrible!

Really? Most mallet putters look awful and I laugh at the price tags. This is one I'd consider trying. Different strokes, I guess.

That "different strokes" line hits the nail on the head in my opinion. Putting is so individualized... it's no wonder so many putter companies come and go. Some catch on, some don't- even top-tier OEMs like W/S. A lot of people panned Nike putters until the Method came out.
