W/S is such an underrated brand. I have a set of fitted Di7's, Harmonised wedges, and an Infinite "The Bean" double milled mallet putter. The putter is absolutely amazing and incredible value.
Have a 40 year old 8802. Still love the feel of a well stuck putt.
I still use my 1985 Walter Hagen, Ben Crenshaw putter. Looks like an 8802. I used to have a Wilson Arnold Palmer 8802 until some rat bastard stole it at a course in California.
Thanks for watching guys! Found my lost memory card in the printer today, so that Vlog will be out tomorrow. ( il explain the printer bit tomorrow 🤦)
Great video - might tempt me to dig out my '93 wilson blade from my old bag.
Where is the jacket from mate? Love it.
I have one and it doesn't have a line up mark, someone has messed with that one.
I have an old 8802 and I love it!! Practicing with it helps my putting and I will take it out to play. Great club!!
3 days in a row I think you’ve out done yourself Simon!!😂 but great video as always
Haha It’s just nice to be out the house 😂
Great video on a classic putter with history. Thank you. I have this putter, an older 8802 and one 8813. They look and play great. No intention of parting with them yet. The true value of a putter is subjective. To me, they are worth more than the eBay asking price because they are great functional collectibles.
I own one and I love it. Similar to blade irons in that the feedback is awesome. You can feel it when you miss hit it and you get that shiver when you pure it.
Phil M. Plays this style. Best for a player that has an arc in their stroke apposed straight back and straight through.
I have an 8802 my Dad used and bought way back in the day. Love it, I putt with it in the House. I quit carrying it and playing it on the course. I figured it would disappear at the course. Great video!
I use a ray cook austin 1 which is the same style. Absolutely love it. Ebay bargain about 15 years ago!
I picked up a Wilson 8813 for 10 bucks and it's one of my favorite putters in my collection of ~50.
Simon I love your channel and how honest you are with your content
I'm the mug who just sold mine for £118 in the ebay screenshot there!!!! I bought this putter when i feel out of love with my 2 ball to get back to basics. It felt amazing and i found it worked incredibly well on lag putts. I did struggle a bit on those 6fters that you really want to be holing. Great work Simon. Only sold it as it was staring at me doing nothing...
After burning through several more modern putters I wanted to get back into a blade. When this latest version of the 8802 was released I got one pretty much unseen. Took it to the course first chance I got. Didn't get to take it on the practice green, went right to the 1st tee. First putt was about a 10-12 footer that didn't do much. Bang! It hasn't left my bag since.
I have a yes Sophia putter, wouldn't change it for the world, they also seem to be going up in value.
My mate has an oddyssey napa style putter and he is great with it! I'm going to buy one to practice with.
Simon, I just picked one up today in a bulk buy with a tp mills 10, ODYSSEY dual force 660, and ben hogan sure out wedge for a total of $10! The 8802 is all original and is mint!
Magnificent!
Cleveland has a duplicate of that putter, huntington beach collection #2, I had 2, sold the newer one. Very soft feel, great for faster greens
I have a wilson harmonized m1 £25 brand new. It's so consistent I love it!
There is a reason Phil Mickleson uses this style of putter to this day. I have an original 8802 with leather grip, and as Simon says it is a great feel putter and does teach you to hit that sweet spot to get a perfect roll, and when you do Wow! Does it ever feel good. You know you’ve hit a good putt. It also gives you great distance control once mastered, a lot less three putts. The elephant in the room is that you need to practice with it to get good. Thanks for the review.
I’ve gone through so many putters (expensive and inexpensive) and none of them can beat my old Ping Anser 2 BeCu that I picked up for $25
I have one. Brand new. Never really bonded with it but I like the feel.
Got mine recently and it’s brilliant looks good mint condition and works! £99 .
I got a almost brand new set of wilson clubs from the rubbish dump, it had a 8813 putter, the bag is like a time capsule, old balls, tees etc
Have a 8877 Wilson Staff blade putter very similar to the 8802, wouldn't swap it for anything, makes you concentrate more on putting and feels beautiful coming off the face.
Loved this video, These retailed for $120 CAD a couple of years ago here in canada, should of jumped on it lol
I have a 60's 8802 and a 90's 8802, The Wilson Staff RM were my favorites, I still have the set my mom got me for my 16th birthday.
I have one of these that I bought new, its still in the bag. My favorite and still great shape. I think its time to update to the new milled 8802 line
Lovely putter and I bought one for a friends birthday years ago. Prefer my TPA XVIII though
Simon , I have one of those from before that one, called the The Original 8802 by Wilson with leather reminder grip.I used this type for many years of golf and also have a Walter Hagen model .
I got a napa style wilson tour special 2 and practiced with it a lot. Now I'm better with it than my anser style putter.
There's a lot to be said for truly learning how to play the game. Bladed putters and pure forged irons may not improve your score, but they will make you a better golfer.
I tested a lot of Putters last time I was at the golfshop, and that one was what I liked the most. ...But I use a Slazenger BullsEye Putter, so I was not so supriced that I liked the Wilson the best .
Nice classic Wilson putter I play Wilson staff golf ball.
The best putter I know uses a Wilson blade. Will check the model number when I see him Tuesday. I will check my Wilson blade tomorrow. Currently, I am using a blade putter from the 1930s that I used as a kid. Love it!
Got a couple of Cure putters with spare shaft, weight kit and It's So Big head cover if anyone's interested.
What kind? I've got a gradidge ... Have a look if you like th-cam.com/video/_TGZ4rEr8Jc/w-d-xo.html
Another rare putter with a price that seems to be going up is the Nike Method Mod90. Managed to pick one up 2 years ago for £60. Not very forgiving but looks bloody fantastic.
Been searching for one forever!!!!
I kept a bnew vintage 8802 with ben crenshaw signature with all the tags sticker intact .
LADS HES BACK! 🔥
hmm, i was sorting out clubs in my shed and i found one of these putters! , it might not stay in the shed long! ha
I have had a couple in my golf years, still own an ORIGINAL 8813 ! I can tell you who ever cut the line in the top of that putter cut it in the wrong place as I am seeing it on your video.
Hogan radial and TP Mills TPM1 Spalding putters are this style and can be picked up for a few quid
Nice putter, not gonna beat my zebra ram charity shop 50p deal though I love the thing😂
Its in my bag. Not a perfect example but good. I kept original grip, but the 8802 with a SuperStroke Traxion gt pistol 1.0 and a suitable counter core weight in the grip, is just peachy.
You should look for a ping Tess those are awesome!!!
Great video again mate, this is random but I have a Taylornade SLDR driver which I don’t use anymore and I’m in the market for a 3 wood, I’m just wondering if you fancy a swap for a 3 wood you have, it doesn’t matter to me which 3 wood it is, the driver is in really good condition
I love this putter. What if I changed original grip though?
I would try left hand below right rather than short and stabby if finding it hard to repeat the same putting stroke.
Lefty Phil uses an Odysey putter that looks exactly same - except the face has the white plastic insert instead of a metal milled face.
That putter looks so sleek! Not sure if I could game it though.
I’ve got an original 8802 with the leather grip if you are interested?
Had a bronty putter this style when starting out playing golf sure makes your putting better should never of sold it....we live an learn
The odyssey dual force 882 is similar 👍🏾⛳️
I play a Odyssey white hot #1 I know I need a mallet putter but cut it down to 33" and put a super stroke 5.0 on it it still doesn't work but Im not giving up on it 🤣
Got one of those LH. Lost the headcover though :(
I have a black version somewhere I think....gaming the Del Mar these days.
Picked a brand new one up for $150. Tried it out before I bought it for about an hour. I was making way more putts and lag putts were actually getting close to the hole. I can't really explain why since this is a really simple design and has no alignment markings. Hopefully this translates to sinking more putts on the course
I looked at one of these recently as its close to phil Mickelsons but prices have gone crazy
I knew a guy who had one in 1982 and the assistant pro at our local range offered him a set of second hand Hogan Apex irons in exchange and the guy agreed. The irons were worth £80 at the time and we all thought our friend had made the deal of the century but the pro then said "I'm taking it down to the Open because Jerry Pate is offering £250 for an original."
😂😂😂😂😂
David Graham in 1978 tried to buy mine in St. Andrews at the side of the 18th green after a practice round no deal !
...and now PM won the PGA with that style of putter ( even if his is a callaway)
I bought one new for $175. Sold it for $150 a few months later. Crazy that the value skyrocketed for a piece of Chinese stainless steel.
I bought a sub 70 007 Napa putter. Much better
I putted with a ladies 8813 for many years. I finally upgraded to, and still putt with, my BeCu Anser4. I see no reason to pay 300-400 for a putter.
Love this video. I have one of these! 1 thing that got me scratching my head though:
1. This is the first 8802 I’ve seen with an alignment mark. I’ve one from the early 90’s and one of the centenary release and neither has an alignment mark. Never seen any 8802 with it, but yours does?
It looks added on. The one i got of this series doesn't have a mark. Same with the new model they just released. There are variations that do have alignment marks like the 8813 or the 8882.
Hey Simon, based on this video I went hunting...tracked down the same WS 8802 (minus sight line) in MINT condition for $150CAD (approx. 88 pounds), but I want to play it so bad!!!
They weren't produced with a sight line someone put that on his and did it wrong sadly but he wouldn't know that 🤨
Lol I bought one I’m shit with it went back to my two ball just sitting in the shed.
If you haven’t tested one yet, try a bullseye putter. You won’t be disappointed
I putted for years with the MacGregor version of this like Nicklaus used until about 1967. Then I won a Ram Zebra and discovered the miracle that is the face-balanced putter and have never looked back.
Wilson staff 8813 best putter ever made
Be care ful with 8813 there were afew models the originals did not have that awful groove along the flange I know this cos I lookat all this stuff and have done for 58 years. The one Wilson made in the 70's to look out for is the Tour Special 1 nice putter😉
Wait, it was named after Arnold Palmer, and then when Palmer left Wilson, they renamed it "8802?" Was there a second choice for the name?
Back to my trusty John Letters Lee Trevino putter it is then.
I bought a very old bronty wee
smuggle from a charity shop for £2.
The bronty is a copy of the Wilson 8802, right down to the fluted shaft.
The grip is like many putter grips, from the 60s and 70's : rock hard! Just like the putters that you used to hire asa kid when you played crazy golf, or pitch and putt.
Unlike the modern soft spongy grips, it does not absorb vibrations, so all the feel from the head is transmitted to the hands.
The feel is on another level and the feedback is like a tuning fork.
I have a £400 Bettinardi mizuno answer style putter, which in comparison, feels like a brick on a stick!
Well done mate !! not only are you absolutely right, but I'm sure we all look at "quality" in a different way now...
I bought one of these recently for £35. So they are out there
Got that exact putter in pristine condition. I find it easy to put with. The feel of this putter is amazing. I think they only had 2 in the store when they came out. I think with the modern grip this putter is much easier to use. The original grip that they had on it was not great. Lag puts are easy with this putter, Great review! Thx.
Nice mate! If I find one in immaculate condition int he future definitely look to get another one for sure. Thanks mate.
Ben Chrenshaw
Crenshaw 😂
One right now about to go for $450 usd
Haha and I've got one from new. Not using it at moment.
Whoever put that aftermarket line groove on top really screwed up. The sweet spot on that putter face is closer to the heel from center!
Glad someone agrees !
I've got an odyssey PT82 and I'll never part with it
Hi Simon I’ve got one plus the Fg tour 100 irons. I paid £80 for it in November Ebay.
Yours has a line marker on it which must of been done by a previous owner and must lower the value?
If anyone is interested my irons are on EBay for £380 maybe I’ll hold one to them.
If you’re selling for £380 I’m very sure you’ll end up holding on to them ha.
@@msalvs I am in no rush to sell them the price of clubs at the moment is ridiculous. You obviously have never seen a set or used them to appreciate how good they are. Stick with your Slazenger sports direct specials ha. 🤫
Legit same putter my uncle has used for ever!
It’s great putter mate, old school one or this one?
He has a pile of the old school ones (he has I thing 15 of them.) he is my main golf partner we play a lot and when I am putting like garbage he will bring one and sneak it into my bag as a joke lol
@@SASGolf but I did buy him this one he has it on his wall since I got it customized for him with stamps exc
I have an old Mizuno TP putter that is as rare as rocking horse shit. It's worth more than it's original price.
Scotty Cameron's don't take a hit unless it's really beaten up
Dirty lipout counter 😂😂
This kinda putter is so hard to play with, for people like me not really good at putting, be warned. I also agree with you this kinda putter needs kinda pushing force to putt. Maybe it's because it is light. I still find for ordinary folks never beats the value of odyssey two balls putter.
I have the 8802 predating this 2014 variant. Not sure how old it is. Will never take it out of the bag, best putter I have ever had.
That poor putter! Who hacked the line on the top??
What people dont get about these is that the TOE CLOSES SLOWERRRRRRRRRRRR than modern putters.
So if you miss it left.....rant over.
Are expensive putters a result of inflation or a market that will pay virtually anything to 'buy a putting stroke?' "It has to be the putter because I practice once a week for at least 20 minutes."
This reviewer might need to study a bit of golfing history if he is unfamiliar with this iconic club...
It's so pure it feels like an unvaccinated person. 😁
£300 for a putter is cheap.....
£300, 36 putts is £8.33 per shot
Driver at £400, 14 shots is £28.57 per shot
Noone questions the driver price.... why pay less for a club you use more??
I think I’m talking to the guys that only want to spend £400 on their entire bag mate. But agree with you. 👍
