Wilson Infinite Bucktown Putter

Wilson describes the Bucktown as a fang mallet, which means two prongs extending back from the face rather than a solid body, and it is the outline that the phrase high-MOI usually brings to mind. Geometry is face balanced behind a double bend hosel. Bucktown is a Chicago neighbourhood, in keeping with the rest of the Infinite line. Two lengths, black, both hands.

Fangs work by pushing mass out to the back corners of the head, as far from the centre as the shape allows, which is the most efficient way to make a putter resist twisting on an off-centre strike. The look divides people completely. Some golfers find the two rails a genuine aid to lining up and others can't get past the appearance. There is no argument to win here. Set one behind a ball and you'll know within a second.
