Whereas some fine putters, such as the NC Delta II, do not respond well for those without fine putting skills, the Fat Shaft is designed to handle a variety of stroke irregularities. On the course, we had good luck with the CI-12. From off the green, this banger handled long putts well. The ball tracked nicely and distance gauging was good from far off the pin. Up close, however, the Wilson was a bit too energetic for some.
Softer balls improve the pace, but it is still lively and aggressive.
For those who putt greens in the faster third of the Stimp range, this may be a problem. On slow greens, the pace should be ideal. Whether anyone at GCR will end up using the Wilson full-time, is not decided yet. Feel is a primary consideration for all when choosing a personal putter and no one has been that fond of the CI-12 s feel, regardless of the fact that the putter has performed extremely well.
