Batavia based Tour Edge Golf has announced the latest member of it’s new equipment line for 2020.

After the release of the EXS 220 Exotics fairway metals, now comes what every golfer needs at least once in a while, a wing man.

The new Tour Edge Putter is called the Wingman, and it’s an M.O.I. mini-mallet design, that keeps the face square to the swing path for a more purely balanced true roll on your putts. The weighted wings of Wingman are the key to this new putter design. The multi-material putter has a high resistance to twisting.

Wingman’s Lock-On Alignment Technology, allows golfers to be able to sink more putts, and still be accurate on ones that don’t go in the hole.

Wingman has interchangeable weights that come in a kit with both 8-gram and 15-gram weights, so golfers can set the putter to their preferred feel, in the heel and the toe. Allowing for the perfect feel on both faster and slower greens.

The Wingman comes with a head weight of 355 grams, with 3-gram weights. When the weight kit is used, there can be 9 different weight combinations are possible, and six different headweights can be created. The maximum head weight for the Wingman is 379 grams.

More heel weight helps those golfers who lag putts, and leave the toe open during their stroke. Golfers who pull putts will benefit with more toe weight.

Lock-On Contrast Alignment is a contrast alignment that allows for the lie angle to be perfectly square at address, helping with alignment.

Wingman has Three Hosel Options. They are Wingman-01 Toe Hang, Wingman-02 Face-Balanced, and Wingman-03 Center Shafted.

The new face of Wingman is complete with a Micro-Groove Face, that gives a pure-feel at contact, and with horizontal MicroGrooves that improve the roll by reducing skidding. The over sized Wingman grip is a Sink Fit Straight grip from Lamkin that has a new exclusive Fingerprint Technology. Sink Fit Straight allows for lighter grip pressure and a more relaxing putting stroke.

Loft and Lies are 3 Degrees loft, 71 Degrees Lie, and comes in lengths of 33-34-35 inches. Currently Wingman is available in right handed styles only. More details at Touredge.com.

DON’T FORGET TO SEE THE WINGMAN at the Tour Edge Booth at the Tinley Park Golf Show Feb. 7-8-9 in the Tinley Park Convention Center. Doors open at Noon on Friday and admission is only $5.00 dollars on Friday. $10.00 on the weekends. You can purchase tickets now at Tinleyparkconventioncenter.net.
