Tour Edge Exotics Wingman 801/803 Putter Review
Is It Important To Pick The Correct Wingman?
Picking the right putter is much like picking a wingman.
In order to have success, you need the right one. Since the putter is the most important and most used club in your bag, it is important to pick the correct one.
The Tour Edge Exotics Wingman 801/803 Putter offers numerous features that can roll the ball in the hole for you, but which one?
Let’s talk about picking the correct Tour Edge Exotics Wingman.
I played both putters on the course over multiple rounds and then rolled them head to head on the iGolfReviews putting green.
This is my definitive Tour Edge Exotics Wingman 801/803 Putter Review.
Wingman 800 Series
The Tour Edge Exotics Wingman 801/803 Putter are part of the 2025 Wingman 800 series.
There are 3 head shapes, 3 different hosels which woven together make a total of 6 models.
They all are done in a PVD dark blue color that looks really nice with the combination of white alignment aid behind the ball.
The face is milled with Ws which create an incredibly soft feel.
They each have a Golf Pride Tour Only Blue Star Grip.
The cutout section of each putter keeps the mass centered while still having max MOI.
Since these putters are only $169, they are one of the “best bang for the buck” on the green.

VIBRCOR Feel In A Putter
The Tour Edge Exotics Wingman 801/803 Putter are crafted of 304 stainless steel, milled face with VIBRCOR soft TPU slotted behind the face for one of the softest putters you can roll.
Every one that touched this putter commented how soft the ball felt off the face.
The combination of milling and vibration dampening means you get one soft roll, no matter where you hit it on the face.
You won’t find a softer putter out there, especially a milled one.
Max MOI 801 vs 803
The different between the Tour Edge Exotics Wingman 801/803 putter is the headshape.
They are both compact heads, but have Max MOI for tons of forgiveness.
These both have short slant neck hosels, 365 gram weight, milled face, same grip, length, headcover, etc; the only difference is the “spider” mallet or “fangs” mallet.
I did some head to head testing to see which one rolled better for me and the results are below.
Yes, choosing the right look behind the ball can impact how you swing the putter.
If you feel like you have to manipulate the face to get the ball into the hole rather than letting the putter work can have a negative impact on your putting.
