PutterZone – Best Putter Reviews
In advance of its 50th anniversary this year, PING recently launched its iWi putters featuring classic PING designs with a twist—customizable weighting technology. The PING iWi D66 putter comes with a pair of 12-gram steel weights inserted into ports in the heel and toe. An optional weight kit includes pairs of 20-gram and 28-gram tungsten weights that can be mixed and matched to suit personal preference. The iWi putters also feature a stainless-steel face insert with a soft elastomer backing.
Sweet
The D66 is a beautiful design, beefy without being bulky. The iWi series’ customizable weighting technology can make a substantial difference in the behavior of the putter as it relates to your personal mechanics. The face insert is tight and firm, offering vivid feedback.
Bittersweet
The optional weight kit is rather pricey at $69, but the ability to fine-tune the putter’s weighting can result in lower scores.
Who’s It For?
Golfers with an arcing stroke who want to tinker with head weight and weight distribution.

The PING iWi D66 merges high technology with rock-solid looks and performance, resulting in excellent playability.
