If it requires a ball, chances are Wilson Sports manufactures it. I don’t like to drop names, but the list of Wilson athletes include Derrick Rose, Tom Brady, Roger Federer, Serena Williams, Kerri Walsh, and Dustin Pedroia, from baseball and softball to football and soccer. Even volleyball, who can forget Tom Hank’s best friend when he was Cast Away?
Of course Wilson Staff is the golf brand. The names are no less recognizable as the one and only Arnold Palmer. He managed to win a few tournaments with his famous Wilson 8802. Likewise Ben Crenshaw putted so well with it they called him Little Ben. Currently on the PGA Tour Ricky Barnes and Padraig Harrington wield Wilson irons. Padraig calls them the longest irons ever.
I’ve always loved the classic look of Wilson Irons. The FG Tour irons that the “sticks” play are not flashy or gaudy, but have a sleek sports-car look to them. And they are more reasonably priced than the premium clubs of the other big name brands like Titleist and Mizuno. If you aren’t a single digit handicap you should probably steer clear.
However, they have a nice selection of irons for the mid to high handicaps. One of their coolest inventions is the Fybrid Staff. They use technology from their baseball bats to build these clubs, putting graphite at the top of the shaft fused with steel towards the bottom. This gives you the feel of graphite in your hands, but the stability of iron at the clubface.
For a less aggressive game improving iron, take a look at the Staff Men’s Di11’s. They look a little more traditional, but the sweet spot is a whopping 36% larger than any other game improving iron that Wilson makes. This means a lot more distance for those off center hits, which sounds pretty good to me.

If you saw Ben Crenshaw sink that final 3-foot putt in the 1995 Masters, then you've seen an iconic Wilson 88 Series putter in action. Based on some of the most classic putter designs in golf, the current 88 Series consists of five models. The 8882 model is a ...
With one of the oldest names in golf, Wilson irons have used all manner of alpha-numeric combinations to designate their clubs over the years. The Wilson X-31 may sound a little more like rocket or aircraft designation than a golf club, but make no mistake; these clubs were ...
The Kirk Currie or "KC" putters from Wilson's Staff line offer the player the ability to customize their putter based on how the greens are playing that day. With weight portals in the shaft end cap and sole of the putter head -- called BalanceFit, by Wilson ...
"Smooth" is what Wilson named this new driver. Based on their literature, the name mostly has to do with its smooth, mostly understated styling. With a head size of 460cc, this driver compares with most others in the current market, but it doesn't have much of a "wow" ...
My man Padraig Harrington is Wilson's poster boy. The three-time Major Champion said (back in November of 2010) that these are Wilson's longest irons ever. The sweet spot is 36% larger than any other game-improvement iron. Wilson accomplishes this by removing weight from the perimeter of the face ...
Lower, wider, longer, straighter. This is where the emphasis was put in these irons to give you one of Wilson's most game -improving irons. The "lower" is the lower profile which moves the center of gravity down and makes the ball fly higher. "Wider" refers to ...
If you drew a line from point A (the biggest, most forgiving irons on the market) to point B (the sleekest, most workable irons), right in the middle is where you'd find these Wilson Staff Di9s.
I grabbed a set of these for the garage because they were inexpensive ...
You've arrived at the top of the food chain. If you are good enough to be browsing these sticks, then you really have no need for my goofball, silly remarks. Too bad -- you're stuck with me.
These clubs are sweeeeeeet! I wish I was good ...
These irons have a skeleton hidden inside! It's true. The coolest thing about these Ci9s is they are built with a hidden exoskeleton that repositions the mass towards the heel and the toe. This raises the irons' MOI while increasing the stability at impact while maintain the COG ...
I've found the missing link! No, not the link between man and apes, but the link between the big dog and your long irons. These Wilson Fybrids are a nice transition from your driver to your hybrids. These aren't quite hybrids, but they feel like them.
The ...
This wedge utilizes space age polymers! It's has an "elastomeric" coating in the back which improves feel and provides a softer impact across the entire face.
The wedge is also very sharp, literally. The grooves are the sharpest, deepest, and widest as USGA allows. You should ...
Yuck! This is an ugly putter. "How ugly is it?" you ask. This putter is soooo ugly, when I brought it home, my cat tried to bury it! (Heyoooooo!)
Okay, enough silliness. There is one cool thing about this putter: it's adjustable. The claim ...
I love me a blade putter, and this is a beautiful specimen. It's Wilson's Staff 8861. This is the classic blade design and is Wilson's celebration of the old 8802. The 8802 (for you non-golf nerds) dates back to 1964 and was made famous by Arnold Palmer and later Ben ...
When it comes to drivers we've seen a lot of different shapes and sizes. How about a spine?
Yes, a driver with a spine. This is the claim to fame of this Wilson Staff driver. The concept being that the spine, or ridge line, adds force to the face behind ...
I love it! When Tiger started playing, it definitely encouraged younger players to begin learning the game of golf -- but this is almost ridiculous, isn't it? But again... I love it!
Why not have the kids come out and learn the game and enjoy it with Mom and Dad? ...
Getting a lady friend into golf can be a difficult process, which many male golfers out there can attest to. The game has been dominated by men for so long that the acronym "Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden" is rumored to be the reason the game is even called "golf." ...
Practice makes... well it makes more practice for us, doesn't it? Golf is a lifetime game, and for many of us, practice doesn't make perfect. But it helps -- and this little item is supposed to help us even more. The Wilson Multi-Sport Cage Net with Ball return ...
The Wilson Sandy Andy Sand Wedge is a quality, inexpensive golf club that, while not boasting a huge variety of features or technological innovations, serves its purpose and is a good buy for golf novices.
The main difference you will notice with the Sandy Andy is the oversized club face, not ...
