Putting legend Kenny Knox releases line of putters, wedges

If there ever were a golfer who knew the importance of good short-game clubs, it was Kenny Knox. The three-time PGA Tour event winner at one point held the record for the fewest number of putts in a tournament. So it’s safe to say he knows a thing or two about putters and wedges.

With those credentials, it’s no surprise that Knox would create his own line of putters and wedges.

Knox has a pair of putters for sale, each set at $269.99. The 18 and the 93 have what Knox calls a “4-3-2-1” loft. The lofts on the face decrease from 4 degrees at the top to 1 degree at the bottom. This pattern is promoted to minimize the effects of bad hand positioning by creating early roll.

With the design, the ball always come off the face with 2.5 degree loft, Knox said.

“It doesn’t drive into the ground like these other negative-loft putters,” Knox said. “It does have some loft, so the ball comes off the face softer, lands softer and then has a true roll and as a result. Distance control is more consistent.”

The differences Knox’s two putters are their offsets and finish. The 18 has a half-shaft offset and comes in chrome. The 93 has a full-shaft offset and comes in black chrome and brushed satin.

The name “18” is derived from one of Knox’s putting records, 18 putts for 18 holes, a record that he now shares with Corey Pavin. The name “93” comes from another one of Knox’s old putting records, 93 putts in a 72-hole tournament (the record has since been eclipsed by David Frost, who recorded 92 putts in an event). Another one of Knox’s former putting records, eight putts in nine holes, was overtaken by short-game instructor Stan Utley, who recorded only six putts in nine holes.

Knox also has three wedges for sale, each selling $119.99. There are 52-, 56- and 60-degree models, each weighing 303 grams.

“These were designed in conjunction with my designer and Jose Maria Olazabal,” Knox said. “What Seve taught us was to take the heel and the toe and ground those off, which raises that center of gravity. What that does, is when you hit the ball, it stays on the face longer.”

18 putts in 18 holes for pavin? Wait does that mean that a 300 dollar putter is useless? Since pavin uses a bullseye and which must mean it is the golfer not the equipment. So if a person spent 300 dollars on putting lessons they should be better off than having bought the new putter. However these clubs look great.

  Looks to me like Kenny Knox hooked up with Bob from Txema. Same wedges, same putter, different stamps. Deceptive?

    Technically EVERYBODY is copying off of Ping, and not just the Anser. Scotty for sure is not the only one in the industry to have ripped off ideas.

Yawn. If my grandmother came out with a line of wedges and “custom” putters that I’ve seen a million times before I wouldn’t be shocked.

I had the opportunity to try these wedges and putter two weeks ago. I had to pry them out of the hands of my fellow golf professionals as they were so popular. The are a great product.

What are the best golf socks? – GolfWRXers discuss

In our forums, not everything is about club selection and shaft options. A heated debate has bubbled up surrounding the best sock options players can wear on the course.

@CletePurcel asked:

“Just bought 2 new pairs of FootJoy shoes and trying to find out the most favorable socks to wear. I try to walk 9 holes two to three times a week and good socks are a must. Thanks in advance.

Members in the forum chimed in with their favorite footwear accessories. Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

Maroon_19: “I’ve only worn Kentwool socks for golf for the last 8 years – regardless of weather. I walk 90% of my rounds and play anywhere from 50-75 rounds a year (going to go up as I just retired). They only get worn for golf. As long as you care for them, they’ll care for you. Have had zero blisters with them. I just started using my second set of 8 pair for our Bandon trip earlier this month. The old ones will now go into the daily wear rotation. Still good after all these years.”
smoova: “I’ve had good luck with Swiftwick. Walk every round 12 months a year in Colorado.”
Hawkeye77: “FJ Pro ProDry is what I’m usually wearing just because I have more of them, but I’ve got some Smartwool socks I love for the wool aspect – they sell them as running socks. The thicker socks are better for certain shoes. I’ve gone merino/other wool in almost all my socks – athletic, “dress” and so forth – no more “Orlon”, lol, some golf socks are the exception.”
th6252: “Another vote for Kentwool, honorable mentions to Balega and Falke(thanks to someone on this forum for turning me onto the RU3).”
