Odyssey

Why we like it

Blade putters that stretch the boundaries of off-centre-hit forgiveness seem more prevalent these days than supermarket price rises. Odyssey’s team found a method to keep the centre speed and raise it for mis-hits. Although that probably sounds like alchemy, for Odyssey it’s about machine learning and artificial intelligence. The odd topology on the back of these faces creates “microdeflections” for consistent roll. The urethane face coating makes all that tech feel like the company’s most favoured White Hot insert.

• Soft aluminium face insert is coated with the same urethane used for the company’s famous White Hot insert.
• Four models (#1, #2, Double Wide DB, Double Wide CH); head weight: 360 grams; lengths: 33-35 inches; loft: 3 degrees
