Odyssey Putters

Homer’s epic Greek poem “The Odyssey” tells the story of hero Odysseus on his journey home to Ithaca after the fall of Troy. Odyssey putters send a golf ball on a journey to the hole and, whilst not, an epic event, the excitement and anticipation, the difference between success and failure, the triumphs and tribulations are no less real. In Homer’s poem, the outcome of the journey was decided on by the actions of ordinary men and women and the choices they made. Similarly, the putter a golfer chooses to use can influence the golf balls travels and how short or long that journey will be. Odyssey concentrates their energies on the game within the game, which is putting. All of Odyssey’s resources, innovations and technology are ploughed into bringing golfers the best choice of putters. Odyssey arranges their golf putters into series, which are then broken down into individual putters within that series: Odyssey White Hot XG Series: Featuring XG insert technology for added feel, distance control, feedback, forgiveness and produces a truer roll. The series features the hugely popular 2-ball putter, which assist ball alignment, as well as, the dual fanged Sabertooth and fanged No. 7 putters. The Black Series features a rear tungsten flange to improve clubhead stability, as well as, the entire range being precision milled for greater feel and accuracy. The Black-I Series putters are constructed in the same way as the Black Series, but, with the addition of a multi-layered Tour insert for added responsiveness and feel which appeals to top golfers. The Crimson Series features three great putters, the 660, 550 and 770, which includes the crimson stronomic insert that increases feedback, and are priced for all golfers to afford. The Divine Series is the series specifically created for lady golfers and was inspired by the great men’s putter designs, but, styled for how ladies play the game. The Marxman Series are available in mallet or blade styles, and include a dual purpose putter/chipper, which are aligned and weighted for perfect putting accuracy. Both, The White Hot Tour and Tour Authenticate series’ have been designed with the top professionals in mind. If you fancy using the putters that the pro’s use, and you have a suitably low handicap, these series’ are the crème de la crème of Odyssey golf putters and offer a customized feel and responsiveness that the top pro’s expect and demand. So, if you do not want your golf putting journey to be as long as Homer’s epic Odyssey, than a smart move would be to look seriously at Odyssey’s line of putters.

Odyssey Golf Putters- Black Series

admin — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 14:32:37 +0000

The Odyssey company offers extensive lines of putters, and this article will describe one of their product lines, the Odyssey Black Series of putters. The Odyssey Black Series consists of 3 putter head designs all of which take advantage of the design and technology features developed for this product line. One feature used on all three models is a tungsten flange at the back of the putter head. This flange adds weight to the rear of the putter head and creates a low CG (center of gravity) which is deep in the club face. This feature helps to lift the ball slightly upon impact and get it rolling quicker. Since the golf ball actually is slightly nestled down into the grass of the putting green, hitting the putt initially with an upward angle helps get the ball rolling. In fact there is a short video on the Odyssey Black Series web site that shows a comparison between these clubs and another allegedly typical putter. The Black Series putter got the ball rolling about 1 ½ inches before the other putter did. Working in conjunction with the placement of the CG is the loft of the putter face. Each of the putter heads in the line, which are simply called Black Series no. 1, no. 2, and no. 3, have a different loft angle of the putter face which is optimized to get the quickest roll possible for the given CG location of each particular putter head. The theory is that the sooner the ball stops skidding after impact and begins a true roll, the more accurate the putt will be, and this certainly makes sense. It should also be noted that the weighted flange helps to create a higher MOI as well, and this provides some forgiveness for putts not hit exactly on the “sweet spot” of the putter face. These putters are certainly top of the line and carry a retail price tag of $249 each. Black Series no. 1 putter has a rounded heel-toe weighted putter blade with a so called “crank-neck” hosel and a one shaft offset. The crank neck simply means that the offset is achieved by moving the shaft forward at 90 degree angles instead of a gradual bending of the hosel or shaft. The Black Series no. 2 putter has the same features but is more squared-off in appearance. Black Series model no. 3 is a mallet style putter with a double bend shaft that gives the same full-shaft offset. The putter head is made of 1025 carbon steel and features a mix-milled face design which indicates the proper impact area. In other words the face has two different mill patterns on it. There is also a urethane damping layer between the flange and the milled carbon steel head that dampens vibrations. The three traditional shaped heads of the Odyssey Back Series golf putters offer an interesting alternative for the serious golfer who prefers a traditional type of look and who can afford to spend $249 on his putter. They are certainly worth a look.

Odyssey White Hot XG Golf Putters

admin — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 19:17:11 +0000

The Odyssey White Hot XG golf putters product line is only one of several lines offered by the Odyssey company, but it is extensive in itself with 18 different models to choose from. These break down into two groups, the Core Models which account for 11 different putter types, and the Progressive Models, which consist of 7 types of putters with more modern shapes and design features. All of the Odyssey White Hot XG putters are based on an advanced putter face insert technology which is designed to give a softer feel. The company states that the design was inspired by newer multi-layer golf balls which also are softer. Two different materials are used in the putter face to achieve this effect. First there is what is called an Elastometer core material which gives the putter its softer feel. On top of this is a thin outer striking surface which is a harder material. The impact zone is textured and supposedly this provides added feel, and the textured zone also surrounds and indicates the correct impact area, or sweet spot. In addition to this mixed-material insert technology, the Odyssey White Hot XG line of putters was designed to get the CG (center of gravity) of the clubs low and to the back of the club head. Accomplishing this also increases the MOI of the club which will provide some level of forgiveness if putts are not struck squarely on the sweet spot. Odyssey White Hot XG Core Models The Core Models all use the technologies described above and are putters based on classic designs. That is, they are all variations of traditional blade or mallet putters. They are simply named Odyssey White Hot XG no. 1, no. 2, etc. up through no. 9. The no. 5 putter has a “CS” version, which means it is the same as the regular no. 5 but with a center shaft configuration. There is also a White Hot XG Rossi model. The Rossi model and the No. 1, no. 3, and no. 9 putters come in left-handed versions. In fact the no. 9 putter was used by lefty Phil Michelson to win the 2007 Players Championship. As mentioned, these clubs are takeoffs of traditional blade or mallet putters, but they come in different styles, with different amount of offsets, different shaft placements and other features. The most radical looking is putter no. 7, which is called a modified mallet putter with weighted wings in the back to help alignment of putts. All these putters come with an MSRP of $119 and can be purchased through a vast network of dealers or directly from the Odyssey web site. Pictures of each putter can be found on the Odyssey web site as well. Odyssey White Hot XG Progressive Models The Odyssey Progressive line of putters uses more modern designs, especially with regard to putt alignment aids, as in the 2 Ball putters, and with more modern putter head weight redistribution techniques. There are two versions of the White Hot XG Marxman putters. One is more of a mallet configuration, while the other is based on a blade design. The main visual features are the long alignment stripes. The putters essentially look like two ball putters, but they have long parallel stripes rather than additional golf balls to help line up the putt. Aligning putts properly is a huge problem for most golfers, and most of us have a tendency to be misaligned, leaving the chances of making putts up to subconscious corrections or perhaps just luck. Both of the Marxman putters have in-line weighting and full shaft offset, and both retail for $169. The remaining five putters in the Progressive line are 2 Ball putters, and these have become popular with PGA Tour pros. As is the case with the Marxman models, there are 2 Ball putters based on both mallet and blade designs. These clubs both have full shaft offset, and the mallet model comes in a left-handed version. There is also a mallet-type model with a center shaft and no offset. All three of these putters retail for $169. The newest putters in the White Hot XG lineup use a design called “Saturn Ring Technology”. Basically a semi-circular ring of metal is added to the rear of the club head. This approach will clearly redistribute weight and improve the MOI of the club. This means that even if the putt is not struck exactly on the sweet spot, the club will not twist as much and will thus provide forgiveness on off-center putts. There is a standard length and long-shafted version of this design available. Both putters have a half-shaft offset and both retail for $189. Since most recreational golfers are notorious for hitting putts off-center and for having poor alignment, the Progressive Models of the Odyssey White Hot XG golf putters product line would seem to offer solutions that might help players hole more putts, lower scores, and have more fun playing the game.
