(Odyssey White Ice Putters for 2010)
A New Face Insert
Odyssey is known for making a great insert. Even for golfers that don;t like inserts…most likely Odyssey has made one that will feel good to you. But times are a changin’ in the golf equipment industry. And one of the big changes is in the golf ball industry. Because of the new changes to be made for grooves in wedges…golf ball manufacturers are going to be making the covers softer and softer to allow for better spin rates. This is great for the guys swinging the new wedges but not so great for the putter makers. And Odyssey seems to be one step ahead. They have made a new face insert for the White Ice Putter Series that will compensate for the changes in golf ball design…to allow for a more responsive feel.
A New Finish
The Odyssey White Ice series is sporting a new finish this year…it is a black nickel finish with a medium to heavy beadblast. The color is pretty rich but I am not a big fan of the beadblast. I would have preferred to see a lighter beadblast that does not produce such pits which can cause too much reflection coming off the surface of the putter. But the black and darker finishes are the in thing right now…so I get where they were going with the new finish.

I’m surprised how many of you guys are excited about these putters. It’s the same putter heads from the last generation with a slightly different face insert and some sparkle paint. With all the awesome putter companies MGS has promoted on this site, I would have thought these putters would have gotten harsher reviews. *shrug*
