Phil’s Attention To Detail

Phil Mickelson has always had a weak spot for a classy lookin’ blade. And this new model is no different…this blade might just be a MYGOLFSPY all-time favorite…great lines.  Mickelson has been using a Odyssey PM (Phil Mickelson) prototype for years.  He usually keeps between 2-5 PM prototype putters around for different types of course conditions.

The Story Behind The Putter

Phil seems to have put a lot of trust in the guys at Callaway/Odyssey when it comes to his putters.  In the past his Odyssey PM Prototype Putters were specifically designed for him by long-time Odyssey Designer Ron Hettinger.  Now Phil seems to have even more input into the final design of the head.

For this most recent PM Prototype edition Phil actually went to the Callaway Test Center in Carlsbad, and with the help of Odyssey’s R&D team, he created exactly what he was looking for.  Not too shabby Philly boy!

The Putter Specs

For those wanting the specs, his PM prototypes in the past are around 330 grams, although he sometimes adjusts this ever so slightly from week to week. The lie angle is generally around 68 degrees and a loft of 3.5 degrees. Phil usually uses a 33 1/2″ putter, shorter then most guys on tour. But this length has always seemed to suit Phils style and stance.  This is one of the first Odyssey Prototypes to have an insert.
