Odyssey White Hot Pro putter

After claiming 30 wins worldwide in 2012, Odyssey has taken its wildly popular White Hot insert and engineered it for better overall performance and consistencyt in its new line of White Hot Pro putters.

Critical to the insert's enhanced consistency, a new laser milling cutting process allows Odyssey to achieve extremely tight tolerances and to better match insert shapes to the various White Hot Pro head shapes, resulting in better performing products for golfers.

A full line of White Hot Pro putter styles will be available in Tour proven and Tour inspired head shapes, including the #1, #7, #5, #2 Center Shaft, #9, 2-Ball, D.A.R.T. and the Rossie.

The team at Odyssey has also developed new head shapes for 2013, including a high MOI (Moment of Inertia) mallet with a modified High Definition alignment system - called V-Line - and a smaller version of the popular D.A.R.T. Putter, called D.A.R.T. Mini.

The White Hot Pro D.A.R.T. and D.A.R.T Mini models, along with Odyssey best-selling model, the 2-Ball, feature an adjustable weighting system that allows golfers to change the headweight of the standard-length putter from 350 grams to 360 or 370 grams. The weights and a wrench are featured in the White Hot Pro headcover for these models.

In conjunction with the new line of putters, Odyssey is introducing a new retail fitting system called EyeFit that helps golfers select a proper head shape based on their general setup to the ball. EyeFit is based on the premise that a golfer's setup dictates his putting stroke shape. The mirror-based system allows golfer to see where their eyes set up to the ball to best determine what type of putter is recommended. The closer a golfer is to the ball (eyes over the ball), the more likely he will have a straight back straight through stroke. The farther away a golfer is from the ball, the more likely he will have an arced stroke. Each White Hot Pro putter will have a dash system on the putter sole that correlates to the fitting system. Odyssey's new Versa line of putters also features the EyeFit fitting system.

White Hot Pro putters feature a Gun Metal PVD finish that creates an industrial, non-glare look that is preferred by many golfers.

The White Hot Pro line of putters will be available in March with a suggested retail price starting at $129.99 (US).
