![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The Eleven putters come with a White Hot insert for a soft feel. There’s a multi-material TPU sole plate in the center of head to improve sound and feel, and also remove unwanted weight from the center of the head. The details: Forward weighting in the head pushes weight toward the face to more closely mimic the weight distribution of a blade putter. This unique head shape delivers the outstanding MOI properties that you would expect from a mallet. It combines Odyssey’s legendary White Hot insert, still the #1 insert on Tour, with their major-winning Stroke Lab shaft to improve the consistency in your stroke. The new Odyssey Eleven has completely reimagined performance in a mallet. Point, aim, shoot.”Īll of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. “If you can’t aim this putter, then you can’t aim anything at all,” on tester said. Our testers found it especially easy to aim, especially the Tour Lined and Triple Track versions. Our take: The Odyssey Eleven is a new age mallet design that has the forgiving shape and alignment features of a large putter head, but it performs with the precise control of a blade.

There was this sweet Scotty Cameron Pro Platinum Del Mar model that worked equally well for me but guess which putter was less expensive? The insert on the DFX series seems to be just as they advertise. I tried various putters from Odyssey, Never Compromise, Ping, Cleveland, and TaylorMade and ended up liking the 9900 best. ![]() The 9900 has a "toe down" angle of a little more than 45 degrees. Putters with more weight in the toe feel more stable and work better with my putting stroke. I seem to have a tendancy to push them to the right. However, after trying out various models, it soon became apparent that "face balanced" putters (including the Odyssey two-balls and the Taylormade Rossa Monza) are not for me. For that reason, I initally targeted mallet style putters, including the Odyssey DFX 1100. Over the last few years, I had seen Odyssey Rossie II putters in stores and liked the feel of them. I did quite a bit of research and tried out all kinds of putters before settling on this one. If my guess is correct and your vision is normal, you’ll immediately realize how well you can putt without all of the gimmicks and for around $100.Īfter playing with a Titleist Dead Center putter for about 11 years, I decided it was time to make a change. If you’re not addicted to one brand, or are not the marketing target success of the 2-3-4-5 ball mallet putter manufacturers, it would be well worth your time to try out this one. Now, I have complete confidence with everything less than 7 feet from the hole. I putted well before but began to panic on putts farther than 3-4 feet. And, in my play with it so far, I’ve yet to miss a hole by more than 5 feet. It is virtually impossible to not strike the ball squarely and perpendicular. One preference of this one over my old Odyssey putter is the perimeter weighting both sides of center, and the support flange (what I call it) to assist achieving a level ball-striking stroke every time. To emphasize my pleasure with this putter, in the last 10 rounds I have average 1.7 putts per hole. And because of my open-stanced, Jack Nicolas style, eyes 2 inches behind the ball style, I immediately realized that not only did I have the directional accuracy I was already used to, I gained greater control over judging distance and speed. Using the practice carpet at the store just to try it, I proceeded to sink 9 of 10 tries from about 8 feet back. But one day, while shopping and comparing Titanium drivers, I picked up an Odyssey DFX 9900 and the rest is history. In fact, I still have it and refuse to get rid of it. Back in 1996 I bought my first insert putter - the Odyssey Dual Force 440 - and loved it. ![]()
