2012 Odyssey Flip Face Putter
Here’s just one of the Odyssey Flip Face Putters for 2012.
What Odyssey Says:
These putters, known as Flip Face or FF, feature a face that literally flips using a simple tool. In one setting the ball will impact a firmer new metal insert known as Metal X and in the other a softer more traditional Odyssey White Ice insert. The technology gives the player the option to adjust the feel and performance of the putter to their liking or course conditions. The putters are slated to be in stores April, 13th with a street price of $349.99.
This is the Flip Face 5. This is a rounded mallet with a single-bend shaft and full-shaft offset.
Metal-X Insert:
Lightweight aluminum outer layer utilizes oval depressions to maximize the Coefficient of Friction, which helps quickly generate straighter topspin for reduced skidding and the truest roll in the game
Urethane inner layer provides soft feel and saves weight to optimize performance
White Ice Insert:
Multi-layer insert has been fine-tuned to enhance sound, responsiveness, resiliency and consistency
Inner core enhances feel and resiliency, leading to consistent distance control
Face surface has been roughened to enhance the sound at impact with softer golf balls and increase friction to promote forward roll
Satin Chrome Finish provides a premium, beautiful look that is a favorite on Tour. Lamkin 3GEN Pistol Grip is thin, smaller pistol shape appeals to better players. Made of Lamkin’s proprietary 3GEN material, which is their softest synthetic rubber compound and reduces vibration without dulling the feel of the putt. Allows golfers to keep forearms relaxed, apply very light grip pressure and minimize hand tension for smooth, consistent strokes.

In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups in our forum.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
- driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300. The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length. I am playing a Ventus Red 70. I play 70 grams in my fairways. I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee. When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time. So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck. The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
- JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”

Just know that 3/4 of the price goes to pay the pros who play them and advertising

Manufacturers seem committed to the idea that “High Price” suggests “Better Performance”. … Usually “not true” but that won’t stop us from testing to see what a club can do. …Nothing wrong with this but “who” can afford “new equipment” especially with an economy so dreadful that Golf Courses have to close??

For years I used a putter from the Caveman era of golf until I discovered this putter. On slow greens I prefer the metal insert, on fast greens it is the white insert. The putter is remarkably well balanced in either position. They go for nothing because apparently they were a market failure of some sort. I got mine for $57.

It might be expensive but you should try it out first. This putter is awesome. Don’t knock until you try it.

SO is there going to be a new rule? You can only adjust the face of your putter before the round?!?!?! This is getting out of hand.

They should have made more faces on it like a driver, wedge and maybe a 5 iron.

what a piece of dog xxxx. Just buy two putters for 1/2 the price each and you can “adjust to course conditions”. what do the rules say you do if your putter falls apart into 6 pieces during a round?? are you allowed to reassemble?

when my putting tempo or swing tempo for that matter is good enough to discern between the harder/softer face of a putter and be able to get use out of it is the day I would consider a doctor Moro (sp?) contraption.
