Equipment
Odyssey’s Milled Collection putters comes to the U.S.
Odyssey’s new Milled Collection Putters were originally a Japan-only release, but like many successful equipment releases overseas, they’ve made the voyage to America.
The putters, which were released to PGA Tour players at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and have been available in Japan since September, are slightly different than Odyssey’s Works putters.
The biggest difference? The Milled Collection putters, as the name implies, are CNC milled. They also have adjustable weights in their soles.

Like the Works line, the Milled Collection putters use the company’s Fusion RX inserts — a White Hot insert covered with a Metal-X stainless steel mesh cover. But compared to the Works putters, the Milled Collection models are made with flatter top lines and more squared off head shapes.
Although six models are available internationally, Odyssey’s Milled Collection will be released in the U.S. on April 17 in four models — #2, #5, #6M and #9. They will sell for $349 each.
The putters come with three sets of adjustable weights, which make 340-, 350- and 360-gram head weights possible so that golfers can fine tune feel.

Coolest thing for sale in the GolfWRX Classifieds (5/13/24): Full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs
At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals that all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.
It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.
Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, there is a listing for a full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs.
From the seller: (@CaymanS): “During the year of recovery from leg surgery that never quite healed, I was bored. One thing led to another, and I ended up gradually building/acquiring the individual pieces to complete a set of “Tiger Slam” clubs. They are what Tiger played to win 4 consecutive majors, which nobody has ever done. This is not an exact replica of course, but something close that fit me to play a few times per year and experience what Tiger did. But my bad leg, 4 shoulder tears, and age prevents me from the ball-striking needed to enjoy these to their fullest. They may not be everyone’s cup of tea, especially since the driver and fairway shafts are regular flex and most players good enough to play these will need to change them, but it’s not a perfect world. I am not a historian on this stuff, but my research indicates these are the same models Tiger used, with slightly different specs to fit me.
Full set $1,600, or…
…a donation for a Pro Kids fundraiser, or…
Driver: $70
Fairway: $250
Irons: $1,100
Wedges: $100
Putter: $350″

I’m not sure if these differentiate from the standard Works collection enough to justify the $200 difference. “flatter toplines and more squared off head shapes”???? Oh and a weight kit??? Oh yeah and the part that you don’t use at impact is milled so that’s good. But I’m sure they’ll sell a crap ton.

If you cant put, you cant score. But if you cant drive you cant play.
I will buy a R15 TP instead, 🙂

Why would I get this if its the same price as a Scotty? Serious question because I’m in the market for a real putter.

inserts…yuck!

Agree with Scooter. You are making contact with the face and if it has an insert, then it doesn’t really matter if it is a milled putter. Same thing with the Cameron’s that have inserts, like the TeI3 line or the new Golo series with the alum wrap around face that is supposed to give it a soft, insert-like feel. Why put that on a milled putter?
And where are the people who complain about Cameron’s putters costing 350.00 when Odyssey is at the same price point on their milled putters (and so are others)? Thing is, buy a 350.00 Cameron and a 350.00 Odyssey and sell them both a year later and see which one was the better investment. Won’t even be close.

It looks like the significant advantage these have over the works is the the adjustable weights. The milling doesn’t seem to bring much to the table.

very similar to scotty odyssey is moving away from making putters for the masses and going to more high end stuff

Odyssey does offer $350+ putters like every manufacturer should, but also offer high quality putters for less than half that.

I always wondered what the benefit there was to a putter being milled if it has an insert. I mean, you’re not hitting on milled grooves, and the insert is going to have the biggest effect on feel, right? So doesn’t that cancel out the feel aspect? Anyone care to enlighten me?

Marketing my friend. All about finding a niche and filling it with product. They make products according to where they think the demand will be. Apparently they see an opportunity to compete with SC, etc. Sell fewer putters but at a higher gross margin.
