Spotted: Jared Wolfe’s prototype Odyssey Toulon Chicago putters (knuckle necks!)

Published

on

We have seen a few “knuckle neck” putters on tour this year and it looks like Jared Wolfe is testing out two of them this week at the Korn Ferry’s Nationwide Children’s Championship. Both putters are Odyssey Toulon Chicago heads with a new neck installed to reduce the amount of toe hang, getting them a little closer to face balanced.

For the skilled people at Odyssey, I doubt this conversion was difficult as the Chicago head has a post that a double bend shaft goes over standard. The team probably bent the post to sit up at 90 degrees and then installed the steel tubing and L-neck portion. This style neck makes it easy to adjust the neck length in order to dial in the perfect amount of toe hang that the player desires. From address, it isn’t distracting and looks just like a traditional plumbers neck.

The first Chicago is finished in black and features a single sightline on the flange of the putter. This model also goes with the traditional Toulon Deep Diamond Mill face that should offer a softer feel and sound.

The silver-finished putter moves its site line to the topline of the putter, leaving the flange naked. This putter’s face has a very smooth milling pattern that should offer a firmer feel and more crisp sound on impact.

Both putters are using a Grasen Ultimate grip, with a green version on the black putter and the silver with a blue grip. These putters look to be shafted up with steel shafts and not the popular Odyssey Stroke Lab graphite-and-steel shaft.

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

on

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.”
