Where it wins
- Feel88
- Sound86
- Looks86
Watch
Rated highest for feel and sound; its softest dimension is forgiveness.
Your stroke arcs and feel matters more to you than stability.
You want to tune head weight, or you need help when you miss the middle.
Pros
- The original White Hot insert carried over untouched, still the softest strike Odyssey sells
- Forty-one degrees of toe hang for a genuinely arcing stroke
- A simpler, cleaner sole now the adjustable weights are gone
- Around £209 in steel, the cheapest way into a classic Odyssey shape
Cons
- Losing the sole weights removes the only way to tune head weight
- No perimeter tech at all, so this stays among the least stable heads Odyssey sells
By dimension
Forgiveness
SolidOdyssey dropped the sole weights for this run, so there is even less to help a strike off the toe.
Distance
ExcellentRoll off the two-part urethane is unchanged and still among the most repeatable Odyssey offers.
Workability
StrongThe same crank neck and forty-one degrees of toe hang, cut for a stroke with real arc.
Feel
ExcellentUnchanged and still the reason to buy one: a deep, quiet strike no firmer insert matches.
Sound
ExcellentLow and contained, and the note holds steady across different balls, which is rare for an insert.
Looks at address
ExcellentSilver PVD and fine milling on a plain heel-toe head, with a cleaner sole now the weights are gone.
