The History of Odyssey Golf Putters at www.golfgeardirect.co.uk
1991
STRONOMIC
The Birth of the Insert. Odyssey develops the first mallet putters molded entirely from a lightweight, yet soft and resilient elastomer called “Stronomic.” The first line is available in two sizes – the larger Rossie I and the smaller Rossie II – and features an integral brass weight for heel-toe weighting and a slightly rearward Center of Gravity. Two years after its introduction, the Stronomic Putter earns a Tour win and quickly garners wide acceptance among pros.
1994
DUAL FORCE
Odyssey introduces Dual Force bronze putters with a black Stronomic insert and Dual Force stainless steel blade putters, the latter of which catapults Tour usage. The entire line is manufactured through a special patented process, in which engineers cast a new, softer urethane material into the cavity of the metal putter head. The urethane helps to redistribute weight to the toe and the heel, increase the MOI, and ensure soft feel at impact.

forgiving off-center hits. It quickly becomes the best-selling putter in the world.

D.A.R.T.
Based on the brain's ability to complete images that the eye doesn't initially see, D.A.R.T. Technology ensures that the face of the putter is in line with the target and promotes consistent contact with the center of the face for greater distance control.
