Odyssey Backstryke


$249.00 Released April, 2010

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Won't find many putters on the market that are easier to align than this one. The shaft position enables you to swing the club back and forth freely. The shaft won't get in the way of your line of sight.

The Cons:May be too big for some people.

Odyssey's Backstryke putters are higher-end, competitive models available in three different styles. It should be noted that the weight, loft angles and shaft lengths are identical for each model, and so the actual shape of each head type is mainly to appeal to different visual preferences for aiming.

Where to Buy

All three have carefully balanced heads that allow for smooth and consistent strokes. They use "forward press stabilization", which basically means that the shaft is positioned to encourage proper hand position, in turn increasing the potential for top spin and consistent control throughout the stroke. The face of the club is offset from the shaft by a large margin, making the face surface fully visible for easier aiming. Each club has a white face insert with a more solid feel than other Odyssey putters, and a rough surface that can help increase top spin.
