Exotic Metals Mean Exotic Prices With Odyssey's New Damascus Milled Putters

Odyssey knows a thing or two about putters, which is why, as a putter-focused company, they offer an incredibly large lineup of putters that range from the entry-level DFX line priced at $150 to tech-packed putters that go for more than triple that.

Now, as a way to once again showcase their ability to craft tech-forward putters that also exhibit an expert level of craftsmanship, they're introducing the Limited Edition Damascus Milled #7, which comes in both a double bend and CH (Crank Hosel) plumbers neck.

What Makes Damascus Special

Damascus Steel is made through the process of folding and forging two different types of steel into one solid state, then rolling it out to extreme lengths. Once cut in profile, the final steel bar reveals the folded "grain". For Odyssey, the steel is then cut into raw inserts and then milled to final spec with the back having the same engineered contours as other AI inserts to better control ball speeds.

What makes this especially cool is that because the inserts are cut from a single stretch bar, each putter is unique.

Additional Features

Beyond the Damascus insert, the putters are 100% milled to extremely tight specs and finished in a blasted silver.

Now is also a good time to mention that the bottom of the putter also has a Damascus sole plate, and to further enhance feel, they will come with a rubber tour pistol grip co-developed with Golf Pride.
