Odyssey Japan has announced a slew of new putter models to be released in January and February of next year. This year we saw the release in Japan of a new prototype tour insert in their White Hot and Black iX lineups. In January Odyssey is adding one more putter to the iX line, a Black Series 2 Ball iX putter. This 2 Ball will have the black PVD finish and the tour prototype insert shared by the #1 #7 and #9 Black iX putters. The number 9 which is the same putter used by Ryo Ishikawa has been one of the best if not the best selling putter in Japan for 2009.
Odyssey is also releasing a new Black Series Tour Design milled lineup including #2 #4 #6 and #9. This NON insert, soft milled body with tungsten flange putter will provide the firmest feel and purest roll and control of any Odyssey putter. The new Tour Design models will also be released in January.
