2012 Odyssey Flip Face Putter
Here’s just one of the Odyssey Flip Face Putters for 2012.
What Odyssey Says:
These putters, known as Flip Face or FF, feature a face that literally flips using a simple tool. In one setting the ball will impact a firmer new metal insert known as Metal X and in the other a softer more traditional Odyssey White Ice insert. The technology gives the player the option to adjust the feel and performance of the putter to their liking or course conditions. The putters are slated to be in stores April, 13th with a street price of $349.99.
This is the Flip Face 5. This is a rounded mallet with a single-bend shaft and full-shaft offset.
Metal-X Insert:
Lightweight aluminum outer layer utilizes oval depressions to maximize the Coefficient of Friction, which helps quickly generate straighter topspin for reduced skidding and the truest roll in the game
Urethane inner layer provides soft feel and saves weight to optimize performance
White Ice Insert:
Multi-layer insert has been fine-tuned to enhance sound, responsiveness, resiliency and consistency
Inner core enhances feel and resiliency, leading to consistent distance control
Face surface has been roughened to enhance the sound at impact with softer golf balls and increase friction to promote forward roll
Satin Chrome Finish provides a premium, beautiful look that is a favorite on Tour. Lamkin 3GEN Pistol Grip is thin, smaller pistol shape appeals to better players. Made of Lamkin’s proprietary 3GEN material, which is their softest synthetic rubber compound and reduces vibration without dulling the feel of the putt. Allows golfers to keep forearms relaxed, apply very light grip pressure and minimize hand tension for smooth, consistent strokes.

What is the best driver in 2025? At GolfWRX, we take great pride in our online community and the cumulative knowledge and experience of our members. When it comes to the best driver of 2025, we want to know what our forum faithful think.
Since our founding in 2005, the bedrock of GolfWRX.com has been the community of passionate and knowledgeable golfers in our forums, and we put endless trust in the opinions of our GolfWRX members — the most knowledgeable community of golfers on the internet. No other group of golfers in the world tests golf clubs as frequently or as extensively, nor is armed with such in-depth information about the latest technology.
Below are the results of GolfWRX member voting for the 2025 best driver, along with the vote percentage for each club.
Best driver of 2025: The top 5
5. Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond: 6.02%
Callaway’s pitch: “For golfers looking for a fast, forgiving, yet workable driver, the Elyte Triple Diamond features a tour-inspired shape and is the preferred model by most Callaway tour players.”
You can read what other golfers are saying about the driver in the GolfWRX forums, and see our launch piece here. Shop the Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond here.
4. Ping G440 Max: 6.86%
Ping’s pitch: “The most forgiving G440 model, MAX has a hotter face to generate speed and distance, and a lighter overall system weight with a longer shaft (46″) for faster clubhead speed, higher launch and longer carries. The Free Hosel and Carbonfly Wrap crown save weight to create our lowest CG ever and increase forgiveness while contributing to a more muted, pleasing sound.”

3. Ping G440 LST: 9.53%
Ping’s pitch: “LST is an especially good fit for faster swings, offering less spin and more control with a penetrating trajectory. A hotter face, lighter overall system weight and longer shaft (46″) deliver more speed and distance while maintaining tight dispersion.”
@phizzy30: “Not a fan of Ping drivers in general, but 440 LST takes the cake. It’s super forgiving across the face for a low spin head, looks and sounds good and the ability to make it play neutral or slightly fade biased through the hosel settings is very appealing.”

2. Titleist GT3: 16.55%
Titleist’s pitch: “The GT3 Driver offers Titleist’s boldest combination of power and personalization through adjustable performance. Dial in the CG Track to your frequent contact location to make your biggest drives even bigger while taking total control over flight and shaping.”
@mrmikeac: “I’ve been Anti-Titleist for years and years and years (outside of Vokey, of course). With that being said, HOLY BEGEEZUS the GT3 driver is an absolute NUCLEAR MONSTER! This thing blew my G430 10K Max out of the water in every single category. Forgiveness is the biggest thing that stands out of me, the 3 model has always been one of the less forgiving models in the past but this GT3 can take bad shot after bad shot and still end up in the fairway, I think a ton of that has to do with the adjustability, it’s actually effective. Feel and sound is perfect, that solid crack is so addicting to hear and when you hit it out the screws this thing can absolutely bomb it. Titleist, I’m sorry for doubting you. You have converted me.”

1. Titleist GT2: 22.91%
Titleist’s pitch: “Delivering impressive distance from any impact point, the Titleist GT2 Driver extracts maximum performance through a forgiving design. Get the stability and added confidence of a high-MOI driver without sacrificing speed.”
@DTorres: “The Titleist GT2 has proven to be the best driver of the year. Packaged in a classic profile, GT2 perfectly balances performance and forgiveness while consistently being a high performer across all categories.”

Manufacturers seem committed to the idea that “High Price” suggests “Better Performance”. … Usually “not true” but that won’t stop us from testing to see what a club can do. …Nothing wrong with this but “who” can afford “new equipment” especially with an economy so dreadful that Golf Courses have to close??

For years I used a putter from the Caveman era of golf until I discovered this putter. On slow greens I prefer the metal insert, on fast greens it is the white insert. The putter is remarkably well balanced in either position. They go for nothing because apparently they were a market failure of some sort. I got mine for $57.

It might be expensive but you should try it out first. This putter is awesome. Don’t knock until you try it.

SO is there going to be a new rule? You can only adjust the face of your putter before the round?!?!?! This is getting out of hand.

They should have made more faces on it like a driver, wedge and maybe a 5 iron.

what a piece of dog xxxx. Just buy two putters for 1/2 the price each and you can “adjust to course conditions”. what do the rules say you do if your putter falls apart into 6 pieces during a round?? are you allowed to reassemble?

LOL. This is garbage! I cant do anything but laugh at this thing. Odyssey putters continue to go down hill.

when my putting tempo or swing tempo for that matter is good enough to discern between the harder/softer face of a putter and be able to get use out of it is the day I would consider a doctor Moro (sp?) contraption.
