Odyssey DFX 1100 Putter Review

Manufacturer: Odyssey Golf

Model: DFX 1100
Category: Putters

Additional Details:

Purchase: I recently traded in my Mizuno T.P. Mills putter at Wayland Golf Shops for an Odyssey DFX 1100. I was looking for a replacement that would improve my putting, because I was dissatisfied with my performance with the Mizuno. After demo-ing quite a variety of putters, I decided upon the DFX 1100, and I do not regret my decision one bit.

What I Like About The Odyssey DFX 1100: When I first played with the putter (approximately a month ago), I noticed an immediate change. As others who have reviewed this product have said, I too must reiterate the fact that I was giving myself 1-2 footers, rather than 3-5 footers for my second putts. I two-putted nearly every green on which I was 15+ feet from the cup, and I found a noticable improvement on my consistancy with 4-8 footers. The feel of the putter is profoundly softer than that of the Mizuno I previously owned, but it does not compromise accuracy or sweet spot size to accomplish this. The mallet-style head is not only attractive, but extremely helpful when lining up <10 footers. Finally, I must praise Odyssey Golf for the neat, yet audacious aesthetics of the club. The black-clad head and face invoke an aura of confidence and authority on and around the green. I have noticed significant improvement in my putting even in the short amount of time I have owned this club. This is merely a tribute to all the engineers and designers at Odyssey Golf.

What I Do Not Like About These Putters: My only complaint about the DFX 1100 is the fact that the retailer at which I purchased it did not carry DFX head covers, and so I settled for a White Hot 2-Ball head cover. I do hope that sometime I will be able to purchase a DFX head cover that better fits the shape and aesthetics of the actual product.

DFX 1100 Quality: The performance of this putter is undoubtebly due to the quality of the construction and development.

Review & Rating Summary: My advice to those in the market for a new putter is this: if you would like to improve both your performance and your confidence in putting, I would recommend none other than the Odyssey DFX 1100, or whichever putter in the DFX line best suits your taste, (assuming that you are financially willing/able).
