Odyssey Golf – White Hot XG SRT 2-Ball Putter

Posted by Golf Local On June - 9 - 2010

The Odyssey White Hot XG SRT putters combine a multi-layer insert with Saturn Ring Technology to give you phenomenal performance with any golf ball. Inspired by high-performance golf ball technology, the White Hot XG insert takes two materials with different properties and combines them to take the level of feedback and feel to an all-new high. Saturn Ring Technology features a high-density alloy ring weighting system and a lightweight milled aluminum body that precisely place the putter’s center of gravity (CG) and dramatically increase the Moment of Inertia. And with the tour-proven 2-Ball alignment system, lining up putts is easier and more accurate.

Features Include:

• High-Density Alloy Saturn Ring Weighting system provides an optimum CG location for a truer roll and an enormous MOI to help keep the putter on-line during the stroke
• Lightweight Milled Aluminum Body allows for distribution of weight to the perimeter of the head for better stability
• Multi-layer insert combines a soft, highly resilient core for enhanced feel with a thin, firm cover infused with urethane for exceptional feedback
• 2-Ball alignment system makes lining up putts easier and more accurate
• Textured Impact Zone enhances feel and clearly defines the optimum impact area

Which Golf Ball Is Right For You?

Posted by Golf Local On May - 21 - 2010

There are a lot of golf balls on the market: Titleist, Callaway, Nike, Top Flite and the list goes on and on. But there are only a few that will suit your game. We have broke it down into two groups based on overall skill level:

  • Skilled/Competitve Player
  • Recreational or Weekend Golfer

Skilled/Competitve Player

Ideally the skilled/competitive players have a low handicap – maybe 10 or lower and tend to swing the club head 90 mph or faster. The ball should have lesser compression offering greater spin to suit these players. We recommend the Titleist Pro V1 (Pro V1x), Callaway HX Tour IX / Callaway HX Tour Black & Bridgestone B330.

Titleist Pro V1 (Pro V1x)

Key Features

– Golf Digest voted this ball as the best for price and performance
– Wave parting line resulting in improved ball flight and greater hitting distance
– 392 dimple design for greater consistency over long distances
– The V1x is a 4-piece golf ball that offers a 332 dimple design

Callaway HX TourCallaway HX Tour IX / Callaway HX Tour Black

Key Features

– HEX aerodynamic dimple patterns with greater stability due to less drag
– Tungsten-infused outer core helps in weith distribution, reduces driver spin and greater distance

Bridgestone B330

Key Features

– 330 dimple design for greater accuracy and consistent flight.
– Enhanced core design leads to greater speeds and larger distances.
– Ionomer inner layer and improved outer urethane covering gives greater spin and a softer feel than other Bridgestone golf balls

Recreational/Weekend Player

Ideally the recreational/weekend players have a higher handicap – maybe 15 or higher and tend to swing the club a lot less consistent compared to the competitive players. The ball should have a larger compression core offering greater distance and control for these players. We recommend the Titleist NXT , Bridgestone E5 & Nike One Vapor.

Titleist NXT

Key Features

– 3-piece construction with a fusablend cover for greater control and softer feel
– Increased dimple coverage design and staggered wave parting line

Bridgestone E5+ / E6+

Key Features

– 2-piece ball with an larger, gradational compression core for greater distances and spin
– 330 dimple design improves control

Nike One / Nike One Black

Key Features

– Crisp feel, penetrating trajectory, and better accuracy on distance shots
– Progressive density core which reduces spin and offers a better feel

Brockport was third (392) and Victor was fourth (398) as the top four teams qualified for the Section V meet Saturday at the Country Club of Mendon. Pittsford Mendon freshman Gavin Hall earned medalist honors with a six-under-par 66 and Chris Blyth carded a 71 for the Vikings.

Tom Kolb shot a 69 and was second for Victor, which finished one stroke ahead of fifth-place Rush-Henrietta for the final team sectional qualifying slot. Ted Leaf, who led the Warriors to their first county title in his 13 seasons as coach said it was fun and gratifying to be able to go out on top.
