Odyssey Golf adds #7 to Triple Track line

Golfers are always looking to improve their putting, and as one of the leaders in the industry, Odyssey is doing its best to provide as many options as possible to golfers looking to align and putt better. Enter the Odyssey Triple Track #7.

Unlike drivers, putters don’t offer the same amount of head and center of gravity adjustability to fine-tune launch conditions—although there is of course still lie and loft fitting. The way a golfer stands over a putt to align is a completely unique part of the game, which is why putter companies offer so many options for head shape and alignment. One of the most popular shapes in the Odyssey line over the last decade has been the #7 design—noted for its sharp “fang” shape to boost MOI, and now it is available with Triple Track Alignment technology

Triple Track technology

As we covered in the original Triple Track putter, launch piece (2020 Odyssey Triple Track & Stroke Lab Black putters) Triple Track lines use your eye’s Vernier Acuity—“the ability to discern a misalignment among two line segments or gratings”—to help make sure you aligned properly when putting. The human eye is extremely sensitive to parallel lines, and designers are using this sensitivity to the golfer’s advantage.

The #7 is one of Odyssey’s most popular shapes and this new putter will capitalize on both the fang alignment and Tripple Track, to help golfers sink more putts.

The whole technology story

Like all Stroke Lab putters, the new #7 will have the Stroke Lab multi-material shaft. The shaft design combines a graphite body with a steel tip, which in total weighs just 75 grams. With the majority of weight concentrated in the tip, this makes the shaft a full 40 grams lighter compared to a standard steel Odyssey putter shaft. This weight savings allows engineers to place more mass below the hands using a counterweight to help improve stroke consistency.

According to Odyssey, the addition of their new shaft and weight distribution results in “improvements in the consistency of backswing time, face angle at impact, ball speed, and ball direction,” while “feel for the putter head becomes more acute.” What this means is—you have the opportunity to sink more putts.

The new #7 putter is fit with the popular Microhinge Star insert to increase the sound for better player feedback. The Microhinge Star insert improves the correlation between the sound and expected distance a player will hit the ball—firmer means farther. As it has been commonly discussed with equipment, sound = feel.

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.

In our forums, one user has offered up a prompt for the true sickos, inviting fellow forum members to share every set of irons they’ve ever owned. As to be expected, this is a lengthy forum topic.

@Lamosteve began:

Can you name every set of irons you’ve owned? Here’s mine

Spalding Dots
Spalding Eclipse
Ram Lazer FX
Lynx Parallax
Mizuno EZ Comp
Ben Hogans
Cleveland CG Red
Taylor Made R9s
PING i20

Our members in the forum have been offering up their own collections. Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

macedan: “Started with a hand-me-down Golden Bear set from my brother when I was in high school, never really played more than once a year or got into the game until about summer of 2017. First purchased a set of Cleveland CG4’s (I actually really miss this set sometimes, soft & not terribly large for a GI iron), moved into Nike Vapor Fly’s by the end of the year. Those lasted until spring of 18 when I decided I wanted new, so I traded them in for TM Rbladez. Honestly, although I liked the Rbladez, poor decision on my part, I think this was really about the only time so far that after a week or two I was kicking myself for not staying with what I had. Rbladez stayed with me until late last summer when I switched to P790’s and (knock on wood) I am hoping this will be my longest lasting set.”
JimmyC59: “MacGregor Jack Nicklaus Triple Crown. Palmer The Standard. Still play these.”
