Spotted: Odyssey Prototype Ai-One, Ai-One Milled putters

Odyssey had a plethora of new putters out at the Shriners Children’s Open this week. Both the Ai-One and Ai-One Milled models were well represented within these new offerings.

Odyssey Ai-One Milled Proto MC5.0

The MC5.0 looks like a head shape from the Eleven series with its long, tapering sides. This finish is also new for the Ai-One Milled and looks like a good alternative to the dark navy blue. There is a small slant neck on this shape for some added toe-hang and the forward weights on the sole should give it a more blade-like feel through the stroke.

Odyssey Ai-One Marksman Proto SS.0

The Marksman name is back in the Odyssey lineup after a short hiatus and the putter looks to be a blend with the #7. The top has a long Triple Track inspired site line but without the red, white, and blue color way on the golf ball. Just a single interchangeable weight in the sole that is pushed way back for adding stability to the putter.

Odyssey Ai-One Milled Proto MC2.0

The MC2.0 has a smooth rear section and very pronounced lines. It is like Odyssey took a hexagon and cut off the front third of it to make this putter. Odyssey’s famous triple dote site line is there and the gold sole plates and weights look classy on this mallet. A double bend shaft should make this small looking mallet pretty close to face-balanced.

Odyssey Ai-One Proto MC9.0

Even if the name on the sole says MC9.0 we will still call this putter the One Ball! The top has a single white ball with line for alignment and the shape is a little softer than the previous MC2.0 we just talked about. Twin movable weights are in the sole and pushed forward for a center of gravity that will be close to the face.

Odyssey Ai-One Milled Proto S6.o

I would love to know how this one was named as you would think C6.0 would be the better fit for a center shafted small mallet. There is a lot of mass behind the contact area on the center of the head. This could give the shaft a really solid feel when combined with the titanium Ai-One Milled face. The center shaft should make this putter face-balanced and great for the feel player.

Odyssey Ai-One Proto S2.1

There is a lot of older Odyssey influence in the look of this S2.1 putter. I can see some Sabertooth and Teron in the shaping of the outside of this putter. A single movable weight is far back in the head for higher MOI and added forgiveness on mishits. This larger mallet goes with a double bend shaft for a face-balanced feel and the traditional Ai-One urethane insert for a soft feel that doesn’t lose ball speed when struck outside of the center.

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
PING iE1
Taylor Made M6

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.”
