Great, thanks! In the historical aspect, this evolution is very interesting for me as a researcher not only for history but also for various technological devices of our time. It was very interesting for me to look at this infographic. Recently, I have been reading a lot of various essays on historical topics on the site https://samplius.com/free-essay-examples/history/ The history of various aspects of human life interested me in early childhood and I have kept this love of history to this day since.

This was the original Stronomic then the came out with Rossie 1 and Rossie II models in the stronomic before they came out with the dual force models and stronomic insert. I used the original for about a year. It was a very unique feel but a good putter all in all.

Honestly, it sat really good. It was really easy to line up. Wouldn’t call it pretty but it was darn square.

Here is my gamer, purchased new in 1997 after Faldo used one to win the 1996 Masters.  Put a stupid grip on it at some point and stopped using it. It sat in a bag unused for the last 15 years or so as I cycled through all the usual suspects (2-ball, Cameron, Byron, Nike, Edel) until I pulled it out earlier this summer in pure frustration. Has been my gamer ever since. 

The feel of a ProV1 as it comes off the face is like butter.

Nice! I still have mine too from back in then. I don't use it anymore but I can't part with it. I also have a Black Series two-ball blade that I love. Currently gaming a Toulon Columbus.

It's a long list.  I was around for most of the history.  What do you want to know?

 I know this is a very old thread but I saw it as I was searching for some info on odyssey putters so I thought I would give this a try, I have a older odyssey black series tour 1 w putter and I am trying to find out the tip size for a re-shaft, pretty sure it is a double bend but you can set me straight there if I am wrong on that. Hope this finds it's way to you, have a great day

There was a limited edition fully milled exo.  Does anyone know how many were made?  How rare are they?

Just chiming in since thread was revived- have a Metal X Milled 6 that Austie made for me a few years ago still in the bag. People tend to associate Odyssey mostly with inserts, yet I contend that protype and Metal X Milled are two of the best milled putters ever on readily available retail market, just didn’t gain a lot of traction due to price point at time.

I think their RSX milled line is the best of them.

Never personally played that series on course, only rolled one a friend owned on a practice green, however- definitely in agreement that was a great piece of equipment.
