Odyssey Black Series i

[18StrokeGolf]

Any Experience With It?

Basically, I'm looking to replace my old, beat up RAM putter. Anyways, I settled on the Black Series i to replace it. I'l probably get a #1, but before I drive a good 3 hours to a store that has it in stock and a putting green, ;) I'd like to know what you guys think of it. How is the feel? Looks at address etc. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

EDIT: If you have any experience with the non-insert version (comparison), any input on that would be great. As for the feeling of the RAM, it's very dull, and clicky. I don't even know if what's in there you would call an insert. It's basically a piece of stainless steel, with a powdercoated feeling painted part.

I love mine...the classic looks with darker finish, the heavier weight (350g head), and the insert. It just feels right to me, but everyone's different.

I picked up an i-series #1 this summer and tried it out for a day on the course. 9 holes, and a good hour of practice green time. Love the look of them, and the feel was great. With that said, on the flip side, I'm comparing that to all the dozens of fully milled non insert putters I'm used to. Inside 10 feet I could live with it, but outside of that I just could not get distance control down what so ever. The feel of an insert on a 30 footer is no comparison to what you're used to off a full stainless steel putter. I was not really in the market for a new putter at the time, but I like to try new things every now and then. I gave it a chance, but my gamer held out again. I won't knock the Black i-series line, I think they're great...it's just not for me. If I'd been an insert guy from the beginning, I'd probably still have it now. Great putter, worth trying out, just not for everyone. Personal opinion, I think the original Black Series #1 is much better. But again, that's on a non insert bias.
