Exclusive Saturn Ring Technology Gives Best-Selling Putter Unprecedented Levels of Feel, Forgiveness and Performance
CARLSBAD, Calif. (May 22, 2006) – Odyssey(R), a brand of the Callaway Golf Company (NYSE:ELY), today announced the introduction of its new White Steel(R) 2-Ball SRT(TM) Putter. This breakthrough putter combines the Company’s exclusive Saturn Ring Technology – a radical new weight-shifting science that delivers industry-leading performance – with Odyssey’s revolutionary 2-Ball alignment technology for unprecedented forgiveness, feel and performance.
Saturn Ring Technology features a high-density alloy ring weighting system around a lightweight milled aluminum body, a combination that sets the center of gravity (CG) of the White Steel 2-Ball SRT Putter in the optimal position: deep and well back from the face. This CG position results in a massive moment of inertia that is 30 percent higher than the original 2-Ball Putter, which all but eliminates twisting during the stroke and through impact.
Like the entire highly-successful White Steel product line, the White Steel 2-Ball SRT Putter face features Dual Insert Technology – combining a modified White Hot(R) urethane insert with a milled stainless steel insert for the precision and accuracy of milled steel with the feel and distance control of urethane.
The legendary 2-Ball alignment system, which began the alignment putter craze and made the Odyssey 2-Ball Putter the best-selling putter line ever, has been updated with a satin finish and an enhanced 2-line alignment system flanking the now classic white alignment discs.
The new White Steel 2-Ball SRT Putter is face balanced, has a full-shaft offset and is offered in both right-and left-handed models in 33-, 34-, 35- and 36-inch lengths. It will be available at retail beginning June 1, 2006 with an MSRP of $239.
