The Record

Written from the sources it cites · machine-drafted for the Community to correct

The O-Works #1 Wide Putter arrives on record as a single release, dated 2017, and it stands as the whole of the line as we hold it. There is no earlier or later chapter to trace here, only the one entry: a wide-flange take on the compact heel-toe weighted blade, built around the Microhinge Face Insert and dressed in Odyssey's high contrast Versa alignment.

The maker's page describes a stainless steel Microhinge plate co-molded into a Thermoplastic Elastomer Feel Layer, and pairs that with red highlight lines meant to give golfers an additional aid for lining up to target. Callaway's Australian product page also lists this putter as a 2017 Hot List Gold Medal Winner, though that recognition comes to us through the maker's own materials rather than an independent editorial source.

Reviewer opinion on the 2017 release pulls in two directions on one point worth naming plainly: the putter shipped with a Superstroke grip, which golfshake.com described as midsize SuperStroke fitted and standard equipment, while Community sentiment on the grip itself was mixed, with at least one voice on record preferring a pistol grip with a ribbed reminder over the midsize Superstroke that came fitted. Golfshake's own verdict was warmer on the whole, calling the wide head confidence inspiring and writing that it "absolutely loved this putter and it just edged out the #1," adding that "it would be in the bag any day for me." Golfshake also described the look as shaped like a blade but deep, kind of hybrid look, finished in a black, white and red colour scheme.

Taken together, the record shows a single 2017 release that leaned on Microhinge insert technology and Versa alignment to chase a wider, more forgiving head shape, with the maker's own promotional language and outside reviewers largely in agreement on its roll and feel, differing mainly on the stock grip choice.
