The Record
Written from the sources it cites · machine-drafted for the Community to correctThe White Hot Pro line arrived in 2013 as a single release year on our record, but it came in five distinct forms all at once: the standard White Hot Pro, a Progressive version, a Mid/Long version, and a second wave of Progressive and Mid/Long editions carrying the shortened WHP name. That spread suggests Odyssey treated the launch less as one putter and more as a full family, rolling out blade and mallet shapes together rather than staggering them across seasons.
Golfshake reported the White Hot Pro came finished in Gun Metal PVD, and that it was already in play on the PGA, European, and Champions Tours by its March 1st 2013 availability date, per the same outlet. GolfWRX and hagginoaks.com both credit Austie Rollinson as the putter's designer, with hagginoaks.com naming him Principal Designer at Odyssey Golf. The fitting angle was a notable thread in the coverage: hagginoaks.com described a dash system on the sole tied to the EyeFit fitting system, while thehackersparadise.com detailed painted sole lines indicating face balanced, slight toe hang, moderate toe hang, or advanced toe hang, a more granular account of the same idea.
Pricing across the sub-lines varied by market and outlet. Mygolfway.com listed the Mid/Long at €229 EUR and the Progressive at €199 EUR, while golfshake.com had the Mid/Long at £159 GBP and the Progressive at £149 GBP, figures that sit alongside each other in our record as separate market reports rather than a single confirmed number.
On feel, the reception was warm and specific. One community note called the insert soft, consistent in sound and performance, and true to the classic Odyssey character, and thehackersparadise.com's review echoed that same read, describing the insert as unmistakably soft with a sound and feel reviewers tied directly to Odyssey's heritage. Between the fitting detail on the sole and the consistency of the feel notes, the 2013 White Hot Pro line reads as a putter built to be dialed in as much as felt.

“To me, the White Hot Pro insert screams classic Odyssey. It’s undeniably soft and offers a sound and feel that is just like coming home.”
