White Hot Pro Insert

The White Hot Pro Insert arrived in 2013 as, per golfalot.com, a new addition to the Pro range, built around a high MOI mallet shape and finished in Gun Metal PVD. Golfalot.com credits the design to Austie Rollinson, Principal Designer at Odyssey Golf, and the outlet reports it was available across 14 different head shapes, with a listed MSRP of 109. Golfalot.com dates its availability to March 1st.

At the center of the release is the insert itself. Golfalot.com describes it as based on the original White Hot insert, while thehackersparadise.com attributes its construction to a laser cutting manufacturing process, a detail golfalot.com frames instead as a new laser milling process applied to the face. Visually, thehackersparadise.com describes bright white surrounded by simple face milling, with the word Pro set on a red background.

Reviewers who spent time with it were largely in agreement on feel. The consensus recorded here praises a soft feel, consistent sound and feel across the face, and a quick forward roll off the face. Thehackersparadise.com put it more plainly, calling the putter "undeniably soft" and writing that it "offers a sound and feel that is just like coming home." Set against the rest of the White Hot line, the Pro Insert reads as the version built to refine what the original White Hot insert started, with a milling process and finish meant to set it apart within Odyssey's Pro range rather than depart from the family it belongs to.
