Odyssey Golf Announces New S2S Tri-Hot Putters

CARLSBAD, CA – Today Odyssey Golf, an industry leader in putter innovation and the #1 PuBer on Tour, announced the all-new S2S Tri-Hot lineup that will be available at retailers staring November 7th. S2S Tri-Hot is a revolution in the popular Zero Torque category with a premium blend of tungsten, steel, and ultra-light aluminum, coupled with Odyssey’s new Ai-Dual Insert.

These putters move the Center of Gravity (CG) forward, so that the hosel position can be placed
forward and much closer to the face than typical Zero Torque models. This innovative design
promotes a more natural, intuitive and comfortable set up that eliminates the need for forward
press. By strategically using Aluminum, Steel and over 140 grams of tungsten, more than 80%
of the putter’s weight is placed under the topline.

In addition to moving the CG and hosel forward to promote a squarer stroke, S2S Tri-Hot
features an all-new Ai Dual Insert. Designed using Artificial Intelligence, this dual-layer urethane
insert has a so[ outer layer and a firm inner layer, delivering consistent ball speed across the
face, enhanced forward roll, and amazing feel. A new Forward Roll Groove Design also works in
conjunction with the dual layer design to improve forward roll up and down the face. Odyssey
continues to stand alone as the industry leader in insert designs.

Completing this premium construction, S2S Tri-Hot incorporates a new mid-sized pistol grip.
Created after surveying the most popular grips used on Tour, this offering is developed to fit
comfortably in your hands and provide a better awareness of where the putter face is
throughout the stroke. The black PVD shaft, developed based on Tour player feedback, is
heavier and stiffer than Odyssey’s SL 90 and ideally suited for this style of putter.

“We’re so proud to bring our new Odyssey S2S Tri-Hot Putters to golfers and to Tour players
around the world,” said Jacob Davidson, Odyssey General Manager and Callaway VP of
Equipment Product Strategy. “We are truly moving Zero Torque putters forward with a premium
construction that makes it easy for players to set up square and stay square throughout their
stroke. It looks normal, yet its materials and performance are anything but.”

Odyssey continues to dominate as the #1 Putter in Golf, and the #1 Putter on Tour for over 25
years and counting. This incredible long-term success is led by their commitment to
groundbreaking innovations that help players of all abilities make more putts. The new S2S Tri-
Hot line is available for pre-order now and available at retail starting November 7th. These
models include Jailbird, #7, and Rossie at a price of $549.99 and Jailbird Cruiser at a price of
$599.99.

LOS ANGELES, CA – Maui Jim, the premium brand of polarized sunglasses, debuts its first specific model built to redefine visual precision on the course. Ho’okipa Ultra G features the brand’s latest lens technology, Photochromic PolarizedPlus2, for UV protection, glare elimination, and vibrant color from dawn to dusk. Developed and field tested on the greens, this release marks a renewed commitment to advanced lenses tailored for dynamic outdoor sports.

Prioritizing visual comfort and depth perception, this feature, available in the brand’s Maui HT (high transmission) lens color, automatically adjusts to shifting sunlight and shadow conditions across the course, eliminating the need to remove or switch eyewear mid-round. With PolarizedPlus2 technology, the lens provides continuous UV protection, and a high­ efficiency polarization filter to eliminate glare from grass, enhance contrast, and improve ball-tracking. For golfers with prescription needs, Ho’okipa Ultra G is available in both single vision and progressive lens options.

With Ho’okipa Ultra G, Maui Jim expands its outdoor legacy into the sport of golf by delivering adaptive clarity, visual protection, and uncompromising comfort for those who demand the highest visual performance on the course.
