How the 4.0 adds up
The forgiveness score is our reading of what Odyssey publishes about the head, from 1 to 5. It is not a test result. How every score works.
| Part | Points | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Head type | 4 | Zero-torque build: the shaft sits at the balance point, so the face turns less during the stroke. |
| Forgiveness score | 4.0 | of 5 |
The score rates the head only. Length and hand decide which version you buy, not how forgiving it is.

| Face technology | Ai-DUAL insert (dual-layer: soft urethane outer layer over a firm inner layer) with the new FRD (Forward Roll Design) Groove at a 19 degree slope |
| Construction | Head Type listed as Mallet; maker's words: "the most stable putter in our line, this zero-toque putter wants to stay square to your path throughout your stroke." Hosel/neck: modern center-shafted design that centers the shaft just above the CG plane, so the head rests toe-up (spec table shows Toe Hang "90 degrees UP") and the face stays square through the stroke; 2 degrees of built-in forward shaft lean presets a forward press. Alignment aid: the 1/2 Ball design, "Odyssey's next revolutionary alignment technology," which frames the ball to help centre impact and improve aim. Loft 3 degrees, lie 72 degrees, head weight 365g. Stock shaft is the Odyssey S2S SL120 stepless black PVD steel (heavier and stiffer than the SL 90); stock grip is the Odyssey S2S Reverse Taper 2.0 oversize, shaped to offset the 2 degrees of shaft lean. |
