Odyssey Ai-ONE GIRAFFE-BEAM JAILBIRD MINI Putter 34 in STROKE LAB 90 Steel Shaft
Description
By lengthening the vertical part, it is closer to face balance.
The Ai-ONE GIRAFFE-BEAM putter, like the GIRAFFE-BEAM putter released in 2024, has a long neck with a longer vertical part of the crank hosel, as the name GIRAFFE = giraffe suggests. With a long neck, the shaft axis is more likely to face the center of the face, resulting in a center of gravity angle closer to face balance. For example, this shape is suitable for players who prefer a blade putter x crank hosel but also want the feeling of making a straight stroke automatically.
A neck that combines high rigidity and lightness more than the previous model
In addition, the neck of the Ai-ONE GIRAFFE-BEAM putter is not just long. In the previous model, the vertical part was slightly wider than a normal crank hosel, and the cross section was made like the H-shaped steel used in building beams and columns, achieving both high rigidity and lightness at the same time, but this model further promotes both. The vertical part is thinner than the previous model, and grooves are only on one side, achieving the same rigidity as the previous model and further lightening. As a result, it has the effect of suppressing face twisting even in the case of off-center hits. In addition, it is lighter than the conventional crank neck, making it easy to match not only blade types but also large mallets that tend to have heavy heads.
In order to suppress the opening and closing of the face due to the impact point deviation by 5.2%
In the "Ai-ONE GIRAFFE-BEAM Putter", the weight that was saved by the new neck is distributed and relocated to the toe and heel of the head. In addition, the back of the AI insert is hollow, which contributes to optimizing the weight distribution, resulting in a head with a larger moment of inertia than the previous model, and together with the highly rigid long neck, it reduces the opening and closing of the face when hitting off-center. In a comparison by Odyssey, it was also found that the opening and closing of the face is suppressed by 5.2%* compared to the previous GIRAFFE-BEAM putter.
46.7% improvement in ball speed reduction
The insert is also a big difference from the previous model. The GIRAFFE-BEAM putter was equipped with a White Hot insert, but this model uses the Ai-ONE insert. The Ai-ONE insert, which is well known from Ai-ONE putters, has an aluminum part with complex ridges designed by AI layered on the back of the resin part on the impact side. Normally, it is said that if the impact point is shifted by 1 cm to the toe or heel, the ball speed will decrease by about 20% (2 m short on a 10 m putt), but the effect of the ridges in the aluminum part reduces the decrease in ball speed by about 5% (50 cm short on a 10 m putt). In addition, data (according to Odyssey) shows that the effect of this insert, combined with the high rigidity of the neck and the high moment of inertia of the head, has improved the decrease in ball speed due to the impact point deviation to the toe and heel by 46.7%* from the GIRAFFE-BEAM putter. In addition, the insert color is black this time, which helps to reduce the contrast between the insert and the body color when addressing the ball.
Most of the body is finished in copper to resemble a giraffe
The Ai-ONE GIRAFFE-BEAM putter, like the previous GIRAFFE-BEAM putter, is also notable for its design that evokes the image of a giraffe in many places. The logo features an illustration of a giraffe, and most of the body is finished in copper, which is close to the color of a giraffe's body. The sole is laser-drawn with a giraffe pattern, the grip has a different ODYSSEY logo from the previous model, and the head cover is luxuriously embroidered with a giraffe pattern this time. The toe and heel at the front of the sole are each equipped with a weight of about 10g (only the #2 is about 15g). The head lineup is available in four types: #2, DW, #7, and JAILBIRD MINI, and all of them are combined with the STROKE LAB 90 shaft, which is made of steel.
