As the name suggests, Odyssey’s new line of Giraffe Beam putters are long in the neck. How long are they?

The necks on the Giraffe Beam putters are so long that when they drink coffee, it is cold by the time it gets to their stomachs.

Without a trace of sarcasm, I’d answer that neck length question with “long enough.” I’ll explain that answer shortly.

Global Odyssey aficionados know Odyssey released a few Giraffe-Beam models in the Japanese marketplace in 2024. This new line expands upon that initial offering and, more importantly, will be available in the U.S.

All five new models feature a stunning copper-finish, giraffe-themed aesthetics, Odyssey’s Ai-ONE insert and the namesake Giraffe Beam hosel.

Look, I’ve tested more golf shoes than I care to admit. Some are garbage wrapped in fancy marketing. But PAYNTR? They’re different.

Actually different.

The brand just dropped their Clubhouse Collection, and I’m not being dramatic when I say these are some of the best golf shoes ever made. Yeah, I said it. Fight me.

There’s a reason PAYNTR dominates our Most Wanted testing. When I heard they were doing something special for the next two Majors? I may have drooled more than my teething baby.

PAYNTR took their award-winning Eighty Seven SC model—already a masterpiece—and created something even better. The Clubhouse Collection celebrates this summer’s major championships with two insanely limited colorways that pay tribute to Oakmont Country Club and Royal Portrush.

Eighty years. That’s how long FootJoy has been the king of golf footwear.

And honestly? They’re not letting you forget it.

To celebrate this milestone, FootJoy just dropped the third installment of their Legends Series collection. These aren’t your typical golf shoes – they’re basically museum pieces you can actually wear on the course.

Drop III features the Premiere Series Packard model, and it’s dripping with vintage vibes. We’re talking elevated navy and red accents that scream classic American golf style. But here’s the cool part: there’s a red “1945” emblazoned on the midsole. That’s the year FootJoy started their legendary run as golf’s #1 shoe brand.

jQuery( document ).ready( function( $ ) { var slides = $( '#mgs_gallery_684866767537c .mgs-gallery-images .mgs-gallery-image' ).length; if ( slides 6 ) { slides = 6; } $( '#mgs_gallery_684866767537c .mgs-gallery-images' ).slick( { slidesToShow: 1, slidesToScroll: 1, fade: true, prevArrow: '', nextArrow: '', asNavFor: '#mgs_gallery_684866767537c .mgs-gallery-thumbs', swipe: false, mobileFirst: true, } ); $( '#mgs_gallery_684866767537c .mgs-gallery-thumbs' ).slick( { slidesToShow: ( slides - 1 ), //less than number of slides, so it always shows infinite scroll (bugfix) slidesToScroll: 1, arrows: false, asNavFor: '#mgs_gallery_684866767537c .mgs-gallery-images', centerMode: true, focusOnSelect: true, infinite: true, mobileFirst: true, responsive: [ { breakpoint: 1023, settings: { slidesToShow: 3, }, }, { breakpoint: 600, settings: { slidesToShow: 1, }, }, ], } ); $( '#mgs_gallery_684866767537c' ).magnificPopup( { delegate: '.mgs-gallery-trigger', type: 'image', gallery: { enabled: true, arrowMarkup: '', }, } ); } );

The craftsmanship is where things get serious. Hand-selected, premium full grain leather gives these shoes an iconic look that’ll make you feel like you stepped out of a 1950s golf magazine. These are for players who know the difference between good and great – and aren’t afraid to pay for it.
