Odyssey Toulon Design Indianapolis Putter Review

This is the third incarnation of the multi-material Indianapolis mallet design.The Indianapolis features show-stopping feel and stability.Available at Odyssey.CallawayGolf.com and other online retailers with a MSRP of $649.99.

Today, I’m bring you a deep-dive review of the new Odyssey Toulon Design Indianapolis putter. Way back in 2017, the Toulon Design division of Odyssey golf unveiled the Indianapolis design. As the name suggests, the Indianapolis design was inspired by open-wheeled Indy race cars. Both the putter’s shape and its carbon-fiber construction could be traced to the racetrack.

The second Indianapolis design appeared a year later as part of the Odyssey EXO putter line. The Odyssey EXO Indianapolis traded in its carbon-fiber core for aluminum. This change, along with some other design tweaks, allowed Odyssey to seriously boost the MOI and the stability of the entire EXO line.

This new Indianapolis represents a departure, or perhaps an evolution, from the previous two Indianapolis designs. You won’t find the carbon fiber of the original or the Odyssey White Hot Microhinge insert of the EXO version.

The race car vibe is still there but this new Indianapolis is on a different track.

This Indianapolis is Designed by Toulon

Though the Indianapolis carries both the Odyssey and Toulon Design names, I’d say it has a much more Toulon Design feel. Sure, it has the easily identifiable red Odyssey Stroke Lab shaft but the remainder of this insert-free putter head says Toulon Design.
