Standard Grips
The standard grips on contemporary Odyssey putters are all manufactured by the Golf Pride company. Golf Pride has been the top seller of golf grips for generations and it produces a wide variety of grips for an even wider variety of club manufacturers. Most of the current standard grips are a leather-style rubber grip in colors that match the club design. The grip for the original White Hot series is still exceedingly popular; it is a black rubber grip with white textured hash marks.
Brand Specific
There are about eight different grip styles branded specifically for Odyssey putters. Most of these are in the leather-style soft rubber grip family. Soft in texture and colored to match the different Odyssey brand models, these putters have a satisfying feel but can get slippery in wet weather.
Models
Standard sized leather-style models include the following:
Taboo -- Striking in black and yellow.
Tempest -- Features bold white graphics.
Americana -- This is a blue grip with a stylized logo and pattern.
Black Series -- Modeled specifically for the Black Series putters.
Dual Force -- The newest grip style available on the latest Odyssey putters.
White Steel -- A very red grip for players who favor bright colors.
Jumbo -- Features a larger diameter to discourage wrists breaking down.
White Hot -- This is the classic black rubber grip with white hash marks.
Replacement Grips
The above-named grips are the types of grips that come standard on new Odyssey putters. If your grip wears out or becomes slick, you can certainly find an exact replacement for the grip on your putter or replace it with any one of these--or any other putter grip, for that matter. Even Tiger Woods uses a Ping putter grip on his Titleist Scotty Cameron putter. It is most important to have a grip that feels comfortable to you on your own Odyssey putter.
Price
Prices for replacement Odyssey branded putter grips run anywhere from $8 to about $15 depending on where you purchase them. Replacement grips are available at pro shops, specialty stores and online retailers.
