The Odyssey Ai-ONE Square 2 Square Max Stripe putter and Max 1 putter have been unveiled as an alternative to the popular L.A.B. Golf DF3 putter.
LAB Golf have emerged as a real contender in the putter market with some unique designs and Odyssey are pushing the boundaries with their own very similar alternative in the Zero Torque sector.
Part of the Zero Torque Square 2 Square range, the Odyssey Ai-ONE Max Stripe was seen at the 2025 Players Championship and a second model the Max 1 (without the stripe), was unveiled at the Valspar Championship.
The full details of the two models have yet to be revealed but they have the classic Versa look of the range of Square 2 Square putters and closely resemble the L.A.B. Golf DF3.
Odyssey Ai-ONE Square 2 Square Max Stripe & Max 1 Putter Design
The Square 2 Square series is known as Zero Torque with Odyssey launching three models in March 2025. The Max Stripe and Max 1 have not officially been launched yet but have been seen on tour.
The putters incorporate a zero-torque, toe-up design, which closely resembles the L.A.B. Golf DF3 that has been successful on tour.
Both putters are center-shafted with a focus on minimizing torque, ensuring a stable stroke for golfers who prefer this style of design.
The Zero-Torque design reduces twisting during the stroke and the centre shaft positioned just behind the leading edge and center of the putter face is for balance and alignment.
Also for alignment on the Max Stripe is the black-and-white contrast and a black alignment line from face to shaft that is inspired by Odyssey’s iconic Versa range.
The putters feature the Ai-ONE face technology with an innovative insert that is 21% more accurate than previous Odyssey face inserts.
Odyssey Ai-ONE Square 2 Square Max Stripe & Max 1 Putters Review: Are they any good?
The launch of the two models represents Odyssey’s effort to compete directly with L.A.B. Golf’s popular designs, most notably the DF3 with the unique design almost replicated.
While incorporating their own alignment technologies and aesthetics, the design and features of the putter head signal a market rival follow L.A.B.’s emergence as a real player in the market.
The Ai-ONE face design brings Odyssey’s impressive ball striking to the party, while the zero-torque design helps maintain a square clubhead and reduce twisting.
The series has already had a bright start and more is expected when the Max Stripe and Max 1 are launched.
