I’ve an Odyssey Sabre-tooth Putter and today the half the metallic insert popped out. As this item was purchased second hand it’s unlikely that Odyssey will repair. And suggestions on how I can repair or replace the insert. I appreciate any comments on this.

Shafting epoxy.

Thanks but not entirely sure how to do this as the metal plate is still partially fixed. If I lever it off I could end up bending it.

Just prised it off. Nothing really holding it on. Hardly surprising it pinged open. I’ll look for shafting epoxy.

Hmm...Is there enough room to get a few drops of super glue behind the insert?  If so; you could apply a bit of Chap-Stick to the visible surface area, glue it, and clamp it.  The Chap-Stick will keep any glue that squeezes out from bonding properly.

Hi, not sure about Chap-Stick but the metal insert is out completely. So the question is what to use to bond it an retain the characteristics.

You should at least contact Callaway.

Yea, contact Callaway. They may want to look at it anyway, who knows.

If you want to go the DIY route, I'm sure you can get away with any epoxy from the hardware store that bonds metal. Shafting epoxy is used on clubs because it has a higher shear strength, but on a putter it's probably not necessary.

Heck if that was my putter, I'd probably just Gorilla glue it on.

I'd use shafting epoxy.  It doesn't become brittle when it cures and can withstand vibration.  Adhesive caulk would work as well.  Any hardware store will have something appropriate.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      A bit of a struggle today.  Just some thoughts/musings.  For the backswing, it is like I am never going to be moving on from this. I don't know if I can ever get to the point where the backswing isn't like over 1.5 seconds in duration. Which is probably not ideal. I would like to get to the point where I can just fling the arms back and up.  I have to feel like my hands are going to hit my right thigh from P1 to P2. If not then they like to move 2-5 inches towards the ball from P1 to P2. Then it's just bad from there. This feeling is my hands not gaining much depth, just maintaining depth from set up. From the DTL view, the hands head towards the camera.  While I am doing that, hinge the crap out of the club with my wrist only. Hinge in a way that the club is pointing at the camera at P2.  From P2, lift the hands straight up. I can get here, and still roll the club inside and get it way too shallow.  With the downswing. There isn't much here. I still can't get the flow of this or the sequencing of this to line up. It doesn't help that hinging from P1 to P2 just throws off my entire timing as well.
