Spotted: Scotty Cameron’s new X7M putter
We spotted a new Scotty Cameron putter at the 2015 WGC-Bridgestone Invitational on Tuesday, which appears to be called “Tour X7M.”
The putter looks similar to Cameron’s previously released X5 and X5R putters, except the fangs seem to be elongated and bridged, which would put additional weight behind the putter thus boosting MOI.
We will update the story with more information as it becomes available. Until then, join the discussion about the new putters here.
See what GolfWRX members are saying about Scotty’s new X7M putters.

I will never buy a Scotty Cameron putter again. I have not bought anything since he started putting stupid weights on the bottom of the putter that took away the solid feel of the one-piece blades he used to create so long ago.
And what’s with all the copy designs? He’s run out of ideas and and are now selling just to make easy money, it’s no longer about refined quality at good prices

Just proves he is a good putter maker, not a good designer. Take another design mill it put the cameron name on it sell it for $200 more. He developed a market

Spot on! SC makes “Homage” putters. They should at least acknowledge this and re-name them:
SCAnser, SC#7 etc etc as a courtesy to the originals.
The putter will probably stay longer in your bag than any other club. SC know this so make sure they make a shed-load on every sale.

Hey, Scotty. Make a face balanced blade that’s not center shafted. Then I’ll buy for $350.

I’m sure it rolls really nice, but… its strikingly similar to the Odyssey #7. Think there were a few scotty staffers asking for a design like this?

Looks like the Odyssey Jailbird crossed with the number #7. And the X7 is the same as the #7. Makes you wonder whether there’s no new shape option left so copying is the only way to create something new.
