Spotted: New Scotty Cameron Putters at the Sony Open
We spotted three new Scotty Cameron putters at the Sony Open in Hawaii this week, where they’re being testing by PGA Tour players. Titleist is yet to announce any new Scotty Cameron models, however, so we can’t confirm if or when these putters are coming to retail.
Each of the mallets (T5MB, T5S and T6M) has a multi-material design and color scheme similar to Scotty Cameron’s current line Futura of putters, which includes the X5, X5R, X7 and X7M models.

In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups in our forum.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
- driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300. The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length. I am playing a Ventus Red 70. I play 70 grams in my fairways. I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee. When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time. So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck. The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
- JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”

I think these are great. Cameron has come out with decades and decades of classic designs. As a designer, how do you develop your craft (and the game of golf) if you’re releasing the same model of putter over and over and over again? If you want a classic Cameron, jump on eBay and grab one of Cameron’s many classic models. Otherwise, I think it’s great to see technology improving the game of putting. Stoked for these to hit the market.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!! and I don’t mean it in a nice way,,,,,, is Cameron jumping the shark? Wonder if FILA has taken over now?
He Cameron, bring back the old simple stainless steel, matte finish , no insert, no gimmick Newports

don’t know what happened to the classic cameron designs. these are awful, I’m ok with a few high MOI designs, but what happened to the California models? those were awesome, seems all the better looking putters are saved for the gallery designs which are 2k plus. if I’m spending that on a putter it better putt itself and avg 18 putts a round

not sure what happened to the classic designs he used to make. seems today he saves all the classic designs for the gallery putters which are all 2k plus. wish he would come out with some more affordable options with classic designs

Well I finally got to play my first round with a Scotty Newport 2 on holiday…. Love the look of those red glass dot things on the back.
Hahahahaha what a piece of tinny sounding junk. Identical feel to my wife’s $12 Dunlop Anser special. Marketing genius, zero substance.
BRB I’m going to stick a ‘tour use only’ label on all my clubs just to wind my club mates up.

Same old tired looking designs but you have to hand it to Scotty for his marketing genius.

If they still feel as hollow and tingy as the x5, then they’re the most overpriced putters in history

The T6M is hideous. I get it, I understand the concept, but I don’t want to putt with an alien probe.
