Scotty Cameron PGA Show: Table Rock Golf
Every year at the PGA Show you can count on some madness.
Every Thursday at 8 a.m. for years there is a line of buyers ready to pull the trigger on putters made by Scotty Cameron at Jim Butler’s “Table Rock Golf” booth, where he and his family manage one of the biggest putter spectacles on earth.
Just like at you local deli counter, you have to draw a number to get in line to buy a putter that can cost as much as $20,000.
I was let in early to take photos and Jim Butler said, “You have 8 more minutes before you have to leave. That is when we will let in five customers at a time.”
Scotty Cameron makes garage putters for a few sellers in the world and Table Rock Golf is one. Every year Jim Butler orchestrates a masterpiece of putter madness for the first two to three hours of the PGA Merchandise Show, where buyers from around the world come to feed on the rare garage putter availability.
Only by watching this from a distance can you see the true genius of Scotty Cameron and what his last 20 plus years has created. The pace of this booth and the stress on the faces of the buyers waiting in line as they make split decisions that can cost from $900 to $20,000.00 per putter makes for great theater.

The new Staff Model ZM Wedges incorporate a new high-spin groove construction, face milling and Garnet Face Blasted finish that all work together in design to to ensure a faster, deeper and longer ball interaction.

A new progressive CG design exists as the lofts increase in a bid to promote a more consistent and controlled ball flight.

Don’t get me wrong, I have much respect for anyone who loves his craft, but where is the lefty love? Where is the Scotty for us lefties with the same abundance that’s there for the common folk (righties)?

I agree. I too have several SC putters and I am curios as to why all the haters on WRX?? I have owned the Tour version putters for three years and when it comes time to switch it up I can post a for sale ad and sell it for what I paid for it or more. What other putter manufacturer can you say the same for?

Love the Scotty Cameron putters and have enjoyed using mine for the last 2 years.
They exude class, style and performance and come with great head covers as well.
Hard to believe some of them cost as much as $20,000 though?
