Scotty Cameron expands Cameron & Crown putter line

Published

on

In August 2016, Scotty Cameron announced a new line of putters called Cameron & Crown that were designed specifically for an underserved group of golfers: those who use a 33-inch putter. The line included five signature Cameron models that were optimized for their shorter lengths, which is about 2 inches shorter than most putters.

“The release was well received,” Scotty Cameron said about the original Cameron & Crown launch, and the putter maker is adding to his short-putter line with four new models that will be available starting June 16 and sell for $379 each.

I’ve always said that the length sets the eyes, and the eyes set the path,” Cameron said. “For those men, women and juniors who need a shorter putter, it gets their eyes in the right position to make a proper stroke while maintaining good posture and balance.”

The four models — Newport, Mallet 1, Futura 5MB, Futura 6M — are a mix of Cameron’s most popular standard-length putter models. The biggest difference, aside from their length and cosmetics, is that they use heavier putter heads that optimize their swing weight, feel and balance at their shorter lengths. They also use a smaller-diameter, grey Scotty Cameron Matador grips.

    Personally, I don’t think he runs the Cameron Brand anymore, he is the face of “Scotty Cameron Putters”, all this space age rocket stuff if run by the FILA marketing department (or who ever owns Cameron brand) who’s only guide is the excel files with the profit margins.

    Make a stainless steel Newport or Newport 2 and many customers will return

    If people are willing to pay $2K+ for basically ping clubs (pxg) then these will sell just fine

    I am afraid but those just don’t fly of the shelf. You will never hear of this line again next year.

    Any of these putters can be ordered in 33″ length normally. The biggest distinction between a regular SC and the Cameron & Crown line is the difference in color, sole plate design, and grip. Both putter lines cost the same amount from what I’ve seen (or at least the 6m which I plan to purchase). I agree that some people only purchase SC putters for status and do very little testing. However, that is not always the case and I will never judge someone just because of the equipment in their bag. I have tested several putters in a variety of lengths, but nothing has been able to knock my Odyssey White Hot Pro #9 out of the bag until I tried the SC 6m in 33″ with the mid-sized matador grip. It sets up easy every time and fits my stroke. Distance control, alignment, and strike location are much better compared to the Odyssey. Can’t say I too much care for the color choices on the C&C line and the fact I can’t order one direct with the mid-sized matador grip is dumb.

    You’d think with a product as quality as Scotty Cameron putters that they wouldn’t need gimmicks like this. So just cutting a putter down 2 inches yourself makes it obsolete because the weighting, balance and feel are thrown off? Give me a break. I’ve cut mine down to 32.5 and I’ve putted better with it ever since.

    Instead of expanding the line why doesn’t he make putters like the m2 in lefthanded?

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

on

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.”

Published

At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals that all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.

It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.

Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, there is a listing for an Artisan 0521 custom putter

From the seller: (@Nobody2): “$775 -Artisan 0521 custom putter PVD (black finish) with sweep neck hosel.  There are no personal stampings other than my player # in very small print on the side of the hosel (all Artisan products have this along with the date it was made). This putter looks absolutely amazing and has only been used for 3 rounds. It has a black steel shaft and has a very Cam Smith look to it.  The putter looks new and has no wear marks anywhere on the putter.  It comes with extra weights (one set of of 5 gram weights and one set of 15 gram weights). The head cover is a a navy blue ‘quilted blade putter cover.’  If you are wondering why I am selling…I flat out have the yips and the only thing saving me is a broomstick.  New, this putter is $1085, so if the specs work for you (grip, length and lie can certainly be tweaked) it will save you some good money and 2 month wait time.

Specs:

Loft               2.75  degrees
Lie                  69  degrees
Length           35.25″
offset             .300 slightly less than full shaft offset
