Anyone tried the Scotty Cameron Circa62 putters?

[Mizunofan]

Have not found them in stores yet. If anybody here has tried them, feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have putted with a 1 & 2. I love the finish...its a beautiful putter....but I did not care for the alignment....when looking down at a black putter, the lines seem to meld togther, and you have a site oval...that is all, based on that I found alignment differcult. The feel is wonderful....but for me, the alignement was an issue, along with taking care of that gun blue finish, its something that needs to be oiled after each use. Beautiful putter though and its being used by many and alot of tour.

 

One can always send the Circa back to the Custom Shop and Scotty and get a Pro Platinum Finish applied and site line to illeviate the alignement and finish issue. I am considering this.

 

Also I have heard WONDERFUL things about the #5....many love it. I am looking forward to trying it.

I pulled the trigger after trying them at a couple different shops. I opted for the #3 because it had the perpendicular lines in the cavity. I had owned a couple black studio design's in the past and regretted getting rid of them. The feel is great and I really like the extra weight in the toe. It also seems like the sweet spot is more toward the heel, which is where I subconsciously seem to want to hit the ball. I ordered mine with the leather grip that comes on the bullseye flange. The one that comes with the circa 62 ties in back, which I didn't like. Not looking forward to it rusting though. If you try one at a pro shop, use a quality ball like ProV1. The ball really makes a difference with this putter.

I also have the #3. Love the setup and look. I had been playing a studio style 2.5 and a santa fe but decided to go with the plumbers neck instead of the flowing neck. I feel like I am standing more upright with this putter which helps me keeps my eyes over the ball. I have putted much better since switching. So good that I sold the santa fe. Good Luck

Tried them again for the 2nd time in the store. Very similar to the Studio series with very little different. Definite copy of the TP Mills design. As with my first try of them, I wasn't impressed.

 

As usual, Scotty's retail putters are very light. Only offering the putter in 35" lenght with no option to adjust lie is insulting for a putter in this price range. Head seems a little small compared to my Newport. With the light weight, difficult to control.

 

The grip feels and looks great until you try to putt. All style - no substance.

 

The finish is fantastic and gorgeous.

 

Bottom line - if I wanted a putter in this "look," I would get a Studio off of eBay before paying the "new" price for this line.

I picked up a #3 off eBay just based on the pictures I'd seen. I like it a lot. The carbon steel head just gives me a better feel than the stainless steel. I like the way it sits, I like the round sight dot, I like the color, although I wish it had less glare. May spray it with hairspray or clear matte to knock down the shine a bit. I didn't like the grip so I took it off and sold it and replaced with a red Studio Design, after lengthening the putter to my preferred 36 inches. I think it's going to be my gamer this year.

I am also not a big fan of the grip, but that can be fixed easily.

I like the grip, but for the most part the line is quite uninspiring.... a tp mills professional series would be my pick over them. Real quality in them.

I have used the #5 for about two weeks:

Positives:

Look, Finish Balance, Feel

 

Draw backs:

I agree with the grip comments, I'm getting mine pulled and replaced

I would like a little more weight but am afraind to add anything to this beautiful putter.

 

Bottom Line:

I may not be the best putter in the world, but damn, three putting never felt better
