Scotty Cameron Prototype Mallet Pics

[Meanmachinemoe]

The new pics actually don't look that terrible. I'm not a fan of the yellow sightlines but other than that they aren't as awful as I first thought. Let's face it. All OEMs have some pretty "different" designs. Bettinardi Inovai models, Ping Ketsch, Sidney, Odyssey Sabretooth, 2Ball F7, TM Daddy Long Legs, Spider, just to name a few. Then look at all OEMs and they all make traditional blades as well and all very similar to each other across the OEMs.

 

These designs deserve some slack from the Cameron haters and will get plenty of love from his supporters. For me, I'm on the fence and back to the fundamental idea of playing whatever makes me better.

The comments in this thread are hilarious. I'd still be interested in trying them to see how they feel. If I putt great with one of them there's nothing a little paint fill won't fix

4 in play at Sony Open...and Keith Mitchell Rollin CX-02

Hopefully there are a few heads, then just these! Something round like the golo’s or the mb/cb

Everyone, and I mean everyone said this crap about the 2ball and it was one of the best selling putters ever.

 

Spider had a similar reaction, then DJ won a few and “it’s the best putter ever made!!!!”

 

I’m just glad that everybody realizes that the one putter fits all is a pipe dream.

Add in the fact that this is about Scotty Cameron and here ya go.

 

Although this is pretty much how every new release of his goes. He’s jumped the shark, lost it, best days are behind him, he’s done, Xerox strikes again, why no carbon, doesn’t care about retail...

 

Same ol same ol. If an ugly mallet line signals the beginning of the end for putter makers they’re would be too many left. He’ll be ok.

I'd buy one (for $12 shipped). :taunt:

[Medson]

So he drew the inspiration from the unique rock on the top of Himalaya ...

 

Just kidding. Dude, just release a flow neck 5W, SOLD~~~

[gabeebe]

Maybe a little TM Spider influence in shape.

Yes, but they weren't selling their ugly putters for 1000's of dollars or whatever Circle T's sell for nowadays.

If they could get thousands of dollars you better believe they would. A Spider or 2 Ball isn't priced lower than a Circle T because TM or Callaway is being nice.

 

Cameron gets that price because PEOPLE ACTUALLY PAY thousands of dollars for stuff with his name on it. Blows my mind what people actually pay for Cameron tour putters.

Cameron creates that demand by NOT offering to retail the stuff the guys on tour are using - i.e. fully milled SS or Carbon heads with minimal branding.

 

Until Toulon/Odyssey there haven't been many options for these high quality fully milled tour validated heads available to retail. I think 2019 Toulon line is going to dramatically eat into Cameron sales. Toulon is actually giving golfers what they are asking for. Long term, Toulon/Odyssey partnership could lead Cameron back to designing "no gimmick" putters as Acushnet isn't going to watch their market share walk away.

I don't know how they aren't already eating into Cameron's share... All I see on the course for the most part, are Odysseys. I couldn't get on the bandwagon for a long time but then I had to stop and ask why I would pay so much for another putter when an Odyssey can do the same thing, look good, and feel good... for less than $100. I think it's great that there are people out there who can drop a lot of coin on a Cameron, just because it is a Cameron, but it just seems really silly to me, and these new mallets are awful. I would have to agree with the flow neck 5... they would sell so many of those. I don't understand why he doesn't go back to basics and really offer what people want (regular people, who can't drop $5000 on a putter) instead of force-feeding us something that looks like a boy scout race car on a stick.

Tried one of these prototype mallets earlier today, after the first roll I was hooked, my garage door opened out of nowhere and my tv ended up recording the entire cooking network show programming from last Tuesday. Also ended up getting stuck in 1983, send help. This isn’t a putter.
