Scotty Cameron Putters

35" Only?
I'm looking for a little advice here on what exactly to do with my putter situation.... i curently am using the white steel 2-ball blade 33", and it seems to work the complete opposite for me than every other review that i've read, i can't make a putt from 5-10 feet, but my lags are tremendous........ throughout my life i've been a very good putter, and am convinced it is the club which is this problem...... i have rolled the '05 cameron studios and really like the newport 1.5........ however, this only comes in 35", and i use a 33"........ i know i can get it cut down, but how will this affect weight, balance, roll, feel, etc.? i know i can use lead tape, but how well does this work on putters, and where and how much to use? any feedback is very much appriciated.......... thanks all!!!

Scotty's philosophy is a little different than some manufacturers when it comes to producing shorter putters. First Scotty measures his putter from the top of the grip to the sweetspot on the face so, it maybe shorter than say your 33" Whitehot. Next, in order to keep the proper swingweight, as Scotty sees it, he makes putters in 33"/350g, 34"/340g, and 35"/330g. Specifically to your question, you can cut down the newport, cause I don't think he makes one in 33" in that model, and put lead tape either on the sole or behind the cavity. Since the whitehot doesn't do progressive weighting, you may not even need tape. Of course tape also gives you the option of experimenting with weight too!

whoa, i thought scotty's measurements usually ran taller than the normal ones. For example, you said that if its a 35" scotty putter, it would probably be 35.5". From what i hear, its more like 34.5 for some reason. I'm not sure how they measure these things, but I've just heard that they're usualy .5 SHORTER than what Scotty puts as the length

Could be the putter, could be something as simple as the grip or even the length. Little things can make a lot of difference, especially in putters.

 

(there again, eventhough I've tried to like 'em, I hate the 2-balls too - but that's just me)

 

Anyway, the SC putters do actually come in a variety of lengths - as another poster noted - and likely the reason you only saw 35" models is that that particular length is sort of an "industry standard". And while some shops do order 34" length putters (primarily with women customers in mind), 35 is the most popular ordered length to help in controlling inventory (you could imagine if a shop ordered 3 seperate lengths of each putter model they carried, even from one manufacturer, that it would amount to a whole lot of standing inventory).

 

Though SC does make different weight heads for their different length putters, this is something you should be able to work around (with a little lead tape, it won't take much) -- and it might be that you'll find that you actually putt better, especially from short distances, by using a light(er) putter. It IS a matter of taste of course, and one only you would know for sure.
