Are they taking pre-orders?

 

 

[Golfdoctor]

At first they had a 33" with 20 gram weight, and now it's only a 34 & 35" listed on there website.

He could have charged $999 and it would probably still sell out.

Totally agree. Regular Camerons off the rack are $399, right? So only 50 pct more for a limited edition and a fairly iconic one at that. In the high-end putter world that almost sounds like a giveaway.

Im just not sure I can wait until the golf stores release these. May have to find a titleist rep to help my mind feel at ease

[j-rob]

I was finally able to order mine, pretty pumped about it.

[kennyFpowers55]

Need help ordering one. Can't find anywhere that's taking presale orders. Nowhere to be found on Carl's golf land and I've been checking religiously.

Call every club champion you can until you find one... they will ship it to you.

The story behind the putter

 

Aside from giving the putter an eye-catching look, the silicone dots serve a technical purpose as well, reducing unwanted vibrations and improving overall feel at impact. The design sounds like something concocted out of an R&D lab — only that isn’t how Cameron typically operates.

 

Cameron is used to finding inspiration in the darndest of places, well outside the walls of his headquarters in San Marcos, California. The silicone dots are no different.

 

As the story goes, Cameron happened upon the design almost by mistake while trying to rectify a busted muffler on his car. With the muffler dragging on the ground, Cameron got underneath the car and noticed a rubber strut was holding the other muffler place.

 

“I remember thinking that was going to eventually break,” Cameron told GOLF.com. “I figured, why don’t I just mill a bracket to the broken muffler and make it to where it would never come undone again, never break.”

An avid car enthusiast, Cameron is used to doing many of his own repairs. In this particular case, he raised the car up, milled the bracket out of steel and reattached the muffler himself. Mission accomplished. At least that was the assumption until he turned the car on.

 

“The vibration of the solid mount versus the rubber mount on the other side was incredible,” Cameron said. “The rubber mount made a world of difference with vibration and sound. That was kind of the ‘aha’ moment.”

 

At the same time Cameron was dealing with a busted muffler, he was going through an equally perplexing issue with the Newport TeI3. The Teryllium copper insert was fastened to the cavity using five screws during the milling process — one in each corner of the back cavity and one in the center — but the center screw was causing the putter to elicit a harsh feel at impact.

 

“As I’m sitting there noticing how harsh the vibrations are from the muffler I just attached with a steel bracket, I started thinking, what if I could get some rubber behind the insert of the putter — or a soft material that would help just like a rubber bracket?”

Cameron worked with a few different chemical companies to create a rubberized glue that could dampen vibration and sound, but none of them seemed to do the trick.

 

“I wanted a rubberized glue you could poke and feel, which wasn’t easy to find,” he said. “I still remember, I was watching golf on a Sunday — my daughter, I believe, is four years old — and I suddenly remember seeing a silicone at Target. The silicone that’s actually an adhesive, so it could hold in the insert, but also stay rubberized because it had a silicone compound to it.”

Cameron packed his daughter in the car and immediately headed for Target, where he found nine different types of silicone to test. To figure out which version worked best, he nailed nine holes in a piece of steel and labeled each tube and hole to keep each silicone straight. From there, he applied the silicone to each hole and waited 24 hours for the result.

 

In the end, a tube of GE Tub and Tile Silicone caulk proved to be the clear winner.

 

“The goal was to be able to poke it like a sales rep could come and say to the buyer, ‘Hey, feel the rubber. It’s not a white paint,'” Cameron said. “I wanted the rubber to stand out.”

 

Cameron admitted he could have made a complete pocket behind the inlay and pooled the silicone membrane in the back, but the process would have taken forever for the silicone to dry. Not to mention the inlay would sink because the surface was too big and droop in the middle. So Cameron tried adding holes in the back cavity, which allowed the silicone membrane to adhere to the insert and dry more effectively.

Cameron was 32 years old at the time Newport Teryllium was created, so he added 32 white holes to the cavity, just for kicks.

With Tiger Woods wielding the putter at the 1997 Masters, Teryllium became one of the hottest putters in the industry, blending new-age technology with one of the most popular head shapes (Anser-style) in the history of the sport. To this day, it remains one of Cameron’s most coveted putters.

 

“And to think the original putter came together in the end simply from an idea working on a car,” Cameron said. “That’s pretty cool.”

Nice story

[j-rob]

I imagine that the resale market will be saturated with these come late August. Either way, still very excited to receive mine. It’s been a long time since I’ve been excited for a club.

The problem is Carls don't have any ideal of how many they will get. If you're friends with any of there sales staff, you can have them call you when they hear anything from Titleist.

I was able to pre-order a Newport 2 34". They only had (2) of each model 34" & 35" for sale. I guess they are all spoken for...

Nice story by Jonathan Wall! He does good work!

BINGO then everyone will think its a deal when they retail for $499

 

[BYK]

With the new line that’s coming and the changes being made I’d be surprised if it wasn’t 449-499

[dupaloop3611]

Club Champion just called me and said the SKU was pulled across the country they are sold out

[newportbeach]

Not surprising. I’m betting those that do pre-sales will be sold out before they get them.

[FatCityChamp]

Hearing different things about the demand for these, as well as how many total were produced. I just got an order in for a Newport; was told plenty of Fast Backs remain, and that the Newport 2’s were gone.

 

Also was told that they only made 600 total, which seems low to me. Who knows. I always wanted one and am glad I got the order in.

I'd be over the moon if there were that few, considering I have ordered two. But I'm thinking the estimates of 2,000 per model/6,000 total that were mentioned earlier are closer to the truth.

[burnsniper]

I was also able to order a Newport through one of my private clubs.

[whiteout73]

Woohoo. I've got a Fastback 1.5 on order, through my club pro.

Nice!

 

[Frozen Golfer]

My pro says I have a Newport 2 coming...tried to buy a NP as well on the day these were released for pre-order but was too slow apparently. Can't wait to roll this!

[drbonesvt]

What does the Dale / 009 / NP look like from the back / flange side

[BlackM00Nlight]

Got my name on a Newport at my local Golf Galaxy. Kind of excited ?. To game or not to game ?

[raynorfan1]

I don’t think these are going to be that hard to get your hands on - I had no trouble getting an order in through our pro shop.

[Bloom]

Got one on order from my pro shop!
