JT moved to a blade putter at the Sentry?

[jacobanderson123]

what’s the difference with 303SS and SSS? Anyone know what grade it is?

[Trippels]

Anyone else who thought until right now that "SSS" stood for "Swiss Stainless Steel"?

Like "German Stainless Steel" but even more quality focused

Maybe he got a copy of the tiger wand putter from Scotty or perhaps one of tiger’s old ones.

It’s a circle t he’s had since middle school apparently.

I heard JT showed up at Encinitas early, like 6AM and was third in line.  Unfortunately the first two guys bought the only Circle Ts.  Luckily he stuck around and when they came back from lunch he scored a circle T.

Yeah here’s another close up of the stick this week. Interested to see if he’s rolling it tomorrow.

Hi all, I saw a post on instagram this morning which showed JT using a blade putter, it looked to have a standard scottie grip too but I cant find the post anymore!!

 

Does anyone have any info on this, or can find the picture so we can see which model and grip?

good to know. Because I honestly didn't. 

 

JT was rolling the blade putter on the no laying up video from last night. So it looks to be going into play.

I’d say this is a great thing.  He finally losing that mallet crutch.  He never putted better with it.  Whne he came out using the blade. He was no better or worse than he’s been with the mallet.    But he’s to a point now where learning how to feel , couldn’t hurt.

His strokes gained with the mallet was to be frank, horrendous

About $3,000 difference

I believe cameron just changed what he called it from early to late putters. It’s the same thing.  I don’t know if the sss means standard stainless steel or what. But that’s basically what 303 is.  Mid grade machine stainless.

SSS means ‘Spensive stainless steel*

A few of the video pans I believe show a mallet in the bag as well, unless it was Neil or Soly with two putters in the bag.

They are both 303. SSS = studio stainless steel and SS is stainless steel. So no difference unless you think something happens with an extra S in a studio.

I thought it was Surgical grade stainless steel. 

[golf9596]

Could that be a little “Tiger” influence??? They seem to be besties..

[Nard_S]

That putter is not a blade. An 8802 style is.

 

Edit: It's an Anser, give Karsten his due.

Back in the day Scotty would refer to it as studio stainless steel after the putter studio. There is also the studio stainless line of putters. More marketing than anything. 

[CasualLie]

JT must have been popular at the AJGA tourneys... Rocking a handstamped Scotty as a teen!

[rukahs]

Definitely Tiger inspired, my bet is he had a little go of Tiger's and reminded himself how much he liked the Newport 2.

Winner, winner! This is what I recalled it being known as as well. 

[MattyO1984]

He was -0.969 strokes gained with the blade yesterday...
