Need opinions of a Cameron I recently acquired

[malkin24]

I'm looking for some opinions of what I believe to be an early handmade. I am confident that it is legit, but the grip and top line have me wondering. If anybody has any thoughts on this putter, I would greatly appreciate it.

[Etiger83]

Bwahahahaha love it when this monstrosity gets posted

[gxDD]

This is more than likely a situation where you'd want to contact Titleist/Custom Shop. I've heard of instances where, assuming this is legit, they will offer you a handsome trade for the item you have. That's also assuming Mr. Cameron wants it. There's really no other way to verify the legitimacy of your putter. Good luck.

EDIT: Fyi... you will probably be required to send it in for the verification.

[T-Bone84]

Did someone just cut off the hosel and weld into the cavity? I would say that's almost certainly not legit.

[PlayMore]

I have never seen anything like it...

[NickSalazar]

Wouldn't supprise me if it was legit. I've seen a few older Scotty's with this neck location but the weld don't look to good on this one so it has me thinking it could have once been fully legit then someone re positioned the neck and welded it up themselfs.

[mcmanus]

what makes you so sure that it is legit did it come with a COA from the custom shop??

To me it looks too rough to even be a early scotty.. his early "Scott Cameron" hand mades were never that rough looking from what I have seen.

I am also almost positive that on his hand mades he never simply "Stamps" Scotty Cameron on it.. it's usually weld stamped.. This thing doesn't look even a bit authentic to me.

The reason I felt it was legit is because it came from an LPGA tour winner

No, it was never cut off the hosel, it was originally welded into the cavity.

[ckay]

It's real.

Yes, I am certainly going to send it in, but I just found it this morning, and I am real curious.

[NickSalazar]

If I was you I'd post this on TCC and see what they have to say.

I've seen threads on this exact putter on THP before

[/quote]That's interesting, as it has been buried in a pile in an old basement for a decade plus

If that's the case send it in for COA they'll know!

Haha yep

 

Just so it's clear I'm not trying to rag your pickup. Sounds like sweet story (tour pickup) and I guarantee you someone on here or TCC can help you out with authentication. I would never send that back to Cameron though as you probably wouldn't get it back

[NickSalazar]

What would make you think cameron wouldn't give it back? That's called theft and I'm sure Scotty's shop don't break the law.

[malkin24]

Btw, the LPGA player who I got this from, won a single tournament in the early 90's, so the time frame fits. Has anyone ever seen that model Danny Edwards grip on a Cameron?

[NickSalazar]

I'm pretty sure most of the early handmades have that grip.

[Arafel]

It's real.....



a real POS.

I'd love to hear the story behind this one. Congrats on the find.

misleading thread title I guess ...

[/quote]It isn't my cup of tea, it has an exceptionally upright lie angle, which makes sense given who used it. She was tall.

[Arafel]

Wait..wait...wait....this isn't a joke?





This has to be a joke.

[/quote]Thanks, it is the most incredibly random find I've ever had, and it didn't cost me a dime. I am very excited, but obviously leary.

[/quote]Nope, not a joke. Found a putter, not sure of its authenticity, thought somebody here might know. Thats all

[bgthunder]

Who is the LPGA player? Missie "Michelle" Berteotti?
