Typing this as I watch the video...recently had a putting lesson and was recommended I switch to a blade after 20 years with a mallet. Wasn't in love with the feel of the 2018 Scotty with an insert but tried the 2020 Newport 2.5 @ 34" and loved it. Fortunate to get my hands on a 1/500 and one putted the last five holes last Saturday.

The new special select range hasn't come out in NZ yet but my wife brought me a Scotty for my 40th. I went with the Newport 2. Only played 9 holes with it and I love it. Feels so much nicer than my spider blade putter. I would never spend that kind of money myself but was a lovely present. I'm a high handicap golfer, will it make me hole more putts......no. but it looks and feels amazing

I'm a lefty, so my choice in Scotty Cameron Special Select is really limited. I can only chose between Special Select Newport 2 and Special Select Del Mar. I'm currently gaming a 2016 Select Newport 2, but would like to see if the Del Mar could add something (not extra strokes) to my putting - unfortunately none of the retailers in Denmark have the left handed version in shop.

After having a Quintic fitting session and tried Scotty C’s, Odyssey’s, Evenroll and lots more, I now have a SeeMore centre shafted putter with Stability shaft and Rosemary grip....NEVER been happier or holing more putts than before. I’ll also bet most people do not really know which style of putter is best for them with regards to their swing to create a more fluid repeatable stroke...so, yes, Scotty putters do look lovely but more important is to get correctly fitted by an independent fitter, not an affiliated one! You’ll never regret it and it’s about the cost of a dozen ProV1 balls!

A lot of people think these putters are expensive and there’s a lot of truth to that. You use your putter at least twice as often as your driver and it will last a lot longer. I bought my SC Studio Design 1.5 in 2002/3 (?). So whilst it was expensive it has lasted me almost two decades. The only reason I’m considering buying another is so that I can send it back to be refurbished and I can have a spare. SC putters are all milled rather than cast and in order to keep high quality control standards they are made in the US (rather than being manufactured in China for example, where the labour would be cheaper). Save up and treat yourself to one at Christmas; it will last you decades! The confidence and feel you get is irreplaceable.

Steve Johnson I play at Haddington GC, East Lothian, I was fitted for a Scotty Cameron late last year at Craigielaw GC where the Scottish Titleist National Fitting Centre is based and I got to try them out! I ended up buying a Phantom X8.5 through my pro, not on the day of the fitting! People will quite happily fork out £500 on a driver for 15 or so hits but not £300 on a putter for 30 or so(hopefully less) putts! I don’t smoke or drink and wanted to improve so made the sacrifice! It’s up to individuals to choose!

So I bought the Special Select Squareback 2. It was my first Scotty and my first “blade” putter. Although it’s actually a mid-mallet, to me it’s still a blade considering I’ve only played mallets. So after putting at work for a day, I just couldn’t get comfortable making a good strike. I’d imagine because I try to be straight back straight through and that stroke just didn’t work with that putters toe hang. So I sold it on eBay 😐, only took a 150$ hit though. Lesson learned, stick with a mallet and don’t get enticed by a pretty blade.

I understand that from a business point of view you have to keep reminding people to hit like, subscribe and bell icon for notifications etc. But how then do you release a video with such poor lighting, audio and in particular audio balance between the dialogue and the background music. I mean asking someone to subscribe should mean something. it should be a tradeoff for essentially such good content that subscribing is a no-brainer. Even as far as content, I wouldn't say this was any different to anyone else's. It was just an introduction to the Newport range dressed up in tech speak, not a review or a decent comparison. I got excited for a moment when you started talking about the different necks thinking that you would give us some valuable info about how one neck has more offset than another, and what does that do to the toe hang or the weighting. Perhaps i thought you would tell me what type of golfer would suit a model with a bigger sweet spot, and what the drawbacks were to features like plumbers neck. But you didnt go into anything like that. And then hammer the tag line like, subscribe and bell icon. Ive watched heaps of your videos, but this felt like the viewer wasn't respected, I'm sorry to say. If you want subscribers, re- introducing people to what putters there are in a line ain't the way to do it. You want subscribers to flock to your channel? Be like TXG and give some actual useful information that's different from everyone else. Give the viewer information that will guide purchasing. Your viewer wants to buy clubs and they want information that their golf retailer can't or won't tell them. They want info that will give them confidence in their purchase and not lead them to a mistake and buyer's regret. Anyone who provides that, especially if they are exclusive at it, is going to get all the subscribers they can handle. You dont even have to ask for it. They will subscribe because they trust you and because everyone else is doing a bang average job at it.
