Scotty Cameron SquareBack Newport Putter Review
Review Date: 08/04/09, By: Golf Putter Guide
The Square Back Newport is an Instant Tour Classic!The Squareback Newport that Scotty Cameron has turned out for Titleist has one purpose—to help Tour players and serious amateurs hunt the hole with precision. Originally released as a “Tour Only” experimental proto-type, this putter is now in wider production. It looks like a blade and performs like a mallet. Already popular among professionals like Jay Haas and Davis Love III, this stick has been modified to give carpet masters the tool they need to make putts from anywhere. And it’s working! Here’s why.
The traditionalists on Tour want a milled steel face that gives them immediate response on every putt. They want control, and the Squareback provides it. Pace and distance are easily mastered with a club face free of inserts, which some feel get in the way and reduced control. A modified mallet club head with plenty of heft produces excellent balance and promotes consistent motion in the stroke. The weight is distributed throughout to provide a large striking surface that offers plenty of forgiveness. Tour professionals like Ben Curtis rely on their Newports to deliver consistent performance they can trust when strokes and money are on the line. If there were a signature Scotty Cameron putter, this instant classic just might be it, because it incorporates many of the top design innovations he has brought to the market in the last two decades.
