Scotty Cameron Select Newport 2

New Features:

1. Most Notable Feature:

The new, updated Select Newport has a classic silver finish and a long neck. Also, Scotty thinned out the top line of the putter, this gives the you a better feel for the putt you’re about to hit. To give you even more feel and trust in the putter, Scotty wanted to make the sight line a little wider, deeper and darker. How can you miss with a putter that gives you that much alignment help?

2. Most Important Feature:

The new deep milled face on the Select Newport 2 is designed to give the player more feel. The way in which this putter is milled causes less material to make less contact with ball. This changes the sound and gives you more feel, while also making the ball roll smooth and true on your intended line. Also, the bottom of the putter has also been made little wider, with a solid base that gives you confidence to put the ball in the hole.

Opinion:

This putter is a very smooth, and feels great. On longer putts I seemed to always get the ball on the intended line and was hitting it very solid. This had to do with the sleek looking design and the new, improved alignment line.

Scotty Cameron GoLo 3

New Features:

1. Most Notable Feature:

The GoLo 3 is a combination of the popular DelMar putter, as well as the bigger GoLo 5 and 7. It is a smaller sized mallet making it similar to the size and shape of the DelMar. This head gets bigger at the toes/middle which gives you great feel if you are a player who is an open to a closed style putting motion. It also comes in the same color as the Select Newport 2.

2. Most Important Feature:

As for the most important feature of this putter, it has to be the weight. The heavy feel gives you great confidence when it comes to making any putt inside of 10 feet. The weight of this putter helps to generate a smoother tempo then the blade because you can feel the toe closing back to square at impact. Also, the GoLo series putters have a deeper grooved face, which will enhance the sound and feel once you make contact with the ball.

Opinion:

I am a big fan of the GoLo 3! The head fits perfectly with the type of putting stroke that I have and it felt like I simply couldn’t miss with this putter. On longer putts, it was very easy to get the right speed, but I did find it a little bit more difficult to get going on the right line. Putts within 10 feet on the other hand seemed unmissable with this putter. The weight helped me get the putter back to square at impact, thus causing putts to drop like flies!

Recommendation

I am mallet putter type of guy so, the GoLo 3 was the putter for me. I loved how it was a little bit heavier than the blade making speed not a problem to control. Even though the longer putts were a little harder to get on line, I was fine with that because you rarely make those longer putts, a tap in par works for me. The Select Newport 2 was just a little too light and thin, making distance control a problem, but the line always seemed to be right on point. Go try a few out for yourself, but I am telling you now the GoLo 3 does not disappoint!
