Just started a putter collection and bought my first SC.  I want to restore to original look and feel.  Have a pretty good understanding about getting the head done thru BOS but what about the original grip?

Here you go.

You can always go to Scotty Cameron's webpage and look up what the original grip was. It is clearly shown here:

https://www.scottycameron.com/archives/putters/1998/oil-can-classics/newport/

That grip is no longer sold by Scotty Cameron. 

You basically have 3 options.

  1. Send it back to Scotty Cameron to be restored and ask for them to put the original grip on it. 
  2. Hunt around for a similar grip, plenty out there. Or even look on ebay for the exact grip... maybe out there.
  3. Choose a grip you like. Could be a Scotty Cameron grip or could just be one you like.

I just bought 10 used Acushnet bullseye putters that need sresotoration on eBay.  I really enjoy working on bringing back the original finish. Brass is a very forgiving and easy metal to work with. Eventually I might start selling them but for now I enjoy the rewards of restoration. It is fun researching and reading the histories of these putters developers.

 I have developed my own "Putting Lab" in my office. I probably hit 100-200 putts daily. There's no question that has  improved my putting stroke and technique.

In terms of  the grips I have been changing the leather ones that have no company logos with a more modern rubber grip that I like. I am leaving the original Bullseye grips on  that are in decent shape. They definitely are not anything I would like to use. Too thin for me.

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
