Which Putter?

[FlopShotArtist]

I'm in a d.mn bind here, I made my mind up on the Scotty but it just keeps coming back! aaaaghghhhh

I can get the Sabertooth NEW for $140, and a Scotty Cameron Newport 2 Pro Platinum from scooterguitar (on these forums) for $150 in pretty good condition.

I'd say that you should go with the Sabertooth. I've demoed it. It's insane.

The sabertooth feels so much better than the scotty. I've played them side by side and the sabertooth just has so much power behind it its ridiculous.

I would personally go with the Scotty, I couldnt be happier with my Scotty. They are truely amazing putters and in my opinion nothing comes close to a Scotty in terms of feel.

[BeaSt]

what model scotty cameron is it? i mean i know its a newport 2, but which one?

studio select, stuio style, etc..

[GaijinGolfer]

all the way. Those Sabertooths look too weird and there is nothing like the feel of a Scotty Cameron.
The Cameron is going to hold its value better too. You could play the Cameron for a few years and sell it for what you paid for it, I dont think you could say the same about the Sabretooth.

I don't like how the sabertooth looks, and the insert makes long putts hard to judge distance.
Scotty Camerons are crafted better and are pure feeling machines.
I just got a studio select, and I have only played two rounds with it, but I have already adjusted, it is worth the money, and in your case for an extra $10. Go with the scotty.

Go with the Sabertooth.
Make a putt with the Scotty and you'll feel, "I was supposed to make that."
Make a putt with the Sabertooth and you'll feel, "wow, that was a great putt I just made."

I really feel like everybody who says scotty hasn't even touched a sabertooth.

It feels amazing. I've dropped so many putts with my sabertooth. People say you can't beat a scotty, but the differences are minimal. It's all in the eye of the beholder. I feel great pulling out my "kitty". I was golfing with some friends the other day and they said they were intimidated by my putter.

No idea where you're getting this. Long putts are easy as hell with the sabertooth. I barely to have to swing the monster.

sabertooth, all the way.

You probably already know this, but the choice of putter should always come down to feel. Anyway, I think it's helpful to know some of the design features of the Sabertooth. It's an offset putter and Odyssey distributed a lot of the weight to the toe so that you'll make straighter putts. The Sabertooth also has a nice design feature which helps with alignment issues, i.e. the two protruding bars behind the sweet spot. I like this feature both on this putter and others like it since it allows you to visualize to "train tracks" to the target.

As for the Scotty Cameron, there really isn't that much that I have to say about it.

Go try both out before you commit. Find out which one feels and fits you better. Don't regret it by not trying both.

I really like the Sabertooth.

Looks weird, feels great... putts like a dream. Long putts are a breeze.

Friends can't believe the feel when they test it out.

My first scramble I dropped 3 putts of 32, 45, and 27 feet. Great confidence builder! My partners couldn't believe I was the same golfer.

It's making a difference in my game.

The one you like the best. It's a waste of your time to have created a poll for this type of question.

Go for Scotty, its really really good putter. But hey, im just one titleist fan speaking
