i am an enthusiastic scotty cameron putter collector, however im just starting my collection and have a couple questions with regards to the "prototype putters". How many of them are made, is it 1/1 or like 1/100? Is the value ruined if i putt with them? Finally, where can i purchase one besides ebay.

I don't think you can get any prototype putters except eBay, unless you have a friend who is a Tour Rep, because most of the Prototype putters are made for and designed by tour players, and because of this same reason I believe that they are generally 1/1. Although you can get replicas of the prototypes, except these obviously won't be the same. You can get limited release Scotty's through some shops, like I almost picked up a Button Back Newport, but I stroked the Red X5 better, and I'm not into the putter collecting yet, well not special ones, I collect normal retail ones though.

Here's what I play:

Titleist 907 D2 10.5* UST ProForce V2 76-S | Titleist 906F4 18.5* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist 585H 21* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist ZB 4-PW TTDG S300 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 54.10 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 60.08 | Scotty Cameron Red X5 33" |

prototypes are not 1/1... in terms of the production that would be a task to find out the exact number made.

there are handmade versions such as the 009 and special GSS putters but these are very close to OTR models. you should include a center shafted newport in your collection if you're looking for a proto model. I don't believe scotty has released a proto that has never made production in a while. You could always go with tour models instread of protos

    • Day 4 (12 Mar 26) - nine hole session with grandson - played along side him from most fwd tees with seven  club setup -D,7w, 5,7,9,55° and putter.  Worked with him on his green side approach play.  Had some great shot making opportunities on my own, best part was seeing him make solid swings.

    • They sure do. 158 with an 8 iron is on the high end for me
    • Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.
