I keep hearing toe hang, but what exactly is that?

When you balance the putter by the shaft, one of two things can happen:

1) the face remains perfectly flat (horizontal). That's face balanced. 2) the toe "hangs" down. That's "toe hang." The amount varies. I tend to prefer a putter with a moderate to good amount of toe hang.

Say the putter is flat on the ground, toe hang is when the toe is curving upwards?

I'd call that a toe curl. Not to be confused with on that has a crease. ie: Camel toe.

I think it looks bigger on the website than it does in real life. Probably just a little bit bigger than the Red X.

Doesn't look particularly innovative or different to other mallets I have seen before. If I was going to get a Cameron it probably wouldn't be this one-unless it putted superbly. On looks it doesn't stand out for me. There seems to be such a fuss about Cameron putters and they seem very expensive, when in my opinion there are other options every bit as good. Having said that I haven't used them enough to really say that with any confidence-peolple who swear by them-What is it about Cameron putters that is so different/better than Odyssey/Ping/Rife etc-is it feel, look, customer service, name-what is it?

must agree...that thing looks terrible...I hope it at least rolls the ball well!

Well that's what it comes down to for everyone. Even Phil putted with the Futura for awhile. The Craz-E had some followers... etc. If it putts well, it putts well, and that's all that matters.

I'm looking forward to giving it a try. I've always liked mallets. Most just don't have enough toe hang for me, and I suspect this may be the reason I don't quite like this one.

This putter, along with many of the recent SC creations seem to be a real departure from what I've always thought SC did best - copy someone elses design and make it better looking. I LOVE my SC, but I don't care for most of their new stuff.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
