Scotty Cameron Releasing New California Series of Putters


Scotty-Cameron-California-Putters CHASKA, Minn. — Putter guru Scotty Cameron is set to release a new line of Titleist putters, the California Series, at the end of September. On Tuesday at the PGA Championship, many pros got their first look at the new flatsticks. Rod Pampling and Darren Clarke immediately requested that models be made to their specifications and planned to try one on the practice green here at Hazeltine National Golf Club.

There are four models of California putters, each named for a town. From the top, they are Coronado, Monterey, Sonoma and Del Mar.

The most noticeable feature is the new finish. Cameron refers to it as "Honey Dipped." The gold tone is created when the stainless steel heads go through a special heating process. Depending on the light, the California putters show flashes of pink and purple too.

When I spoke with Cameron on the range at Hazeltine Tuesday, he made it very clear that the look of the putters was very important. "I want it [the look at address] to be flowing, because if anything gets stuck or looks sharp, your eye goes to it," he said. "That makes the putter look like a brick on the ground."

Two other subtle things help to keep the look of the putters clean. First, there are no steps in the shaft of the California putters. Second, the decorative shaft band has been placed on the back of the shaft near the handle. These details are designed to make it easier for your eyes to concentrate on the ball and your line at address.

While he refers to the putters as "old world classic," there is at least one modern feature built into the new putters. On the sole of each California model are two 10-gram weight screws. Like the screws used in the Studio Select putters, these screws are not designed to be removed or adjusted by the golfer. However, via custom order, they can be changed to create heavier versions of the putter using the same head.

The Coronado is a classic blade putter with two steps in the back flange area. It features a single alignment dot on the top and a round neck. The Monterey is a classic heel-toe weighted, Anser-style blade with a plumber's neck and a single-line alignment aid. The Sonoma also features a plumber's neck and a single alignment line, but it has a rounded back flange and slightly longer face. The Del Mar has a larger, circular back flange with a high toe area.

When they are released in late September, the California Series putters will retail for about $299.

don't be upset. Putters are all about feel, so yours might be better for you than the new ones as long as you picked out the one that felt perfect to you.

I really like the fact that it says Titleist instead of Cameron and I love the overall clean appearance of the putter.

You're going to have a long life and no money if that's the way you think about everything you buy. On the other hand every manufacturing company in America will love you.

Hopefully I can get one in 33" with 20g weights. If anyone finds more detailed pics of the sole/face and such please post!

[I KyotE I]

that first one puts a hinder on my thoughts of getting the...2.6?... I think it is. The one with the center shaft. I love that style as well. Tough choice.

[DavidFehertysBike]

They look like verisons of previous Cameron models with just a different finish and the weight screws.

[deronsizemore]

Wouldn't mind giving the Coronado and the Monterey a test run.

I love the Delmar (bottom one) it sets up similar to the Cameron J.A.T that sergio putted with. Very simple look which is kinda nice

[mtsalmela80]

Whats the point if it doesnt say Scotty Cameron on it?

[bogeyhitter25]

[YogiTKE]

They do say Scotty Cameron.....on the face of the putters, on the grip, and on the headcover.

[Golfaway]

Beautiful. One day I will get one of these.
