Scotty Cameron Collector Troubles... Pls help

[newtogolf]

Cut the guy a break, he's new and wanted to come in here to brag a little about his SC collection.  At least he's not talking about his natural swing.

I totally disagree with you ...

about the "disguised" part.

Quite a brag post... If you were serious about keeping a pristine collection you wouldn't game them would you?

Did Cameron Frye's dad game his ferrari? No, he spent his days wiping it with a diaper.

FWIW I game a pro platinum del mar 3 i unsuspectingly bought used about 10 years ago... love it... think i am going to slap a mid sized winn grip on it...

Yes, but his priorities were so far out of whack that he didn't deserve such a fine automobile.

Well you are getting better responses from people at cameron collector cause they are people like you who for some reason like to spend outrageous amounts of money on multiple putters.  And yes they are a Scotty Cameron, but yes they are just a putter.  They work best at putting small round golf balls into a circular hole, so I would say yes that classifies them as a putter.

I have 6 putters, not collecting, but that is how many I have.  I know which one is my current gamer the last two years.  I feel like I cheat on it when I buy something shinier.

Some people collect putters and I guess a thread saying look at my SC collection would get more praise and less venom...

Some people collect weird stuff other than putters.

Personally my vote would be for a studio newport, any model.  I have one and I do like it, but My odyssey #9 makes more putts.

I'd like to see the collection, I think it's cool.

I am not the best golfer, about a double bogey average and i used to think a putter is a putter.. and why would anyone pay 300 plus dollars for a putter... but i have to admit that a nice putter does feel better than a cheaper one... do i think scotty's are the best? haven't made up my mind yet, but they are pretty nice, but so are some other putters out there that are going for simlar prices... btw why would you have so many putters anyways?? scotty or not... with that being said, if you want to choose a putter the guys here are right.. no one can tell you how to choose... i like blades better than those two ball putters cuz it just throws me off when i try to use them.. but i got a buddy that swears by them... you gotta use your clubs and figure out which one you like best...but with as many as you have that could take you a while...

The local Rodger Dunn usually has 30-50 used Scotty's.  Some are clean and as low as $99.00

The ones with the non-removable removable weights are around $180-200 used. (You can't buy replacement weights.)

Trade in value: $45-65

Life of a Scotty:

Stage 1: Best Putter on the Planet!

Stage 2: Maybe my putting will improve if a cut it down?

Stage 3. Maybe a Super Jumbo grip will help?

Stage 4: Used Rack $99.

Stage 5: Best $99 Putter on the Planet.

I just spit up my coffee, that was an awesome anology of the life of a SC putter.

I have two putters, one I use and a backup in case the usual "gamer" needs to be put in time-out.

[tristanhilton85]

With that many putters I doubt you'll be able to settle on a single gamer.  I would assume with that many you have at least a few different styles (mallets, blades, etc.) so I'd go with whatever suits your eye at the time.

I'm partial to the CIRCA 62 series especially the 2006 #3 . I like dark (especially charcoal and gun metal blue) treatments on carbon steel and simple tasteful lines. I would chose simply on my emotional response to how the putter looks and makes me feel (what tristanhiton85 already said).
