I had a newport 2.5 and didnt like it! switched to a newport 2 studio stainless the old version not the studio style with 350 gram head weight and love it !
closest off the rack to tigers putter you can get I'm currently removing the sight line and all the other stampings to give it the clean look , going to replace it with just the dot !

Everardo,

I've been putter shopping and have been trying to find a Cameron Stainless Newport 2 to try (not the current Studio Style). Can you compare how your Stainless Newport 2 feels compared to either the Detour, Studio Style or current TM Rossa putters? (The aforementioned three putters are the only ones I have been able to try out.)

I realize putters are a personal feel thing, but can't get my hands on one to feel.

Thanks,

catfell

I bought a Domino™ Putter from Domino Golf Inc. through my golf instructor. Once I tried one of those demo Domino™ Putters (different lengths with different weight settings) that my instructor had, I knew I had to have one of my own. Having played tennis more than thirty years of my life, I am accustomed to having a certain feel when hitting a tennis ball with my racquet. I would equate the feel of my Domino™ Putter and a golf ball with hitting a tennis ball right in the "sweet spot" with my racquet. It just feels GOOD!

I am honestly considering getting another Domino™ Putter (a left-handed one to go with my right-handed one) because I intend to play both right-handed and left-handed this next year. Wierd huh? The inventor of the Domino™ Putter is Steve MacIlraith. He is an extremely nice guy and is extremely knowledgeable about golf. We've discussed my ambitious desire to play left-handed.

Honestly, my putter is my most treasured club in my bag! I love it!

is it the dot or the line? dot like the circa or line like the newports?

Mine has the sight line.

Everardo,

I haven't tried the Rossa's in a while so sorry I can't help you there. I can tell you the Yes! Abbie I've been using sounds a little 'clickier' than my Scotty's but I attribute this to no inserts on the face. With the SC's, I can tell you my Detour feels the softest to me but I also attribute that to more weight behind it. The SS Newport 2 I have is a bit firmer while my JAT and Napa are the most solid feeling (No insert in face though).

Hope that helps.

I had the pleasure of playing with Steve at the Olympic club and can honestly say that he's a great guy and without doubt the best putter I have seen in 30 years of playing golf.

As for production models - Ping REDWOOD series or Cleveland CLASSIC series - each very very nice putters.      I personally am a sucker for a putter face with raised tool marks which are found on each.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
    • No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously?? 
    • I don't think that is true at all. That is off-topic here, I think.
