Hello,

Im new to the site.  I just picked up this Scotty Cameron and was wondering if there is anything I can do on my own to clean it up a little. I know you can send them to the Cameron studio but I'd like to game with it a bit and save some money to maybe do that down the road.  I'm pretty handy and thought maybe I could try to clean it up myself though.  I plan on keeping this putter.  Always wanted a Cameron and got a super good price on it.  It came with a thick super stroke grip and I had them replace the grip with a new Scotty grip they had sitting in the shop.   

Can anyone ID the type of metal in this head? I've found ones very similar on the net but having a hard time exactly pinning it down.  I did read that there were some made with "carbon steel?" What are your thoughts?  I can't wait to game this putter.  Hopefully, it works out well.  

Thanks for your help, in advance.

I have a couple old Scotty Tei3 Newport and Newport longneck.  I sent my Newport to BOS refinishing and they put the original finish on it for around $100.  I can't believe how it came out...even my Golf hatin' wife was impressed.  Looked like new and it was beat up worse than what I got there.

Yours just looks like stainless steel.  Look on the BOS website, many finishes to choose from.

Turnaround time was about 2 weeks.  It'll cost extra if they have to pull the head so if u have the means to only send the head, that is the preferred way.

Definitely do it, best money spent.  I still have my Tei longneck to send unless I just sell it the way it is.

I know this shows the Newport but, same thing.  So it is Carbon Steel and has that oil can finish like my Tei has.  I thought it might have because both my putters have/had that finish stripped off more or less and looked like Yours does now.

So I had then put the original oil can finish on mine.  It's nice but I have to keep a rag soaked in baby oil in a Ziploc bag with it so I can wipe it down after each round.  If it's wet out, don't UAE the head over, it'll rust...no fertilizer...sort of a pain in the ass finish...but it looks nice.

The longneck, if I do it, will have a black matte finish...something with less upkeep.

      I wonder if that is why my home course basically have no stakes now.  Not even markers.  It’s completely up to golfers to remember what is OB and hazard and how things used to be marked.     Even in tournaments, there is no marking and certain areas are played differently by different golfers who either don’t know better or use it to their advantage funny reading thru this with courses that actually have markers

      Electrolytes

      By Elmer · Posted

      Great post, thanks for the informaiton. I try to avoid adding salt to anything I eat. I tend to add pepper on to my meals as opposed to salt. And I am trying to eat as clean on possible. On golf day, I eat 3 eggs for breakfast (pepper NO salt) and a salad for lunch, with grilled chicken thigs (pepper, garlic, no salt). I have been trying to avoid processed food, but we all slip. I also should have mentioned that the electrolyte packet calls for mixing with 16 oz of water, however I mix in 32 oz of water, so I dilute the electrolyte powder.

      LIV Golf Now Closed?

      By imsys0042 · Posted

      So if I read the news correctly, the PIF will not fund LIV after this season.  LIV is trying to find new funding and a number of players there are now asking about getting back to the Tour.    I am very, very concerned that Taylor Gooch will not have a place where he can make a jackass out of himself soon
