Kansas King Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 I've always understood a machined block of steel looks nice. However, I have never understood people's affection for collecting mass produced putters, most notably Scotty Camerons. I understand if someone collects one-off putters or special custom putters. However, I don't understand why people like collecting mass produced CNC machined putters. There is nothing unique about them, the premium for some of them is insane, and they really haven't changed for a few decades. I would be curious to hear why some of you collect putters like Scottys or Bettinardis. I'm legitimately trying to have some understanding.

cnosil Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Why do people collect anything? Every manufacturer has their take on a design. They feel different. They are made from different materials. Milling patterns. The shaping of the heel, toes, bumpers, hosels, inserts are different. So while to some putters look the same, there can be subtle differences.

Middler Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 I know people do, but I don’t know anyone personally who does. I insist of getting rid of any club(s) I replace, including putters. All but one of my 20 odd golf buddies use putters that look ancient, most are. But as noted above, we all have things we appreciate, and some are collectors too - nothing wrong with that.

JDHolmes Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 While I dont collect high dollar putters, i do currently own 22 putters (down from 45...ebay is my friend). Why?Because I like putters. One is from my first tournament prize winnings in 1984ish, Ray Cook mallet. A bunch of Pings, an STX because its unusual, several old putters that I couldnt sell due to age and technology.And finally, because I can. They dont eat anything and take up very little space. So when my current gamer misbehaves, I bring out a replacement.Sent from my SM-G950U using MyGolfSpy mobile app Shapotomous, PutterNut, Tyler86 and 6 others 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerospace_ray Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Certain putters fit my eye so to speak. I have certain style putters such as a TP Mills #12 or Wilson Staff 8802/MacGregor IMG that I grew up playing with. So I am attracted to those classics but also like what Bettanardi has done with face milling. I like the new Vault/Dalehead Ping Ansers models that have been released in last few years. I have many boutique putters not well known but they are new/modified versions of past brands/models with a touch of modern(face mill patterns or inserts). I don't know I guess collecting putters for me is like someone collecting certain art. It just fits ones eye. At least it does for me and brings back great memories from when I learned the game.Sent from my SM-N960U using MyGolfSpy mobile app PutterNut, NM01 and cnosil 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GolfSpy AFG Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Not knocking the hobby, to each his own, but I could never do it. After 1-2 rounds of bad putting it would be too tempting not to fiddle with something else rather than stick to the gamer (assuming properly fit) and fix the indian rather than the arrow. Only "extra" putter I have lying around is my Dad's...he passed away about 8 years ago, and had built himself a putter with Golfsmith components.

RobotDoctor Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 (edited) I have dabbled into collection putters. I have owned at least 50 putters, maybe approaching 60, during my 35 years of playing golf. Of course not all at one time. I have owned at various times 15 different Cameron putters, about half were limited edition putters and the rest were OTRs. I even owned the same limited edition Cameron two different times but now have no Cameron putters in my feeble collection. Many putters have come and gone as most were intended to be gamers but just didn't pan out. About the mid 2000s I decided to start collecting and built up a small Cameron collection (about 4 or 5 putters including 2 limited editions). I had 3 or 4 TP Mills putters, including 2 custom made putters from David Mills. I had a couple old Wilson putters (original 8813 and a refinished Designed by Arnold Palmer), a couple more Wilson putters (nothing of great value but sentimental to me), a couple Byron Morgan putters, then a few more Byrons, a couple/three old Cleveland Classic blades (Designed by Ben Crenshaw, Corey Pavin US Open, Designed by Cleveland Classic, and Designed by Cleveland Classic copper) and a Ping Zing 85025 black band putter. In total my "putter collection" amassed around 20-25 putters. Now I have two Byron Morgan putters, one TP Mills (David Mills custom), the Designed by Cleveland Classic copper. the two old Wilson sentimental putters and the Ping Zing. My interest in collecting putters has waned but I do collect persimmon woods, notably the classic MacGregors from the 1950s. These fit in my oversized PowerBilt display staff bag in my office, as does my Cleveland Classic copper blade and my TP Mills. I have a friend who is probably one of the world's preeminent collectors of Scott Cameron putters. His collection is simply one of the very best and he still collects. Why? Because he wants to. He has the means to collect so good for him. He is also one of the foremost authorities of Scotty Cameron putters there is, a true expert. Why do people collect anything? Nostalgia, appreciation to the craft, who knows. For those that collect putters, keep collecting. For those who don't enjoy what you do.

Popular Post Jmikecpa Posted April 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 1, 2021 Okay, I guess I finally will pipe up. As someone that had to build an 8 foot tall rack over the summer to hold all the putters I own I guess some can say I am a collector. I have all different manufacturers, models and anything from OTR putters to tour stuff, to customs....name a type of putter and I probably own it or have at one time in my life. I would guess I could play golf every day for at least 8 months of the year and never use the same putter for more than one round before I had to use one a second time. I could go about double that if I wanted to use a different putter cover for each round I played. So the question is why? Well, I have a golf room in my basement with a putting green and that is my relaxation room and I enjoy relaxing down there and rolling putts with a bunch of different putters, my way to relieve some stress after a long day of work. I also enjoy the hunt for new putters or if I find something that fits my eye it will go home with me. I have a putter that Rocco Mediate used at the 2004 Master's (https://golfweek.usatoday.com/2004/10/12/2004-newsmakers-mediates-putter-spurs-11th-hour-ad/) and to me that is cool. I also have putters made for Gil Morgan and Chip Beck that I was able to acquire as well as stuff from smaller makers that I was fitted for and made for me. It is how I choose to spend my disposable income and well it is fun for me. I don't want anyone to understand it or really couldn't care less if you do or don't. It is something that I enjoy (along with trap shooting and fast cars) that I will continue to do; well at least until my wife makes me start going to a support group or something.

russtopherb Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I've never understood collecting *anything*, to be honest. Don't see the value in spending money on something then putting it away on a shelf. My putter collection is currently at 4.

Hoyoymac Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Why do people collect stamps, coins, comic books, artwork, dolls, matchbooks, postcards, baseball cards, cars, shoes, cast iron pans, antiques, furniture, civil war memorabilia, Native American artifacts, old fishing rods and reels. You name it and there is probably someone somewhere that collects it. I believe that the reason people collect certain things is that it brings them some kind of joy, triggers nostalgia, and fills a hole in their life in some way that helps them to focus their attention intently on one aspect for a while. Could be it is their hobby. Maybe they are just hoarders or indiscriminate collectors. Perhaps they are serial collectors, meaning they collect one type of thing for a while before moving on to another category, etc. It could be they were very deprived early in life and after achieving some level of financial success they are making up for earlier deprivations. Maybe it is their business or they see the items as investments to be traded at a later date. Whatever the reason I am glad that there are some people out there that value and cherish these things. It preserves these items and encourages the artistry, craftsmanship and innovation of those that produce them. The only time I don’t like collectors is when they are bidding against me on the same item on EBay.

There’s lots of things that don’t make sense to people to spend money on. People spend thousands of dollars on retro jordan sneakers that they won’t wear ever. People spend tons of money to hang a painting on their wall from some artist. Different things have different meanings and values to different people. For some it’s the thrill of the chase for a certain object. I never get why people care or comment on what or how others spend their money. nkandra and cnosil 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaDawg Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 I have a collection of Scotty Cameron putters and quite a few of them have never been taken out of the original packaging. Why do I collect them because I have the resources. Several of them are valued 10 times the original cost. I guess everybody has their own thing, aerospace_ray and nkandra 2 Quote Driver: TSI3 - 10*, Hzrdus Smoke 6.0 Stiff Driver: Qi10 - 10.5*, Hzrdus Smoke RDX 6.0 Stiff 3 Wood: Qi10 - 15*, Graphite Design Tour AD DJ5 Stiff 5 Wood: Qi10 - Ventus TR Reg Irons: 5 - PW T150, with Nippon Zelos 7 Reg, 4 iron - U505 with Project X HZRDUS Black Stiff Wedges: Vokey SM 9 - 50*, 60* Standard Wedge Shafts Wedge: Milled Grind 3 MG3 56* S200 shaft Putter: Studio Select Newport 1.5 Putter: Phantom X 5.5 Ball: Pro V1x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
