Matt Saternus Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Thanks for the pic. IMO: I do not like the way "Scotty Cameron" is engraved on the bumpers and I think the 3 dots look very bad in that half-ovalish cavity.

I can appreciate the homage, but I wouldn't find that engraving pleasing even if it said "Matt Saternus." Ok, false, I would like that, but you get my point.

You're a center shaft guy, Sactown? I bet LaMont could do some real neat stuff to one of those, it's a giant canvas.

I am a sucker for a CS mallet. So close to grabbing the Betti BC one last year, but the LOL would have none of that. I like the feel of the Al Kombi, but it is just a little big for my eye and I like CS. Stainless CS would probably make me dig up some trade-ins to the shop...

HoosierGolfer Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 To each his own, but I think most of the SC putters from the past four or five years just look so cheap.

I like these two though, seemingly much more than the other recent ones.

You want to play a ping at the master's anyway so they will make you a solid gold one anyway. btw, did anyone see if they made one for cabrerra's nasty insert ping last year?

Solid gold sounds nice but in reality most have been done gold plated by Karsten. but when John took over now their done in Solid Gold! I'm sure thru the 70's,80's and 90's Ping probably easily has the most majors. Does anyone know? That's a good trivia question don't you think?

Matt Saternus Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 The Ping website says gold-plated. It also says there at 47 major winners, including all 4 from 1988. Pretty cool. Follow me on Twitter: @MattSaternus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
