What’s new? How much does it cost? And, how they perform? Max McVittie brings you the lowdown on the new Scotty Cameron Phantom putter models.

Heavily used on tour and highly regarded throughout golf as some of the finest putters on the market, Scotty Cameron rarely seems to disappoint. They have now added two new models to their Phantom line-up, the new and tour-inspired Phantom 5.2 and 7.2 putters.

These new releases are mallet putters and are joined by left-handed set ups of the Phantom 5, Phantom 11 and Phantom 11 Long Design models for the first time. Let’s take a closer look at the tech across the range…

The Technology

As well as featuring the popular wingback Phantom 5 and Phantom 7 mallet head shapes the all-new Scotty Cameron Phantom 5.2 and 7.2 putters are constructed to include an I-beam-style plumbing neck. This helps players with a more suitable alignment benefits and alternative toe flow properties.

The plumbing neck is a confidence-inspiring look for a lot of players and Scotty Cameron believe it is the natural evolution for the putters. Using the Phantom mallet head and this neck type has proved to be a popular combination on tour with the likes of Justin Thomas and Cameron Young putting this set up into play. This promotes a blade-like feel but with the forgiveness of a mallet head.

About the author

Max Mcvittie

A bit of a late bloomer to the game of golf, Max fell in love with the sport when he attended Saturday coaching sessions down at his local golf club after being inspired by friends and family members.

Max has remained a member of Eden Golf Club in Carlisle for a number of years now as he looks to get his handicap down into single figures. Most of his golfing career has been spent battling a permanent slice off the tee, which has led to some ugly rounds.

Having studied at the University of Sunderland, Max is starting out his dream career in sports journalism. During his time at university, he picked up valuable work experience at Reach PLC, BBC Radio Cumbria and GiveMeSport, whilst also getting work published in the Teesside Live. He also spent time working at a local weekly newspaper, Eskdale and Liddesdale Advertiser, as a general news reporter partially covering some local sport just north of the border in Langholm.

Max has just started his journey with the NCG working as the assistant equipment editor. He looks forwarded to reviewing the latest golf equipment, taking up an interest in reviews when buying his first golf club, a Cleveland RTX wedge.

With his bag not going under too many changes throughout the last few years, Max carries an M3 driver, Titleist GT3 Fairway Wood, M2 hybrid, a set of M2 irons, Callaway Jaws wedges and a TaylorMade Spider putter. And yes, Max is a bit of a self-proclaimed TaylorMade fan boy.
