Scotty Cameron adds Dual Balance to Newport and GoLo putters

New dual balance putters are aimed at those who anchor the putter to stop the butt end from moving

Scotty Cameron adds Dual Balance to Newport and GoLo putters

Two of Scotty Cameron’s most-popular, tour-proven models and shapes – Select Newport 2 and GoLo 7 – are now available with Dual Balance technology.

Scotty Cameron Dual Balance putters are counterbalanced designs, developed through extensive research and testing in the putter studio and on worldwide professional tours.
 
Cameron and his team, through two decades of high-speed video research with tour players, have found that the best putters in the world keep the butt end of the putter pointed to the same 1- to 2-inch circle in their midsection throughout the stroke. 
We’ve determined the best way to help golfers regain stability and control is through Dual Balance Dual Balance putters, with a 50-gram heavier head weight (400 grams total) and a 50-gram counterweight in the butt of the putter shaft, are specifically designed to help golfers replicate that stroke, without anchoring the club to the body.

“The purpose of anchoring a putter is to stop the butt end of the club from moving. Now that anchoring will be against the rules, we’ve determined the best way to help golfers regain that stability and control is through Dual Balance, by adding 50 grams to the shaft and balancing that with 50 grams in the head,” Cameron said. 

“It eliminates that tendency for many players to flip, push or lead the putter with their hands.

“Instead of stopping the butt end, we’re able to slow everything down. The counterweight in the shaft helps keep the butt stable and pointed at your belly. The additional head weight makes the putter slower and more lethargic without it feeling too heavy. 

“If you only add shaft weight, you actually end up robbing head weight, which makes the head quicker. So you need to balance that out.”

The proper length of a Dual Balance putter is three inches longer than a golfer’s conventional putter length.

The additional three inches provides stability while keeping the putter unanchored.

The larger diameter, 15-inch long Dual Balance Flat Front Winn grip is designed so golfers can grip down to place the shaft weight above the hands for a smoother, more stable stroke. 

Available: May 30th
SRP: £315
