Very good, safe travels.

That era of Scotty, and really all putters, felt so much more like you were choosing a putter that felt right to you, not a putter that had the latest tech. There’s something to that. I remember thinking as soon as the first Spider came out that putters had entered a different phase, but I never imagined it would get to the point of LAB, etc

I don't collect, but I have an Oil Can Laguna that's pretty beautiful. They don't make them like that anymore. Got it for a steal on eBay, probably because the seller misspelled "Laguna" as "Luguna."

Everyone using old Scotty Camerons is speaking to my soul. I kept an old 2011 California Del Mar in my bag for about a decade, but the past few years have switched primarily to a Newport 2.

There’s no doubt Scotty’s early putters had more of a handcrafted feel in than they do today. Recent models have a more overtly machine-made aesthetic, especially the ones with inserts or multi-material construction. There’s an art in that, as well, but I also prefer his earlier work.

Picked up a 2012 California Monterey 1.5 from eBay in high school and will never get rid of it. Love the slanted flair neck.

I was also thinking how Scotty Cameron‘s old putters from the late 90s to about 2005 were so much cooler than the things that they make today. Those putters back then were borderline pieces of art.

I have a 2003 Scotty Studio Stainless Newport 2 that I’ve had since 2003. I also got my dad a 1998 Scotty Cameron Newport Oil Can Classics. I picked it up off eBay and it was all beaten up so I sent it to Scotty Cameron to get refurbished and the thing looks truly beautiful. The only sad part is that they don’t do the oil can finish anymore which I think is a shame. Nonetheless, they refinished it in the matte black finishing, and it looks great.

Oooh nice yeah tetherow is a good idea for staying at! Nice i'll look into the pricing on that.
