Tiger's New Putter



Tell us what you think. Will a new putter help cure Tiger's putting woes?

Either way, Tiger ditched his Scott Cameron Newport 2 (a putter he has used for more than 11 years) in favor of the Nike Method putter. Which, speaking of, closely resembles the Newport 2, with exception to the putterface. The Method has "polymetal groove tech" that according to Nike, helps promote a faster, truer roll.

Tiger isn't a fan of slower greens like they have this week at St Andrews, so he made the switch to the Method (model #001, by the way) to help manage the long, sometimes ridiculously long, putts that golfers face out on those greens. The Method also happens to be the same putter Stewart Cink used last year to with the Open Championship. Hmmm...

And yes, you can buy one for about $250 bucks. See it right HERE.

From Golfsmith.com:
The Scotty Cameron California Putter has a classic design with modern weighting. This club provides clean aesthetics while offering better balance and higher inertia for a solid feel. Select Weight Technology offers greater choices for length and weight to enhance performance for all types of players. Milled from soft, 303 stainless steel, the California putter has a soft sound and feel that promotes precise distance control. A honey-dipped finish provides a deep, rich non-glare appearance while the stepless steel shaft provides a clean, uninterrupted look at the ball in the address position as well as promoting better putter head feel throughout the stroke. The black Cameron Tour grip creates a soft, controlled feel for precise feedback.

Additional Features:

  • Draft Sole Design: Keeps the putter square in the playing position for proper alignment
  • High-Toe Profile: Aids alignment and eliminates the tendency to raise the toe at address causing a player to aim the putter to the left of the target
Models:
  • Monterrey- A double-step flange with a pocket and plumbing neck
  • Coronado- A double-step flange with a flow neck
  • Sonoma- A compact mallet with a plumbing neck
  • Del Mar- A mid mallet with a flow neck
