What's your green routine?

Some people love it, others hate it, but the truth is putting is the most important part of your game.

There are a lot of factors to consider when you’re weighing up a putt. What’s your approach? Do you have any pre-putt routines that help you out? Walking around the hole to see the line from every angle? Maybe bending down to better make out the slopes on the green?

If you’re a solid putter, why do you think that is? Do you have your pre-shot routine all planned out? Today we want to walk you through how the latest Scotty Cameron golf putters improve your ball striking at every stage of your putt.

Aiding your alignment

From the moment the green comes into view, you get a good idea of how the angles and slopes are looking. If it’s a green you’re familiar with, you’ll have a naturally pre-conceived idea of which areas are faster than others.

When you approach the green, you may well be fixated on the place your ball has come to rest, and the line you now have between the ball and the hole. You may be tempted to walk around the hole to study the line of the upcoming putt from every angle. We all have a whole routine underway ahead of actually setting up to your ball.

Naturally, one of the most important components of any successful putt is ensuring your clubface is correctly lined up with the path to the hole. It can be deceptively easy to line yourself up, practice your feel in your practice putt, and return to the ball a little off-center.

Modern golf putters have alignment aids on top of the clubhead that helps you make sure you’re hitting the ball with the middle of the clubface. This feature is very reassuring when making sure you’re aiming on the right line.

Striking the ball smoothly

It goes without saying that to perform the feat of getting the ball into the hole from dozens of yards away, you’re going to need to make perfect contact with the ball. The best contact comes from getting the pace and power just right, and striking the ball with a smooth, even stroke.

If you jab at the ball, you may hit the ball short and offline, and if you push too hard, it’s going to run past the hole. Being comfortably at ease and swinging the putter an equal distance back and forth will ensure you strike the ball smoothly.

Post-putt feel

Putting is all about feel, and feel can be hard to describe. But when you head to the practice green and start warming up your short-game, you’ll know exactly what we’re on about. As you putt through the ball, you’re judging a sense of feel as you anticipate where the ball will come to rest.

The more you putt, the more you hone your feel and the better at putting you become. The latest Scotty Cameron golf putters are crafted to ensure you quickly adapt to the club’s soft feel, allowing you to get into the swing of things and quickly hit your stride.

Models in the range

We’re all different golfers, in ability and in how we approach the ball. Scotty Cameron has seven distinct models in the Phantom range, and each will be geared towards a certain type of player.

When you think Scotty Cameron, you think of high-quality putters. Scotty Cameron clubs have made their way into the bags of some of the best players on tour, and when you take a look under the hood at the tech inside, it’s clear to see why.

The models in the Phantom range have undergone a face-milling process that will give your putts a purely consistent roll. When you pick one up and study the face, you’ll appreciate how finely cut the groove pattern is. The stainless-steel construction feels solid, and the putters offer a reliable performance with each stroke.

As we’ve mentioned above, it’s really important that you get the alignment correct for your upcoming shot. The Phantom putters all have central alignment cues on top of the clubhead so you’ll know immediately where to set the club to the ball. From dots to straight horizontal lines, these alignment cues vary from model to model.
