Scotty Cameron Phantom X 11 Putter

High MOI Putter

The Phantom X 11 is one of the bigger heads in Scotty Cameron's 2023 Phantom lineup, and it plays exactly like a putter built for stability. This is a large mallet with a wide, deep footprint, the kind of shape that resists twisting when you catch a putt slightly off center. If your misses tend to come from the heel or toe rather than a bad read, the extra MOI here does real work for you.

Cameron builds the Phantom X 11 as a multi-material head, pairing a 303 stainless steel body with lighter aluminum components so weight can be pushed out toward the perimeter and back. That is the whole point of a high MOI mallet: move mass away from the center so the face stays square through impact. The result is a putter that feels planted and quiet at address, not nervous.

It is face balanced, which tells you most of what you need to know about who should be swinging it. A face-balanced head wants to move straight back and straight through. If that matches your stroke, the Phantom X 11 rewards it. If you have a lot of arc and rotation in your putting, this is not the head that flatters you, and Cameron makes other Phantom models that fit that better.

Design

The look is clean for a mallet this size. A single sightline runs down the flange to frame the ball, and the wide body gives your eyes a big, stable platform to aim over. Scotty Cameron keeps the milled steel face here, so the feel is firm and responsive rather than soft and muted, with that solid click most Cameron players know and expect. Weight is the story underneath. The steel-and-aluminum construction lets Cameron redistribute mass low and to the perimeter, and the sole carries interchangeable weights so the head can be tuned to different length and swing weight preferences. That combination is what pushes the MOI up and keeps off-center strikes from leaking speed and starting line.

Who It's For

• You have a straight-back, straight-through stroke and want a face-balanced head that matches it
• Your bad putts come from missing the center of the face, not from misreading the green, so the high forgiveness pays off
• You want a large mallet with a bold sightline that makes aiming simple and repeatable
• You like a firmer, milled-steel feel and the classic Cameron sound at impact
• You are willing to pay Scotty Cameron money for build quality and the option to fine-tune sole weights

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Scotty Cameron Phantom X 11 good for a straight putting stroke?

Yes. It is face balanced, which means the face wants to stay square through a straight-back, straight-through motion. That is the stroke this head fits best. If you putt with a strong arc, a toe-hang Phantom model will suit you more.

How forgiving is the Phantom X 11 on off-center hits?

Very. It is one of the larger, higher-MOI heads in the Phantom range, built with a steel body and lighter aluminum parts so weight sits low and out toward the perimeter. That keeps the face from twisting when you miss the center, so your speed and start line hold up better on mishits.

What does the Phantom X 11 feel like at impact?

Firm and responsive. Cameron uses a milled steel face, so you get a solid, slightly clicky feel and sound rather than the soft, insert-style feedback some mallets have. Most golfers who like Scotty Cameron putters like exactly this feel.

Can you adjust the weights on the Phantom X 11?

Yes. The sole carries interchangeable weights, so the head can be tuned to match your putter length and the swing weight you prefer. It is a small adjustment, but it lets you dial in the feel rather than accepting a fixed head weight.

Who should skip the Phantom X 11?

Players with a heavily arced stroke, since a face-balanced mallet fights the rotation you naturally put into the putter. Golfers who prefer a compact blade or a softer insert feel will also be happier elsewhere. And if a premium price tag is a dealbreaker, Cameron is at the top end of the market.
