In short
The Scotty Cameron Select Squareback (2019) is a mallet putter built for stability and easier alignment. It has mid toe hang, with a built-in alignment aid.
The Select Squareback lands in an odd spot in Scotty Cameron's lineup, and that's exactly what makes it interesting. It's a mallet, but it doesn't act like one. Where most mallets from 2019 chased maximum forgiveness with face-balanced necks, the Squareback keeps a mid toe hang and a compact head that a blade player can actually stomach.
This is the putter for someone who loves the feel and heritage of a Newport but wants a little more stability behind the ball. The squared-off back gives you a clean frame to aim with, and the single sightline runs straight through it. Cameron built this out of 303 stainless steel with a 6061 aluminum sole plate, which is the trick that lets the head stay small while still parking weight low and toward the perimeter.
At its 2019 release it sat in the Select family alongside the Newport and Fastback shapes, and it carries the same milled face and firm-but-not-clicky feel those models are known for. It won't hold your hand the way a big high-MOI mallet does. What it does is bridge the gap between blade and mallet without asking you to change your stroke.
The construction is the whole story here. The main body and the two flanges that form the squared back are milled from 303 stainless steel, and a 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum plate sits in the sole. Aluminum weighs a fraction of steel, so using it in the sole frees up mass that Cameron then relocates to the heel and toe as customizable weights. That's how a head this compact still behaves like a mallet through impact. The mid toe hang is the detail people miss. Face-balanced or near-face-balanced necks dominate the mallet category, but the Squareback hangs the toe partway down, which matches a stroke that arcs slightly rather than moving dead straight. A single sightline sits on top of the squared rear section, giving you a longer aiming reference than a blade offers without the busy alignment graphics you'd find on a game-improvement mallet. The face is deep-milled for a soft, muted response off Cameron's usual firmer stainless.
Scotty Cameron putters are CNC milled from a single block of steel in Carlsbad, California. The attention to detail in weight distribution, sole geometry, and face milling creates a feel that's considered the benchmark in professional golf.
