Scotty Cameron Super Select Newport 2 Putter

Blade Putter

The Newport 2 is the putter you've seen in more winner's bags than you can count, and the 2024 Super Select version is Scotty Cameron's take on getting a classic right for modern greens. This is a blade, plain and simple. No wings, no big aluminum insert, no alignment shapes to hide behind. If you want a putter that rewards a good stroke and gently punishes a lazy one, this is it.

Scotty built the Super Select line around a stainless steel body with strategically placed tungsten weights in the sole, which lets him keep the head compact while still hitting a real MOI target. The result feels stable through impact without turning into a mallet. The face is deep milled from 303 stainless, so the sound is that firm, muted click Cameron loyalists know by feel in the dark.

This version leans slightly more forgiving than older Newport 2 models, but make no mistake about what it is. It's a shotmaker's blade with full toe hang, and it wants a player who releases the putter through the ball on an arc. Set it up expecting a set-and-forget mallet and you'll fight it. Match it to the right stroke and it's about as good as a blade gets.

Design

The head is a heel-toe weighted blade with a clean topline, a single milling detail, and no sightline dots or wings to frame the ball. Tungsten sole weights sit at the heel and toe, pulling mass to the perimeter so off-center strikes hold their line better than the compact shape suggests. The neck is a plumbing neck that produces full toe hang, which points the toe straight down when you balance the shaft on your finger. Full toe hang is the design decision that defines who should play this. It works with a stroke that opens on the backswing and closes through impact, the natural arc most better players have. The deep face milling controls both feel and speed off the face, and the matte finish cuts glare at address. Everything here is built to disappear behind the ball and let your hands do the work.

Who It's For

• You have a noticeable arc in your stroke, opening and closing the face rather than moving it straight back and through.
• You trust your own aim and don't want or need alignment lines cluttering the top of the head.
• You're a mid to low handicap player who values feel and feedback over maximum forgiveness.
• You want a compact blade that still holds its line reasonably well on slight mishits thanks to the tungsten sole weighting.
• You already lean toward classic shapes and would rather adjust your stroke to the putter than the other way around.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Newport 2 toe hang or face balanced?

Full toe hang. When you balance the shaft across your finger, the toe points straight at the ground. That makes it a match for an arcing stroke, not a straight-back-straight-through one. If your stroke is dead straight, a face balanced or slight toe hang putter will suit you better.

What's the difference between the Newport and the Newport 2?

The Newport 2 has a small flange behind the face and sits a touch larger and more square at address than the original Newport, which is a thinner, more traditional blade. Both share the same DNA, but the Newport 2 gives you a bit more visual real estate and slightly more forgiveness, which is why it's the more popular of the two.

Does this putter have an alignment line?

No sightline or alignment dots on this configuration. You aim it off the shape of the head and the topline. Some golfers love the clean look and aim better without a line telling them where to point. If you rely on a sightline to get set, this isn't the easiest putter to aim.

What makes the Super Select version different from older Newport 2 models?

Scotty added tungsten sole weights positioned at the heel and toe, which raises the MOI and stability without making the head bigger. Older Newport 2 putters relied more on the steel body alone. The Super Select also uses a redesigned deep milled face for feel and speed control, plus a lighter overall build option depending on the setup.

Is the Newport 2 too much putter for a higher handicapper?

It can be. This is a feel-first blade with modest forgiveness, so a golfer who mishits putts across the face regularly will lose more distance control than they would with a mallet. If your stroke arcs and you make solid contact most of the time, a higher handicapper can absolutely play it. If contact and speed are your weak points, a larger mallet will save you more strokes.
