Offered here is an early 1990s Scott (not Scotty) Cameron hand made putter that was made for former PGA Tour player Tommy Armour III.

Vog says: When Scotty started working the PGA Tour to get putters in play (1990-1991) they were all made by hand, and hand stamped "Scott Cameron". Scotty would craft the head using a Bridgeport vertical mill and shaped the finer points and lines via the grinding/buffing wheel. Eventually, he started making more putters that he designed, but were milled on a CNC (Computer Numerically Controlled) milling machine, which had two benefits: each head was perfectly milled, and he did not have to spend time doing the basic milling. Scotty has estimated he made about 600 handmade putters mostly during the 1990-1996 time frame. My third Cameron putter in 1993 was a used Scott Cameron that I acquired in June of that year, and I have been pursuing them since. Admittedly today's player would rather use a high tech, high MOI mallet, or if they're "old school" they might choose one of Scotty more modern blade designs like the 009 or 009-M. That said, Scotty's not going to make any more hand made putters, just like Ferrari isn't going to make any more 246 Dinos or Porsche any additional 356 Cabriolets. Even though today's Ferraris and Porsches blow away these vintage cars, there are still plenty of collectors who want-and still drive-these classics. That's how I look at Scott Cameron hand made putters.

Condition: Very good, 9 of 10, used only slightly after being restored by the Cameron studio. Includes a green NOS Cameron Milled Putters cover. 35"
