Why we like it
- These familiar head and hosel styles received a bold upgrade in 2025 in the form of a carbon-steel face insert for a softer feel.
- The insert is fused to the 303 milled stainless-steel body and an aerospace-level vibration-damping adhesive.
- Although carbon steel can typically degrade, this insert uses a chemical process to protect the steel, enhance hardness and preserve feel.
- The face insert features a chain-link-style milling pattern developed with tour-player input to produce a softer feel and consistent speed off the face.
- New this year is the return of the iconic Santa Fe, which matches the body of the Newport with a slanted, curved, slightly offset hosel that Scotty Cameron calls a “jet neck.” It targets players with a flowing stroke.
- Top 5 in Performance, low-, middle-, high-handicaps
- Models: Newport, Newport Plus, Newport 2, Newport 2 Plus, Newport 2.5 Plus, Squareback, Squareback 2, Catalina, Santa Fe. Head weights: 345, 355, 365 grams. Lengths: 33-35 inches. Loft: 3.5 degrees

I enjoyed this putter because of the square head shape. Plus, the hole in the head helped with my alignment. It was very easy to stay on target because of the alignment aids. I felt like my hits were very soft and pure.
Chris

This is excellent. Almost like a pseudo-mallet because it has a very wide sole. A great putter for somebody who wants a blade style with a more substantial head. The ball rolls very cleanly and truly off the insert. It's got a good combination of feel and distance control.
Jack

Really clean-looking blade. This is definitely what you'd call a classic design. It's not quite a face-balanced blade—has a little toe hang—but it's close. The grooved insert gives it a soft impact. On fast greens, judging pace putts, I feel like this will give you a lot of forgiveness.
Daniel
34, Handicap 11

I'm a player who likes to have the ball die into the hole, and I found that every putt that I missed was past the hole by six inches to a foot. That made me feel like I was giving my putts more of a chance to go in. It had a little soft, subtle springiness to it.

Scotty is getting back to what they used to be, with some of the markings on their putters a little classier and more sophisticated. More special. I like that they give a ranges of blade putters within a single model, so you can select one that fits your eye.

Really rich-looking putter. I like the two-tone color, and it sits really flat at address. Perfect weight distribution throughout the club.
Jamie
53, Handicap 7

It's a beautiful satin finish that matches the plush, soft feel on every impact. Distance control couldn't be easier. It's so well balanced.
Alan
31, Handicap 3
2 years testing
Only one small micro-line on top, so if you're somebody who doesn't use a line when they putt, you'll like how this sets up. It really wants to move on an arc as well. So if you're a square-to-square mallet putter, this is not gonna be your flavor.
Thomas
61, Handicap 7
10+ years testing
I liked everything about the putter, from the soft feel and the quietness to the firm response. The dispersion was very narrow, both left and right and short and long. I'm sold on counterbalancing. It takes my little twitches out of the swing and lets the club do the work.
Andrew
40, Handicap 8
1 year testing
A very traditional feel and look but with a modern face. Has a little heaviness to the head, so with contact, it's about getting the head on plane. Toe hits are audibly different and feel a little bit weaker, which is expected.
Wesley
31, Handicap 4
3 years testing
Call it a big blade. It's a blade with a little more forgiveness as far as moment of inertia and room on the face to hit it.
Sean
54, Handicap 6
9 years testing
Perfect. I love the way the ball comes off the face. It's quiet when you hit it, and on long putts, you can lag them really, really close.
Aaron
45, Handicap 16
1 year testing
Very appealing. Soft and felt like it was bouncing off the face nicely. However, the lines and aggressive alignment aids were kinda messing with me. It did well on short and intermediate putts, and it didn't take a lot of effort to get it there on the longer ones.
Todd
63, Handicap 13
1 year testing
Delivers on nearly every aspect of expectations. The look is clean. The alignment is strong, and the subtleties of the finish on the putterhead reinforce the alignment lines. The sound is a resounding click, and the weight of the putter through the ball feels very balanced. Feels like this head is absolutely gonna come back to balance at the point of impact.
Matt
28, Handicap 7

You don't have to think about any lines behind it, very simple. This is a nice, soft insert, and it's very hard to miss it. So even your toe-y or heel-y putts find that insert and come off well.
Scott
38, Handicap 16
10+ years testing
The insert was just the right mix of soft and responsive, and it was so easy to get a feel for distance control. Seems like this putter checks every box for feel, roll, heft and looks.
BK
42, Handicap 2
10+ years testing
This putter is really suited for people who want to get out of a blade putter but aren't quite ready for a mallet. I think the bigger head helps you set up better, and it's pretty forgiving on mis-hits.
Megan
40, Handicap 0
2 years testing
This putter performed best for me on medium-range putts. It was sending the ball end over end with a smooth roll.
Anand
44, Handicap 6
10+ years testing
Really nice insert. You could feel the softness of the insert when you hit it. Translates to a really smooth roll. The only issue I had was on longer putts, it feels a little shaky when I take it back. Any wobble going back, and the ball's going to be misdirected or come up short.
Shane
37, Handicap 12
6 years testing
There's a great, balanced weight about it. There's just a pinch of head heaviness that kept my stroke in place, didn't allow it to wobble out of control, almost like I was a metronome. A firm, meaty impact with great feedback.
Wayne
61, Handicap 7
3 years testing
This is almost a hybrid between a blade and a mallet. The longer grip allowed me to grip down and feel like I have a little counterbalancing and can make pendulum swing. The ball came off with a crisp little tick and rolled out nicely. I feel like I could play this on a faster green and not power it past the hole. Dispersion was really tight.
Jin
31, Handicap 10
2 years testing
It has a bigger face and slightly wider back for a blade putter. Soft feel but firm enough so you know where you hit it. The consistency and speed it produces are something that I rarely see. Dispersion is also very tight.
Ryan
50, Handicap 10
8 years testing
Looks so good you won't be able to take your eyes off it. The milling is intricate, and the craftsmanship apparent. End-over-end rolls off the soft, pillowy face, running right on their lines. Mis-hits were covered up, but you could feel where they were mis-hit, allowing you to make corrections in the future. It was a top experience.
Matt
53, Handicap 11
4 years testing
Wonderful feel. It's soft and responsive in the hands. It does an excellent job of energy transfer and getting the ball rolling toward the hole. I found distance control particularly easy. My only concern is that I did have a pesky left miss with this club that I couldn't shake.
Alejandra
27, Handicap 6

Very trustworthy, ensures that you're not going to be three-putting. If anything, the distance was a little issue for me. Lag putts seem to all be going long.
Robert
29, Handicap +2

Ricky

Gary
38, Handicap 13

The milled face insert gives a luxurious kind of impact sound and feel. You smile hitting it, because it strikes such an appropriate balance, the way you feel about a firm handshake. The weighting and size of the back flange give it real stability, too.
Paul
64, Handicap 6
10+ years testing
A little larger head gave it the feeling of a mallet style. Where I found the putter excelled was in how light it was for its size. Was it on the firmer side? It was a little bit compared to others, but the lightness and the pop off the face equated to consistent strokes.
Peter
58, Handicap 8
10+ years testing
I love the extra width. It helps with alignment. The head sets up really well with a little bit of offset, and I love the finish. The ball comes off almost automatically, like it creates its own energy. It takes very little effort. The roll is a 100 percent predictable.
Ryan
47, Handicap 12

This club sets up extremely square. It gets your hands forward, almost requires you to drag the head through impact. You gotta get really good at green-reading, because this thing goes right where you want it.
Wei
56, Handicap 14
10+ years testing
Looks and feels like it's designed under the tightest of tolerances, that it's manufactured where every microgram of material is exactly where it's supposed to be. The putts feel flawless. Even when I put a flawed stroke on it, the results continue to be consistent and accurate. This is the putter I'd wanna have if I'm going into battle.

The classic Bettinardi milled shapes with their smooth lines are still here, but now the face has a new milling pattern to make your putts roll smoother.
The new face treatment uses a variable-depth milling pattern that changes density across nine zones from heel to toe. It’s an effort to modulate the consistency of energy transfer and control spin so that mis-hits roll out more like center hits.
Range of blades includes: the BB-1, the classic heel-toe weighted cavity blade with softer lines; BB-8W, a deeper blade shape with slightly crisper angles; and the BB-28, a wider-flanged blade that uses a single-bend shaft for the slightest of toe hang to cater to a straight-back, straight-through stroke.

This slightly wider, notchback-style blade mixes a lightweight internal-lattice structure that’s made from 3-D printed nylon with the preferred heft and responsive feel of milled stainless steel.
The intricate grid, which provides stability and controls vibration for better sound, is produced from a material that weighs as much as 85 percent less than if that structure were made of typical stainless steel.
The complex latticework, which features an array of undercuts, wall thicknesses and angles, would be impossible to achieve through traditional manufacturing processes such as casting, forging or machining. On these blades it sits under the flange and fills out the bumper areas on the heel and toe.

Bringing the stroke-stabilizing technology of “zero torque” to traditional heel-shafted blades required rethinking the hosel into an S-shape so that the shaft better lines up with the head’s center of gravity.
The head’s center of gravity lies just inside the angle of the shaft’s axis. This dramatically reduces the torque effect on the head and face angle and puts the putter in a toe-up position. From here, the club stays square to the path naturally with little need for the hands to rotate the face back online.
The onset position of the hosel realigns the hands into a forward press. This makes a straight-back, straight-through stroke more natural.
