Looking for Feedback on the Scotty Cameron Newport 3

I’m considering upgrading my putting game and the Scotty Cameron Newport 3 has caught my eye. I’ve heard great things about it, but I’m curious to hear from others who have actually used it. Here are a few specific things I’d love feedback on:

Performance

  • Feel: How does it feel during your stroke? Is it responsive?
  • Balance: Does it give you a solid feel on the greens?
  • Distance Control: How well does it perform with long versus short putts?

Features

  • Design: I love the classic look, but does it hold up? Any pros or cons?
  • Weighting System: Does the adjustable weighting make a noticeable difference?

Comparisons

  • If you’ve switched to the Newport 3 from another model, how does it stack up? Is it worth the investment?

Overall Experience

  • Would you recommend it to someone looking to improve their putting? Any other tips for getting the most out of it?

Thanks in advance for sharing your thoughts! I’m hoping to make an informed decision and your insights would be really valuable.

Feel free to include any detailed reviews or personal experiences. Looking forward to the discussion!

I recently got the Scotty Cameron Newport 3 and I’m really impressed by its head shape. The squared-off design really helps with alignment, especially on those tricky putts.

Absolutely! The weight distribution feels perfect. You can really feel the stability through the stroke, especially when hitting longer putts.

I love the materials used on this putter! The feel of the face is unmatched; it almost feels like it absorbs impact, leading to softer rolls.

Totally agree! I’ve tried other brands, but the quality of the finish and the materials Scotty uses really stands out.

Is it just me, or does the Newport 3 look amazing at address? It inspires a lot of confidence, which can be half the battle.

7

Exactly! And that’s so important in putting. If you feel good addressing the ball, you might just sink it!

After transitioning from a blade putter to the Newport 3, I found it much easier to maintain a consistent stroke. The balance is just right for me.

While the Newport 3 has great features, I sometimes wonder if the price tag is justified. I mean, is the performance really that much better than a mid-range putter?

11

In my experience, yes! The feel and feedback you get are worth it. But I get where you’re coming from.

12

With its unique design, do you think the Newport 3 is suited for all skill levels? I’ve heard mixed opinions about it.

13

I think it can be, but it really shines for those who have a solid stroke already. Newer players might prefer something more forgiving.

14

At the end of the day, it’s all about personal preference. Whatever works for you is the best option, right? But I do love showing off my Newport 3 in my bag!

15

Haha, true! If nothing else, it definitely has that ‘wow’ factor. Plus, it’s a conversation starter on the course!

I’ve been using the Scotty Cameron Newport 3 for a few months now and it’s a game changer. The feel and balance are incredible, making it easier to line up my putts accurately.

17

Absolutely agree! The feel is unmatched, especially compared to my old Nike putter. I just love sinking those long putts with it.

18

Has anyone had issues with the grip? I feel like it’s a bit too slick for rainy days. Overall, though, it’s an amazing putter.

19

I haven’t had grip issues, but I do think the price point is pretty high. It would be nice if it were a bit more affordable for casual golfers.

20

That’s a valid point! I definitely think it’s worth the price given its performance, but I understand not everyone can justify that expense.
