What is the best putter in 2022? At GolfWRX, we take great pride in our online community and the cumulative knowledge and experience of our members. Needless to say, that extends to their views on the best putter of 2022.

The bedrock of GolfWRX.com is the community of passionate and knowledgable golfers in our forums, and we put endless trust in the opinions of our GolfWRX members—the most knowledgeable community of golfers on the internet. No other group of golfers in the world tests golf clubs as frequently or as extensively, nor is armed with such in-depth information about the latest technology.

Best putter of 2022 over $300: Top 5

1. Scotty Cameron Phantom X 5

What Scotty Cameron says: “Born on Tour and crafted for players who favor a mallet with the topline aesthetics of a traditional putter, the updated 2022 Phantom X 5 provides the performance and alignment benefits of a mallet with the feel of a blade. Continuously refined with expert feedback and new ultra-premium styling including a revamped Pistolero Plus grip that adds a decorative and non-slip texture to its design for 2022, Scotty pushed the concept of artistry through milling to the limit with a purpose-designed sole plate that provides perfect balance in the center of the “X” when the putter is soled.”

2. Ping PLD Anser

What Ping says: “The timeless Anser features a striking matte-black finish, rounded corners and softer ballast surfaces. For slight-arc stroke types, the Anser makes squaring the face to the target line easy and natural.”

3. Scotty Cameron Special Select Newport 2

What Scotty Cameron says: “Arguably the most famous putter head shape in the world, with scores of professional titles won, Scotty’s flagship model—the Special Select Newport 2—is the closest-to-Tour setup ever offered. With refinements made to every aspect, this timeless design returns to the roots of sound and feel with its insert-free, solid stainless steel putter head precision milled in the USA.”

4. L.A.B. Mezz.1

What L.A.B. says: “MEZZ.1 is our new mid-mallet putter that’s fully CNC machined from a billet of 6061 aircraft aluminum (body) and 303 stainless steel (midsection) to create our best-feeling — and we think best looking — putter to date. It includes 10 weights (eight on the bottom, two on the sides) that allow us to individually build each putter to a golfer’s exact specifications.”

5. Scotty Cameron Special Select Newport

What Scotty Cameron says: “Evolving the curvy, compact setup of this classic blade design, the Special Select Newport is crafted from solid milled 303 stainless steel without an insert and performance balanced tungsten sole weighting for a larger sweet spot and increased stability. The revamped plumbing neck allows for better alignment and setup with freer visual access to the flatter, narrower topline, while a cascading concave second tier knocks down reflection and provides a “melt-into-the-ground” appearance at address.”

    In all fairness, the ‘best putter’ is the one that matches the player’s mechanics and that sets up to how they see the line while looking down at the ball and putter head.

2024 Open Championship custom staff bags and accessories

Published

on

Every major championship is the time when companies express their creative sides with limited-edition bags and accessories. This year at The Open Championship is no different, as you will see below. Most of the bags and accessories around The Open will feature plaid or yellow accents as well as some reference to local legend. You will see stamps as this year’s theme, referring to the 8th hole at Royal Troon’s Old Course. This par 3 was originally named “Ailsa” but is now called “Postage Stamp” due to the nickname William Park gave the hole’s tiny green years ago.

TaylorMade

The “royal” theme inspired TaylorMade with their purple and gold staff bag. The staff bag is a deep purple and complemented with shiny gold accents with little hints at The 152nd Open Championship. Matching white headcovers feature a purple TaylorMade logo with a crown over it.

Cobra

I feel like Cobra went with a little more traditional look with its bag and headcover designs. The bright yellow bag matches the hole signs and iconic leaderboard that will be easily visible at Royal Troon this week. The headcovers are all different designs, but match with their stamp and mail themes stictched into them.

Srixon

I don’t think you can ever go wrong with a golf bag that features Scottish tartan on it! Srixon’s staff bag is a deep navy blue, red, and white with tartan on the sides. They also carried that tartan detail over to the classy headcovers that are white with green and tartan stripes near the bottom for a very Open Championship feel.

Callaway

Stamps everywhere! Callaway went heavy with the stamp theme and used them to celebrate the holes at Royal Troon. Each stamp has a hole number and graphic of the hole’s famous feature in them. For golf balls, they took the new Chrome Tour ball and used their Truvis graphics to celebrate the 1st, 8th, 11th, and 18th signature holes.
