Scotty Cameron released the Super Select family of blade-style putters in January at the PGA Merchandise Show, and now Titleist’s putter guru is extending the Super Select line with the addition of four new clubs.
The Super Select Del Mar, Fastback 1.5, Golo 6 and Golo 6.5 are compact mallets that are designed to provide the same feel and sound that the Super Select blades create, but with slightly larger heads and more perimeter weighting, they should provide more forgiveness.
Like the original Super Select putters, the new mallets start as a block of 303 stainless steel before being milled into shape. Then the hitting area is given a new dual milling, with the first pass of a computer-controlled bit creating a series of deep cuts into the face before a second milling flattens the peaks that are made. According to Cameron, the advantage of dual milling is it provides a softer feel and lower-pitched sound that “deep milling” creates and that many players like, but gets more of the steel in contact with the ball for increased consistency and a better roll.

A pair of weights in the sole allows fitters to change the swing weight of the Super Select putters based on the club’s length and a player’s personal preferences.
The Del Mar is the smallest mallet and is all steel, but the Fastback 1.5, Golo 6 and Golo 6.5 have portions of the sole removed before a 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum sole plate is screwed into place. This removed weight from the center of the head, so more of the overall weight is in the heel and toe, which boosts stability and forgiveness.
The Scotty Cameron Super Select Del Mar, Fastback 1.5, Golo 6 and Golo 6.5 are now in stores for $449.
