Performance index
Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Feel92
- Sound90
- Looks90
Watch
Rated highest for feel and sound; its softest dimension is workability.
You want a blade you can aim, with a little more steadiness than the traditional shape gives.
You want the narrow classic outline, or you need the genuine stability of a mallet.
Pros
- A wider body that steadies the head without abandoning the blade outline
- The alloy sole plate puts weight into the corners where a slim blade has none
- The softest face Scotty currently makes, on a shape that suits a gentle arc
- Stainless weights swap by length, so balance holds whichever build you take
Cons
- The stability gain over the narrower Newport 2 is real but small for the money
- A wider blade at address, which anyone wanting the pure classic outline will notice
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentA light alloy plate under a broadened body pushes mass to the extremes, though the gain over the standard head is modest.
Distance
ExcellentSpeed off the face is consistent enough that mid-length putts finish close without much thought.
Workability
SolidMiddling toe hang, so the face releases at a pace that suits a gently curving stroke.
Feel
Class-leadingThe same carbon panel as the rest of the line takes the edge off impact while the strike still registers.
Sound
Class-leadingImpact stays low and short, and the wider body does nothing to brighten it.
Looks at address
Class-leadingA broader footprint behind a blade outline, which reads steadying to some eyes and clumsy to others.
