The master has returned with yet two more custom putter design creations. Just when you thought the Futura could not get any better, Scotty Cameron announces his latest addition to the stock of Scotty Cameron custom putters the Futura X7 and the Futura X7M.
Cameron and Titleist are excited to announce these new members of the family.
Futura X7 and X7M use a innovative face-sole core technology, with advanced perimeter weighting to increase stability and forgiveness throughout the stroke, while providing easy alignment and a soft but sure feel. The new X7 and X7M are the next wave of evolution from Cameron’s Futura line, that is a putter with proven contours that give the players high-MOI performance, with a resistance to twisting during the stroke, because of the top level perimeter weighting.
“The motivation behind the new Futura X has always been to help the golfer make a more stable, more balanced, more consistent, and more confident stroke,” Cameron said. “Now we’ve enhanced those benefits in X7 and X7M through larger, multi-material constructions that make alignment simple. For the golfer, that translates into higher MOI for stability, a bigger sweet spot for forgiveness, easier alignment for a confident set up, and a better softer feel.”
Futura X7 is a larger wingback mallet (that’s almost 10% larger that Futura X5) with a horizontal and vertical sight lines, while Futura X7M comes with a unique pop-through bar-back mallet design for an additional MOI and stability. (The M in X7M stands for MOI). Futura X7M Dual balance combines the X7M head design with tour proven Dual-Balance technology for maximum stability in a non-anchored stroke.
Each Futura X7 model features an aluminum face-sole core that is surrounded by a stainless steel frame. This multi-material construction allows for an improved MOI for stability and forgiveness, while producing the softness sound and feel in the Futura family.
“The key feature is the two materials,” said Cameron. “Basically there are two constructions involved here. The feel and the sound of the lightweight section are married together with the heavier surrounding heel,toe and back to be-more forgiving for better performance.”
The Futura putters are now inn the bags of the PGA Tour players like PGA Champion Jason Dufner and Brendon de Jonge.
The new technology in the Titleist Scotty Cameron Futura putters, features larger club heads, with multi-material construction. The new Face-Sole core milled from lightweight aircraft grade aluminum.
In the Dual-balanced model, a 50 gram heavier head (400 grams total) and a 50 gram counter weight in the butt of the shaft. This configuration helps players who have the shaft remaining pointed at the mid-section.
The standard shaft length on the Dual-Balanced X7 is 38 inches, with 15 inch grips to help players grip the club below the counter weight for a more stable stroke.
The larger,mallet head designs of the Futura X7 and X7M, work together with the 10-inch Matador Mid Red Midsize grip. The grip weighing in at 77 grams, feels great and produces a more stable stroke.
All additions to the Futura Scotty Cameron family are now available from your local pro shop and golf retail stores.
Prices ar Futura X5 and X5R $375.00, Futura X7 and X7M are $410.00, and the Dual-Balance Futura putters are $425.00.
