Scotty Cameron 2019 Teryllium T22 Putters Preview: Popular Face Insert Returns in Re-imagined Newport, Newport 2, and Fastback 1.5 Models

Twenty-two years after the emergence of his original Teryllium-inserted, major-winning TeI3 designs, Scotty Cameron has reimagined and announced the limited release of three new putter models built under the "T22" moniker. 

 

Available in golf shops beginning Aug. 16, the Teryllium T22 Newport and Teryllium T22 Newport 2 offer modernized versions of the TeI3 models first introduced in 1997, while the Teryllium T22 Fastback 1.5 becomes the first Fastback 1.5 designed with a Teryllium insert. 

Precision milled in the United States from 303 stainless steel, and given a tactical matte black finish that brings out Scotty's unmistakable "domino pattern" in the back cavity, the new T22 putters are designed to the modern specifications demanded by today's dedicated golfers.  

An updated Teryllium inlay construction with an improved elastomer vibration dampening membrane combines with Scotty's removable sole weight technology and increased head weight to catapult the entire T22 line into the future. 

Teryllium T22 Newport 
First brought to prominence as the putter design trusted to victory at the 1997 Masters, Scotty's new Teryllium T22 Newport pays homage to the overall look, feel and setup of its original design, but with numerous upgrades and improvements, including a stainless steel construction, flat topline, adjustable sole weight, lightly-milled Teryllium insert and new durable tactical matte black finish. 

 
 
 
 

Teryllium T22 Newport 2 
Incorporating decades of design refinements, Scotty built the Teryllium T22 Newport 2 in the spirit of the early models, with the soft feel of his Teryllium alloy inlay, but with the modern shape and sole balancing precision of a modern Newport 2 Tour model milled from 303 stainless steel with interchangeable sole weights and a flatter topline. 

 
 
 
 

Teryllium T22 Fastback 1.5 
The new Teryllium T22 Fastback 1.5 incorporates a Tour-preferred mini-slant neck, improved four-way sole balancing for a square setup and a thinner topline similar to the Select line's Fastback model, while maintaining the visual aesthetics of early Teryllium putters with its familiar black, white and gold color scheme and "domino pattern" in the putter's back cavity. 

 
 
 
 

QUOTING SCOTTY CAMERON 
"There’s nothing quite like the feel of Teryllium.  It's the number one material request I get from players.  And, as we’ve seen multiple majors won over the past few seasons with a Teryllium-inserted putter, it's a great time to celebrate this legendary design.  T22 gave us the opportunity to take everything we've learned over the past two decades and refine the entire look, feel and performance.  Like a modern day muscle car, everything looks original at first glance, but each component is brand new.  Better milling.  Better materials.  Better construction.  They're made to game." 

 

MULTI-MATERIAL CONSTRUCTION 
Each Teryllium T22 model extends Scotty Cameron's proven construction methodology of incorporating complementary materials to achieve desired performance characteristics and feel.  With a precision milled Teryllium insert expertly designed into the 303 stainless steel putter head, Scotty's early execution of this concept has been improved upon using modern milling and manufacturing techniques, while preserving the incomparable feel of Teryllium. 

WEIGHTING & ACCESSORIES 
Each Teryllium T22 putter features advanced stability weighting with two customizable stainless steel heel-toe sole weights, stepless steel shafts and a custom Limited Release Teryllium headcover and shaft band.  A new black Pistolini Plus grip with copper paintfill was designed especially for the T22 release and features a thicker, less tapered low hand. 

AESTHETICS 
Inspired by the early Teryllium models, the new Teryllium T22 putters feature a tactical matte black finish with a unique bead blast for a radiant yet glare resistant appearance, with metallic gold and white paintfill.  The familiar back cavity "domino pattern" is produced by the white vibration dampening elastomer membrane used in the assembly of the Teryllium alloy face inlay. 

AVAILABILITY 
Limited Release Teryllium T22 putters will be available worldwide ($599) on Aug. 16, 2019, at Titleist authorized golf shops and at scottycameron.com.  As always, if you have any questions, feel free to send me an email or DM on twitter or Instagram.
