Flowback 5.5

The Flowback 5.5 enters the Scotty Cameron record with a single release, the Special Select edition from 2020. It carries forward the Flowback shape's identifying mark, a refined three red dot cherry ring back cavity design, according to scottycameron.com. That detail alone situates it in a recognizable lineage of Cameron backweighting and visual cues, even with the line represented by this one point in time.

The 2020 Special Select release sits within Cameron's broader Special Select generation, and the maker's page lists its current model equivalent as the Super Select line of putters, per scottycameron.com. That connection places the Flowback 5.5 as a predecessor to what Cameron sells under the Super Select name, a thread worth following for anyone tracking how these mid-mallet shapes have been renamed and refreshed across Cameron's catalog.

On build, the 2020 release offered the standard Cameron custom window of the era: loft adjustable from -1º to +1º and lie from -2º to +2º, with half inch length increments available, all per Scotty Cameron. The maker's page lists the face as fully milled and insert-free, in 303 stainless steel, per 2ndswing.com and carlsgolfland.com, and the grip fitted was the Pistolini Plus, per carlsgolfland.com. The maker's page also lists it as a mid-mallet model, per 2ndswing.com, consistent with the Flowback's broader identity as a head shape built around a rounded, blended cavity rather than a sharp-edged mallet.
