The Record
Written from the sources it cites · machine-drafted for the Community to correctThe GOLO 5R stands as a single entry in the Record, appearing in this line for 2016. The maker's archive lists it as a rounded back mallet built around a 303 stainless steel frame joined to an aircraft-grade aluminum face-sole core, a construction the maker's page describes as a modern marvel of engineering meant to deliver a soft, forgiving roll. That pairing of materials, with vibration dampening built into the connection between frame and core, is presented by the maker as the source of the putter's feel at impact.
Scotty Cameron's own pages for this model, captured across several years, describe the GOLO 5R as curvy and soft, and credit the combination of the 303 stainless steel frame and the aluminum face-sole core with giving the putter what the maker calls a buttery soft feel with legendary forgiveness at impact. Earlier captures of the maker's page also point to a misted finish matched to a gunmetal gray sightline field, and describe the design as building on a melt-into-the-ground aesthetic aimed at players who favor unbroken lines and simple alignment cues.
The maker's specifications describe the head as a precision milled stainless steel frame integrated with a lightweight aluminum face-sole, offset with a full shaft and a single bend, paired with a Matador Midsize 11 inch grip. Custom RH lengths are offered in half inch increments, and the maker's page lists custom loft adjustment of -1 to +1 degrees and custom lie adjustment of -2 to +2 degrees, with the head available at 33, 34, and 35 inches. On the record, this is the whole of the GOLO 5R's run: one release, one year, and a design the maker's own pages return to describe in nearly identical terms across multiple captures.
