Kombi-S

The Kombi-S is the Studio Select entry in Scotty Cameron's Kombi line, milled from a single block of steel with a stainless steel face and the misted, glare-reducing finish that runs through the Studio Select family. The defining piece of the design is the interchangeable sole weight, which the maker's page describes as allowing multiple shaft lengths, and the maker lists custom lengths of 33", 34", and 35 inches for both right and left-handed builds, with loft at 4 degrees and lie at 71 degrees, a figure corroborated by jacksgolfingsolutions.com.

This one is dressed loudly for a Cameron: bold Cherry Dot graphics, a rich, translucent red lacquer paintfill, T-shaped high contrast red sight lines, and a red Cameron cord grip on a stepless shaft with full shaft offset. jacksgolfingsolutions.com describes the head shape as a compact mallet with no hosel, heel-toe weighting, and an adjustable aluminum weight bar in the sole, a more detailed picture of the interchangeable weighting than the maker's own listing spells out, though the two accounts agree on the underlying idea of adjustable, interchangeable weighting technology.

On the opinion side, jacksgolfingsolutions.com praised the Kombi-S for feel, looks, and overall performance, closing with the note that although you will need to spend a little more on a Scotty Cameron Studio Select Kombi Putter, you will certainly find that in this case, you are getting what you pay for. That's the tension the record shows on this release: a putter built around a genuinely unusual mechanical idea, wrapped in the loudest paint scheme of the Studio Select run, at a price the one reviewing outlet on file flags as the tradeoff.
