Studio Select Newport 2.7

The Studio Select Newport 2.7 arrived in 2009 as part of Scotty Cameron's Studio Select line, built on the Newport 2 shape. The maker's specifications list a 4 degree loft, 71 degree lie, full shaft offset, and stock lengths of 33, 34, and 35 inches, with a head milled from 303 stainless steel. Custom options included a lie adjustment of plus or minus 2 degrees, the same run of stock lengths for custom orders, and a choice of grip between Black or Red Studio Design and Black or Red Baby T.

Golfshake's coverage of the release described the head as the popular Newport 2 shape with an engraved sightline on the back flange, paired with a flow neck carrying a half shaft offset, and reported the putter as right hand only with an availability date of November 1st 2009. That same report placed the 2.7 as a successor to the Newport 1.5 in the lineup, though its pricing was still to be confirmed at the time of that writing.

Set against the standard Newport 2, which the maker lists at a 3.5 degree loft and 70 degree lie with the same 33, 34, 35 inch length range, the Studio Select 2.7's verified 4 degree loft and 71 degree lie sit a shade higher and more upright than the mainline model, while sharing its full shaft offset and 303 stainless steel construction.
