Newport Button Back

The Newport Button Back line, as our records show it, begins and so far ends with a single release: the 2021 Champions Choice edition. There's no arc to trace across years here, only a single, carefully positioned entry point, one that the maker itself frames as a callback rather than a fresh start.

Scotty Cameron's own page ties this putter directly to the model trusted to victory at the 1997 Masters, describing the Champions Choice Newport Button Back as paying homage to the spirit of the original design, but with numerous refinements. That lineage claim is the whole story of this line as we hold it: a 2021 release built on the Special Select Newport head shape, dressed in a silver misted stainless steel finish with a flat topline, and carrying the Teryllium insert with performance balanced weighting. The three-dot theme appears in translucent red, white, and translucent blue, carried through as winner's stripes on the face and sole, a limited release detail rather than a running feature across multiple years.

Because the line consists of this one row, there's no era-to-era comparison to draw, no shift in materials or geometry to track over time. What we hold is the 2021 Champions Choice edition on its own terms, positioned by the maker as a tribute to a specific piece of history rather than the start of an ongoing series.
