Newport Plus Button Back

The Newport Plus Button Back arrives on the record with a single entry, the Champions Choice edition of 2023, and its arc so far is the arc of that one release. Scotty Cameron's own page situates it as a continuation rather than a departure, built, in the maker's words, on "the success of the new Super Select Plus designs" while carrying forward "the legacy of the first-generation of Champions Choice Button Back models." The line, at least as we hold it, begins already in conversation with what came before it.

That 2023 release is a 303 stainless steel head, milled slightly wider than a standard Newport, with a Teryllium inlay set into the familiar Button Back three-screw configuration and a 6061 aluminum sole plate worked into the head for balance and MOI. The maker frames this as a deliberate blend, pairing "the aesthetics of a modern blade with the soft, responsive feel of Teryllium." Loft is 3.5º, lie 70º, offset full shaft, available in 33, 34, and 35 inch lengths with the Pistolini Plus grip. The red, white, and blue accents tie it visibly to the Champions Choice family it belongs to.

With only this one entry on record, the Newport Plus Button Back line reads less as a history and more as a starting point. It stands as the version of the model that put the Teryllium Button Back heritage into a Champions Choice frame, and everything the record can currently say about the line's character comes from what that single release put on paper.
