The Record
Written from the sources it cites · machine-drafted for the Community to correctThe 2004 Red X2 carries the Red X name into its second iteration, built from Precision Milled Stainless Steel with a 303 GSS insert. The maker's page lists head weights of 350g at 33", 340g at 34", and 330g at 35", with a lie of 71 degrees, a figure golfbusinessnews.com corroborates. Loft is listed at 4 degrees by thesandtrap.com. The maker's page lists length options of 33", 34", and 35" inches.
Golfbusinessnews.com describes the head as a traditional mallet shape with a high toe profile, a flowing shaft bend, and a face insert of premium German stainless steel surrounded by soft elastomer, paired with a red Cameron Baby T grip and a black Red X headcover with silver and red highlights. Thesandtrap.com, by contrast, describes the neck as center-shafted with a straight shaft and no offset, three dots behind the shaft for alignment. The two accounts don't fully agree on how the shaft enters the head, and the record holds both without resolving them. Golfbusinessnews.com also notes the putter was not available in left hand, listed at £200, and set to begin shipping to golf shops in July, with a Scotty Cameron Pivot Tool included as an accessory.
Opinion on the Red X2 leans favorable but not uniform. Reviewers praised its precise look and desirable feel, and said it instils confidence at address, feeling soft yet solid on the sweetspot, language golfbusinessnews.com echoes directly: the look and feel of the Red X designs instils confidence at address. A thesandtrap.com poster went further, calling their 34" Red X2 by far the best putter I have ever had. Set against that is a recurring complaint that it took a while to get used to the center shaft placement, the one point of friction in an otherwise warm reception.
