Red X2

The Red X2 line, on our record, centers on one release: the 2004 edition. It carried forward the Red X shape into a center shaft configuration, milled from Precision Milled Stainless Steel with a 303 GSS insert, at 71 degrees of lie and 4 degrees of loft per thesandtrap.com. Scotty Cameron's page lists the head in 33, 34, and 35 inch lengths, with head weights scaling from 350g down to 330g across that range.

Golfbusinessnews.com's coverage of the 2004 release describes a premium German stainless steel face insert surrounded by soft elastomer, a red Cameron Baby T grip, and a black Red X headcover with silver and red highlights, and credits Scotty Cameron as designer. That same outlet reported the putter would begin shipping to golf shops in July. Community opinion on thesandtrap.com points to a three dot alignment aid behind the shaft, meant to help the golfer set the shaft position before the stroke.

Where the line's reputation was made, it was made at address and on the sweetspot. Golfbusinessnews.com wrote that the look and feel of the Red X designs instils confidence at address, a line echoed in Community notes calling out the same quality. Reviewers were not unanimous on the transition to a center shaft, however: one account on thesandtrap.com called the Red X2 the best putter the user has ever had, while another user account noted it took a while to get used to the center shaft placement, a friction that shows up more than once in what Community members reported feeling off the ball.

Two rows carry the Red X2 name in our files, one tied explicitly to the 2004 edition and one general entry, but the facts point to the same putter throughout, a center shaft take on the Red X profile whose feel drew praise even as its shaft position asked golfers to adjust.
