Studio Select Squareback 1

The 2011 Squareback 1 is part of Scotty Cameron's Studio Select run, built from a design that spent a season on the PGA Tour as an Xperimental Prototype before Cameron brought it into production. The maker's page lists a double bend shaft-over-spud neck paired with a half shaft of offset, giving what the maker's page calls a nearly face-balanced mallet. The square flange that names the model carries a milled sight line and echoes the Newport's familiar lines, while the maker's page lists a precision milled 303 stainless steel head.

Against the rest of the Studio Select line, the Squareback 1 keeps the same headweight as its stablemates but runs a slightly thicker topline, and it shares the family's bold, Tour-inspired Cherry Dot graphics and factory interchangeable weights. Those are the details that separate it visually and by feel from a Newport or Fastback in the same Studio Select generation, even as the underlying construction and finish carry the family look across the line.
