Spotted: Scotty Cameron Circle T putters at the 2023 Wells Fargo Championship

Interesting Scotty sightings abounded this week at the Wells Fargo Championship (check out all our photos from the event here).

We break down some of the Circle T action at Quail Hollow, below.

Stallings had an interesting Scotty in the bag as it was made from the rarer GSS, German Stainless Steel, and lacked any stampings of the model name on it. From the photos it looks like a Timeless, similar to the Newport 2, with the GSS stamping on the hosel and a Circle T made into a crown on the face. The back cavity has "Cameron" stamped upside down and a single site dot adorns the thin topline. The tri-sole is very simple as well with three stars on the toe and "350" near the heel that I am going to assume is the weight of the head.

Scotty's GoLo mallet seems to be getting more and more popular on tour as Taylor Montgomery is one of the latest players to test one out. Taylor's is a little unique as he has a plumbers neck, or crank neck, welded on for some added toe hang. The head is made from Scoty's Tourtype SSS stainless steel and features a little deeper milling on the face for a softer feel and muted sound. Taylor's putter is covered in cherry bombs on the face and back cavity that are filled with the same translucent red paint that covers the Circle T logo on the sole. Twin 10-gram Circle T weights are installed on the sole and a single black site line is milled into the flange.

I feel like we have seen a few center-shafted putters pop up on the putting green recently, and it looks like Eric Cole is a fan. We spotted a Circle T SB-2 with a center shaft welded on in his bag and these center-shafted models are usually face balanced. The small site line is on the topline right next to the post for the shaft, leaving the flange naked. The face has a deeper milling and triple cherry bombs near the toe. Milled from SSS the SB-2 is a wider version of a Newport 2 head and contains 5 cherry bombs in the back cavity. A large Circle T logo is milled into the sole plate and we have 15g weights installed in the heel an toe sections.

Another TG6, based on the retail GoLo head, but done in black for Ryan Gerard. Ryan went with a little shallower milling on the face but kept the three cherry bombs, filled with light blue paint. We also see his initials stamped on the toe of the face in matching light blue paint. A small single site line sits on top of the topline with a flange void of any alignment aids. It seems like all the TG6 putters are made from Scotty's Surgical Stainless Steel and this model is no exception, with SSS logos on the face and on the sole. Ryan went with twin 15-gram weights and a large sole plate with a Circle T logo filled with light blue paint fill.

Dustin Johnson emerged as the champion of the 2018 RBC Canadian Open. He secured a three-stroke victory to claim his third win of the season and 19th PGA Tour title overall. Johnson finished with a score of 23-under-par, setting a tournament record. His exceptional performance included a final round of 6-under-par 66, which propelled him to the top of the leaderboard.

It was DJ's first win in the RBC Canadian Open, and he became the first world number one-ranked player to win the tournament since 1981. Additionally, Johnson's triumph came just a week after a disappointing finish at The Open Championship, where he held the 54-hole lead but ultimately finished tied for second.

Golfers on professional tours use a wide range of wedge lofts to hit the shots they need in order to score well. Not many of us amateurs go with a high-lofted lob wedge like Joey Garber's 64-degree Vokey. His Vokey is a prototype but there was a 64 W Grind that was available to us in a limited edition through Vokey's WedgeWorks program. The W Grind offers a wider, low-bounce, sole for firm conditions and courses with lots of elevated greens.

Vokey describes the 64 W Grind

"The 64W is a unique wedge made for players who play in firm conditions, golf courses with elevated greens and tricky short-sided lies. This wedge is made for the player with quick hands who likes to see the ball elevate quickly, the fearless player who isn't afraid to attack any pin. The sole is a medium-width sole with slight camber and an effective bounce of 4°."

It looks like Garber's wedge might have a little more bounce than the retail model as we see a "9" stamped in the Proto stamping on the toe. He has also gone with what looks like a raw steel finish over the retail model's black finish.

A Mitsubishi MMT Scoring Wedge 125 TX is the shaft of choice and the wedge is finished off with a Golf Pride Tour Velvet Cord grip.

Our tour photographer was out at the BMW Charity Pro-Am on the Korn Ferry Tour and snapped some shots of a new Aldila Rogue wood shaft. The Rogue name has been synonymous with cutting-edge technology and tour use since it was released almost 10 years ago. Aldila hasn't given us any details yet, but the shaft has been available in Japan for a few months.

The logo looks to be the image for "infinity" after the Rogue text, so that could be a clue to a future name for the shaft. I did some searching and found some specs from a listing for a Japan version of the shaft, so these might change by the time we get the shafts here in the United States. There is also a logo for a "Dual Torque Core" technology that was described as an "ultra high modulus carbon for the entire length of the shaft." The description was a little washy on the launch of the shaft as part of it described the Rogue as a mid-launch while another section stated high launch and low spin.
