If you’re into black, the special run of Scotty Cameron B3 Triple Black Design LTD classic blade putters is for you. How much blacker can it be? The answer is, none.
Inspired by convertible car culture – where a black paint job, black interior and black soft top signify a “triple black” color combination – these special-release putters feature four of Scotty Cameron’s most popular blade configurations with a “triple black” design format of finish, shaft and grip.
“Our Triple Black putters have always been a popular option on tour with players who not only like a stealthy, cool-looking design, but also want an extra solution for reducing sun glare,” said Cameron, founder and master craftsman. “We created the B3 Triple Black Design LTD putters to give dedicated golfers that tour-quality experience in four classic configurations.”
The new B3 Triple Black Design LTD putters ($750) will be offered in four models: the Newport 2 (available in right-handed and left-handed), Newport 2 Long Neck, Santa Fe and Catalina.
“The Newport 2 is always the most popular model, and with the Santa Fe, Newport 2 Long Neck and Catalina models, we’re presenting playable options not available in the current line,” said Austie Rollinson, senior director of putter R&D.
The flagship model of the B3 Triple Black LTD line, the Newport 2, is modeled after the crisp, mechanical shape of the Super Select Newport 2. The Newport 2 Long Neck is an I-beam style long neck added to the familiar Super Select Newport 2 head shape, promoting a more straight-back-straight-through putting stroke.
The Santa Fe features an I-beam-style flare 1.5 neck and a shape based on the softer, rounded features of the Super Select Newport – a configuration currently available only on tour. The Catalina, inspired by the Classic X, features a shape slightly wider than a standard Newport, with a setup featuring a shaft-over-spud design and a modern single-bend shaft.
The featured tour black finish on B3 Triple Black LTD comes from a PVD treatment applied to the 303 stainless steel putter head and shaft, resulting in a dark look that reduces glare. The putter’s topline is manually misted, and the face and sole are hand-buffed before its application.
Each putter also features a black Pistolini Plus grip that complements a premium embroidered, custom-designed B3 Triple Black Design LTD headcover.
