Description The Studio Style Newport 2.5 has the same great attributes as the refined Studio Style Newport 2 but with a short, flowing Santa Fe style neck creating more toe flow. The Studio Style Newport 2.5 feel...

Summary: This Putter works very well for me. I previously used the studio style newport 2 which is a great putter as well, however I seemed to have better "touch" with this putter. On missed puts to the right or left of the hole, the 2.5 was 50% closer to the hole than the 2 for me on average. keep in mind im taling about a miss by 2-5 inches with the newport 2 putter.
Slightly more "buttery" feel whit the 2.5 and littel shallower line up than the 2.

Summary: The negative reviewers are drunk. Either that, or they couldn't putt if they were the reincarnated souls of Bobby Locke.
This, like most all Cameron putters, is flawless. It has *perfect* balance and it just wants to make putts. A bad stroke wouldn't know the difference. if you play a little bit, put this thing in your hands and tell me its bad.
It is anything but overpriced. The junk Od and gimmick putters sell for aton, too. Go the extra couple bucks and flirt with perfection.
Forget the "wow" factor and trying to impress people. These putters perform and that is the bottom line. Nothing is made better.
This model is one of 3 I own and I have been using it for a couple years now. The toe flow is perfect. I love for short, right to left putts.
I give it a good value rating because it will last forever. Plus, it has made me 10x what I spent on her.
Customer Service: Never used.

Summary: I have had and sold almost every quality putter known in my quest for a putter that could give me consistent 2 putt ability on the course. No complaints about the quality (see list below) or customer service of the putters I have had, but I could not buy a two putt. I was always a 3-4 putter. Admittedly my own lack of putting skills and not the putters fault. Through my search for a putter that would suit me, the Cameron Futura Phantom had been the gamer so far.
I was almost certain that no traditional style putter was for me. Then I bought the Studio Style 1.5 (santa fe style neck) 35 inches, last month. I had seen it and played around with it at the shops, but thought the santa fe neck would make my game harder and not easier, although the feel was so pure, that I had always passed on it. It was basically a desperate buy of someone who has tried them all. To my amazement, the quality shop feel translated to the course (a rarity in my experience-what feels good on carpet not always does so on greens), and for the first time in my 3 years playing this game, I am consistently 2 putting.
This putter fits my eye, and the neck hosel arrangement evidently works for me better than any plumbers neck model.
Highly recommended.
Customer Service: No need so far.

Summary: Okay heres the deal, there is nothing special about these putters except for the price. I got mine as a gift from my father after he had his worst putting season ever with it. I have to say that my results where the same. I wanted to like this putter because it is dead sexy and everytime im at the course i get complaments on its good looks but it just isnt the best putter for me. I have allot better luck with center shafted putters and prefer odyssey's #2 and #8 white hots over this one and i even putted better with my old Ping B60. Im not trying to say that this is a bad putter but rather im saying that its nothing special either and for the price they charge for these i expected something more. If your interested in buying one for the snob factor then YES this putter grabs peoples attention with its giant bright yellow head cover though the slot for the "pivot" tool is garbage as i lost the tool day one and dont plan to replace it for the $35 they charge for another one (again, what are you paying for REALLY?).
