Precision-milled with full-face Studio Carbon Steel inserts, Scotty Cameron’s new Phantom mallet lineup aims to deliver softer feel and sharper distance control in a variety of configurations to meet the widest range of player needs.
Three tour-inspired head shapes – Phantom 5, 7 and 9R – and nine unique putter head, neck and shaft combinations have been created and refined to inspire confidence over the ball and deliver performance off the putter face.
The next generation of the Phantom family (SRP £449 (£499 Phantom 5 OC only)) features new full-face Studio Carbon Steel face inserts and chain-link face milling to soften sound while preserving feedback and ball speed off the face.
The lineup also has more shaft and neck configurations – plumbing and jet necks, mid- and double-bend shaft setups, and a low-torque Onset Centre build – all designed for different putting strokes and styles.
There are also tour-influenced shaping choices and refinements to improve consistency and confidence at address.
The Studio Carbon Steel (SCS) inserts debuted in the 2025 Studio Style lineup after extensive testing to find the optimal combination of material and milling. Carbon steel, which has a greater damping capacity than metal inserts like Teryllium, stainless-steel and aluminium, softens sound by limiting the duration of the tone of the strike. The chain-link milling technology reduces the number of touchpoints with the golf ball at impact to further soften sound while maintaining feel and feedback.
Across the three head shapes, the lineup offers five unique neck and shaft configurations to match different stroke types and player preferences. Brand-new to the Phantom family is a low-torque Onset Centre (OC) configuration in the Phantom 5 OC. Also making its in-line debut is the double-bend shaft configuration of the Phantom 7. Designed with extensive tour player input, the double-bend provides a more face-balanced feel with an alternative look at address compared to the mid-bend shaft setup previously offered in the 7.
Phantom 5, 7 and 9R head shapes are all offered with a “.2” plumbing neck configuration for players seeking moderate toe flow. Phantom 5 and 9R models feature a mid-bend shaft, while the 5 and 7 shapes are both offered in “.5” jet neck configurations as well for maximum toe flow.
The new Phantom putters also feature several head shape and profile refinements, all directly informed by tour player feedback. They all have a taller height at face centre and an increased radius on the topline, both of which affect subtle visuals at address and can translate to better path into the ball.
There is also a flatter sole design across the lineup with more surface area to sole the putter consistently, particularly across different slopes and grass types. Justin Thomas played a key role in its development, providing feedback to create a shape that helps keep the putter soled in a solid and square position for a more repeatable setup.
