Who it’s for: Golfers who like the look and feedback of classic Scotty Cameron shapes but want more precise toe-flow options, softer sound at impact and, in the case of the Long Design, added stability to quiet the hands.

What you should know: The Studio Style family, re-established in 2025, is expanding with three familiar-but-refined models. Santa Fe brings a high toe-flow blade back into the retail lineup, while Fastback 2 and Fastback 2 Long Design add a plumbing-neck option and a counterbalanced build to the mid-mallet side of the family.

The Deep Dive: When Scotty Cameron brought the Studio Style name back in 2025, it marked a subtle shift in how his retail putters approached feel. On Tour, where price is not a factor, Cameron often uses German Stainless Steel (GSS), but that material is too expensive to use in retail putters. However, carbon steel inserts, once also the domain of Tour-only builds and early-2000s experiments, could work. Cameron opted for the added a chain-link milling pattern designed to soften sound without muting feedback. The result was a new line that felt distinctly different from fully milled stainless steel Camerons, while still looking unmistakably classic.

For 2026, a line extension builds directly on that foundation, and the Studio Style Santa Fe will be the headliner for traditionalists. Long a cult favorite, the rounded Newport-style blade returns with a flow neck that promotes maximum toe flow and face awareness. Paired with the Studio Carbon Steel insert, the Studio Style Santa Fe blends an old-school silhouette with the softer acoustics that defined the original Studio Style relaunch.

On the mid-mallet side, the Studio Style Fastback 2 answers a different request. By pairing the compact Fastback head with a plumbing neck (in Scotty-speak, a 2 indicates a plumber’s neck), Cameron created a version with moderate toe flow that will feel more familiar to players coming from Newport-style blades. The black anodized aluminum heel-toe inlay isn’t cosmetic; it allows weight to be pushed outward, boosting stability while also creating a high-contrast alignment frame at address.

The Studio Style Fastback 2 Long Design takes that same head and stretches the concept further. Built at 38 inches with a heavier head, 25-gram tungsten sole weights, a stiffer shaft and a 17-inch non-tapered grip, it’s designed for golfers who want to smooth out their stroke and reduce excessive hand action. Long Design putters aren’t for everyone, but for players who like a counterbalanced feel, this version adds another legitimate option to the Studio Style lineup.

Collectively, the Santa Fe, Fastback 2 and Fastback 2 Long Design don’t reinvent the Studio Style family. And they weren’t meant too. Instead, they round it out, filling in toe-flow gaps and stroke-type preferences that naturally emerge once consumers and fitters start spending time with a family of putters. If the original 2025 release was about reintroducing feel, this extension is about helping golfers find their fit.
