Spotted: Tom Kim’s 2 new Scotty Cameron Circle T putters

Published

on

Fan favorite Tom Kim showed up to the 2023 WGC Dell Matchplay with two Scotty Cameron putters to test.

The newest one is a Scotty Cameron T5.5 Circle T mallet with a welded L-neck. Kim’s putter looks a lot like the Phantom X 5 you can buy at your local golf store, but with a few modifications. He carries over the single site line on the topline but adds dual lines on the flange. The face milling looks similar to the retail model but with the iconic Circle T logo filled in black. The sole of the putter has a black Circle T insert and 5g weights installed.

The sole around the insert does look like it was torched as you can see the blue, red, orange, and yellow hues that come out with high heat. These T5.5 putters with the welded L-neck are very popular with players one tour and it seems like we are seeing more and more of them. Kim’s LA Golf P-Series 135 graphite shaft in black is installed with a SuperStroke Tour 2.0 Zenergy in white and black.

Kim’s other flatstick is a Scotty Cameron Tour Type GSS that is similar to the Newport 2 head that you can buy at retail. The putter is milled from solid German Stainless Steel (GSS) that Scotty considers the highest quality for putter making.

The face has what looks to be a pretty traditional milling with a medium depth for a slightly softer feel and sound at impact. It is very rare to see a Scotty tour putter without any markings on the face, even our own tour photographer isn’t sure that he has seen too many with blank faces.

The new Scotty has two alignment marks with a site dot on the topline and a single line on the flange, both filled with gold paintfill. It looks like the Scotty Cameron and Circle T in the cavity are hand-stamped and filled with matching gold paint.

The sole of the putter has two 25g Circle T weights installed and “Tour Type” stamped just below the toe weight. A beautifully beveled L, or plumbers, neck finishes off the putter and that is where the LA Golf P-Series 135 putter shaft is installed.

The P-Series 135 is a full graphite shaft for added stability and enhanced feedback. The shaft is painted in a dark metallic green and LA Golf etched in Kim’s logo of a locomotive with his initials in it. The putter is finished off with a SuperStroke Tour 2.0 Zenergy grip in White Silver with Kim’s initials printed on it.

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

Published

on

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.
