Titleist Scotty Cameron Red X3 Putter
While the new Red X3 looks a lot like the original Red X with its hosel-less heel-shafted configuration, it is subtly different. While the original carried a single-bend shaft with a full shaft-width of offset, the Red X3 has only a quarter shaft of offset.
That may not sound like a big difference, but it is going to produce a noticeable change in the look at address. I also wonder if it will result in a little more toe hang… the weighting bias that helps the face open and close on an arcing stroke.
These differences are a good thing in that they mean the Red X3 with its solid head and different offset is going to give players another option as they choose a mallet putter. Choice is always good.
