Hi David,

I recently got my putter back from the custom shop. I posted a thread on the Australia/New Zealand forum about my experience. Feel free to have a read. Its named 'Scotty Cameron Custom Shop'.

I have a a Dual Balance Scotty and wanted the shaft ring, and couldn't select it as a option. I reached out directly to the custom shop and they said it isn't a option as the DB putter have a thicker shaft to the normal putters. I have seen photos of the shaft ring on other putters and it looks great.

I also asked them as I have opted in for the black finish on the putter head and the black grip, can I have the black shaft to match the theme of putter. The custom shop came back to advise that the black shaft is only an option for the tour pro's and not for the general public in the custom shop (which I found very annoying and frustrating!).

I have lots of putters with the shaft ring...it looks great IMHO. they place it on the shaft where the sticker normally is placed. I would do the shaft ring if you do not mind spending a few extra dollars, it definitely is a better look. I do not have a picture handy however it looks just the like pic on the SC Customization website.

You cannot request a black shaft unless your current putter has a black shaft that was originally purchased via Scotty Cameron or one of his 4 authorized retailers in the world such as the Scotty Cameron Gallery.

Hope this helps, Have fun!

Thanks for the feedback guys, I really appreciate it! I’ll post pics when I get it back.
