  1. Hi. I have small rust spots on my scotty cameron putter shaft. It's about 3-4 years old. Is it normal for rust to show up?

    Any advice? Does Scotty cameron take responsibility? Any help would be great.

    If you leave the putter (or any club) in a moisture-rich environment, you will get rust on any part that is steel. A little WD40 on a rag or a lightly abrasive pad will remove surface rust.

    It is normal for rust to show up; (1) if you leave you clubs in the trunk and live in a hot and humid area, (2) if you do not wipe down your clubs after every play. Clubs over a period of time will get dings in the shafts from normal play, banging in you bag and when it rains or on those humid days. They can develop rust.

    Cleaning and Care for Carbon Steel Scotty Cameron Putters
    The unique feel of certain Scotty Cameron by Titleist putter models results from the use of milled carbon steel heads. This material is susceptible to oxidation and rusting if left damp. To preserve the natural finish of these putter models, you are urged to follow a few simple guidelines:

    • Always dry your putter at the end of the day with the soft silicone cloth supplied.
    • We suggest storing the cloth in your cover during the round and even wiping down the putter a few times during the round.
    • Always use a dry headcover.
    • Never leave your putter in damp or cold atmospheres.

    The Gun Blue, Oil Can and Teryllium series putters are most susceptible to oxidation so please follow these guidelines carefully. The Pro Platinum finish is more durable due to the plating between the soft carbon steel and the elements, but care should be taken to avoid dings that can rust.
