Scotty Cameron Unveils Phantom Black Putters with Tour-Inspired Mallet Designs
Scotty Cameron's limited Phantom Black lineup brings tour-driven mallet designs in a sleek black finish. Gear: Scotty Cameron Phantom Black putters Price: $750 Specs: Tour Black PVD finish, 303 stainless steel body, 6061 aluminum components, chain-link face milling, performance-matched sole weights, Matador grip Available: July 25 (limited release through select Titleist accounts) Who it's for: Golfers who want a tour-inspired mallet with a sleek black finish, refined feedback, and customized alignment features. What you should know: The Phantom Black family includes four head shapes—5.5, 7, 9.2R and 11—featuring tour-specific modifications, including unique shaft bends, sight lines, and neck styles not found on the standard 2024 Phantom lineup. The Deep Dive: When Scotty Cameron introduced the updated Phantom mallets in early 2024, the focus was on stability, alignment and feedback. Those putters—models like the Phantom 5, 7, 9 and 11—delivered high-MOI performance through multi-material construction and showcased a modern look built around refined shaping and vibrant alignment lines. But if there was one thing missing for players who favor a stealthier aesthetic or prefer the tour-preferred look of a darker finish, it was the Tour Black treatment. That's exactly what golfers are getting now with the new Scotty Cameron Phantom Black putters—a limited-release collection of four Phantom models built with feedback from Tour pros and dressed in an all-black PVD finish. It's a follow-up to 2023's Triple Black blade release, but this time the spotlight is entirely on mallets. The Phantom Black family includes the Phantom Black 5.5, Phantom Black 7, Phantom Black 9.2R, and Phantom Black 11. Each head is precision milled from 303 stainless steel, with misted, anodized 6061 aluminum sole and flange components. While the original Phantom X putters had a dual-mill design like the Super Select putters Cameron had released a year before, the limited-edition Phantom Black putters have the same chain-link face milling pattern on the hitting area that Scotty debuted in the 2025 Studio Style blades that were released in January. The pattern reduces surface contact and provides a slightly softer sound and feel at impact—a detail tour players were looking for. Unlike the standard Phantom models from 2024, these putters incorporate custom setups inspired directly by the tour. The Phantom Black 5.5 retains the winged mid-mallet shape and jet neck from the standard version but gets a new sightline configuration. A left-handed version is also being offered in limited quantities, which is relatively rare in limited drops. The Phantom Black 7 features a unique double-bend shaft configuration designed for a player who want the look and feel of a plumbing neck with face-balanced performance. The Phantom 7 has always been known for its high MOI and easy alignment, but this version refines that with a more tour-driven shaft bend and alignment setup. Perhaps the most intriguing new offering is the Phantom Black 9.2R—a head shape that wasn't part of the 2024 retail launch. It's a completely new model created with rounded contours, a custom '009-inspired' plumber's neck that sits farther back toward the heel, and a single sightline. The shape and setup should appeal to players who want mallet-level forgiveness in a more compact profile that offers greater face awareness. Rounding out the group is the Phantom Black 11, a face-balanced, high-stability mallet with a mid-bend shaft and parallel alignment lines for easy aim. While the standard Phantom 11 was already one of the most forgiving putters in the 2024 lineup, the Phantom Black version sharpens the look with its all-black finish and muted aesthetic. Each putter comes with stainless steel heel-toe weights that allow the swing weight to be adjusted based on the putter's length (33-inch models come with 10g weights, 34-inch with 15g, and 35-inch with 20g). Every model comes standard with 3.5 degrees of loft, a 70-degree lie angle, a urethane-coated Matador grip, and a custom Phantom Black headcover. These are not simply rebranded Phantom X putters with a new paint job—they're small-batch, tour-influenced builds that represent what Scotty Cameron and his team deliver behind the ropes for the best players in the world. For golfers who want that experience and aesthetic in a mallet, the Phantom Black lineup delivers it in spades.
