Collectible Putters

Here's the Best-Putter.com guide to collectible putters. It is, admittedly, a work in progress and probably always will be. However, whenever we find more resources about rare or valuable putters, we'll post them here.

Collectible Scotty Cameron Putters

Apart from some very rare antique putters, collectible Scotty Cameron putters consistently achieve the highest prices in the collectible putter market.

They are the most desirable mass market putter and Scotty Cameron himself has released a steady stream of "limited edition" putters which regularly change hands for in excess of $1000, some much more.

Valuing these putters is a very inexact science and even though ebay is the best place to find them, ebay also has the reputation of having excessively high asking prices for rare putters, so tread cautiously if buying there.

Here are the current listing in ebay for "collectible Scotty Cameron putters":

Top prices are paid for putters which are in mint condition including the headcover and ideally in all their original packaging.

It was put together by a Ping Putter aficionado who goes by the name of "Lumpy", and was posted on the putter discussion site: PutterTalk.com. There is a wealth of knowledge contained in the book about the early Ping models from the Ping 1A to the early Ansers.

Most of the models are identified by photograph and stamp wording, which will allow you to know whether yours is one of the valuable early models.
