Futura X7 and X7M are the next evolution of Master Craftsman Scotty Cameron’s Tour proven Futura X line, a putter family defined by modern contours that deliver high-MOI performance – resistance to twisting during the stroke – through advanced perimeter weighting.
Futura X7 is a large, modern wingback mallet (approximately 10 percent larger than the Futura X5) with horizontal and vertical sight lines, while Futura X7M offers a unique pop-through bar-back mallet design for additional MOI and stability. Futura X7M Dual Balance combines the X7M head style with tour-proven Dual Balance technology for maximum stability in a non-anchored stroke. Each Futura X7 model features a lightweight aluminum face-sole core surrounded by a stainless steel frame. This multi-material construction delivers improved MOI for stability and forgiveness, while producing a soft sound and feel.
Available in stores beginning Oct. 23, Futura X7 and X7M models are currently in the bags of many players across the worldwide professional tours, including Jason Dufner, Brendon De Jonge, Zac Blair and Byeong-Hun An, who recently won on the Korean PGA Tour trusting a Futura X7M model.
High-tech, multi-material construction includes:
- Larger Club Heads with higher MOI deliver greater resistance to twist for increased stability and a larger sweet spot for more forgiveness.
- Multi-Material Construction – featuring a new Face-Sole Core milled from lightweight aircraft-grade aluminum, integrated with a precision-milled 303 stainless steel frame – moves weight out and back for improved MOI and greater stability. The steel frame is seamlessly connected to the aluminum face-sole core at five key points with vibrations dampening technology that helps deliver the softest sound and feel in the Futura X line.
- Larger club heads with longer alignment lines provide Easy Alignment.
