Welcome to\u00a0Fully Fit 2026<\/a>, GOLF\u2019s new platform for providing you with real-golfer insights into what 2026 gear might be best suited for your game. To this end, we assembled six GOLF content creators of varying abilities and ran them through the gauntlet of six full-bag fittings (driver to putter!) at six major club manufacturers in Phoenix and Carlsbad, Calif. Our hope: that you might see shades of your own game in one of our panelists\u2019 and take some learnings and inspiration from their fitting experiences. In this installment (below), check out the putters that each of our Fully Fit 2026 panelists chose for their golf bags. You may browse each of our panelists\u2019 full 2026 dream bags here:<\/p>\n

Of all the decisions our Fully Fit panelists had to make to start off their 2026 dream bags, the putter was easily the most personal.<\/p>\n

Perhaps that\u2019s why both Wadeh Maroun and I ended up committing to putters that we had brought with us on the trip, although that doesn\u2019t mean we didn\u2019t take any new contenders during our week of fittings.<\/p>\n

While other categories during our project were more split, the bottom of the bags was dominated by two brands. While Vokey wedges took home the wedge spot for four of our testers, TaylorMade Spider putters found a spot in half of our setups. <\/p>\n

Scotty Cameron Studio Style Fastback OC Putter<\/a><\/p>\n

As an extension of the popular Studio Style Fastback design, the Studio Style Fastback OC is a low-torque model featuring the same ring-weighted, high-alignment, multi-material design of the other Fastback models, but with Scotty\u2019s tour-validated OC technology package. Featuring onset center shaft placement behind the putter face\u2019s leading edge, the straight shaft is precisely positioned in line with the putter head\u2019s CG location and leans 1\u00b0\u00a0forward. This allows for low-torque performance and face alignment that stays square to the path. STUDIO CARBON STEEL (SCS) FACE INSERT The Studio Style Fastback OC includes a chain-link milled Studio Carbon Steel (SCS) insert for soft sound and feel, treated with an electroless nickel plating for enhanced durability with aerospace-inspired vibration damping for tuned sound, feel and performance. CUSTOM BLACK SHAFT Custom made for the new OC putters, each model includes a special black KBS x Scotty Cameron shaft with optimal flex, unimpeded alignment and precise feel. CUSTOM MATADOR GRIP With a debossed chain-link texture built-in, each new OC putter includes a custom 11-inch mid-size Matador grip in black with racy red and cool gray accents.<\/p>\n

Why it\u2019s in my bag: This was honestly not a putter I ever thought would end up in my bag full-time. I came into this trip with two putters. A Scotty Cameron Studio Style Catalina, a face-balanced blade, and this Fastback OC. I thought I was doing an experiment to see what it would be like to try low-torque for the winter months and then switch back to see if it could improve my putting. But two experiences during Fully Fit really sold me that low torque might be a long-term decision for me. The first was at TaylorMade when I scored a 0.1\u02da face angle score with the Spider ZT. This wasn\u2019t a fluke either. I was constantly returning the face square every time. It was eye-opening because I didn\u2019t feel like I was doing anything different. <\/p>\n

The second was back at TPI, where, when running through the Scotty Cameron matrix, there was no putter I rolled better than the Fastback OC I came with. Every putt was end-over-end, the 360\u02da line the Scotty Cameron fitters were using on the golf balls locked in place. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s no surprise the Fastback and the Spider ZT were the two low-torque options I liked the most as they both have a soft feel, minimal shaft lean and minimal onset. I love the super soft feel of the new SCS Chain-link inserts and, given I\u2019ve already had a few months of playing with the Fastback, it\u2019s going to be in the bag for now. But the Spider ZT Black I got has a good chance of giving me a serious putter controversy later on.<\/p>\n

Why it\u2019s in my bag: This was the toughest switch, and I can\u2019t say that it\u2019s going to be a permanent one, but if there\u2019s a mallet I am going to play this year, it\u2019s going to be this one. I went into the trip and told each fitter that I was only interested in finding a mallet, which is not something that has been accomplished in my game up until this point.<\/p>\n

I actually walked into the TaylorMade Kingdom on our fitting day asking for a Spider Tour Black with no sight lines or alignment aids. The original plan was to recreate Tommy Fleetwood\u2019s putter. The problem was that no matter how hard I tried, the Tour X just performed better for me than the Tour did. So we went with the performance and stuck with the Tour X.<\/p>\n

I was able to use their My Spider Tour X platform to build this beauty. I have the firmer face insert, a black head with zero alignment features \u2014 including an unpainted Tru Path \u2014\u00a0with a BGT Stability One graphite putter shaft and a SuperStroke 1.0P Claw. I may be swapping this out soon for one of those new TPT Pulse shafts, but more on that soon. For right now, this is in the bag, and I\u2019m going to dedicate some time to it. It\u2019ll probably even make the trip with me to Battle at the Beach, but we\u2019ll have to see if it makes it in play or if it gets benched at game time.<\/p>\n

Why it\u2019s in the bag: I judge all putters by two things: aim and contact. That\u2019s it. My putter debate was between two options. A one-off Scotty Cameron that may still find its way in, but the Spider Tour X was apples to apples with the Scotty across the board \u2014 but with a softer pure roll insert. The soft face enabled me to dial in my speed a bit. I played an Odyssey Jailbird with MicroHinge for about 2+ years, so a soft face is preferred. I play a heavy putter, 650g total, as I want the putter to feel draggy or heavy down the line, which enables me to use my shoulders more. When I can\u2019t feel a heavy head, my hands take over and chaos ensues.<\/p>\n

Why it\u2019s in my bag: I selected the Scotty Cameron Studio Style Santa Fe for the feel and control it provides. The toe hang and blade-style design create a smooth, consistent roll, and the classic, old-school look gives me confidence over every putt. It strikes the perfect balance between tradition and performance.<\/p>\n

Why it\u2019s in my bag: Thanks to an hour-long fitting exclusively spent on the putter, I learned just how natural it is for me to leave the face slightly open, just a hair of a degree. That\u2019s my stroke, though! I needed a putter with a lot more face stability and something with plenty of squareness to it. As discussed above, my eyes, hands and instincts work best with perpendicular lines. It feels comfortable looking down at something with sharper edges.<\/p>\n
