Are these face balanced?
Almost. They have just a bit of toe hang.
SC
Is there anyway of knowing the exactly dimensions of the head of the standard version of the Kombi?
I really want to have one pre ordered, but I dont want to if the head is too big or too small for my liking.
Glad to say that I have NEVER been so excited for a single putter release in my entire life.
Birdies,
Matt Hoover
Scotty,
Can you explain the advantages of just a bit of toe hang rather than completely face balanced? I’ve noticed that same specs on the Fastback and have been wondering why that would be a better design.
Thank you,
Dave
I still favor and believe that the proper putting stroke involves an arc. Straight back and straight through is a nice concept, but very difficult to do with the nature of how we putt. Lie angle predetermines that we putt on an arc, and toe hang…just a bit…facilitates this type of stroke.

Scotty,
For us young Padiwans, what’s the story of the name “Kombi.” They look really cool!
RC
There’s an old truck that was a “Combination” truck/car/hauler that I like. In fact, I own one. Having the same type of putter head for a standard, mid and long putter gives players the option of different setups with the same type of putter. It’s one platform for a variety of uses, hence the name Studio Select “Kombi”. Of course, the weighting system is different for the mid and long, but the overall concept is the same for each of the lengths. Plus, Studio Select Kombi follows the Fastback 1 and Squareback 1 ideas, as far as naming goes.
Scotty
Sorry, I know this is random and probabbly not at all in the right place, but could the custom shop restore my newport oil can with the oil can finish, and not in the pro platinum?
Yes. We’d be happy to do that. If you have any questions, please call the Custom Shop: (760) 591-9720 (8am-5pm PST).
Thanks,
Scotty
Hey Scotty btw thanks for the studio select you customised for me its great!
I was just wondering, when are the Kombis going to be released as an OTR putter?
Thanks!
Will
April 1 we begin shipping.

Hey Scotty
Im just wondering the name of the custom putter you made for the JP McManus Invitational Pro-Am in Adare Manor in Ireland the last time it was held?(I think it was 2005)
I got one as a present off a friend whos grandad played in the event!! Its pretty beat up which is a pity as I love it. Would you be able to repair it if I sent it into the you?
Thanks
David
Is having it completely face balanced an option from the custom shop? I’ve been playing a pro platinum newport 2 for 10 years or so and with my SBST stroke I feel I’m fighting the putter. I was also looking at the fastback. Can you advise why you feel having a bit of toe hang is better than totally face balanced? Also, can you provide some advice in selecting the proper loft?
Thank you,
Dave
Completely face balanced is not an option. Please see my response above regarding toe hang.
Thanks,
Scotty
Scotty,
I read the release on this putter and I am realy excited for it. I was a bit confused and was wondering if the Kombi Md is going to be offered in a left handed version.
Thank you.
Andrew
Scotty this is random but are u coming out with any center shafted putters? The 2.6 is nice but i like the mallet look of the red x2 better. My friend said yall were coming out either with a kombi cs or a squareback cs is any of this info. true? And if not do u plan to come out with one?
Thanks always,
Hunter
I usually don’t do “center shafted”, but do some “straight shafted” putters. I’ve made some for Tour, so you never know. Perhaps.
SC
will it be offered LH mid and long
Only for the Studio Select Kombi Standard, not Mid or Long.
SC
Just want to know how to pre-order a RH Kombi Long. I have called all the usual suspects (Edwin Watts, Golfsmith, TGW) and they have no idea what I am talking about.
BTW- THANK YOU FOR MAKING ANOTHER LONG PUTTER!!!!! MY FUTURA THANKS YOU TOO
Scotty,
Just got my daughter a Fastback because she is a straight back straight forward putter. Switched her from the New Port 2. The problem now is she can not get the speed right on the fastback. Her long putts are terrible. The weight in the putter is 15. Few questions here:
Should I lower the weight to 10 for better feel?
Did I screw up the swing weight on the putter by cutting down?
If i cut to short will she lose feel?
She is 12 ..she shot 85 yesterday with 9-3 putts….I have never seen that many from here…she could not get the speed…of course this is partly user error (hehe) im sure…but would love your imput!
ps…i use a Newport 2 also….:) AWESOME!
Thanks
Richie
Fishers, In
You actually want to add weight to the putter head for proper swingweight and balance when you cut it down. Cutting too short can cause it to feel stiff and light, perhaps throwing off her stroke. JAT.
All the best,
Scotty
IF I NEED 45 INCH BELLY SHOULD I BUY MID AND ADD TO IT? OR BUY THE LONG AND CUT IT DOWN. THANKS JJ
I’d strongly suggest going with a Mid and having the Custom Shop add the length to it. Reason being, the lie angle on a Mid is 71 degrees, and will be set up better for you. With a lie angle of 79 degrees, the Kombi Long will be too upright for you. JAT.
Take care,
Scotty
Scotty,
Do you have to change up your customer options for the customer shop for that long awaited Kombi? I’m anxious to see your creativity at work with this awesome new revolutionizing mallet putter. Best in the biz. I’ll send my Kombi in to get Pimped! Keep up the good work.
Dear Mr.Scotty,
I know you replyed to my first comment and i thank you but The Studio Select Kombi Straight shafted putter thats all black in your tour articles.. Are you actually going to come out with this next year maybe this fall and will it be all black. My red x2 i was talking of in my first response was sent to Black Oxide services and would like to know if th Kombi Straight Shafted will be all black if you come out with it …hopefully i would pay $350 for one like that
Scotty,
I am currently in the market for a mallet putter, and I am looking at the Kombi, Fastback and Squareback. How would you compare the MOI of each of these putters. Just based on the size and shape of the putters, I would guess that the Kombi has the highest MOI, followed by the Squareback and then the Fastback.
Would that be correct?
Thanks.
Mr. Cameron,
i have a near straight back and straight through stroke and have been looking for a good putter for my style of putting. i found that center shafted and face balanced putters work very well. i really like both your fasback and squareback models but i feel like they are toe weighted a little bit too much. i noticed that Rory Macilroy uses the center shafted proto fastback, and i was wondering if there is one of those that i could get my hands on or if you have that model coming out for the public.
thank you.
Rory’s is For Tour Use Only at this point, but a straight-shafted Fastback isn’t out of the question in the future.
SC
is it possible to get hold of a center shafted fastback?
thanks
I saw that your are offering the 34″ & 35″ in a Heavy version. What is the weight difference? Is it possible to also make available in the 33″?
Thanks
Studio Select Kombi Heavy versions come with an additional 10g of weight. If you’d like a 33″ version made heavier, you can send it into the Custom Shop for more weight. We do not currently configure a 33″ Heavy version for Titleist golf shops. Thanks for your comments.
Scotty
Any possibility for a LH Newport 2.6 center shaft?
Why aren’t the swightweights of the shorter putters (33) as high as the longer puters (35)?
Scotty,
I ordered the kombi and can’t wait for it to get here. Just one question, if I send it in to get pimped at the studio can I get the black oxide finish?
That finish isn’t available, as this is an aluminum-bodied putter. Also, we only offer black oxide on putters that originally came with that finish.
Scotty
I have a 43 inch Red X belly putter which I love, but I struggle with alignmnet. Is the Kombi a good option with the alignment aids and is it as heavy as the large RED X?
Thanks,
Kevin
I want Kombi with center straight shaft .
Scotty,
When or if there is even a chance, are you going to release the BLACK KOMBI? Boy, that sure looks sharp, and would be in my bag tomorrow!
I’m only 5ft2, looking for a 32″ Kombi S? Is this possible?
I am a big fan of CS long putters. When I saw Adam Scott with the Kombi CS I started looking to see if there were any out there. Do you plan to produce these or can I send it in the Custom Shop to have it modified? Thanks. Mike
i wanted to buy a 50″ long kombi putter n cut it down to 34″
is this possible?
Scotty – it appears, at least on television, that the shaft in Adam
Scott’s long putter is straight right down to the putterhead
without the bend that is on the Kombi long shafted putter on your
website. If in fact this is correct can a straight shafted long
putter be ordered?
Scotty, I am in the market for a 40 inch Kombi…what are my
options? Can the custom shop build this? Can I cut down a 43 inch?
Thanks, Darren
Agree. I am interested in a straight shaft. Is that available? I am
6’6″ and need one about 53 inches. Is this possible to get?
Could the custom shop make a LEFT handed Long Kombi?
We do not offer that service. Thanks for your interest! All the
best, Scotty
So, is there no way to order a Studio Select Kombi at 48 inches in
length, with a center shaft and no offset? Isn’t that what Adam
Scott is using on tour?
It is a Tour-only prototype, made especially for Adam Scott. We do
not have them available at retail. Thanks for your interest. All
the best, Scotty
Can we expect to see the Kombi in your new line for 2012? With the
reported black oxide finish and teryllium inserts?
Is the Black Kombi like the one that Davis Love III is using going
to be available for the public to purchase at some point?
Hey mate 2 quick questions. first is it possible to have my putter
weights stamped in the custom shop with a logo of my choice.
secound when you make for tour use only putters is that only for
the uspga and euro pga or is that for any tour ?
We don’t stamp putter weights; we do offer engraved weights,
though. Check out the Custom Shop order form. Tour putters are made
for any and all professional golf tours worldwide. All the best,
Scotty
