I noticed Adam Scott's putter looked a little different. A cross between a Futura X and a X5?

Adam has been playing a putter that is a concept putter called X10. It is shortened to avoid the anchor ban and is "whited" out in paint scheme. The Futura X7M is closest to it however the Futura X is a former inspiration for it...
Here is Adam Scotts Futura X7M with the Mickey Mouse Ears...
Here is a side by side of the three OTR Production Futura X putters that some may reference...clearly Adam's is similar but different...

Wow...great information Chris! On a similar topic, do you know how many tour pros play OTR style putters and how many play prototypes? Are most of the guys playing putters that aren't available to the general public?

Many tour pros play similar or the exact same putter as the OTR versions which is one reason why Scotty Cameron is the most popular putter on tour...(I did not get paid to say that! LOL)
The Newport 2 and Newport, no surprise, are two of the most popular models however the golo and futura are quickly growing in numbers. Lately, many pros are trying out the new Futura X7M from what I can see on the practice greens...
Some players on the various tours are playing a similar version to the OTR Newport and Newport 2 called the Concept 1 or 2 Rat....this is not available to the masses but can be obtained via Scotty Cameron's Gallery for a price (ranging from $2,500-$5,000).
I would say the majority are playing with very similar or identical to the OTR's you and I can purchase at our local golf store...that is the quality one gets when investing in a Scotty Cameron Putter IMHO!
Here are some pics illustrating my last post:
US Open - Golo 5 being used...almost identical to OTR except for headcover from SC custom shop.
Korean Open: Golo 6 being used same as OTR except blacked out which can be done via SC Custom Shop
Here is my version of the OTR I had done at the SC Custom Shop:
Another Tour Stick Similar (to Newport 2) but not the same as the OTR called the Concept 2 RAT:
Sole weights are identical except for markings as the OTR and the putters many times are similar except for color or markings...basically you can have confidence purchasing the OTR and knowing you are obtaining a tour equivalent putter!
Have fun!

Thanks for the info Chris!
Did anyone notice the sweet Scotty Cameron Tiffany Dog Pattern Staff Bag in Chris's side by side?
Thanks for the info on Adam' putter. Great pics.
