00:00He would hold physically onto his own forearm?
00:02Yeah, so he'd have the putter shaft against that
00:04and then that was his grip.
00:05He's pinning the putter shaft to his forearm like that
00:07and that's the grip he missed, the famous putt in 1991, Kier Island.
00:12He'd been using a conventional ping answer
00:14and that's the one he missed the 91 putt with.
00:16Early in 1993, he bumped into a young putter designer
00:19trying to make his name on tour,
00:21travelling around trying to convince players to use one of his putters
00:24and he asked him to make him one.
00:26A young man called Scotty Cameron.
00:28No way.
00:28Double denim, Scotty Cameron.
00:30Double denim, Scotty Cameron, the man.
00:32Pre-Titless Classic 1.
00:34It was essentially a Newport 2
00:37but because of the way he was gripping,
00:39so you know when you've got like an arm lock putter,
00:42he was having to just deal with basically negative loft.
00:45He was double hitting that.
00:47And he was having to hold the steel on the shaft and stuff like that
00:49so Scotty made him one with more loft and a longer grip
00:52to suit his style.
00:55So that was early in 1993.
00:56He went on to win the 1993 Masters with that putter.
01:00So after just a couple of months and then essentially the Scotty Cameron name was born.
01:05This is the Scotty Cameron that he used.
01:07And I don't know quite what happened,
01:09but basically I think because he was working for Mizuno,
01:11that might have been a Mizuno template Scotty Cameron.
01:14And that kept getting credited that Langer used a Mizuno putter to win the Masters with.
01:19So what he did, over the Mizuno there on the toe,
01:21he just put five X's.
01:22So you know how you get all the little markings and etchings
01:25you see on Scotty Cameron's now,
01:26the dogs and this and the other.
01:27That looks a bit like that.
01:28That looks like the genesis of that.
01:30But he was fed up of it being credited as a Mizuno win.
01:33So just covered that up on the old Darrell survey.
01:35It's worth a billion dollars.
01:37Can you imagine?
