Ok, I played a round today with the Circa 62. I love the Charcoal Mist finish. Mine has Winn oversized grip on it. Ugly as sin, but feels great on the green putting. The Circa 62 is a solid piece of milled carbon steel, no insert like my Studio Style Newport. This one has a much more solid feel to it which I like. granted, all round long I was either blowing them by the hole, or leaving them short trying to make certain I didn't run it past. The ball really jumps off the face of the Circa's solid carbon steel body compared to the Stainless Steel body and 303 GSS insert, (whatever that is) of the Studio Design Newport which has a much softer feel to it. Both are very nice in their own rights, but I think I prefer the solid feel of the Circa 62.
I like the sight/alignment dot on top better than the line down on the flange of the Studio Design Newport 2.5. Granted, the Studio is prettier, shiner and newer looking, but I seriously think I prefer the finish and feel of the Circa 62. This one has a solid chance of becoming my gamer. Granted, there is probably a trip to the Scotty Custom shop for a refurbish and custom paint fill and a new midsize orange dancing Custom Shop grip. But I really like the feel of this one. Anyone looking for a blade putter should seriously consider dropping the coin on a Scotty Circa 62. They hold their value better than most putters, and IMHO, they are a very solid, very well made and balanced putter.
