Scotty Cameron...Worth it?

10 in a row? I'd be outside all week waiting for that to happen.

60% of my shots come from within the woods.

Again, what is it about these putters that warrant the price?

I've had just about every kind of putter there is and I have a collection of them. Putting is something that is a state of mind,,confidence in your state of mind,,,mechanics,,speed,,judgment. I have a Scotty Cameron as well and for the price I wish I had the money back and bought a box of great cigars instead. I have taken 4 putters to the greens to see which one putts the best and I took 2 robustos. Here is what I found,,,when I putted without a cigar I tend to putt too short or too long. When I smoke a cigar I am within 2-4 inches from the hole on a 20 foot putt. Moral of the story: Use a balanced putter and have a good cigar so that you can relax. I have an old acushnet putter that I bought 20 years ago and it putted just as well as the Scotty Cameron. State of mind and confidence in your putt,,,,that is how you do it.

Get a used one from a 2nd Swing Golf or similar store. A lot of the time a store (even a 2nd hand store) will let you play with them and return them within 14 days if you don't like it. Granted, it means you can throw them in the lake or wrap them around a tree that way.

Bao I've got a Nike OZ Mallet Putter that I really like. I think I spent $100 on it. To me it has that feel. Might be worth a shot to try out.
