Replacing a putter grip is a smaller purchase than replacing a Scotty Cameron putter, but it is still worth choosing carefully. Pistolini, Pistolini Plus, Pistolero and Matador are distinct grip model names. If a golfer already knows which one they want, matching that name should come before color or price.
Which versions are in the catalog?
The live grip listings include Scotty Cameron Pistolini Putter Grips – Black; Pistolini Plus – Gray; Pistolero – Red and Black; and Matador – Black/Silver. A black Pistolini is not automatically a substitute for a gray Pistolini Plus, even though the names are similar.
Before comparing shape or feel, read the manufacturer specification for each exact grip. Confirm its dimensions, profile and weight; small differences in a grip can affect a golfer’s preferred setup and may change the balance they feel in the putter.
Make sure it fits your putter
- Identify the current putter shaft and the size of the grip you plan to replace.
- Check the intended grip model, dimensions, shape and weight rather than assuming all putter grips fit and feel alike.
- Read the retailer’s product condition and authenticity information, especially for specialty or collector-oriented models.
- Ask the installer about fitting, grip tape, any extra materials and installation cost.
Buying a Scotty Cameron grip as a gift
If the recipient has mentioned “Pistolero” specifically, buy a Pistolero, not a generic pistol-shaped grip. When color matters, verify it from the exact listing and available photos. If you are not sure of the requested grip, a small measurement or discreet photo of the current one may avoid a difficult return.
Find the model currently offered
Browse the Scotty Cameron and other golf grip listings and compare the full titles before leaving for the retailer. Availability and prices can move as product feeds update, so inspect the final listing rather than relying on a saved snapshot.
This is a buying and identification checklist, not an endorsement of one shape over another or a claim that every listing will fit every Scotty Cameron putter.
