2025 Scotty Cameron Studio Fastback--Odyssey or other Equivalent?

[Ty_Guy]

I tried and love the 2025 Scotty Cameron Studio Fastback. The shape is unique. The 2024 version of the same model looks more like the Odyssey Three T, but the newer version adds the Jailbird gap. I want to test it next to another similar shape before I purchase.

 

Would you say the Mini Jailbird or the Three T (Toulon's Alcatraz Mini/Atlanta too) are more of a direct comparison? Or is there another similar model/manufacturer to the Fastback worth comparing?

The ones you suggested are what I've seen. The fastback is more compact to me. I had the Jailbird mini CH (crank hosel aka plumbers neck) and it was a tad larger in size.

If you tried it and loved it, why not just get the Fastback?

The nano jailbird might be closer in size.  Also, see if you can find a Toulon Seattle.

What did you do in the end?

2025 Fastback long design here. 
 

Still very happy with the putter, but also looking for a new, thicker grip.

How do you find the new insert?  I spent some time trying the Catalina and Fastback1.5 and I'm just not convinced.  It sounded/felt a bit like the old Odyssey metal x milled insert from a few years back.  
 

I'd also agree about the grip.  Didn't like that at all.

I‘m coming from a Ping PLD and an Evnroll ER2B and I wouldn’t say that it’s much of difference. It’s definitely far away from „soft“, still a very firm click and one of the reasons why I bought it. 
 

I might drop the long design and go with a standard version with heavier head weights + counter balance shaft weight to be able to get a large custom shop paddle grip. But that’s a project for the next winter, will definitely finish the season with this one.

I was never able to try a milled 3T, but I did try some other brands of the same shape. Ultimately, the negative space in the fastback along with the topline aim does it for me. Went with the 1.5 slant neck.

Thanks - on the SAM Puttlab it's the best fit for me, but out in the putting green I struggled with the insert.  Couldn't quite get comfortable with the sound / feel compared to my Toulon Garage Atlanta.  
 

I do really like the top line (same as my Atlanta) and especially like the perpendicular alignment.  Always liked Versa putters for that reason - just never the feel of the insert.  The Fastback also has slightly less offset than the Atlanta too (3/4 shaft vs full shaft) which I like.

Interested to hear what you did with the grip. I hate the original one in mine. Will play my first round with the 2025 Fastback long design tomorrow and already ordered a 17" SuperStroke Zenergy Tour 3.0.

 

Will report back results with the original grip and then with the SS

Did nothing till now. Saw my putter fitter, and the 17” odyssey grip on a jailbird was quite nice, but honestly too ugly to put on. Are you gonna try to save the original scotty grip? I might try to save it, but I’m out of ideas how to do so.

These are sweet looking, i wish there was a plumbers neck option. 
I have a jailbird mini CH, which i like, just wish it was smaller and i dont love the white.
