Left handed options suck

I was lucky to have found my Scotty Del Mar in LH at my local shop years ago and haven't played another putter since but I feel everyone's pain when it comes to looking for new clubs and the limited options we have especially with special releases that never come in LH.

I have a bag full of Titleist clubs/balls, etc, but the main reason I haven't bought a Scotty is because of the lack of options for LH golfers. But it's not just Titleist, it's all of the companies, I have an Odyssey putter that I love and they came out with a new model, but it's not available for lefties.

They want to make money! I am left handed. Im a pretty loyal Titleist consumer. Ive bought 1 putter in the last 12 years. I feel your pain, but when ya take a step back and look at it, they gotta be able to run a business.

In areas where ice hockey is endemic, right handed slap shots translate well to golf LH. So there are RH people that switch for LH golf. Eh, Canada?
Still, not in great numbers But higher than in the PGA.
Cameron putters are predominantly for retail sale if you think about. The tour issued are strictly one offs and I’ll guess they are issued and not sold. IMHO they get a premium price at retail, That should justify supplying at least a few more options At least the Titleist TSR lines have gone back to full LH support. Vokey offers all standard releases in both LH and RH.
My backup putter is a Cameron & Crown (RH) as life has encouraged me to be ambidextrous. For my stroke and visualization, my LH Cameron 7.5 is the only LH option.
Not to get me wrong, even though I have more options with Evenroll or Odessey, I do like the feel of a Cameron.

About 10 percent of the world’s population is left-handed. But within the world of golf, that number gets even smaller, as only about 5 percent of the PGA Tour is left-handed. A lot of lefties change to righthanded when playing golf. It is about supply and demand. Unfortunately the numbers are just not there to create large runs of clubs.

Create your own club company and you’ll find out why. It’s just business.

Maybe if you ask Titleist nicely, they would make a custom one for you?
