Both available July 23 at $499; the Phantom 12 is positioned as the highest-MOI mallet in the range.
Scotty Cameron announced two additions to its 2026 Phantom line on June 16: the Phantom 12 and the Phantom 3.2. Both retail on July 23 at $499 USD. The Phantom 12 is positioned as the largest, highest-MOI mallet in the Phantom range to date; the Phantom 3.2 completes the two-shape addition to the lineup.
Scotty Cameron's description of the Phantom 12 is specific about the engineering rationale. The Space Gray aluminum face and mid-body keep mass light at the top of the head; steel components, which account for roughly 65 percent of total head weight, are positioned low and around the perimeter. The practical claim is stability on strikes that miss the center: perimeter-weighted construction reduces how much the face rotates on an off-center hit, which affects how far a missed putt travels and in what direction.
Scotty Cameron describes the Phantom 12 as the deepest and lowest center of gravity of any Phantom to date. For a player whose contact pattern is variable or who wants a mallet that reduces the penalty for imperfect rolls, that's the design argument.
My instinct runs toward blades, which I mention only to note that the published off-center stability data for high-MOI mallets is a genuine argument, not one I'm making from personal preference for the category. The Phantom 12 is the correct specification for a specific player type; the question for any buyer is whether their game matches that profile.
The Phantom 3.2 is the second shape in the announcement. Scotty Cameron has released the name and retail date but hasn't published full construction specifications for the 3.2 beyond the announcement at the time of this report. This piece reflects what has been verified; the 3.2 section will be updated as additional details are confirmed.
The Phantom line's existing shapes cover a range of mallet profiles for players who want more forgiveness and alignment assistance than a blade provides. The Phantom 12 and 3.2 extend that range with two new additions at the same $499 price point.
For the established shape at the other end of the line: the Scotty Cameron Phantom 9 review covers the existing profile in detail and gives a useful reference point for understanding where the Phantom 12's larger, higher-MOI positioning sits relative to where the line has been.
Both the Phantom 12 and Phantom 3.2 are scheduled for retail on July 23, 2026, at $499 USD. Scotty Cameron made the announcement on June 16, 2026.
The Phantom 12 is positioned as the largest, highest-MOI mallet in the 2026 Phantom lineup, with the deepest and lowest center of gravity of any Phantom to date. Its construction uses a Space Gray aluminum face and mid-body with steel components concentrated low and around the perimeter for off-center stability. The Phantom 9 is an existing shape in the range; the full review covers the construction and profile in detail: Scotty Cameron Phantom 9 review.
The Phantom 3.2 is one of two new shapes added to the 2026 Phantom line, announced alongside the Phantom 12 on June 16, 2026. Both retail at $499 USD from July 23. Full construction specifications for the 3.2 haven't been published by Scotty Cameron beyond the announcement; this article will be updated when additional details are confirmed.
