The traditional Honeycomb face has been replaced in favor of our aggressive Flymill milling technique, which produces a softer feel at impact. The BB1, our classic blade-style putter, has received unique cosmetic and performance upgrades for 2018 which includes a neck that has been moved slightly forward towards the sweet spot which promotes less toe hang. Next, let’s take a closer look at the 2018 Models However, when you do look at the Bettinardi catalog as a whole, you’ll see a pretty comprehensive fitting scheme, with multiple models fitting multiple swing paths. If you are looking for a putter with 1/4 toe hang, you’ll need to check out the Studio Stock or Queen B lines. It’s worth noting that the two mallets are not actually face-balanced, featuring just a touch of toe hang. Though both heads are made of aluminum, the impact feels are markedly different, although one should likely include geometric construction differences in the feel conversation as well.Īs for fit, Bettinardi’s BB putters should match up with straight (BB39 & BB56) and slight-to-strong (BB1 & BB29) swing paths. I could really feel the difference face milling makes when comparing feel between the Super-Fly BB56 and the F.I.T. It’s not as soft as the F.I.T face, but I’ll attest that when you couple Super-Fly milling with carbon steel construction, you get a very soft feel at impact. According to the Bettinardi literature, the Super-Fly face milling will produce a softer feel than the Micro Honeycomb. This too is new for 2018 as the previous BB models all had Micro Honeycomb milling. The 2018 BB putters all feature Bettinardi’s Super-Fly face milling. Instead, I bet this time around it will be golfers saying look at that. The 2018 aesthetics don’t scream look at me like they did in 2016. It’s not just Wiz Khalifa who knows that black and yellow always pop together.Īt the same time though, the new color scheme, when combined with the more traditional shaft, results in a putter that I feel looks like a classic Bettinardi design. Though these BBs lack the lime green and stepless silver shafts of their 2016 ancestors, the black finish – coupled with the yellow paint and grip – still makes a bold statement. ![]() College students, feel free to include bolassic in your next paper. Linguists reading this know that bolassic is the accepted conjugation of bold and classic. If I were to describe the looks of the 2018 BB line in one word it would be bolassic. Perhaps the looks of a putter are not the first thing that one should be concerned with when shopping for a new stick, but I’m willing to admit looks are probably the first aspect of a putter that I check out.
