I'd have to go with the half moon mallet. LEFTY, plumber's neck. That said, it's the studio, in reality, I let them analyze my stroke, tendencies and have them advise to the best match.

 

I'd like to see a classic handcut filigree flowing out from the toe on the underside, just curving around onto the top side for a small reveal. On the toe, I would have my son's and my father's birth dates stamped. The whole thing would have a black chrome flamed finish - stealth filigree. The ball alignment cavity would be blasted to a flat black and have an aiming line made of a double engraved stroke to match a signature look of my wife's wedding ring all painted details would be in maroon and orange - our wedding colors.

 

Headcover would be in the same wedding color theme. I would want a world map them with arcs representing flights. It represents a very important promise my wife and I made to our son's birth mother.

 

What an opportunity, thanks Bettinardi.

Really love the shape of the BB39 Proto.

 

Would have:

 

Micro-honeycomb face

Black oxide finish

Red alignment line

Red Bettinardi B stamped on the face under the neck

Red skull and crossbones on the back of the face as an alignment aid if looking from behind.

Skull and Bettinardi name on the sole in red

 

Thank you WRX and Bettinardi!

BBzero is my all time favorite. Best putter on the market in my eyes. If I ever won or could afford this would be the one I would want. I would change the color fills to either blue and white or green and white but this beauty will look good no matter what.

Wow, this would be really cool!

 

I like the BB8 Tri, and I'd probably want to go with a shiny black finish, like in the photos of the "Urban" line, but without the silver neck. I like a pretty clean look, so something like the carbon insert in the cavity of the soft carbon series, and then just a Hex B logo on the sole in a bright green and white would look pretty great to my eye.

AWESOME!!!! I love my Bettinardi's and this would be dream come true.

 

So...as much as I love the JAM designs...I'd have to go with a BB8 (likely the wide body)....the Tri-plane has more rounded bumpers and doesn't fit my eye...

 

https://bettinardi.com/hive-archive/bb8-wide-raw-release/

 

So...if we're talking about constructing a personalized...one of a kind Bettinardi...I almost have the perfect one at home, but perfection is always one step away...so here goes my perfect Bettinardi:

 

Flow/Knurl-neck BB8 Wide DASS with standard jeweled milling (no FIT FACE) in a purplish flamed finish. Alignment aid would be a site-dot on the topline filled in with white paint. The cavity would list Bettinardi in white and a Kool-Aid man stamping in red. The sole would be mostly blank...but I could be talked into a Kool-Aid stamping near the neck side of the sole and a Bettinardi stamping that is offset on an edge of the sole toward the toe. On the face...I'd be want something stamped by the neck...not sure what...but might be good with keeping the Kool-Aid stamping going. I'd love to see some copper plugs through the bottom of the face and into the bumpers. If possible with the copper plugs in the bumpers...I wouldn't mind seeing just my initals "JRH" stamped into one of the bumpers.

 

The putter would be 34" long, 350 gram head, 3*-4* of loft (based on testing my optimum set-up), likely 1*-2* flat and all of this would be capped off with a Red/White Kool-Aid man headcover.

 

Every time I would sink a putt with this putter, I would yell, "OH YEAH!!!"

OH MY WORD!!! :o :o :o

 

HOW DOES ANYONE MAKE A DECISION WITH THIS???!!!???!!!

 

BB8, Minovai, BBzero, HMM!!! All the Bettis! But if I could only pick one... https://bettinardi.com/hive-archive/tour-halfmoon-dass/

 

I'd change the sole engraving to something less busy, put variable weights in the sole, add a plumber neck at half shaft offset and a flymill w/ FIT face. And some stamping. (cool)

I love the BB ZERO. Now that I've been collecting a few putters here and there, I've really been wanting to get a Bettinardi BB ZERO. I like the Zombie one linked below but . . .

 

https://bettinardi.com/hive-archive/2017-zombee-stinger-bbzero-plumber/

 

My dream Betti would be a HEAVY BB ZERO DASS like it was made for Darth Vader. I would have everything black, FIT face milling, top line dot alignment aid, naked bumpers, maybe a red Tour Hex somewhere in the back cavity, and then some kind of crazy black/grey/red milling on bottom that shows Vader's helmet or Imperial crest or something like that. I know. I've probably thought about this too much . . .

I missed out on this to purchase but this is my DREAM putter:

 

https://bettinardi.com/hive-archive/zombee-tour-dept-bbzero/

 

I love the look and color!!

 

I would put 3 X's for an alignment line in yellow, the badge would be a Killer Bee, stamped with TOUR ONLY, the hosel lines would alternate yellow and black, black shaft, black grip, 34" same headcover as in picture. the bottom would be a killer bee in the middle with stars for snow in full fill alternating yellow and black.

 

Thank you so much!

Oh my, this would be a dream come true!! LOVE Betti's they just never made a shape I loved til very recently.

 

I'd love a BB56 Left hand with the following additions/changes:

 

The softer honey comb face

Totally matte black paint on the whole head, with the site line being that bright yellow color to match the grip

Matte Black shaft

Small amount of shaft tipping to give the putter ~30* of toe hang

If possible, a non taper grip like Super stroke mid slim 2, but in the yellow color to match

DASS Queen B 8 Tour! https://bettinardi.com/hive-archive/dass-queen-b-8-tour/

 

First I would like to have it CS as there are none out there! Then I would have KINGMAN stamped and filled with Yellow inside the back of the head. On the bottom of the putter I would have the words stamped and centeredon the bottom of the head:

 

LIVE (filled with Red)

ALOHA (filled with Yellow)

PONO (filled with Green)

 

 

Mahalos GolfWRX and Bettinardi for this opportunity!

My one of a kind custom Betty would have to be a BB39 knurled plumbers neck in a patina type finish like the BB8 raw they brought out in the fall. The only markings at address would be a dot sight and a stamp on each rear flange of the betty bee, stinger pointed at target. Other than that, the rest of the putter would be pretty vanilla with the only other markings being a Betty "B" somewhere and my initials in a small area.

Honestly my head's about to explode just thinking about all the options looking through your archive. As someone who sells metal, I love the artwork that does into a lot of your designs, especially through the neck.

 

I don't know how far I could customize it but this SS3 and the QB6 are my favorite head designs. I've love it with a short slant neck, straight shaft and a head around 365g. I'd love a torched finish that leaves it looking different colors at different angles. As for theme, I'd love a combination of hives and/or irish shamrocks with a green font. With a statement like "luck of the irish" or something.

 

Honestly I'd probably ask a lot of questions, figure out all the available options then completely change my mind on what I'd want.
