Tour New Bettinardi putters - 2024 The American Express

[GolfWRX_Spotted]

I need some up close shots of the bb2.

[QuigleyDU]

Some of these are not good. Lol

[SylvesterLundgren]

I hope they make a mini inovai 8. I treat that model like it’s their “spider x”  and if they make it smaller and even more compact I think they’d have a winner. 

[PickItUpGolf]

Some beauties there, a couple not so good

[JDTex]

I really like the last center shafted putter. Bettinardi seems to show more love to CS guys than a lot of other makers.

I'm just waiting to see Bettinardi fanboys lust over the Toaster Strudel shaped one.

I like bettinardi. But some of these are literally a brick on a stick looking

Yeah some of these Hexperimental putters should really never see the light of day.

 

But hey can't say they aren't just doing the same old thing, this is what people get when it's not "just another Anser copy"

Very true..

I may be in the minority but I like this.

[Viper4225]

least they are trying instead of snyping! 🙂

That super wide blade/half mallet has my attention. 

[BigtimeHC]

Not sure if it's just me, but I find exactly zero of the Inovai shapes appealing. They all look like a Tommy Armour you'd see at Dick's Sporting Goods

For the most part I enjoy a little bit of an industrial look. But that first putter would look better to my eye with a little more roundness. Maybe if the bumpers were not so squared off it would be more appealing.

I also know that things in pictures tend to look different in hand when there is more perspective. So, while I say my initial reaction is that I am not the biggest fan. Maybe in hand I would say “oh, ok I do like this”.

Well now I want the black Minovai or Innovai or whatever that one with the fangs is

[tatertot]

I think these are all great ...

 

HOWEVER ... is anybody other than Fitzpatrick and Kuchar using a Bettinardi? Seems like a lot of $$$ being spent for little return.

The two putters that are 5th and 6th from the right (counter clockwise) are the updated Inovai 6.0

The ones next to it (one is grey with center shaft) are the updated Inovai 6.5

The last one shown (can't describe shape - isosceles trapezoid with wings?) and the double wide blade style are the new Inovai 9.0 and 10.0.  I believe the double wide QB6 looking blade is the 10.0, but not entirely sure.  Interesting that these are a two-piece putter, so must have had to use aluminum to bring weight down (like Inovai 6.0, 6.5 and 8.0)

Top ranked or name recognition, yes.  But they do have Boom Boom, Kokrak, Alex Fitzpatrick, James Piot, Jim Herman and others I'm sure that I can't remember

 

Lots of women staffers as well, but we all know that doesn't get the same viewership or moves the needle marketing wise as the male tour(s).

I love it. Wide blades are so easy to align.

That's good to hear. I've loved every Bettinardi I ever had.

I know he is not on staff anymore but Molinari did with The Open with a Bettinardi.

Very true, and Rocco Mediate was also a former staffer who made some waves with their putters back in the day (along with Couples, obviously)

Yup, that’s the updated Inovai 6.0.  Sorry if my post was confusing 

[Murdock]

@j4663535 this is the updated Inovai 6.5. Kinda difficult to describe them both without showing, because they are so similar. 

[Go_Blue!]

Please just release a Queen B6 with a top line. Thanks.
