Designed around four distinct shapes, Bettinardi’s 2023 Queen B Series aims to combine premium materials (and aesthetics) with subtle design improvements to build upon one of the putter manufacturer’s most popular putter lines.
Designed from a durable 303 stainless steel, each Queen B putter features a new caramel copper PVD finish that’s designed to pop on the green. At the same time, Bettinardi confirmed the finish is glare-resistant, so there’s no need to worry about using these wands on a sunny day.
“The Queen B Series of putters has always been a timeless creation milled right here in Tinley Park, Illinois,” said Sam Bettinardi, Bettinardi’s president. “With its eye-catching finish, classic Bettinardi appearance, and stunning machine work, the [Queen B] line produces some of the most coveted putters in the game of golf.”
Bettinardi had previously used a Honeycomb face milling to soften the overall feel at impact, but the latest version is designed to enhance feel even further. According to Bettinardi, a newly developed Mini Honeycomb milling pattern utilizes “an 8 percent smaller machine tool in order to provide the softest Honeycomb face to date.”
“By utilizing an even smaller machining tool during the milling process, we were able to remove more material from the face of the putter, creating a softer feel at impact,” said Bob Bettinardi, Bettinardi’s CEO and founder. “Since 1998, Bettinardi putters have been world-renowned for our Honeycomb face milling. Twenty-five years later, my patented face continues to evolve and produces one of the most recognizable looks and feels in golf.”
The Queen B lineup consists of two previous models (6 and 11), as well as two brand-new head shapes (14 and 15). Each putter retails for $430 and will be available for pre-order on Nov. 22 on Bettinardi’s website, and at official Bettinardi dealers on Jan. 17.
