Bettinardi

Why we like it

Designers of mallet putters can be guilty of over-engineering everything – from moment of inertia to centre of gravity – and forget about how the face feels at impact. That’s why the Bettinardi team uses the tour-preferred 303 stainless steel from its blade putters in a single piece at the front of these four large mallets. A back piece of softer aluminium provides the stability and alignment features mallet users demand.

• Four models (6.0, 6.5, 9.0, 10.0) with four hosel types (spud neck, slant neck, pa  lumber’s neck, centre shaft); head weight: 360 grams (400 grams for armlock versions); lengths: 33-38 inches and 41 inches; loft: 3 degrees
