The PGA Tour kicks off its 2015 season this week at the Hyundai Tournament of Champions at the Kapalua Resort in Kapalua, Hawaii, and Bettinardi is celebrating with a limited edition “Aloha DASS” putter that’s inspired by the “Aloha State.”

Enjoy our photos of the putter below, because you’ll likely never see one in person. Only 12 were made.

    I think its a great looking flatstick. I dont understand all the hate in previous comments. Scotty Cameron could take a 5 dollar putter, engrave his name and give it a limited edition headcover and sell it for 5000 dollars. LOL

    Does Bettinardi not know how to soften bumpers? Their designs always look so harsh whichh makes them look cheaper. If I had no awareness of what a Betti means to a handful of people I’d think this kit came from an ABC store on the island.

      If that putter was sitting next to a box of chocolate covered macadamia nuts at the ABC store and both were the same price, I would pick the mac nuts. $1750?! Worth about $17.50. SMH.

        Why is the pineapple on the cover drawn in a completely different style than anything else? Where is the bloody design cohesion? Who has final say in the Bettinardi Fruit Division(BFD)?!?!

    That rainbow design reminds me of the cheap tourist merchandise they sell at the convenience stores here in Hawaii. That putter belongs next to the grass skirts and coconut bras at the ABC store.

Jason Day on his recent switch into Srixon ZX5 and ZX7 MK II irons

Published

on

Over the past year, equipment free agent Jason Day has played a number of different iron sets looking for his right match.

In May 2023, he was using a TaylorMade P770 4-iron to go along with a set of P7MC irons (5-PW).

In August 2023, he had switched to a set of TaylorMade P7TW irons (5-PW) to go with his P770 4-iron.

Then, in February 2024, he was into a full set of P760 irons (4-PW).

Now, Day has switched it all the way up, and he’s currently using a new set of Srixon ZX5 MK II long irons (3 and 4), and Srixon ZX7 MK II mid-to-short irons (5-PW).

On Tuesday at the 2024 RBC Heritage, Day told GolfWRX.com that he made the switch before the 2024 Texas Children’s Houston Open, because he was looking to reduce spin.

“For me, they spin a little bit less,” Day said. “They’re very good out of fairway bunkers, too. I haven’t played too much in the rough yet, so I still need to get an understanding of how the come out of the rough, but for me, it was all about spin control.”

“I had tested the previous model to these [Srixon ZX7’s], but I only had one club. And I was getting some inconsistent spinny with my previous irons, so I just decided to at least give them another shot. My biggest thing was to take spin off, because I was spinning it like crazy.”

The Srixon ZX7 MK II irons are known for producing low spin numbers, and pairing them with Day’s typical ultra-stiff True Temper X7 shafts make them certified spin killers.

If it’s spin he wanted to reduce, then Day may have found his match with the new Srixon irons.
