In honor of the PGA Tour’s Hawaiian-swing of tournaments — the SBS Tournament of Champions at Kapalua on the island of Maui, and the Sony Open at Waialae C.C. on Oahu — Bettinardi is releasing a limited-edition BB1 Tiki putter that captures the island lifestyle of Hawaii.

It’s the second straight year the company is releasing a Hawaii-inspired putter, giving Bettinardi enthusiasts another chance at one if they missed Bettinardi’s 2016 BB1 Tiki putters.

2017 BB1 Tiki Limited-Run putters

The putter, which is milled from soft, mild carbon steel, has a “Smoked Bronze” PVD finish. Ocean waves and a Tiki Totem are engraved on the sole, and the face of the putter has a special Polynesian-inspired F.I.T. Face, a milling design that removes material from the putter face for a softer feel.

Bettinardi’s BB1 Tiki putters are available in right-hand only, and in the following specs:

Weight: 355 grams
Toe Hang: 1/4 toe hang
Lie Angle: 70 degrees
Loft: 3 degrees

Only 150 putters are available starting on January 11, and can be purchased from select Bettinardi retailers for $500 each.

“Hawaii-inspired putter” At first these specialty putter manufactures thought we were fools. Now they are just laughing right in our face.
