2023 Studio Stock Series: Bettinardi adds 5 new models
Inspired by a decade of work with tour professionals, Bettinardi Golf announced its 2023-2024 Studio Stock Series putters today, adding five new models to the roster.
The Studio Stock Series features all-new head shapes, including the SS9 Plumber’s neck, SS9 Spud neck, SS14, SS16, and SS35. Each putter is precision milled from a single block of 303 stainless steel and features the company’s Diamond Blast finish.
- All-new Castleton green and jet black paint scheme
- Castleton premium Lamkin Sink Fit grip
- Dual-constructed Castleton green and black perforated Studio Stock Series headcover
- Roll Control Face milling
What Bettinardi says
“Designing the Studio Stock line over the past 15 months has allowed us to create five all-new head shapes, perfect our Roll Control face milling, and produce a line of putters most similar to what you would see on Tour,” said Robert J. Bettinardi, CEO/Founder of Bettinardi Golf. “Using 303 Stainless Steel, in conjunction with our Roll Control face milling, gives golfers the softest feeling one-piece milled putter in the golf market.”
“In just the past two years alone, our Studio Stock putters have helped amass over 12 professional Tour wins, including Bettinardi’s very special 100th professional win by Fred Couples just this past year,” said Sam Bettinardi, President of Bettinardi Golf. “Tour validation has helped our design process ranging from the weight, the feel, the look, and the head shapes, which all-in encompasses our entire Studio Stock Series.”
Additional model details
Product narrative via Bettinardi.
Studio Stock 9 (Spud): “After many one-off appearances in the Hive, Robert Bettinardi remastered the Studio Stock 9, offering his high-toe topline, mid-body blade as a production model for the first time in over a decade. RJB made subtle refinements to bring this putter to the 2023-2024 Studio Stock lineup as a single-bend Spud neck. The SS9 head shape was re-engineered with a more narrow and compact length heel to toe, allowing us to reposition the weight in order to increase the MOI (Moment of Inertia).”
Studio Stock 9 (Plumbers): “The all-new, never-before-seen Studio Stock 9 Plumber’s neck putter is a fresh take on the classic SS9 head shape. Milled from one solid block of 303 Stainless Steel, the one-piece milled Plumber’s neck provides one-third toe hang, perfect for those with a slight to moderate arc in their putting stroke. The high-toe topline gives the putter a classic, Tour-inspired blade appearance, while the mid-body flange design offers a confidence-inspiring view at address.”
Studio Stock 14: “This heel-toe weighted blade offers a distinct appearance from address with its widened flange, flat topline, low profile shoulders, and newly rounded bumpers that melt off the putter head. The SS14 features a plumber’s neck and full shaft of offset that make setup and alignment effortless, while half toe hang facilitates a smooth arc through the putting stroke.”
Studio Stock 16: “The newly redesigned Studio Stock 16 is crafted with key alterations to the head shape and its components, offering a glimpse of its predecessor in an otherwise brand-new putter. This face-balanced mallet maximizes control and stability through the putting stroke by distributing weight evenly to the perimeter of the putter.”
Studio Stock 35: “This compact mallet offers a fresh look with widened shoulders that distribute weight evenly toward the perimeter of the putter, increasing MOI (Moment of Inertia) and making the putter more forgiving for off-center strikes. The Slant neck provides a three-quarter shaft of offset for easy alignment and setup, while one-third toe hang supports players with a slight to moderate arc in their putting stroke.”
