Discover the Best Bettinardi Putters for 2025: A Casual Guide
If you’re a Bettinardi fan like so many of us are, 2025 has brought a smorgasbord of exciting putters to check out! We’ve taken a deep dive into five different models across three categories—mallets, blades, and zero-torque—each offering unique styles and performance features. Let’s break down the test results to help you find the perfect match for your game.
The Lowdown on Bettinardi Putters
So, what’s the verdict on these putters? We’ve been using a metric called PuttView Handicap, which is kinda like Strokes Gained—lower numbers are better. We looked at short, medium, and long putt performances separately, plus an overall average. Here’s how they stacked up:
Model | Category | Overall | Short | Medium | Long |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Bettinardi INOVAI 6.0 | Mallet | –6.8 | –6.8 | –6.4 | –7.0 |
Bettinardi Queen B 7 | Mallet | –4.9 | –3.8 | –2.1 | –9.9 |
Bettinardi Queen B 6 | Blade | –4.1 | –4.8 | +1.1 | –8.0 |
Bettinardi Antidote SB2 | Zero-Torque | –6.7 | –6.4 | –7.7 | –6.0 |
Bettinardi Antidote SB1 | Zero-Torque | –5.5 | –7.4 | –1.5 | –5.9 |
Which One’s for You?
Use this guide to pick the right Bettinardi putter that suits your unique style! In a nutshell, the best mallet was the INOVAI 6.0, while the Queen B 6 took home the title for blades, and the Antidote SB2 shone in the zero-torque category. But let’s take a more in-depth look!
Bettinardi INOVAI 6.0
Let’s kick things off with the Bettinardi INOVAI 6.0, the ultimate high-MOI dual-metal mallet! This beauty features Roll Control™ face milling for that extra forgiving touch. It really excelled across all putt distances, particularly shining on those nerve-wracking short ones where every stroke counts.
Bettinardi Queen B 7
Next up, we have the Bettinardi Queen B 7, a compact, blade-like mallet from the Queen B lineup. This model really nailed those longer putts, scoring a solid –9.9 in long putt performance. However, it could use some improvement on shorter and medium-range shots.
Bettinardi Queen B 6
Now, let’s talk about the classic Bettinardi Queen B 6. With its heavier head and Mini Honeycomb™ milling, this blade putter excelled when it came to lag putting. Just be aware that it can be a bit inconsistent when you’re aiming for those close-range putts.
Bettinardi Antidote SB2
Now for the Bettinardi Antidote SB2, a nifty zero-torque mallet that’s designed to keep the face square thanks to its Simply Balanced™ tech. It really shone during medium-putt testing (–7.7) while also providing solid results on those shorter putts.
Bettinardi Antidote SB1
Last but definitely not least, we’ve got the sleeker Bettinardi Antidote SB1. This zero-torque design features a soft F.I.T. Face™ for a lovely feel, especially on short putts where it ranked in the top-three (–7.4). However, it didn’t fare as well when going for medium and long putts.
Wrapping It Up: So Many Choices!
To sum it all up, Bettinardi putters are definitely holding their ground this year, especially with their zero-torque designs getting major kudos. With a variety of shapes, styles, and alignment systems, you’re bound to find one that fits your stroke beautifully.
