Bettinardi’s military-inspired, limited-run 2019 BB-8 Wide Armageddon putters


    As with its 2017 and 2018 custom releases, Bettinardi is launching a limited-run of 2019 “Armageddon” putters inspired by the military, with a portion of the putters’ proceeds going to the Veteran Golfers Association. The VGA is “dedicated to enriching the lives of Veterans and their family members through the camaraderie and sportsmanship of golf,” according to its website.

    The 2019 Armageddon putter release, designed by Robert J. Bettinardi, is a custom BB-8 Wide head model that’s precision-milled from Soft Carbon steel. It weighs 355 grams, and it has a “full tactical” F.I.T. face (Feel Impact Technology) and Honeycomb face milling that the company has popularized.

    Military insignias inspired the engravings on the neck, heel and back bumpers. Also, the putter comes with a “Sniper Grey” finish that’s hand-painted with a navy-grey-and-white color scheme.

    The BB-8 Wide Armageddon putters will hit specialty dealers, and the company’s “The Hive” online, on May 23, but only 250 putters will be available. They will sell for $550 each, and they’ll come with a Made in USA headcover and a red Lamkin Deep Etched Cord grip.
