The Record

Written from the sources it cites · machine-drafted for the Community to correct

The Antidote Series 2025 is built around Bettinardi's Simply Balanced technology, described on the maker's page as a "zero torque" system with the shaft inserted at the head's Center of Gravity, aimed at what the maker's page calls a torque-free stroke through precise shaft location and geometry balanced around center of gravity. The line comes in two heads, the SB1 and SB2, with the maker's page listing the SB1 as also available in Counterbalance and the SB2 available in Counterbalance, Left Hand, and Left Hand Counterbalance.

The heads are 303 Stainless Steel per the maker's page, with F.I.T. Face milling that the maker's page states removes 55% of the face material for what it calls a soft, responsive feel. That's paired with a Sapphire Blue anodized 6061 Military Grade Aluminum pocket insert and a Diamond Blast and Sapphire Blue finish, which the maker's page says reduces glare at address, laid over a topline and two flange lines on the chassis. TGI Golf's coverage lines up with these specs and adds that the putter went to pre-order with UK distributor JS Golf Brands, shipping February 2025, a detail not corroborated elsewhere in this record.

On the balance claims, Community opinion holds that the series delivers square-to-square balance throughout the entire stroke, said to enhance consistency and confidence while carrying what's described as the signature Bettinardi Golf look and feel. Sam Bettinardi, President of Bettinardi Golf, is quoted on the maker's site saying "The new Antidote putter series is the result of two years of dedicated work, involving countless prototypes to perfect every detail."
