BB1

The 2024 BB1 is the standard-bearer of that year's BB Series, carrying forward the classic blade shape that gives the line its name. The maker's page lists the head as milled from 303 Stainless Steel, finished in Black Pearl PVD, with Perpetual Flymill Face Milling across the face. It ships with a Black PVD Tour Grade shaft and a custom electric blue Lamkin Grip, a pairing that puts a bright accent against an otherwise dark, understated head. The putter carries an MSRP of 450 USD and comes with a dual-constructed leather and carbon fiber BB Series magnetic headcover.

This release sits alongside the DASS BB1 Flow within Bettinardi's broader BB lineup that year, the Flow being the version Matt Fitzpatrick used to win the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, milled instead from Double-Aged Stainless Steel with a two-tone black oxide and tour blast finish and what the maker's page describes as "the pre-cursor face milling to our new Roll Control face." The standard 2024 BB1 covered here is a separate build from that Tour piece, distinguished by its Perpetual Flymill face pattern, its 303 Stainless Steel construction, and its Black Pearl PVD finish rather than the Flow's tour-worn two-tone treatment.
