The Record

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

The BB42 arrived in 2000 as part of Bettinardi's Millennium Series, and on the record it exists as a single release. There's no later revision, no follow-on edition carrying the name forward. Whatever arc the BB42 has is contained entirely within that one year and one head.

What the record does hold is a putter built around weighted brass plugs in the face, verified plainly as fact and corroborated across sources. The maker's page fills in the rest of the picture: 303 stainless steel construction, with brass ingots placed not just in the face but on the flange, heel, and toe as well. That's a fairly deliberate weighting scheme for the era, spreading mass to the perimeter while also using the face plugs to shape feel at impact. The maker describes the combination consistently across its own pages, both the U.S. and U.K. listings agreeing on the placement of the brass ingots.

There isn't a second or third generation to compare it against here, no shift in face material or insert design to trace across years. The BB42 stands as a single data point from the Millennium Series, and what's on record is what it offers: one year, one build, brass-weighted throughout.
