The Record
Written from the sources it cites · machine-drafted for the Community to correctThe Queen B 5 returned to Bettinardi's lineup in 2019 with a black PVD finish the maker calls "murdered out," released nearly two months ahead of what bettinardi.com describes as its January 19 product launch. The head shape runs about 12% smaller than the traditional BB1, precision-milled to a 362-gram head weight and finished with the trademark Micro Honeycomb Face Milling. Five frosted swarming bees on the sole were hand-painted in the special black color scheme, and the release came paired with a black Lamkin Deep Etched Cord Grip, a black chrome shaft, and a matching Made in USA headcover.
On record, the design carried forward cleaner lines, tighter milled radiuses, and softer bumpers, per bettinardi.com. The maker's own page calls it "one of the more sought-after blades Robert Bettinardi has ever produced," a line echoed in the Community's read on this release as well. Within the Queen B line, the 5 sits as a return rather than a debut, distinguished here specifically by its early blackout treatment ahead of the standard launch window.
