Posted April 7, 200421 yr This is a sweet Bettinardi center-shaft Xcelerator. According to Todd at TKSPutters this is 1 of 35 made and is one of the last Xcelerator prototypes Bettinardi made prior to signing the deal with Hogan. This one is natural silver with a black "T" site line, original shaft and grip. Head is in 9.5 / 10, grip is 9 / 10 and shaft band is 8 / 10. What makes this putter unique, and a genuine collector's item (besides being 1 of only 35 built), is that the area behind the face, that usually has several holes drilled out, has one large hole which gives this putter a "newport beach" sound at impact. Like all Bettinardi's, this one is super solid. Best guess on headweight is 330 - 340g and putter is 35" long. I will post actual pics of the putter Friday, but here is a pic is of the same putter. No headcover, but I will throw in a Hogan Big Ben headcover. This putter is listed at $750 elsewhere... Best offer over $600 gets it shipped in Cont. USA!
