One of the guys at our club turned up with a new Bettinardi putter that he bought off a tour pro. It is called a BC07 and is an 8802 style in a sweet black finish. Does anybody know anything about this putter and if it will be released to the public as it isn't shown on the mizuno website? Cheers, Jenks.

In my Tour bag
Driver - Cyberstar (9*), cut to 43.5 inches long with tonnes of lead tape attatched to the head.
Fairway 909F2 (13.5*), Diamana blue 83 shaft, 42 inches long
Rescues Heaven wood (17*)
909h (21*) Diamana blue shaft Irons Pro M (3-PW), Rifle 5.0 shafts Wedges KZG TRS (52* +...

The Bettinardi 8802 look alike, is being released in spring of 09' to retail sales. A wonderful alternative, that is currently available in limited supply, has been released by Byron Morgan. Well worth a look, IMO

Thanks guys. That Byron Morgan is one sexy putter, what does one of those go for? And where do you get them?

The ones that are currently available are the 25 "Makers Proofs" that were milled from 303 stainless and PVD coated. These are priced around $400, but Byron has indicated that he is going to run a second batch mid-spring. I would bet that they will market at a lower price point. You can reach him at

www.ByronPutters.com . Cheers,

I agree, something about a Bettinardi Black Carbon just feels right! I think $400 is a touch out of my range for a putter at a moment, even one as good as the Byron Morgan, but i'll keep a look out for the second run, cheers, Jenks.

    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
    • Day 128 12-18 Worked on rotation and getting to lead side. Still working on the flow feeling while doing that. Recorded swings. 
    • IMO-the only thing entertaining was the relay race. Everything else was excruciatingly boring...or just  stupid, like the 14-club thing. Watching guys blade wedges into the water over and over is not at all interesting.
