Frankfort, KY (November 13, 2024) – Buffalo Trace Distillery, renowned for its award-winning bourbon, has launched a unique collaboration with Bettinardi Golf, known globally for their precision-milled putters. This exclusive Buffalo Trace x Bettinardi Collaboration combines decades of craftsmanship, innovation, and a commitment to heritage, delivering a one-of-a-kind collection for golf and bourbon enthusiasts.
Introducing the Buffalo Trace x Bettinardi Putter Collection
The Buffalo Trace x Bettinardi putters draw inspiration from the legacy of the American buffalo. They also reflect a pioneering spirit. These putters embody the excellence of both brands. The putter models, including the BB8 Classic, Studio Stock 3, Queen B6, and Queen B6 Left-Handed, are crafted from premium 303 Stainless Steel. Each putter features a unique wood insert crafted from a Buffalo Trace bourbon barrel, adding authenticity to the design. Bettinardi’s signature Fancy Face milling enhances the putters’ smooth feel and performance. The Distressed Slate finish, inspired by bourbon aging, lends a rugged, timeless aesthetic.
To further capture the spirit of Buffalo Trace, each putter is adorned with wood grain engraving and the iconic Buffalo Trace logo on the sole. A Buffalo Trace blade headcover, created specifically for this collaboration, completes this exclusive collection.
