Aloha! Bettinardi celebrates start of season with BB1 Tiki
The Bettinardi BB1 Tiki - time for some sun and waves!
CHICAGO, Illinois (Jan 10, 2016) -- Chicago is a cold
place in the winter. So the folks at Bettinardi enjoy
their annual trip to the PGA Show in Florida, and any
other chances to get a few rounds in.
But wait a minute, the PGA Tour starts its
season in Hawai'i every year, and that got the
Bettinardi team tapping into their inner-Aloha.
"We can't play much in Chicago during the
winter," said Sam Bettinardi, the company's
marketing manager. "But we got inspired by
the warm breezes of Hawai'i and decided to offer a
limited edition of our BB1 putter to start the 2016
season."
