Robert Bettinardi, the premier putter designer known around the world, has partnered with VGM Club to offer members a special program on the highest quality milled putters in the world.

Bettinardi Golf provides unmatched quality milled products, fully Made in the U.S.A. to the golfer and consumer who wants the best of the best. You will be pleasantly surprised by the product quality, the level of support and customer service Bettinardi Golf showers on its customers.

The 2011 product line will showcase the next step in Bettinardi evolution. This expanded product offering consists of eleven newly designed models. Bettinardi Golf’s wish is that the design and execution of each putter manufactured will exceed the expectations of even the most discriminate golfer.

Mike Scully, Head Pro at Medinah Country Club, stated, "Bettinardi Golf has done a marvelous job with our putters and custom buckles. Our members absolutely love them and the quality of his product and service is unsurpassed."

In 2011 Bettinardi Golf is offering the second installment of Country Club Series Putter. This heel-shafted mallet design is machined from soft carbon steel and sports your Clubs custom logoed specifications on the sole of the putter. Your logo will be skillfully recreated and crafted to showcase the pride and history of your Club. Each year, Bettinardi will introduce a new CC Series model to ensure the Club and its members receive a unique and rare collectable. In addition, any Club recognized as a "Top 100" are eligible to have "Top 100" engraved on the sole and a unique "Top 100" headcover.

"The Buckle" milled by Bettinardi Golf is the perfect design element to complete your Bettinardi experience. Milled under the same exacting standards as their putters, the Buckle encompasses precision craftsmanship, customization and fashion. The Buckle is available in two sizes - 1 ¼ " and 1 ½ " and may be frosted or paint-filled to your specifications. Bettinardi renderings are sent for final approval before the milling process begins. The custom, hand-made straps, available in 9 different colors are also interchangeable to fit your style of the day. Numerous Bettinardi Buckles are seen on the PGA Tour, Green Grass locations across the country and in Corporate America.
