What’s New in the 2025 Bettinardi Queen B Putter Lineup
The Queen B series didn’t settle for subtle upgrades this year. It’s been reshaped, rebalanced and refined to give you better feel, smarter design and more confidence at address.
Updated Models and Designs
Six models make up the new Queen B series: QB6, QB6 SBS, QB7, QB8, QB8 Centre, and the all-new QB16. Some return with smarter weighting and reshaped bumpers. Others debut with neck designs that better match modern stroke paths. Each head is milled from a single block of 303 stainless steel and finished in Royal Rose PVD.
Face Milling and Feedback
This year, the Mini Honeycomb™ face gets even softer, with less bite and more feel. The pattern still gives you consistent contact, but now it’s tuned for better distance control and smoother feedback, especially on quick greens.
Center of Gravity Repositioned
Forget mishits punishing your score. Bettinardi shifted weight to place the sweet spot where your natural stroke finds it. That means more putts starting online and fewer heart-stopping lip-outs. Whether you play a straight path or arc, there’s a Queen B built for it.
Visual Confidence at Address
That Royal Rose PVD finish isn’t just a pretty face. It reduces glare and sharpens your visual cues. When the sun’s high or shadows sneak across the green, your sightline stays clean and focused. It’s like lining up putts in 4K.
#1 - QB6 – Wide Body Blade, Spud Neck
Meet the QB6. It doesn’t scream for attention—but it doesn’t have to. This wide-body blade is all business, especially if you prefer a straight-back, straight-through stroke. It’s face-balanced, center-focused and easy to square up from the first tee to the last knee-knocker.
Built for Stability
The spud neck keeps the face stable without handsy corrections. It naturally returns to square. Pair that with a reworked CG, and the ball stays on line with less effort. Miss slightly, and the putter won’t punish you. It absorbs the miscue and still gives the ball a fighting chance.
Address Setup That Just Feels Right
There’s weight, but no clunk. The head shape is wide, but never bulky. From the moment you set it down, it feels centered—like you’re already lined up to drain it. The top line is clean, without distractions or glare, thanks to the Royal Rose PVD finish.
Feedback Without Harshness
The Mini Honeycomb™ face adds just the right texture. You’ll feel your putts, but it won’t sting your hands. Every stroke tells you what happened, and what to fix on the next roll.
#2 - QB6 SBS – Slant Neck Variant
This one’s for the player who swings on an arc and wants their putter to flow with them, not fight back. The QB6 SBS keeps the wide-body shape of the standard QB6 but shifts the balance with a clean slant neck. It’s all about toe hang and better feel through impact.
Built to Release
The slant neck adds toe hang, giving you a natural release as you come through the ball. If you’ve ever wrestled with a face-balanced putter that felt stuck open, this one frees you up. It moves with your stroke instead of against it.
Confidence at Address
There’s something about the SBS setup that locks your eyes on target. The compact offset and angled neck give you a clean view of the ball and alignment line. It frames everything tight. You feel ready to roll it, not just hit it.
Forgiveness with Bite
It’s forgiving, but not mushy. The weight’s in the right spots. The Mini Honeycomb™ face delivers just enough grab to keep your speed consistent, even when your tempo isn’t. Miss a little, and it still tracks. Pure it, and you’ll know.
#3 - QB7 – Compact Symmetrical Mallet
It looks like a mallet, but feels like a blade. The QB7 walks the line between both, making it the oddball in all the right ways. It’s compact, balanced and built for players who want shape without bulk.
Clean Lines, No Distractions
The symmetrical design and crescent neck work together to keep the head balanced through your stroke. At address, it looks square and steady. No offset tricks. No visual noise. Just you, the ball and a clean path to the hole.
Moderate Toe Hang, Maximum Flow
The QB7 isn’t rigid. It’s got just enough toe hang to encourage natural rotation without overdoing it. If your stroke arcs slightly, this putter feels like it’s reading your mind. It follows your hands, then squares up without being forced.
Stable, But Nimble
Despite its mallet shape, the QB7 doesn’t feel sluggish. The 362-gram head glides across the turf. You feel the weight in the stroke, but never fight it. The Mini Honeycomb™ face gives it that gentle pop that tells your hands exactly what you did.
#4 - QB8 – Wide Blade with Mini Plumber’s Neck
If you want toe hang with some heft, the QB8 brings both. This wide-body blade comes with a mini plumber’s neck that leans into strong-arc strokes. It’s square, sharp and ready to punish anything off-line.
Square Shape, Clean Strike
Everything about the QB8 says structure. From the squared-off edges to the cavity shaping, it frames the ball like a picture frame on fast greens. The geometry helps your brain commit to the line. Once you do, the rest just feels automatic.
Strong Arc? You’re in Business
That mini plumber’s neck introduces serious toe hang. It rewards a fluid, confident stroke with clean rotation. If your natural motion swings inside and opens the face a touch, the QB8 will help you square it at the finish, not fight it.
Balanced for Forgiveness
This head is heavy, but in the right way. It’s not clunky; it’s stable. The 362 grams give you tempo and consistency. Add the Mini Honeycomb™ face, and it’s a blend of soft feel and audible feedback. You know when you center it.
#5 - QB8 Centre – Center Shafted
Not everyone swings like a metronome. But if your stroke stays straight and your hands stay quiet, the QB8 Centre fits like a glove. It’s the same squared profile as the QB8, now with a center-shafted build that eliminates twist and guesswork.
Center Shaft, Center Control
The shaft runs straight into the middle of the head. There is no offset or toe hang. You get pure face balance and a dead-straight return path. The setup makes it simple: line it up, pull it back, send it through. No surprises mid-stroke.
Visual Simplicity, Real Confidence
From above, it’s clean. The squared flange and bold alignment line put you right behind the ball. The shaft angle keeps your hands level, not pressed forward. It’s one of those setups that quiets the noise in your head.
Forgiveness Without Float
The head still weighs in at 362 grams, so it stays down through contact. But it doesn’t feel floaty. The Mini Honeycomb™ face gives it firmness, with just enough feedback to tell you if you missed the center. You probably won’t.
#6 - QB16 – New Blade with Plumber’s Neck
Here’s the sleeper of the lineup—the QB16. New name, but familiar feel. It blends the soul of a classic blade with a wider flange and a plumber’s neck that delivers clean control through the arc.
Classic Shape, Modern Tweaks
It looks like something you’ve seen before, but it performs like nothing else. The flange is stretched just enough to add stability without making the head feel bulky. There’s room to breathe behind the ball, but the shape stays traditional.
Mid Arc, Pure Roll
The plumber’s neck offers a moderate toe hang, ideal for players who have a natural arc in their stroke but don’t want the head flipping open. The CG placement is spot on. You’ll feel it square up naturally without manipulating your hands.
Feel That Talks Back
Every putt gives feedback: Crisp but never harsh. The Mini Honeycomb™ face softens the blow without dulling the message. You’ll know if you missed, and by how much.
Face Milling Technology: Mini Honeycomb™ Explained
The Mini Honeycomb™ face is the Queen B’s secret weapon. Milled into 303 stainless steel, its shallow hex pattern reduces surface contact, helping the ball start rolling faster with less skid.
It’s soft, but not dull. You get clean feedback on every putt. Flush hits feel smooth. Misses let you know without punishing your hands.
Compared to Flymill or Roll Control, Mini Honeycomb™ offers a firmer, more responsive feel, ideal for quick greens and confident strokes.
Royal Rose PVD Finish: Form Meets Function
The Royal Rose PVD finish isn’t just a head-turner; it’s a performance tool. This soft, pink-gold coating cuts glare, resists wear and brings a tour-ready vibe without screaming for attention.
Where it shines most is at setup. The finish gives clear contrast against the ball and turf, helping you align instinctively. It’s subtle, but once you see it, you won’t want to go back.
As for durability, it holds. Bettinardi doesn’t do delicate. The PVD layer bonds to the stainless steel head, protecting it from scratches, rust and repeated bag chatter.
Fit and Customization Options
Golfers don’t all swing the same—and Bettinardi knows it. The Queen B 2025 lineup offers just enough customization to feel personal without overwhelming you with choices.
Shaft Lengths and Grip Choices
Every model comes in 33″ to 38″ lengths, letting you perfect posture and comfort. The stock grip is the Lamkin Sink Fit Navy, a no-frills performer with just enough texture. If you prefer something chunkier, there’s a jumbo option ready to go.
Weight, Loft and Lie Specs
All Queen Bs use a 362g head, giving a steady feel through the stroke. Loft is fixed at 3°, and lie at 70°—a proven combo that suits most putting setups. The key variable is toe hang, which varies model to model, so you can match it to your stroke.
Right- and Left-Hand Availability
Most models are built for right-handed players, but a few, like the QB6 and QB8, have lefty versions available. It’s not across the board, but it’s more than some brands offer.
Accessories and Add-Ons
Bettinardi didn’t stop at performance; they wrapped the Queen B series in style and substance from top to toe.
Magnetic Headcovers That Don’t Quit
Each Queen B ships with a magnetic closure headcover, built to stay on without the hassle. It opens clean, shuts tight and looks sharp in your bag. The stitching, the logo, the weight—it’s all there.
Custom Build Options
If you want to tweak the specs, you can. Custom length, grip, shaft upgrades, even limited-run finishes; Bettinardi lets you make it your own.
Limited Editions Worth the Hype
Every so often, Bettinardi drops blackout runs, Hive exclusives or anniversary editions. They sell fast, look wild and hold value. Miss one, and it might not come back.
One version available right now is the Queen B 6 Anniversary Edition; make sure you check it out.
Frequently Asked Questions
If you have any questions before you roll one in with the Queen B, these answers clear the fog so you can focus on finding the perfect fit.
Which Bettinardi Queen B model is best for women or golfers with smaller hands?
You’ll want to look at the QB7 or QB8 Centre. These models offer compact profiles and balanced weighting, making them easier to control for players with smaller hands. The cleaner setup and lighter feel improve grip stability without adding tension to the stroke.
Can I order a Queen B 2025 putter with a custom engraving or length?
Yes. Bettinardi allows custom lengths ranging from 33″ to 38″, and engraving options are available through authorized fitters and dealers. If you want initials, a logo or a meaningful phrase, it can be etched to make the putter yours.
Is the Royal Rose PVD finish prone to scratches or wear?
No. The PVD coating is built to last. While no finish is invincible, the Queen B’s Royal Rose coating resists scuffs and wear better than most.
How do the Queen B putters differ from the BB Series in terms of feel?
The Queen B line uses the Mini Honeycomb™ face for a softer strike. BB Series models, by contrast, tend to feel firmer off the face due to Flymill or Roll Control™ milling. If you prefer a gentler touch on fast greens, Queen B is where it’s at.
Does Bettinardi offer trial or demo options before buying?
Yes. Many authorized fitters stock demo putters for in-store testing. You can also find Queen B putters in fitting studios that offer SAM PuttLab or Quintic Ball Roll analysis to help you pick the right model.
What’s the difference between QB6 and QB6 SBS models?
Both share the same wide-body blade shape. The difference lies in the neck. The QB6 has a spud neck, which gives it a face-balanced feel, great for straight strokes. The QB6 SBS uses a slant neck, introducing toe hang for golfers with more arc in their stroke.
Final Thoughts
If you’re chasing confidence on the green, the 2025 Queen B series brings the goods. Bettinardi refined every line, groove and finish to give you more control without overcomplicating the stroke.
Each model delivers something distinct. Whether you want toe hang for your arc or a face-balanced build for your straight path, it’s here. The Mini Honeycomb™ face softens the strike. The Royal Rose PVD finish boosts alignment. The 362g head anchors the stroke with rhythm.
Compared to the Antidote or BB Series, Queen B blends tradition with feel. It’s less techy than the SB line and more sculpted than BB. It sits right in the sweet spot—refined, familiar and deadly when it matters.
The only real question: which Queen will rule your bag?
