Hogan Bettinardi Putters

I was looking around at golf shops over the weekend for nothing really, and I kept seeing this lime green gripped putter. It is a Ben Hogan Bettinardi Hawk. I putted with it for quite some time at one shop and really liked it. I was hitting the cs 34" model. They had a sale on them for 70 bucks which I didn't think was too bad. Does anyone know much about these putters? Also I notice that they make a baby ben bettinardi in a cs model as well. How to the two compare? I may have to pick one up the hawk had great feel and alignment.

I don't like the Hawk at all. Can't really say why, it just didn't fit my eyes right.

I have a bunch of Bettinardi putters. I do like the CS Baby Ben.

My favorite is my CS BHB8-C. :love:

Why would you need to lay it on the ground?

My wife picked up a Baby Ben for $49 at Dick's and loves it...says it's very balanced.

Of course, after the $10 off coupon she had and the $20 gift card, she walked out with a $19 putter. She was gonna love that deal no matter what!

I know- I was just goofin' w/ ya.

That's why you have to try clubs for yourself before making a decision.

That putter is my favorite but you would hate it- ya know!!

Thanks for your replies. No one around here has the baby ben's so I was just looking for a comparison. Is the face size on the baby ben comparable to the hawk?
