I purchased this putter back in June based off this review and my time in Golf Galaxy trying it. I change putters constantly but since purchasing this putter I’ve gotten rid of my 2 Scotties and a Lab. Went from a 4 to a 0 in a few months. Thanks for the review.

This appears to be exactly the same as the 2022 version. How come it didn’t win then?
If it isn’t exactly the same, what changed?

From Bettinardi website:
“Completely redesigned for 2024, the new INOVAI 6.0 offers a refreshingly clean and modern aesthetic with a stepless wing design for improved optics at address. The sole has been meticulously crafted with Variable Depth Ports to improve COG (Center of Gravity) placement up to a remarkable 27% relative to the center of the face, enhancing stability and performance. The 303 Stainless Steel front piece is milled with our proprietary Roll Control™ face milling, a groove design that promotes forward roll at impact to get the ball into a true roll faster. The optimized weighting of the 6061 Military Grade Aluminum back piece gives the INOVAI 6.0 improved feel and control to match the new look.”

I wonder if the rating would change at all if it had a center shaft? I’m looking to purchase this club but I’m really drawn to the center shaft.
