Have you been struggling on the links of late? Has your long game come up short and your putting turned pathetic? Sure you might just need to practice more, you may need more potassium in your diet, or, just maybe, its cause your golf clubs weren’t designed by auto mechanics.
Marking a century of breathtaking craftsmanship, Bentley has released its limited-edition Centenary Golf Clubs, uniting the worlds of luxury auto and sports.
Gold Limited Edition
Limited to just 100 sets (so you better get in quick), the Centenary Golf Clubs take their design cues from the iconic Continental GT, from the diamond knurling that adorns the grips to the haunched styling of the club heads.
Touches of Centenary Gold are tastefully utilised throughout the collection, mirroring the gold details that appear on every Bentley built during this very special year. These gold details have been meticulously woven into the clubs, creating eye-catching elements that will be sure to make a stylish statement on and off the golf course.
The high-performance clubs are crafted from carbon fibre, titanium and aluminium, while the bag and headcovers are also made from real carbon fibre panels containing the same Centenary Gold detailing as the clubs. Paying tribute to the earlier years of Bentley, replicas of the unique wheel centre caps from the famous EXP Speed 8 winning Le Mans car decorate both the wood heads and grip end caps.
Bentley Golf Centenary Set
Multi-material technology has been used in the development of the centenary edition irons, making them some of the most powerful and versatile ever made.
The titanium face, together with the carbon-fibre back, adds dampening and enables the weight to be positioned exactly where it is needed, providing unrivalled power and distance.
The collection comprises two wedges (52” and 58” loft), both of which have fully CNC milled faces with full-face grooves and back cavities. Designed in a classic teardrop shape, each wedge has a versatile, rounded sole that can be used in the most difficult of terrain.
Consisting of a driver, fairway, utility and hybrid, each wood featured the signature haunch line design from the Continental GT to the crown and sole, along with carefully positioned Bentley ‘B’ screws.
The driver, fairway and utility all contain shaft interchangeability, while the hybrid is designed to replace the long irons. The driver features a full 6-4 titanium body and high spec face which is cryogenically frozen for enhanced performance.
Using a combination of technical materials to offer differing levels of weight and firmness, the Putter is a high-performance piece which provides unparalleled support with off-centre strikes, aiding the most notice of players.
The main body of the Putter is comprised of high density 303 steel and super soft aluminium, which is complemented by the exclusive Centenary carbon fibre detailing.
A Bag Your Bentley Would be Proud Of
All this goodness is packaged into a handcrafted tour bag with a brushed black finish, designed with the perfect balance of luxury and practicality in mind. The industry-first carbon fibre panelling features Bentley’s Centenary Gold accents, as well as internal pockets that replicate the distinctive diamond quilting pattern of Bentley interiors.
Like the set, each bag is individually serialised and also features the hand-stitched Centenary logo in recognition of Bentley’s 100th anniversary.
