TaylorMade Spider S Putters Review

TaylorMade's Spider franchise has been a popular range of mallet putters, with the new S for 2020 being the latest edition, delivering the most forgiving model yet. 

Spider S is manufactured from high-grade 6061 aluminium and 100-percent machine milled for precision shaping. The square-frame putter head is outfitted with two 48g tungsten sole weights that are strategically placed on the toe and the heel to help stabilise the putter while also optimising CG location.

A heavy tungsten backbar is used to further customise swing weight based on the length of the putter. Coming in 55g, 65g and 80g units, the backbar at the rear of the putter is designed to influence head weight, feel and performance. The heaviest weight (80g) pairs with the shortest putter length (33 inches) and vice versa.

The combination of advanced materials and square shaping promotes high MOI for increased forgiveness and consistent roll on strikes across the face.

But how does it perform under testing? Howley Hall PGA Professional & Golfshake Equipment Expert, Ryan Rastall has reviewed the new Spider S for us.
