TaylorMade Spider GT Notchback

Exceptional for the size - the highest MOI ever created by a mid-size mallet Spider, the notch cut from the back pushing weight to the edges, two 86g dual-tungsten heel-and-toe weights adding stability and forgiveness. Among the most forgiving mid-mallets, though a smaller head than the full-size GT Max.

A standout - the Pure Roll co-molded insert uses silver aluminium beams at a 45-degree angle to improve topspin across the face, a consistent forward roll. Among the better putters for distance control.

More workable than most Spiders - the CG is positioned further forward than the other GT putters, making face rotation easier for those with movement in their stroke, a small-slant hosel option creating 30 degrees of toe hang alongside the face-balanced single bend. A high-MOI mid-mallet that still suits a slight arc better than the bigger Spiders.

Solid and firm - the firmer co-molded insert is black TPU urethane with silver aluminium beams, a positive, responsive strike. A solid, slightly firmer feel than the softer GT Max - the urethane insert gives a connected strike.

A clean, muted note - the co-molded urethane insert dampens impact, a controlled acoustic. A clean, muted note, a touch firmer than the GT Max.

Among the best - the most classical shape of the GT family, traditional mid-mallet shaping with the longest sightlines of the new Spiders, the notch framing the ball with a clear black alignment line, a stable head you don't notice at address. A clean, traditional look for players who don't want a futuristic profile.
