Where it wins
- Looks91
- Distance90
- Feel89
Watch
Rated highest for looks and distance; its softest dimension is workability.
You have always putted with a blade and want a little help without losing the release.
You putt straight, or you want the steadiest head the range offers.
Pros
- More face rotation than any Spider before it, for a committed arc
- A blade player's stroke in a body that still helps on a miss
- A single plain line, if the full path marking is too much
- The scorched finish is the pick of the range to look at
Cons
- Weight this far forward costs real stability against its stablemates
- Right-handed only, so left-handers are shut out
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentPushing the weight even nearer the face costs it stability, and this is the least steady head in the range.
Distance
Class-leadingThe ball comes off at a speed you can read, which is what keeps long putts honest.
Workability
SolidThirty-three degrees of hang over the most forward weight Spider builds, so the face swings freely.
Feel
ExcellentFirm and quick off the insert, closer to a milled blade than the mallets around it.
Sound
ExcellentA short, contained note that gives away less about the strike than the tone suggests.
Looks at address
Class-leadingA scorched bronze finish over a compact body, with one plain line and nothing else to read.
