TaylorMade Spider 5K-ZT Counter Balance Putter

Who’s It For?

Zero-torque putters are the hottest thing in golf right now, and the Spider 5K-ZT Counter Balance Putter is one of TaylorMades new premium offerings. Specifically designed for golfers who prioritize exceptional stability and precise alignment in their putting stroke, Its low torque shaft design and high MOI construction cater to players seeking to minimize face rotation and maintain a consistent stroke path. The unique sole shaping accommodates various putting styles and ball positions, while the milled True Path™ alignment aids those who value clear visual cues for accurate setup. The counter-balancing technology, achieved by adding weight to the grip end, helps to quiet the hands and promote a more pendulum-like motion. This design is especially beneficial for players looking to reduce wrist action and maintain a stable putter face throughout their stroke, leading to improved accuracy and distance control.

The Tech Story

The TaylorMade Spider 5K-ZT Counter Balance Putter is engineered for exceptional stability and precise alignment, featuring a low torque design achieved through a KBS putter shaft bored directly toe-ward near the CG with a 1° shaft lean and 25mm onset. Its uniquely shaped sole is specifically crafted to complement this hosel configuration, accommodating various player types and ball positions to promote a consistent and repeatable stroke. The putter's stability is further enhanced by a construction that combines high-density stainless steel and low-density aerospace-grade aluminum, resulting in a high MOI design that allows the shaft to sit closer to the face. For improved accuracy, the milled True Path™ alignment system incorporates tour-inspired lines the width of a golf ball, assisting golfers in properly indexing to the center of the face. Finally, the black Pure Roll™ insert, made from Surlyn and aluminum with 45° angled grooves, encourages optimal forward roll while providing enhanced sound, feel, and overall roll characteristics.
