I like mine but I swing the putter straight back and straight forward (or atleast attempt to). I had always used a blade and had trouble keeping it square, I find the spider helps that. I'm sure there are better options sub $300 though. Although the DJ model I have looks

Like mammas boy, I have a back & through motion. I have always preferred a mallet, face balanced putter. Used a Zebra for ever, went to a Ping Craz-e when they first came out. Haven't found anything I like better since.

Bettinardi has some of the best CS on top of their excellent putters. BB1 here.

I love it. Mine is face balanced which works with my straight back and through stroke (not much of an arc). I've got a flatso 2.0 grip. It sets up very square and gives you a lot of confidence

I have a spider as well. Used it for 3 months then back to my Betti. As square as it is, I found it tough to get the speed right on faster greens. Probably just me though.

Get in line.

It's the platinum fwiw. And a few people know I'm not gaming it anymore and are trying to get it.

The spider will be my next putter. Tried one out at dicks and love the feel of it.

It ain't the putter, it's the player holding the putter.

Yeah, we know. Thanks for the cliche. The problem is putting is the most mental aspect of the game. When you lose faith in it, you have to change something up.

i've got the platinum one and its so fricking ugly i can hardly look at it, but i do like how heavy it feels (mine is counter balanced). The supply seems to be loosened up now, i went to the golf shop the other day and they had like 20 in there .

I love it. It's my gamer. Best putter out there IMO.

Ended up swapping my scotty Cameron studio select newport 2 for a like new spider tour black. Near even trade by the end of it. Pretty excited.

I like the Ping Karsten Anser 2i and the Ping Karsten Pal 2i.

The Pal has weight heel and toe, is heavier, good for slow greens, both have an insert.

I have a spider and a Bettinardi Bb 54. Love them both. Both face balance. Find the spider a little hotter of the face

Gamed the OG spider back in 2008 then went the itsy bitsy route in 2009. "Best" mallet putter out there IMO.


Just wanted something a little smaller and went center shafted.
