Spider putter

Anyone using these? How do they compare to your standard blade style putter.

There is no real comparison. It’s a mallet style putter.
I’m a mallet style putter, and I’m not a bug fan of the Spider. I’ve just always like Ping putters. I know people who swear by that putter though.

I have been using the Spider SR Flo Neck model with good results.
Very stable as opposed to the other Spider models.

Used a spider for a while and I liked it.
Now I use an Edel and love it.

Putting and putters are really a personal/trust/comfort issue. However, I will say that I have over 30 blade style and heel shafted putters. I tried the Itsy Bitsy and other mallet putters and could not make them work.......until I tried the slant neck SpiderX.
What a difference (for me) sets up square, easy to align, has a very slight toe hang so no need to force a straight back straight through strike.
Changed my view of the Spider putter. Now I have 2 of them and a garage full of expensive Blade putters.
Give it a shot but give it time.
Your results will vary

I am left handed but swing right handed. I started using my friends left handed mallet that he found similar to the spider. I have so much more touch with it than my White Hot blade. I even sank a 20 foot birdie on 18 to finish. Not sure if I'm going to keep practicing with it or not but thought it was interesting.

I have a Spider Tour, I love it. I’m a mallet style guy though, I used a Nike mallet forever and the Spider is actually lighter than it was

I had one briefly. I loved the way the ball came off of the face, but I couldn’t get it to square up right for me. Sold it to my buddy and he makes a lot of putts with it

I had one for a short time. For me it was great for alignment. But the insert and distance control just didn't click for me. They're nice putters though, assuming they've solved their paint issues

I have used the Ping Wolverine for years now. Seems to have a small sweet spot. Always wanted to switch to an Odyssey but don't wanna spend money on a putter. Odyssey seems much more consistant.

I switched this year to this model and its helped my putting so much. It's like I can't miss sometimes. It's sooooo easy to get the ball moving straight.
