what is this boards opinion on Taylormade Spider putters?

I like the look of them and I like the fact that they are mallet style but not huge and bulky. I'm looking into a new putter and these are at the top of the list for me
Any fans?

That is the exact putter I have. I like it. Having said that, I am terrible at putting and never practice. So, I'd probably putt just as well with a putt-putt putter.

FYI ...
Club Champion is offering free putter fitting all month (September).
That is only if you buy a club from them... The problem is, a new high end putter is like $300... You can find one 1-2 years old on ebay for less than 1/2 of theat.
Cheaper to pay the $100 fitting and buy the club used somewhere else

Too face balanced for me. I like a blade with toe hang

Interested to hear reviews from others. I've went through a few different Odysseys & Scotty Camerons in the last year, and just sold my Toulon this morning.

I think they make some heel shafted with toe hang. I’m the same way don’t like face balanced.

Well I’ve been using a face balanced putter for 12 years now so

They have about 35* of toe hang, which is pretty close to an anser style. Unless you use an 8802

Have a Bettinardi mid mallet I really like. I don’t really like how the spyda looks but if you make putts who cares

Do you know if your stroke is rounded or straight back? Whatever you get needs to have the right toe hang for your stroke and length so you're looking directly over the putter and intended line. Everything else just feel and what you like to look at. If it fits those things that will be a great putter.

I bought one off eBay and used it for a couple of rounds. Absolutely love the way the ball came off the insert. Felt like you could stroke through every putt with confidence. I could not get it to align right for me. Shaft was too long and it was too upright for my stroke. I brought it to Buddha for my fitting and ended up going in a different direction, but I think if you get the right model for your specs, it’ll be a gamer for you for sure. I have several buddies that swear by them

It’s the perfect size. You can jam the handle in the ground and have a place to rest your beer and cheeseburger. Very versatile putter

I played one for a while and never felt comfortable with it. Switched back to a blade for a little bit. Now I’m gaming an Ardmore 3 and I love it.

I thought the same but it’s much lighter than it looks. Easy to start it back on the right line. Try it out in a pro shop or Golf Galaxy.
I use an older Odyssey Versa that works for me but the Spider would probably be my move if I went in another direction.

Has all but eliminated 3 putts for me FWIW
I came from a scotty newport that I couldn't hit 5 footers straight at the hole.
I have the navy spyder x.
