Me too. I’m usually against paying $80 for a HC but I love pizza and how this looks. Wished it was magnetic and really hope the velcro is better than what’s on the standard HC

Played my first round with this putter. Greens were running over 14 on the stimp and 25 mph wind gust. Brutal conditions. All things considered, I putted very well. Excellent touch and alignment.

 

Our pro shop had 6 or 7 in stock. Had been testing one for a while. Strange - I noticed a definite feel difference between two identical putters - same neck / grip / etc. Hard to quantify. Anyone else notice something similar?

I did notice that on a couple when they first came out but chalked it up to strike. Best putter I’ve ever gained

I’ve been using a 2016 Scotty Cameron Newport 2. I have tried the DJ Spider Tour but this Spider X with the more compact size looks and feels great!

Anyone know if TM is going to release any more stock headcovers? Maybe the stock one but in black?

I would say if you know someone who is competent with a bending bar it won’t be an issue. I had mine bent 1* strong and 2* upright and didn’t have any issues with paint chipping etc

If it wears anything like the previous gen Spyder the paint is going to chip a bunch anyway unless you’re unbelievably careful.

The slant neck is so small that I don't even use a bar when I've bent mine. I just get it clamped in the jig and apply force on the shaft down near the neck to bend it. Works fine to make changes of a degree or two.

 

Actually saw a pic from a couple years ago on the TM Tour Truck of one of their tech's bending Day's Itsy Bitsy in this way.

I bought the Navy with white true path and the tie hang. I must’ve spent multiple hours rolling different putters at my local PgaSS.

 

It’s been a few years since I dropped $350 plus tax on a putter. That stung a bit.

 

My previous recent in the bag were a Ping ZB 2.0 copper and a Ping Tyne H Sigma G.

 

My handicap is around 10, I’m left handed and my short game is my weakness. I’ve gone back and forth on my putting grip/stroke the past year in a quest for more consistency.

 

For an off the rack putter this Spider X IMHO is the best putter I’ve used in like pretty much ever.

 

Other posters have mentioned that this putter can cause the occasional push putt. With right hand low grip (I’m lefty) I’ve just been dialed in a way I cannot remember.

 

My normal miss is a pull so maybe this push tendency helps me?

 

I’ve previously and wanted to love numerous other insert putters mostly from Odyssey. For me, the odyssey O works was just too mushy marshmallow to the point where I had no “touch”

 

This TM insert seems to be a great match. The ball gets off rolling very quickly and easily. I agree with others that I can feel somewhat “hot” on faster greens.

 

The putter alignment works so well and allows me to just focus on speed, which in turn keeps my putts on line for longer. The relationship of knowing that a putt will stay online where you’re aiming has given a sense of confidence that I’ve never experienced before.

 

Short putt performance has been great. It’s the +10’ range where I’ve seen some serious change. The last couple years I’ve have not been making “my share” of the longer putts it seems. It’s been great to see some longer putts stay online and drop.

 

Final note*. The putter I bought from the PGASS was in the plastic. Upon bringing to the course day 1 my putter had 2 significance scuffs/ dings in the visible address area. I figured I couldn’t argue a wear mark after I left the store. It hasn’t changed my love if the putter. But to have it dinged and not be my fault sort of irks me after giving out $379 tax incl.

I just moved on from my Newport 2 to my first mallet ever and I went with the Spider X. Putting is very inconsistent for me so I am trying this out. I went with the copper slant neck. Really enjoying it so far, I have some new found confidence especially with close range. Took a few rolls to get the feel and distance control down due to the insert but was not anything that was too difficult.

 

It has been about 3 weeks, I walk 90% of the rounds at my club with caddies and I have my first scuff mark on the paint. A little disappointing but it is what it is. My Scotty was pretty beat to hell and unfortunately there just was not much I could do. I agree for the price tag it is discouraging, but tools not jewels IMO.

Caddies often have 4 putters in their hands and don't always use the covers. One way around this is to tell the caddy you will take care of grabbing your own putter, which is what I do when I play w a caddie. The finish on the Spider X doesn't seem as fragile as the old white finish on their putters but you gotta be careful.
