At the core of every Spider ZT Max is a structural philosophy TaylorMade has refined over years of Tour-level development. Four heavy corner weights surround a low-density, aerospace-grade aluminium body — a construction designed to push mass to the perimeter and maximise MOI across the entire head. In each of the three models, the KBS putter shaft is bored directly toward the centre of gravity of the putter head, producing a 2° shaft lean and 34mm of onset behind the face that delivers a consistent, toe-up orientation at address. New sole shaping, developed specifically around this hosel configuration, is engineered to sit flush against the ground every time the putter is set down.
World-Class Feel and Alignment
Feel and alignment were equally considered in the Spider ZT Max design. The black Pure Roll™ insert — a combination of Surlyn and aluminium — produces a softer feel at impact alongside 45°-angled grooves engineered to promote optimal launch and forward roll from the first contact point. On the top line, an evolution of TaylorMade's True Path™ alignment system features milled lines sized to the exact width of a golf ball, giving players a precise reference point for indexing to centre face at address.
Spider ZT Max Counterbalance
Spider ZT Max Counterbalance is available in 36" and 38" lengths for both right and left handed players, and is built around a KBS Custom Graphite shaft and elongated SuperStroke grip — a system designed to shift the balance point higher into the grip end of the club. The practical effect is helping players reduce grip pressure and a quiet the smaller hand and forearm muscles, allowing for a stroke that feels more controlled and deliberate. At 398g, the head is slightly heavier than the Standard to account for the counterbalance system, and the KBS Custom Graphite shaft is weighted at 155g to support the higher balance point. Two grip options are available — SuperStroke 2.0 XL at 13.75" and SuperStroke 3.0 at 17" — giving players the ability to fine-tune the degree of counterbalance effect. Loft is 3.5° and the lie angle is 70°. Head weight is 398g.
