Liked it

“Tour X is definitely the most popular played one played on tour”

The most popular and most-asked-about Spider on tour and in stores, combining mallet forgiveness with toe flow that eases blade players into a mallet.

+ the facts · 3 pros
  • +Toe flow suits slight-arc strokes, easing the blade-to-mallet transition
  • +Mallet forgiveness plus the Pure Roll insert in a smaller head than the Spider Tour
  • +Torched PVD finish with single sight line looks cleaner and less busy than True Path to the tester

For: Slight-arc putters, especially traditional blade players moving into a mallet.
