TaylorMade introduce three new counterbalanced putters
5 TaylorMade has announced new counterbalanced models of the Daddy Long Legs, Spider Blade and Spider Mallet, each with Tour-inspired aesthetics.
The new designs feature an enhanced colour scheme, including a luxurious black finish and white tungsten heel/toe weights, which frame the ball at address.
A matte-black shaft and high-polish sole round out the premium aesthetics.
Each of these putters promote an extremely stable putting stroke”
“The new tour-inspired cosmetic is visually stunning, while also delivering the ultimate in stability and performance,” said Tomo Bystedt, TaylorMade’s director of iron, wedge and putter creation.
“Each of these putters promote an extremely stable putting stroke, to help golfers deliver a consistent roll time after time.”
Daddy Long Legs is the most stable putter in the trio, with an MOI (moment of inertia) of more than 8,500. The high-MOI design resists twisting at impact to protect ball speed on off-center hits.
At more than 5,200 MOI, the Spider Blade offers the stability of a mallet putter in a blade shape to promote outstanding twist-resistance and distance control on off-center hits.
All three models feature a heavy steel frame, and tungsten heel and toe weights, all designed to raise the MOI to deliver increased head stability.
TaylorMade Tour Staff pros who contributed to the development of these premium putters include Sergio Garcia, Jason Day, Boo Weekley and Troy Matteson.
