TaylorMade to release Spider Limited Black putter

Published

on

Dustin Johnson went black and soon you can, too. TaylorMade is releasing its Spider Limited putter in an black version that’s similar to the putter Dustin Johnson used to win the BMW Championship.

Like the Spider Limited Red, which was inspired by Jason Day’s taste in putters, the Spider Limited Black is a face-balanced design, has a single, white sightline and uses TaylorMade’s milled Pure Roll Insert.

What makes the Spider Limited unique is its relatively compact size — at least among mallet putters — and its big forgiveness. Its lightweight, 6061 aluminum body is reinforced with a stainless steel frame that creates an extremely high moment of inertia (MOI), a putter’s resistance to twisting on off-center hits. According to TaylorMade, the Spider Limited’s MOI is more than 4900.

The Spider Limited Black’s milled Pure Roll insert has a gunmetal finish.

It should be noted that the Spider Limited putters are slightly different than Day’s and Johnson’s putters in two ways: Day’s and Johnson’s putters do not have sight lines, and their putters have longer “flow necks” that create a small amount of toe hang.

Spider Limited Black putters ($299) are available in lengths of 34 and 35 inches for right-handed golfers. The putters will be in stores November 25. Pre-order now.

    Agree with everyone, golf manufacturers should release tour only products… They will most definitely sell$$$… They release total junk…

    Perfect example of why Taylormade is struggling………they are clueless when it comes to listening to golf enthusiasts, like everyone on this thread. They are trying to appeal to high handicap golfers, who are the people that don’t buy the newer expensive equipment. The people that are interested in this putter are your lower to mid handicappers and willing to pay $300. Great job of getting it all wrong again Taylormade. No sight line and flow neck, simple as that.

    And what’s with that massive white aiming line? Give us the blank, all black one!

      All you have to do is scrape the paint and get it to the base or fill it with black. Solved.

New Level launches new 480-DB irons, blending performance and forgiveness

Published

on

New Level has been making some really good golf equipment since the company started up in 2018. Offering irons that are more geared towards the better player, precision has been a fundamental philosophy for New Level in creating irons and wedges.

The 480 line of irons has been the flagship of the brand, and the newest member of that team is the 480-DB iron that is now open to pre-orders. A new cavity design is what the whole 480 line is about, and the 480-DB takes advantage of that with added ball speed and a larger sweet spot.

For players who require their irons to offer the best feel, rest assured the DB is a fully forged (from 1020 carbon steel) one-piece golf club. No multi-piece, hollow design with this iron.

While the 480-DB is the next generation of the popular 902-OS, New Level didn’t follow the current trend in golf by chasing distance with the new iron. They actually weakened the lofts on the 480-DB with the spec sheet showing a 33-degree 7-iron and 45-degree pitching wedge. These lofts allow the DB to have less offset while still offering consistent distance off the face.

A traditional design was also at the forefront of the new irons to make sure that golfers with an eye for detail can look down at them with confidence that they will perform under any condition.

 

A weight low in the back cavity will allow their master club builders to dial in the perfect weight for the golfer, no matter the length or shaft being used. New Level believes that the new 480-DB is one of the most forgiving one-piece forged irons on the market today. A pre-worn leading edge on the sole should get through the turf quickly and with reduced digging for better turf interaction.

You can pre-order the New Level 480-DB right now on the New Level website.
