TaylorMade launches new Daddy Long Legs, Spider Mallet, Spider Blade putters
TaylorMade has launched a tour-inspired line of its counterbalanced Daddy Long Legs, Spider Maller and Spider Blade putters, which offer the same performance as the company’s original models with a more subdued appearance. Along with a new black finish, the putters add TaylorMade’s matte black shafts and high-polished soles.
Daddy Long Legs
The Daddy Long Legs, which is the largest of the three putters, sells for $250. It has an moment of inertia (MOI) of 8500, making it one of the most forgiving putters in golf. High-MOI putters like the Daddy Long Legs can improve the consistency of a golfer’s stroke and help normalize ball speed on strikes across the putter face, helping putts hit off-center roll closer to the same distance as putts hit in the center of the face.
Spider Blade
TaylorMade’s Spider Blade putter, which was used by Justin Rose to win the 2013 U.S. Open, has an MOI of 5200, making it twice as forgiving as standard blade putters, according to TaylorMade. It sells for $229.
Spider Mallet
The Spider Mallet putter fits in between the Daddy Long Legs and Spider Blade putters in terms of size and forgiveness and also sells for $229.
All three of the counterbalanced putters are available in lengths of 35 and 38 inches. The 38-inch model is for golfers who use a 34-to-36 inch putter, while the 35-inch model is for golfers who use a 32-to-34 inch putter

Just got mine in the mail today. It is an amazing looking putter and I can’t wait to use it. Let’s just hope I can get the ball in the hole with it!

Taylormade update philosophy: If it’s black, make it white. If it’s white, make it black.

Are you stating Dustin Johnson has a cocaine habit? I would be careful saying things like that, even online. You know Phil went after a Canadian guy and got him in some serious trouble because the guy was slandering him online. I’m just saying, I don’t know anything about anyone.
