Justin Rose designs a Spider
While at the MySpider Custom Putter launch event at the Heritage Golf Club, just 20 minutes from Muirfield Golf Club, Justin Rose — who won last week at the Fort Worth Invitational — designed his own Spider.
What’d he go with? Check it out…
Rose went with green as the base color, saying “this would win The Masters, huh?” And he went with a red PureRoll insert because “you always want the putter face to be red hot.”

Did Rory McIlroy inspire Shane Lowry’s putter switch?
Editor’s note: This is an excerpt from a piece our Andrew Tursky originally wrote for PGATour.com’s Equipment Report. Head over there for the full article.
The timing of Lowry’s putter changeup was curious: Was he just using a Spider putter because he was paired with McIlroy, who’s been using a Spider Tour X head throughout 2024? Was Lowry just being festive because it’s the Zurich Classic, and he wanted to match his teammate? Did McIlroy let Lowry try his putter, and he liked it so much he actually switched into it?
Well, as it turns out, McIlroy’s only influence was inspiring Lowry to make more putts.
When asked if McIlroy had an influence on the putter switch, Lowry had this to say: “No, it’s actually a different putter than what he uses. Maybe there was more pressure there because I needed to hole some more putts if we wanted to win,” he said with a laugh.
To Lowry’s point, McIlroy plays the Tour X model, whereas Lowry switched into the Tour Z model, which has a sleeker shape in comparison, and the two sole weights of the club are more towards the face.
Lowry’s Spider Tour Z has a white True Path Alignment channel on the crown of his putter, which is reminiscent of Lowry’s former 2-ball designs, thus helping to provide a comfort factor despite the departure from his norm. Instead of a double-bend hosel, which Lowry used in his 2-ball putters, his new Spider Tour Z is designed with a short slant neck.
“I’ve been struggling on the greens, and I just needed something with a fresh look,” Lowry told GolfWRX.com on Wednesday at the 2024 Wells Fargo Championship. “It has a different neck on it, as well, so it moves a bit differently, but it’s similar. It has a white line on the back of it [like my 2-ball], and it’s a mallet style. So it’s not too drastic of a change.
“I just picked it up on the putting green and I liked the look of it, so I was like, ‘Let’s give it a go.’”

Memories of MyJoys! definitely a total novelty but think it’s pretty cool they are offering it and the more special you can make that flat stick feel in your hands the better in my opinion. Anyone any ideas when they will be available in Europe, more specifically the UK / Ireland? Thanks.

Rose also doesn’t realize that red and green means Christmas more than red hot. Probably not what you want on your putter if you want to win the Masters

If you can’t putt worth a snot you might as well look like a stylish fool mucking up.

You’re describing the entire community of golfers who run out to buy PXG and Scotty Camerons and wonder why they still can’t make any putts. But they sure believe they look good! lmao

The itsy bitsy spider climbed up the waterspout.
Down came the rain and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
and the itsy bitsy spider climbed up the spout again.

I love the black and white motif and the all electric blue model. The two tone colors are too confusing and look chintzy. Great marketing strategy TM. Going in my WITB.
