TaylorMade Spider 5K-ZT Counter Balance Golf Putter

TaylorMade Spider 5K-ZT Counter Balance Putter

The TaylorMade Spider Tour 5K-ZT Counter Balance Putter takes high-MOI performance to the next level with a design tailored for golfers seeking additional stroke stability and control. Featuring a toe-up, face-balanced setup, this putter is engineered to reduce twisting at impact, maintaining consistency across the face. The counter balance variant is equipped with a heavier 36" or 38" shaft and utilises a KBS GPS Custom Graphite 155g shaft paired with a SuperStroke 2.0XL 13.75" grip--a combination that helps promote a smoother tempo, steady hands, and enhanced distance control.

Performance is driven by the trusted Pure Roll insert, constructed from a Surlyn and aluminium blend with 45 degrees grooves that generate forward roll and a soft, responsive feel. The patented Milled True Path Alignment system enhances visual accuracy at setup, while the unique sole shaping accommodates various stroke styles and positions. With a head weight of 395g and a lie angle of 70 degrees, the 5K-ZT Counter Balance model delivers precision-tuned balance, making it an ideal choice for players who benefit from added weight and stability in their putting stroke.

LOW TORQUE DESIGN

The KBS putter shaft is engineered with a toe-ward bore angle and minimal torque, positioned at a 1 degrees lean with a 25mm offset behind the face. This innovative setup promotes a more stable, controlled putting stroke by optimising the shaft's connection to the putter head.

ENHANCED SOLE SHAPING

A new sole design tailored to match this unique hosel configuration improves alignment and accuracy. The redesigned curvature supports a variety of player types and ball positions, helping golfers achieve a consistent and repeatable stroke every time.

SPIDER STABILITY FRAME

Constructed from high-density stainless steel and aerospace-grade aluminium, this hybrid frame maximises MOI and relocates shaft orientation closer to the face. The result is exceptional stability and forgiveness throughout the stroke.

MILLED TRUE PATH ALIGNMENT

Inspired by feedback from tour professionals, the upgraded True Path? system now includes milled alignment lines matching the width of a golf ball. This enhancement improves alignment to centre face and boosts confidence at address.

PURE ROLL INSERT TECHNOLOGY

Crafted from a soft blend of Surlyn and aluminium, the Pure Roll? insert delivers a responsive, soft feel. Its 45 degrees angled grooves are designed to encourage forward roll while improving sound, feedback, and roll consistency across the face.

COUNTER BALANCE BENEFITS

The counter balance design of the Spider 5K-ZT increases overall putter mass and shifts weight above the hands. This promotes a more stable arc, reduces wrist breakdown, and helps golfers maintain tempo throughout the stroke. Ideal for players with shaky hands or inconsistent pace, the added weight improves control and confidence--especially on long-range putts.
