Alright, so I got my hands on this Ghost Spider putter a while back, and I’ve been meaning to share my thoughts on it. You know, when I first saw this thing, I thought, “What’s the deal with this white head?” It’s definitely different from what I’m used to, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
First off, I tried it out on the practice green. I noticed the white color really does stand out. It was super easy to see against the green grass, and lining up my putts felt really natural. There’s something about that contrast that just makes things easier. I’ve heard people talk about how it reflects light better than a black putter, and I think there might be something to that.
Then, I started messing around with the weighting. This thing is supposed to be counterbalanced, which means there’s extra weight in the grip. I’m not super technical when it comes to putters, but I could definitely feel a difference. It felt more stable in my hands, like it wasn’t going to twist or turn as easily. I saw somewhere that TaylorMade claims it’s their most stable putter ever, and I can see why they’d say that.
- I took it out on the course for a few rounds.
- I played with it for weeks.
- I recorded every putt.
- I noticed I was sinking more putts from inside 10 feet.
It’s not like my putting was magically perfect all of a sudden, but I definitely felt more confident with it. Longer putts still gave me some trouble, but that’s more on me than the putter. Overall, I’d say the Ghost Spider is a solid choice, especially if you’re looking for something that feels stable and helps you line up your putts.
So, I finally made up my mind after all these practices. If you’re thinking about trying a new putter, this one is definitely worth checking out. It might take a little getting used to, but I think it could really help improve your putting game.
