I have now owned this TM Ghost Spider for a few weeks and I'm more than delighted with my purchase. I've always been a mallet fan and they seen to suit my eye and my putting style better than the traditional blade shaped putters.
The white finish I guess is an acquired taste for some however it does seem to work well. The white head stands out and offers a degree of confidence when sitting behind the ball. The head size is possibly bigger than the old spider but that may be an optical illusion due to the white head. The markings on the head also just inspire confidence and are easy to line up to the hole. The basketball alignment aid is simple and pleasing to use.
Feel wise the new Spider Ghost is firmer off the face that the older Agsi inserts however it rolls just as well yet still gives great feedback. The weight is possibly my only grype. For such a large mallet headed putter I feel that they could have added more weight as standard. I have ended up changing the two 4 gramme weights to after market 14 gramme weights which for me has transformed the weight and feel.
Overall a great offering by TaylorMade and I would recommend anyone give this putter more than a passing glance if in the market for a new wand.
