CARLSBAD, Calif (June 4, 2026) - TaylorMade Golf announces the launch of Spider ZT Max, a new high-MOI mallet putter built on the Spider Stability platform and offered in three distinct configurations: Standard, Counterbalance, and Long.
Spider ZT Max putters will be available at TaylorMadeGolf.com and at trusted retail outlets June 4. The Standard Spider ZT Max will sell for $449.99, the ZT Max Counterbalance for $499.99, and the Spider ZT Max Long for $549.99.
At the core of every Spider ZT Max is a structural philosophy TaylorMade has refined over years of Tour-level development. Four heavy corner weights surround a low-density, aerospace-grade aluminum body - a construction designed to push mass to the perimeter and maximize MOI across the entire head.
In each of the three models, the KBS putter shaft is bored directly toward the center of gravity of the putter head, producing a 2° shaft lean and 34mm of onset behind the face that delivers a consistent, toe-up orientation at address. New sole shaping, developed specifically around this hosel configuration, is engineered to sit flush against the ground every time the putter is set down.
Feel and alignment were equally considered in the Spider ZT Max design. The black Pure Roll™ insert - a combination of Surlyn and aluminum - produces a softer feel at impact alongside 45°-angled grooves engineered to promote optimal launch and forward roll from the first contact point.
On the top line, an evolution of TaylorMade's True Path™ alignment system features milled lines sized to the exact width of a golf ball, giving players a precise reference point for indexing to center face at address.
Spider ZT Max Standard is offered in 33", 34", and 35" lengths for both right and left-handed golfers, and represents the most direct expression of the Spider Stability platform in the Spider ZT Max lineup. The KBS CT Putter 120 Stepless shaft - bored toward near the CG - works in concert with the enlarged head to produce a toe-up orientation that sets up flush against the ground at address.
The SuperStroke Off-Axis Tour 2.0 grip completes a setup designed to keep the focus squarely on the stroke. Head weight comes in at 379g, reflecting the additional mass of the larger Spider ZT Max body relative to the standard Spider ZT. Loft is 3.5° and the lie angle is 70°.
Spider ZT Max Counterbalance is available in 36" and 38" lengths for both right and left-handed players, and is built around a KBS Custom Graphite shaft and elongated SuperStroke grip - a system designed to shift the balance point higher into the grip end of the club. The practical effect is helping players reduce grip pressure and a quiet the smaller hand and forearm muscles, allowing for a stroke that feels more controlled and deliberate.
At 398g, the head is slightly heavier than the Standard to account for the counterbalance system, and the KBS Custom Graphite shaft is weighted at 155g to support the higher balance point. Two grip options are available - SuperStroke 2.0 XL at 13.75" and SuperStroke 3.0 at 17" - giving players the ability to fine-tune the degree of counterbalance effect. Loft is 3.5° and the lie angle is 70°. Head weight is 398g.
Spider ZT Max Long is a 46" single-length configuration available for right-handed players, built around a 210g KBS Custom Graphite shaft and SuperStroke Split Pistol grip. At this length and weight, the putter is engineered to shift the locus of control away from the hands and wrists and toward the larger muscle groups of the shoulders and arms.
The head weight of 472g is the heaviest in the Spider ZT Max lineup, calibrated specifically for the additional shaft length and the pendulum-style motion the Long configuration is designed to promote.
Lie angle comes in at 79° - notably upright relative to the Standard and Counterbalance models - reflecting the more vertical address position associated with longer putter configurations. Loft is 3°.
