Have you had a chance to take TaylorMade’s new mySpider ZT customizer for a spin? If not, follow this link to build your mySpider ZT and then head back here. I’ll wait for you.
Welcome back!
Now that you have had a crack at the mySpider ZT interface, I want to share with you the mySpider ZT putters that my MGS colleagues Chris, Tony and I created.
TaylorMade has the best club customizer interface
For a number of years, TaylorMade has had the best online interface for customizing putters and other clubs. Competitors are not even close.
For a while, the playing field was fairly level. That changed when TaylorMade unveiled the myStealth2+ interface.
Design choices were reflected on the rendering instantly. More importantly, users could now rotate the club in three-dimensional space. This allowed users to view their creation from all angles. At the time, other companies’ renderings were static views from various angles.
That myStealth2+ interface was well beyond the competition and thankfully continued into TaylorMade’s other customization programs such as the mySpider ZT creator that we are seeing the fruits of today.
The only criticism I have of the TaylorMade myProgram system is that they never returned to driver customization. The Shadowfall versions are cool but they are no substitute for the ability to fully customize the driver.
Now that the stage is set, and you’ve played with the interface, let’s take a look at the putters that we built.
Dave’s Sun Devil mySpider ZT
Forks Up! We are rapidly approaching the greatest time of the year: college football season! Naturally, I had to send some love to my Arizona State Sun Devils.
Typically around the beginning of August, my predominantly purple golf equipment shifts to maroon and gold. The ASU carry bag comes out of storage as do the fancy pom-pom headcovers.
For the past few years, this tradition has resulted in lots of wins! Hiring Head Coach Kenny Dillingham has probably helped as well but I’m not going to dismiss the power of a single alum switching golf gear.
As per usual, I am very happy with the rendering versus real results. In many ways, the in-hand putter is better than the rendering. For example, the shaft and grip are a much deeper maroon than the computer screen suggested. All in all, it was a solid what you see is what you get experience.
This Sun Devil mySpider ZT will fit perfectly with the ASU aesthetic. If I can find a center-shafted Arizona State headcover, we may win the college football national championship this year.
See you in Las Vegas!

Chris’s Let’s Go Bo Nix and Jaylen Waddle mySpider ZT
Sunsets are blue and orange because even God loves the Denver Broncos. At least, that’s my line of thinking.
Custom has become standard in the sense that adding some personal flair to every element of your club setup is something most golfers seem to expect, particularly when it comes to putters and wedges. The “A-game” isn’t always in the trunk but at least you’ll like the way your putter looks.
Does that count for much? Maybe not on the scorecard but should I miss that downhill left-to-right slider for birdie, at least I can fondly recall “The Drive”, “The Fumble” and Von Miller destroying Cam Newton in SB 50.
In terms of the process, the interface is simple and user-friendly. If you can comfortably order Door Dash, I’m always a bit wary to go with too bold of a color scheme.
So, while this is Denver Broncos-inspired, I limited any orange accents to the sole, offset by the blue face. So just enough to drop more than a subtle hint. I also wanted something with a familiar address profile with a bit of contrast, thus the matte silver topline.
If I were to run this back, I might opt for a full-on, Rickie Fowler Sunday kit: orange body with blue face and white accents. But that’s the beauty and draw of any custom program: the virtually limitless options that consistently threaten to drain the Venmo account.
And for the record, I’ll see Dave’s ASU mallet cover and raise him a Broncos throwback “D” logo Robert Mark headcover.

Tony’s Let’s Not Overcomplicate this Shit Putter
First, nobody told me we were supposed to be doing a “team theme” kind of thing so don’t expect that from me. I started my build with the counterbalanced option for no other reason than, on an OEM visit a few years back, I played a round with a counterbalanced putter. It went pretty well and since I hadn’t used one since, I figured why not?
The downside to that decision is that it immediately led to fewer options than you’d get with a standard build like Dave’s.
With that, a good bit of what I did was a process of elimination. I felt like the milled leading edge option was a bit busy for my taste so I passed on that. Because there’s a lot of chatter about “quiet eye” stuff right now, I would have loved a single-dot alignment option. That’s not in the catalog so I went with three dots while convincing myself that if one is quiet, three is dead silent.
Winning.
I might have done a black/gunmetal pairing if that were available on CB built but it isn’t and, since I’m not a fan of the hydroblast, I went with a cohesive black look. And, again, since I’m not trying to theme this out (subtle was the goal), I went with a simple gunmetal face insert instead of something like electric blue (which I definitely considered). The black body with the gunmetal insert creates some contrast without being over the top like Chris’s.

Likewise, I wanted some contrast on the sole so I went with the silver weights instead of the black and since it’s not the type of thing you see at address anyway, I went with a splash of color via a dark blue sole plate with silver paint fill across the board.
Is it all a bit understated relative to what Dave and Chris did? Absolutely. Is it less painful to look at? Also absolutely. To each their own, I guess.
For the custom engraving, I chose NMF3P!, short for No More Fucking 3 Putts. Thus far, results have been mixed.
Lastly, I chose the white headcover because I’m amused by the thought of how trashy (or well-worn) it’s going to look after a reasonable amount of use.
I’m not sure zero-torque (and ZT-adjacent designs) are right for me but the longer counterbalanced design gives me a new excuse to experiment. I suppose that’s fun.
Final thoughts on the mySpider ZT custom program
As I mentioned, the enormous number of options creates thousands of possible mySpider ZT configurations.
Whatever your mind comes up with, the mySpider ZT program will have the options for you to build it.
You’ve seen first-hand how the three of us approached the build process and how we ended up with three very different putters.
One thing that is worth emphasizing is the upcharge for customization. It’s only an extra $100 to go from off-the-rack to full customization. If you know you want a Spider ZT, spend the extra money. Mow a few lawns, recycle your Busch Light Apple cans or do whatever it takes to scratch together the extra Benjamin.
The custom program also allows you to tweak the physical characteristics of your putter such as length and lie angle. That means that not only will your putter look like a Bapple can but it will also fit your stroke.
