TaylorMade is honouring Dustin Johnson’s victory at last fall’s Masters with the Dustin Johnson Spider Limited Commemorative Edition putter, built to mirror the specs of the putter he used. A seamless solid black crown is absent of any sightline, allowing him to aim with the topline while also promoting reliance on feel at address and during the putting stroke. In addition, it features a short slant hosel, a Counter Core SuperStroke GT 1.0 grip and two 9 g weights placed in the heel and toe. Subtle green accents have been added on the sole and back badge as a nod to the Augusta, while a specialty box completes a springtime vibe.
