TAYLORMADE SPIDER ZT-MAX GOLF PUTTERS
TaylorMade has built the Spider ZT Max around a simple idea: maximum stability, minimum compromise. Four corner weights, an aerospace-grade aluminium body, and a unique low-torque shaft design make this one of the most technically considered putters in the current TaylorMade lineup. Whether you're a committed straight-back-straight-through player or you've been struggling to find a mallet that really suits your eye, the ZT Max is worth a long look. As an approved TaylorMade stockist, Clarkes Golf carries the full Spider ZT Max range with a price match guarantee if you find it cheaper elsewhere.
Why Choose the TaylorMade Spider ZT Max Putter?
The ZT Max isn't just another Spider variant. It's a purpose-built toe-up design with specific engineering decisions that set it apart from the rest of the family. Here's what makes it worth considering.
Spider Stability, Taken Further
The ZT Max uses four heavy steel and tungsten corner weights set around a low-density, aerospace-grade aluminium body. That combination pushes the MOI as high as it can go, meaning off-centre strikes are far less punishing than they would be on a blade or a mid-mallet. If you miss the sweet spot under pressure, the ZT Max gives you a better chance of keeping the ball on its line.
A Unique Low-Torque Shaft Design
The KBS putter shaft on the ZT Max is bored directly toe-ward, close to the putter's centre of gravity. Combined with a 2-degree shaft lean and 34mm of onset behind the face, the result is a stable, toe-up design that reduces twist through impact. It's a technical detail that most golfers won't notice consciously, but they'll feel it in the consistency of their strike.
The Pure Roll Insert
The ZT Max uses TaylorMade's Pure Roll insert, made from a blend of Surlyn and aluminium. The grooves are angled at 45 degrees to promote forward roll from the moment the ball leaves the face, reducing skid and giving you a more predictable, end-over-end roll. The black insert also gives the putter a clean, premium look at address that suits the overall design well.
Milled True Path Alignment
The alignment system on the ZT Max is an upgraded version of TaylorMade's True Path technology, developed directly from Tour player feedback. Milled lines the width of a golf ball have been added to help you index to the centre of the face more accurately at address. If alignment is something you work on, this is a genuinely useful feature rather than a cosmetic one.
Sole Shaping Built for Consistency
TaylorMade's engineers redesigned the sole curvature specifically to work with the ZT Max's hosel configuration. The new shape is meant to sit cleanly behind the ball at address for different player types and ball positions, helping you find a consistent setup every time you stand over a putt. It's the kind of detail that makes a difference over a full round rather than just on the practice green.
Available in Multiple Length Configurations
The ZT Max comes in standard lengths from 33 to 35 inches, a counterbalance option available at 36 and 38 inches with a heavier graphite shaft and SuperStroke grip to promote a more pendulum-like stroke, and a long putter at 46 inches for players who prefer an anchored or chest-style setup. Left-hand options are available on selected configurations. If you're unsure which length suits your setup, it's worth checking with the Clarkes Golf team before ordering.
The TaylorMade Spider ZT Max is a technically impressive putter that goes beyond the usual mallet spec. High MOI construction, a purpose-built low-torque shaft, milled alignment, and a range of length options make it one of the more versatile and well-engineered options in the current TaylorMade putters range.
