Which TaylorMade Putter Is Best For You? (2025 Test Results)

If you’re a TaylorMade fan, 2025 testing gave you a clearer picture of where the brand stands. While no TaylorMade blade models were part of this year’s lineup, the company’s mallets and zero-torque designs made a strong showing. The Spider Tour and Spider Tour X continue TaylorMade’s tradition in mallet innovation but the real standout was the new Spider 5K ZT. In a growing zero-torque category, it emerged as TaylorMade’s biggest winner of 2025, especially for golfers who want added stability and long-range consistency.

Which one is for you?

TaylorMade’s 2025 test results told a clear story: this is a brand built on mallets and now making serious waves in the zero-torque category. While no TaylorMade blades were included in this year’s lineup, the Spider Tour and Spider Tour X carried on the company’s strong reputation for forgiveness and stability. Both showed reliable long-range performance, though their consistency on short and mid-range putts was more mixed.

The real breakthrough came from the Spider 5K ZT. This is TaylorMade’s first major step into zero-torque design. It finished as the runner-up overall in the category, highlighted by one of the very best long-putt scores across all models tested (–10.2).

That combination of stability and distance control makes it one of TaylorMade’s strongest 2025 releases and a serious option if you’re considering this new style of putter.

If you’re looking to decide which TaylorMade model best fits your game, here’s what you should know.

TaylorMade Spider 5K ZT – Zero-torque mallet with high-MOI stability and a more traditional Spider look. It delivered standout performance on medium and long putts (–7.0 and –10.2), helping it secure runner-up overall in the category.
