It was the year 2025 “Zero torque?” If the litmus test is Fairway Jockey’s best-selling putter, the answer is powerful yes.
of TaylorMade Spider 5K-ZT (“zero torque”) power was released just before the beginning of summer. TaylorMade underwent an 18-month re-engineering process of the existing Spider model – a model that had a long-established reputation for reliable spin, stability and alignment – to create the 5K-ZT. The TaylorMade Spider 5K-ZT was an instant hit with consumers and quickly became the best-selling player of the year.
What makes this model so unique? The putter features a toe-up, or ‘forward,’ balance configuration, TaylorMade director of product development for woods and putters Andrew Oldknow said in a press release.
“This design minimizes torque and reduces the need for manual manipulation, promoting a more consistent stroke,” he continued. “As a result, the putter’s face remains squarer to the target line throughout the putting motion, increasing directional control and creating confidence at address and through impact.”
Additional attributes include a unique hose configuration and new toe curvature to help accommodate different types of players and ball positions, with the ultimate goal of allowing players to find a consistent and repeatable shot. To help with alignment, milled lines were added to the width of the golf ball to help players easily center the club behind the ball.

Custom TaylorMade Spider 5K-ZT Putter
LOW-TOE DESIGN The KBS putter shaft is bored directly from the toe near the CG to a 1° pitched shaft starting 25mm behind the face allowing players to realize the benefits of a new stable, toe-up design. UNIQUE SOLE SHAPE New and improved sole shape to work specifically with this unique hose configuration, engineers worked tirelessly to find new ways to improve accuracy from the moment the putter gets behind the ball. The new sole curvature accommodates different types of players and ball positions, giving players the ability to find a consistent and repeatable shot. SPIDER STABILITY The combination of high-density stainless steel and low-density aerospace-grade aluminum provides the perfect foundation for a high-MOI design and allows for a shaft orientation that sits closer to the face. MILLED TRUE PATH™ ALIGNMENT Based on feedback from tournament players, we were tasked with coming up with a new premium alignment system. Based on the classic TaylorMade True Path™ technology, milled lines were added to the width of the golf ball helping players to properly index the face on center.
