Refurbished old Spider Putter

Hello OP’s

I bought a Taylormade Spider Tour putter from Marketplace for $40. Was in an alright state with paint chipping but I figured I’d give it a DIY Refurbish. Sanded down all the old paint, added primer, then black matte paint. I used white acrylic paint for the lettering. In the end, the boys at the course thought I bought a brand new putter when I played it ! What do you think on how this turned out? Could I now sell if for $80-$100 and get a newer one ? 🥲

Custom Shaft In R7 Mini Driver.

So i just bought a hzardous 70g wood shaft and need to be an adpater to put on it to put eventually pair with the r7 mini dirver head. My question is, does the hzardous wood 70g take a .335 adapater, and does a r7 mini take a .335 adapter. I looked at the taylormade website an it says the stock fujikura speeder is a .355.

So, will my newly built hzardous with a .335 adapter have any issues when I go to put the r7 head on it?

Bending lofts on QI irons

So I made the mistake of getting fitted for irons 6 months before starting to work with a coach. I initially got fitted for QI irons with ventus blues and was quite happy with them but after doing some swing work, the lofts are a little strong for my liking and I’m not getting the spin numbers I’d like to see. The coach I’m working with suggested I would be better suited for something like a P790. I’m wondering if I could bend the lofts a couple degrees weaker to achieve something similar without dropping a bag on another new set. Any thoughts?

which one would you choose?

Found these on my local market group. Both similar price (black one around 210 dollar) and both very good condition, I'm looking into upgrading my putter and I been interested in a spider model but there are so many versions and bit hard to track what is what... help!

Shadowfall and Battleworn

My kid is being fitted for his irons. He saw the battleworn last year and really liked them. Now he has seen the shadowfall and likes these too. I'm really worried about the shadowfall holding up way way more than the battleworn, if I even considered letting him get either finish. Anyone have the battleworn and how have they held up. I'm assuming the battleworn is a finish applied so eventually the finish will start to wear off and show unfinished surface?

I'm just trying to wrap my head around if I should even let this be a choice.

Thanks for any help and advice.

Warranty Question

My Qi10 LS shattered on the range last weekend and Taylormade is going to send me a replacement club. Can I assume they will send me the same club, or will they send me a Qi4D?

P790 Shadowfall Custom Build – Can’t Remove 4-Iron?

I’m trying to custom build the new TaylorMade P790 Shadowfall irons and want to go with a 5-PW setup.

However, in the customization builder it won’t let me de-select the 4-iron (it looks like it’s locked into the set composition).

Is this expected for this release / limited edition Shadowfall build, or is it a website/configurator bug?

For context, I’m trying to build:

  • 5-PW iron set only (no 4-iron)

But the system keeps forcing the 4-iron into the set makeup.

Anyone else run into this or know if TaylorMade is intentionally structuring the Shadowfall custom sets this way?

Is this cooked?

Hit one a little off the toe and heard a strange sound. I feel sick. Literally got it from TM last week.

What’s the correct “standard” wedge length?

Is it normal that my 52/56/60 wedges (pictured with two different 60’s) are roughly the same length as each other? And 1” shorter than my PW? I just took them to Golf Mart to get set to standard lengths, and this is how they came back. Doesn’t seem right, and I always feel like my wedges are too short.

Bring back the white crown

Started playing using the R11s fairway wood (15*) and the 2011 hybrid rescue (18*, 21*, & 23.5*).

Maybe I’m nostalgic or just a geriatric millenial but do wish the white crown was back.

TM….please reintroduce a titanium face (Sim 3 Max for example) with a white crown.

It will sell lol 😂

Stripped all the paint from a Tour Red

Found this Taylormade Spider Tour Red on proclubs for $60 and I'm doing a "full" refurb on it.

Thinking about painting it black with white sight line. Also thinking about painting a web on the sole plate.

Last 2 pics are Gemini AI renders.

Gapping issues with 2023 P790s?

Ami got fitted for these back in 2023 and have just recently started tracking my shots. Anyone else notice a significant gap from 8i to 7i? I track my shots real time with Garmin S70 golf watch so we’re not talking range sessions with Map my Bag, but dozens of rounds over the last year.

For reference I keep a 12-17 yd gap between all my irons except 8i-7i, it’s a 26 yard gap.

Bonus issue… I don’t like my gapping from 50* to PW… anyone else have that issue?

Shadowfall Collection Discounts

Anyone know how long it takes for a new product to be eligible for discounts? I want to buy the QI4D driver as I get the TCP Graduates discount, but the shadowfall isnt eligible yet.

Would shadowfall woods really scratch that much?

In the market for new woods and eyeing the shadowfall collection since I’m a big fan of the gloss crown on woods. I prefer tm woods but the Qi4D has the matte crown so I was never really keen on it. I see people saying that it would scratch a lot but would it really be more than the original Qi4D? I know the underside has gloss on both options so would the shadowfall be that much worse?

QI4D Hybrid Headcovers are Identical

I bought 3 and 4 QI4D Hybrids from PGA Superstore yesterday and the headcovers are completely identical. I'm assuming that little hanging tag is supposed to have the proper number on it, but both of mine say 3. Either way, those will be kind of obnoxious to search for each time I'm going to pull out a club. I'd much prefer to have a number on top that makes it easy to quickly see and grab the correct club.

Does anyone have any suggestions for the best way to adapt these with a number on top? They are nice head covers, so it would be a shame not to utilize them. Seems like TaylorMade just missed the mark in trying to make them too beautiful rather than functional. Any thoughts or suggestions for how others have addressed this would be appreciated!
