The Dustin Johnson Spider

[ChetlovesMer]

Okay, I'm a fan of the limited edition stuff. 
I've purchased at least one "limited edition" driver in my life. I've got 3 different pairs of limited edition True LinksWear Shoes. So, I would say I'm pro-limited edition golf equipment. But for some reason, this one just doesn't do it for me. 

Firstly, this putter (regular edition) is now selling everywhere for ~$199. But this version is 500 bucks. The other issue is it just doesn't seem unique or interesting enough to make me say "Wow".

Am I wrong? What do you all think? Would you be interested in a Limited Edition Dustin Johnson Masters Inspired Putter? Let me know.

I don't get it at all, just seems like an overpriced Spider. But I don't collect golf stuff, so maybe there is something about this that a collector would want.

What will this putter mean to you in 1, 2, or 3 years from now? Will it hold it's value?

I like DJ as much as the next guy. But in a couple years are we going to be looking back at his Masters' win as "One for the ages"? I don't really think so. 

So, unless you are just the biggest DJ fan out there, or for what ever reason the 2020 Masters really meant something special to you. I don't feel like this Spider is "Special" enough. 

Oh, and one other thing. 
The Taylormade Spider putters are notorious for the paint chipping. If you buy this putter to be used on the course, it might be kind of sad to watch it's paint slowly deteriorate over time.

I’m not fond of the look either. Looks like the tail end of a 50’s Chrysler.

I gamed a TM Ardmore, similar to the one Tiger used for a bit, and the red paint started chipping off prematurely. TM definitely has paint issues, imo.
