i went over the weekend to get fitted for a new putter, didn't want a blade since i have 3 already and wanted a mallet putter. they handed me 15 different putters and i kept coming back to the Red Day putter. platinum is face balance and the loft is 2.5 and can't change out the weights on it and is for more straight back putter, DJ is real good jus like the Red Day but lil heavier and the face is firmer but comes off so fast, feels good also. Red Day softer feel and easy to line up. i use the center body of the putter to aim since theres no line on top

"no biggy" 

first 5/5 putts with the Day putter right then i knew ill walk out of the store with it. only thing i wish they would sell DJ's black grip since it's a mid size grip and the Day's is slim. almost got them to switch out the grips for me but they almost bought into it lol. ended up cutting it down from 34" to 32" "yes I'm short" lie stayed the same and loft also 3.5º came from a 4º but .5º not a big change. i did order the weights for it and wanna take out the two 2g weights for 2 4g and see if it makes it a lil more heavier since i cut it 2inches. since they couldn't switch out the grips for me i got them to add 3wraps on the grip and that actually made it feel lil better. went out sunday to the practice greens and set up 4balls around the hole at 4ft drained em, went to 10ft drained them no problem at all. started to putt at 30ft no joke at all made 3/4 putts, I'm like ok this putter working good. took it out for 18holes ended up with a 83. week before shot a 93 "had a few blow up holes on the greens" after that day looking at it, took 10 strokes off my card so i'll def be keeping this in the bag. 

I've seen where some people's Day putter has been chipping near the bottom of the face of the black insert. yes mine has chips of black paint come off it that sunday and i called TM about it and they said 2year warranty is on all there stuff and i can get it replaced for a new one since mine chipped the 2nd of having it. no it doesn't take any of the performance away from it and isn't really that big of deal i guess but jus sucks spending that much for it and this happens. I'm going to send it back to get it replace but makes me wonder since where they were on back order so long and they had to rush the production that this must be a common error in a lot of the Red Day putters cause I've seen forums about it and pics. other then that it's still one or the best putter I've every used

Yeah, the Red Spider is money.  I was thinking of picking one up since I had pro shop credit.  I need nothing...putter would have been fun though.

Red Spider I make everything...even with the thin grip.  I have a mid slim 3.0 on my Newport.  I was trying to like the Ping Tyne but it needs more toe hang.  The Red Spider matches up with my Newport.  The Black DJ model I'm not a fan of the feel in comparison to the Red.
