GolfWRX Spotted: TaylorMade SIM2 fairway woods and hybrids on conforming list

Just a few short weeks ago at GolfWRX, we were the first to share that the TaylorMade SIM2 drivers were officially on the conforming club list.

Now, with the new PGA Tour season starting up in Hawaii at the Sentry Tournament of Champions, more clubs are making their debut on the conforming list, including the SIM2 fairway woods and hybrids from TaylorMade.

TaylorMade SIM2 Titanium fairway wood

You don’t mess with a good thing, and the SIM2 titanium looks to be utilizing the same platform as the original 2020 version except with more of the steel soleplate’s mass moved further back in the head, likely to increase MOI.

TaylorMade is also sticking with the adjustability in the SIM2 Titanium.

TaylorMade SIM2 Max fairway wood

The SIM2 Max looks to also be following familiar lines with a V-Steel sole and no additional hosel adjustability.

The one thing to note is from the pictures available, the sole from heel to toe looks to be more rounded, which could make them easier to hit from the turf.

TaylorMade SIM2 Max D fairway wood

We can’t tell from the pictures, but if the SIM2 Max D is anything like the previous generation it will have a taller face and more upright lie angle compared to the standard Max model.

The internal weighting is going to likely be a big part of this club’s story, but unfortunately, since these are just sole images, those details will have to wait until we have more information.

2021 TaylorMade SIM2 rescue hybrids

SIM2 Max Rescue

The SIM2 Rescue looks to offer minor cosmetic changes, and a more curved sole to make it easier to hit from a variety of lies.

This is where things get interesting.

TaylorMade hasn’t had a truly adjustable hybrid since the GAPR line from a number of years ago, and with the success of the SIM brand, offering another club to help optimize the top end of the bag for golfers looking for adjustability makes this a no-brainer.

The shape looks to be quite similar to previous Rescue TP models that also offered adjustability but with a bunch of extra technology including the through sole speed pocket.

Conclusion

With the success of the 2020 SIM fairway woods and hybrids, TaylorMade is looking to refine and not redefine their metal woods line outside of the addition of an adjustable hybrid, which should prove to be very successful.

Both the SIM Titanium and steel fairway woods were top of their class when it came to performance and we should expect to see similar gains with these new releases.

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.
