TaylorMade SIM Max Rescue 하이브리드

Hybrid Options & Stock Shafts

Game Improvement 하이브리드

TaylorMade split its 2020 rescue lineup into two clubs, and the SIM Max Rescue is the one built for players who want the ball up in the air without a fight. It has a larger head than the standard SIM Rescue, a fixed hosel instead of an adjustable one, and a shape that sits behind the ball looking like it will help. It does.

The headline tech is carried over from the driver family. Twist Face is here, which corrects the toe and heel misses that send long-iron and hybrid shots offline. Behind the face sits a Speed Pocket, the slot in the sole that flexes at impact to protect ball speed on strikes hit low on the face, where hybrids usually lose the most distance. The V Steel sole shape is the quiet hero, narrowing the leading edge and relieving the trailing edge so the club glides through turf and rough instead of digging.

What you give up by choosing the Max over the standard SIM Rescue is adjustability. The hosel is fixed, so you set your loft by the head you buy, not by a wrench. For most players in this category that is a fair trade, because the payoff is a bigger, more forgiving head that launches higher and holds its line on off-center hits.

• Mid to high handicappers who struggle to get a 3, 4, or 5 iron airborne and want a club that launches high with almost no effort
• Players who fight a slice or inconsistent contact and want Twist Face and a big head working in their favor on mishits
• Anyone replacing long irons who values forgiveness and easy launch over the ability to fine-tune loft and lie with a wrench
• Golfers who play out of rough and soft turf and need a sole that slides rather than digs

자주 묻는 질문

What is the difference between the SIM Max Rescue and the standard SIM Rescue?

The SIM Max Rescue has a larger, more forgiving head and a fixed hosel, so it launches higher and is easier to hit but you cannot adjust the loft. The standard SIM Rescue is smaller, more compact behind the ball, and has an adjustable hosel aimed at better players who want to dial in loft and face angle. If you want maximum help and height, the Max is the one. If you want workability and adjustability, the standard version fits better.

Is the SIM Max Rescue adjustable?

No. The SIM Max Rescue has a fixed hosel, so your loft is set by the head you choose rather than a wrench. TaylorMade offered it in several lofts through the long-iron replacement range, so you pick the number that fills the gap in your bag.

What loft SIM Max Rescue should I get to replace my long irons?

Match the rescue loft to the iron it is replacing. A 3 rescue around 19 degrees slots in where a 3 iron used to be, a 4 rescue near 22 degrees replaces a 4 iron, and a 5 rescue around 25 degrees covers the 5 iron gap. Check the distance gaps in your set and pick the loft that keeps your yardages evenly spaced rather than leaving a hole between your hybrid and your next iron.

Does the SIM Max Rescue help with a slice?

It can. The Twist Face is designed to counteract the high-toe strikes that produce slices, and the large head with a low, deep center of gravity makes it easier to launch the ball straight. It will not fix a swing that is badly out to in, but on the mishits most slicers hit it keeps the ball closer to the target line than a standard long iron would.

Is the SIM Max Rescue good out of the rough?

Yes, that is one of its strengths. The V Steel sole narrows the leading edge and lifts the trailing edge, so the club slides through thick lies and fairway bunkers instead of catching and slowing down. Combined with the high launch, it is one of the easier clubs in the bag to advance the ball from a bad lie.
