The Milled Grind 2 is the wedge TaylorMade built for players who want to see exactly the same sole shape on every head. A robotic milling process cuts the sole after the head is formed, so the grind you get is the grind the tour staff signed off on, down to a fraction of a degree. That consistency is the whole pitch here, and it holds up in the dirt.
With lofts running from 46 to 60 degrees, the MG2 covers the gap all the way down to the flop wedge. The forged construction gives you a softer, more connected feel at impact than a stamped cast head, which matters most on the half and three-quarter shots where you're trying to feel the ball come off the face. This is a shot-maker's wedge, not a game-improvement crutch. It rewards clean contact and lets you know when you don't get it.
The Tour Grind sole is the version aimed at better players who like to open the face, slide the wedge under the ball, and manipulate trajectory around the green. If you play firm turf, take shallow divots, or want to hit every flavor of short-side shot, this is the grind built for that hands.

About the TaylorMade MG2
TaylorMade uses progressive lofts across the range, so the sole geometry, bounce, and head shape shift as you move from the 46-degree gap wedge up to the 60. The lower lofts get a fuller, more playable sole for full swings into greens, while the higher lofts open up with more relief so you can lay the face back without the leading edge sitting high. It's the same idea good wedge fitters have chased for years, engineered into one family. The forged head and the milled sole work together on feel and turf interaction. Forging softens the sensation through the ball, and the precision-milled sole keeps the effective bounce honest across every wedge in the bag. You know how each one is going to enter the turf, which is exactly what you want when you're picking a shot under pressure.
Who Should Play the TaylorMade MG2?
- ✓Mid to low handicaps who take shallow divots and play firm or tight lies where a wider sole would bounce into the ball.
- ✓Players who open the face for lobs, flops, and short-side bunker shots and need heel and toe relief to do it cleanly.
- ✓Anyone who values consistent, milled-in bounce and a soft forged feel over maximum forgiveness.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Tour Grind on the MG2 do that other grinds don't?
The Tour Grind gives you extra heel and toe relief so you can open the face and lay it flat without the leading edge lifting off the ground. That makes it the choice for players who like to manipulate the face around the green and play off firmer turf. If you take deeper divots or want more forgiveness on square-faced full swings, a higher-bounce standard grind fits better.
What lofts does the TaylorMade MG2 come in?
The MG2 is offered in 46, 48, 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, and 60 degrees. That range lets you fill your setup gap wedge and pitching wedge spacing all the way down to a 60-degree flop, and the progressive design means the sole and bounce change as the lofts climb.
Is the MG2 forged, and does that change how it feels?
Yes, it uses a forged head, which gives a softer, more connected feel at impact than a cast wedge. You notice it most on partial shots and delicate pitches where you're trying to feel the ball sit on the face. It doesn't make the wedge more forgiving, it just makes clean strikes feel better and mishits easier to diagnose.
What makes the milled sole worth it?
TaylorMade machines the sole after the head is made, so the grind matches the intended spec far more precisely than a hand-ground or purely cast sole. In practice that means the bounce and turf interaction are consistent from wedge to wedge, so a shot you groove with your 56 behaves the way you expect with your 60.
Should a higher handicapper play the MG2 Tour Grind?
It can work, but the Tour Grind is a low-relief, better-player sole. If you tend to take steep divots or catch shots fat, the reduced bounce will bite you. A higher handicapper is usually better off with a standard or high-bounce MG2, or a more forgiving cavity wedge, and saving the Tour Grind for once contact gets more repeatable.
