Taylormade MG2 is there a full RAW version on tour?


Recommended Posts

Is there a full RAW version on tour in the MG2 or are they players using the chromed version with the RAW face?

we stripped that black finish off and it turned out pretty nicely as an "all raw" option

They're using the chrome version with the raw face, based on WITB pics and TV coverage from before the shutdown. But it has looked like Tiger might be using a raw version from some pics I've seen.

^ Not sure if the TMs coating is the same, but I stripped the black coating of my PM grind by soaking in vinegar overnight, little work with the scrubber pad and its full raw and rusting nicely.

Unfortunately, the black wedges with the finish stripped off to bring them to “raw” are just never quite the same as actual raw wedges. They just don’t rust as well, and they have a different, firmer (nearly “clicky”) feel.

I am Not the only one locally , but my MG2 faces still do Not have rust forming on them. I have had them in play for months until the shutdown. This puzzles me along with a good friend, that played on the Web.com Tour for years and now is a master fitter and State Open champion in multiple states. His MG2's direct from Taylormade, have no rust on the face either. The Demo wedges that were sent in and have never been outside have a very rusted face. My assumption would be the plant uses a slightly different metal and or coating? Who knows, just strange. My MG2's are awesome and the best wedges I have played to date.

@TrueWRX We really did it as a test to see how it would look and honestly didn't have much on course testing with it. I'll try to see if i can do a little work with it to see

I think I like last years high toe wedges better than the milled grinds.

I ended up going the MyHi-Toe route in Raw for both 52 and 58 and couldn't be happier.

What is a ton more? I am not necessarily talking about the full face wedge either. But the complete line.

Well for me on trackman it was averaged about 500 rpm difference and got as high as 750 on some. Yeah I was testing the 56 against each other and that is a full face as well. I have love the combo of MG2 50 and 56 with a 60 Hi Toe

the lower spin on he hi toe is also consistent with what MGS found in their testing

Won’t the hi toe always spin a little less than another comparable standard wedge, because of the higher center of gravity? I never really thought of spin as a reason to consider the hi toe, but rather the versatility on shots around the green.

Good news if you're looking for a full Raw MG2. MyMG2 wedges are now available on the TaylorMade website. Offer finishes in Raw, Cobalt Nickel, Chrome and Black.
