Leaked: TaylorMade R-Series Wedges
Photos leaked in our forum show what appears to be a new TaylorMade wedge line called the R-Series.
The two photos show two different grinds, TaylorMade’s ATV Grind and a new Tour Grind. The two options are consistent with the company’s current wedge line, Tour Preferred.
ATV Grind
Tour Grind
The wedges have TaylorMade’s much loved “TP” badge on their backs, which after disappearing from TaylorMade club heads for several years returned to TaylorMade irons this fall with the RSi TP.
The R-Series wedges also include the words “EF Spin Groove.” Could the grooves create “extra friction” for more spin?
We’ll let you know as soon as we do.

Rumor is… Groves are so good, tour guys will be able to go a whole season without replacing.

I hope everybody realizes the playability of a wedge has nothing to do with how the back of it looks. A negative prejudice before physical testing is ignorant.

Rough crowd! I don’t play TM except for last year’s Tour Preferred wedges which I think are great.

We’ll they can’t be any worse than their last few wedge offering which were just cheap and crap
Saw the new R15 last weekend and it looked very classy, these look nasty

Ummm…Hello Taylormade, this is Mizuno calling. Just wanted to let you know that we have already have R Series Wedges out. Back in like 2006. Stop ripping our stuff off! Go find a new name, produce something worthwhile and take more than 2 months before you go to market with it.

They look very very cheap. For fuggs sake just make some classic looking forged wedges and watch them fly off the shelves…

piece of normality and i say so bloody what?
do they expect me to be excited when there are better wedges on the market ..no…so they are therefore becoming a bit of a joke co releasing so many new clubs with negligible improvement in each one.

Hopefully it performs better than it looks, and as mentioned there are probably much better options out there, Mack Daddy 2, Vokey and Mizuno for starters.

Taylormade is just a marketing company that spits out as much **** as possible.

Strongly Agree! Seems Taylormade made an error thinking new products every two months was a positive.

no Golf manufacture can compete in the driver market however they have a long way to go in the wedge market.

Why should they? Titleist just floated their new line-the 915 with “active recoil channels”. Ping and Cobra just filed patents to introduce “slots”in their next line of woods. So TMAG will just sit back and wait for everybody else to play catch up and then they will introduce the next technological evolution rendering everybody else’s obsolete
Kind of like what they did when then introduced golfers to the “Metal” wood.

looks like regis is wrong again
enrique
Jan 8, 2015 at 7:40 pm
These look ok.
The last wedge iteration from TMAG looked fantastic but left you in disbelief with some of the worst feel in a wedge…ever. It felt like a $49 starter wedge from Sam’s Club.
Turd Ferguson
Jan 8, 2015 at 6:26 pm
How can you tell anything from this camera angle? Are we just commenting on the graphics, or is the feel/grind of the wedge important?
note* these look terrible and probably are (all other TM wedges are unplayable)

As far as looks, they moved in the right direction with their cleanish tp wedges last year. Looks like they locked that designer back in the basement to favor guys producing more dynamic* designs.
