TaylorMade has launched its new SIM Max Rescue which for the first time in the company’s history features V Steel technology in a TaylorMade hybrid.

The V Steel technology in TaylorMade’s SIM Max Rescue is designed to deliver improved turf interaction and reduced friction from a number of different lies. The new rescue also includes a reshaped leading edge which works in tandem with the V Steel technology in a bid to provide players with improved playability and strike conditions.

2020 TaylorMade SIM Max Rescue: Details

The SIM Max Rescue features a rounded toe and adjusted face angle to provide for a new-look shape at address. The rescue also contains a C300 Steel face (also found in the SIM Max fairway metals) which is designed to improve ball speed, durability, and overall performance.

Twist Face and Speed Pocket technologies round off the SIM Max Rescue.

The Speed Pocket is designed to provide increased ball speed to the entire face while improving forgiveness on low-face impacts, with a slot insert also designed to sit flush with the sole to enhance sole interaction and eliminate turf drag. The Twist Face technology aims to counteract common mis-hits on the toe, heel and low on the face.

Spotted: Nate Lashley’s Ping PLD “Wolverine” putter

Ping PLD putters have been a very common site on profesional tours. Pros seem to gravitate toward the PLD line’s custom options and precision milling. We have seen the PLD line expanded over the years, but we haven’t seen too many, if any, large mallets.

This week we spotted a PLD putter in Nate Lashley’s bag that has a similar look to the old Ping Wolverine head shape. This putter is a large mallet with the famous “claws” on the outside and oval center that housed the alignment aid.

Nick’s putter has the PLD logo on the back but also looks like it might have an insert installed on the face. It is hard to tell but at the address picture, it looks like the face is a lighter material than the rest of the putters. The putter is center-shafted and should be face-balanced with a high MOI for stability and forgiveness on mishits. The sole is completely milled and has no markings of name or technologies that might be present in the head. A single white site line is on the top of the putter for alignment.
