Last year’s SIM Max rescue was extremely successful for TaylorMade and I don’t think even they could have predicted how much it would be used by its roster of tour stars.
Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson were just two of the players to put it in play – and DJ even had two in play when he won the Travelers Championship.

This year TaylorMade have expanded their hybrid line up and added a SIM2 offering to the existing Max model.

TaylorMade SIM2 hybrids: First impressions
The SIM2 has an all-black finish and more iron-like shaping whereas the SIM2 Max has kept similar shape and styling to last year’s offering.
I really liked last year’s Max model and I am pleased to see it hasn’t changed too much this year in terms of shape. I do really like the new colour scheme though. I also think TaylorMade have been really clever with the styling of the SIM2 model as it is so different. The all-black finish looks great and will definitely intrigue non hybrid players to give it a go.
