TaylorMade Milled Grind 5 Wedge

The TaylorMade MG5 wedge is designed for golfers who demand precision, feel, and high spin performance in their short game. It’s the latest evolution in TaylorMade’s Milled Grind series, with several upgrades aimed at both tour professionals and serious amateurs.

1. Fully Forged Construction
The MG5 is the first in the Milled Grind line to feature a fully forged head, made from soft carbon steel. This construction delivers a noticeably soft, responsive feel at impact, favored by better players.

2. Maximum Spin Performance
The wedge uses saw-milled grooves with tighter tolerances and sharper edges to increase spin. These grooves are designed to grip the ball more effectively, especially on finesse shots around the green.

3. Spin Tread Technology
The face is left unplated (raw) to rust naturally over time, which maintains friction. It also incorporates laser-etched Spin Tread channels that help manage moisture and debris, improving spin consistency in wet or damp conditions.

4. Precision Milling
Each wedge is machine-milled to exacting specifications, including the sole grinds. This ensures consistency from wedge to wedge and minimizes the variability that can come from traditional hand polishing.

5. Refined Shaping
Compared to its predecessor, the MG5 has a more symmetrical profile, a cleaner topline, and a refined leading edge, offering better alignment and shot-making control.

6. Versatile Sole Grinds
The MG5 is available in six different sole grinds to suit a wide range of swing types and turf conditions:

• SB – Standard bounce, good all-around performance

• SC – Versatile grind with moderate heel/toe relief

• SX – Wide sole, ideal for bunkers and softer lies

• HB – High bounce, suited for steeper swings

• LB – Low bounce, great for firmer turf and shallower angles

• TW – Tour-inspired grind designed in collaboration with Tiger Woods

7. Premium Finishes
Available in two finishes: a traditional chrome for a classic look and a charcoal option for reduced glare and a more modern appearance.

Performance Summary

The MG5 wedge is designed to deliver:

• Soft, responsive feel through its forged construction
• Exceptional spin, even in challenging conditions
• Precise turf interaction and shot versatility
• A wide range of loft, bounce, and grind combinations to match individual play styles
