THE NEW KING OF WEDGES? TAYLORMADE MG2 REVIEW
THE NEW KING OF WEDGES? TAYLORMADE MG2 REVIEW When buying wedges we all want them to look great and stay looking great for as long as possible… but these new taylormade milled grind 2 wedges are different… they feature raw face technology which is designed to rust over time. will this get you more backspin? more control? and ultimately lead to lower scores? ive always been a huge fan of titleist vokey wedges and have always played them, currently I have the pokey sm7 in the bag… will these mg2 wedges change me out of the vokey wedges? lets find out… and lets do it now!
Okay so I got no actual info from this video except that it'll rust
Paid Taylormade. Rust wedges have been around for years. Grind 2 is probably more of a intrigue
is there a james robinson, whats in the bag? idk i guess ill go check
Hydrogen peroxide, vinegar, and salt
Another great video James! Thanks! Could you possibly do a review of the "stock" gap wedges? I see that most makes have a gap wedge that you can buy with the iron sets… would be interesting to see how they compare against the 50°/52° specialist wedges! ??
is the standard bounce more of a full grind for square shots and the low bounce has heel/toe relief to open the face on tight lights / hard packed sand? how does the standard (higher bounce) wedge perform if you are in soft sand and want to open the face but theres no heel relief?
how are you finding these now they have rusted mate.
Hit them with some vinegar for quicker rusting.
Hmmmmm…………….Doesn't rust add an uneven layer of metal deposits on the face and in the grooves? Convince me otherwise!
Iodine , from a chemist , instant rust overnight
Oxygenate?…you mean oxidise. If you want to rust these quickly use hydrogen peroxide…….2Fe (iron) + 3H2O2 (peroxide) —> Fe2O3 (rust) + 3H2O (water)
Still NO Rust.RUST-RUST-RUST.Have they Rusted yet James????
What do the two bounce options equate to in old money?@jamesrobinson
Do they feel softer than the previous version? FYI-Fastest way to get rust is to leave them in a jar of coca-cola for 12-24hours then take out
I just bought the TM MG2 56 dgreee standard bounce chrome wedge. Hit some practice shots with it and enjoyed it. Love the look and feel of it . Will play 18 holes later today and see how they are in the fairway and around the green. Good review James. Cheers mate.
It`s a bit like – a watched kettle never boils- a watched wedge never rusts lol .Some of these names are getting a bit long though- hard to remember.
Rusty face, stupid idea!!! ???
Should watch Rick Shiels rust it up in 10 minutes 🙂
Not a fan of clubs rusting, probably the OCD traits in me? I’ll stick with my Vokey SM7 wedges!
Compare them against the 'real' King – the Cobra King MIM 🙂
James, can you do a compare with the rusty face against a MK1 MG, perhaps with a wet face too??
So TaylorMade introduces new wedges the get rusty?? How can they legal?? I have Cleveland wedges with “Zip Grooves’ and I’m not sure they would legal for use in any tournaments. Many of us the have been around golf for 50+ years have been trying to keep rust off our club faces and steel shafts. Just saying!!
I like your channel but please speak 20% slower. Lets do it, and do it now!
Glad to see that deserted springs is as busy as usual NOT!!!!
Would love to these the 60 degree of these vs the big foot high toe
You can get the rust in hours with some salt spray, heat and oxygen
Personally I think that rusty golf clubs are ridiculous. I don’t believe they’ll give more spin over time/more rust.
I like my clubs nice and clean everytime I hit them.
I didn't spend too much on my wedges. Picked up older 52, 56 and a 60 TM Z spin, and they all are great. Awesome control.
