TAYLORMADE SIM2 RESCUE £259

Following feedback from the likes of Dustin Johnson and Rory Mcilroy, this new SIM2 hybrid features a more compact shape than its predecessor and interacts with the turf just like an iron thanks to a new leading edge and updated V-steel design.

We love the all-black colour scheme and the club sits beautifully square behind the ball. Twist Face and Speed Pocket technology ensure it delivers an excellent blend of distance, control and forgiveness.

For golfers not looking solely for maximum yardage, but who also place a premium on being able to shape shots and control their ball flight, the SIM2 Rescue should be top of the list to try this season.
