Expert Review


The TaylorMade SIM2 Max Irons are an excellent choice for beginners, offering forgiveness and distance.

During our tests, we found the SIM2 Max Irons to be a perfect fit for beginner golfers. Their design is incredibly forgiving, thanks to their low center of gravity and wide soles. Hitting the ball higher and straighter was a breeze, and mishits were more forgiving. The Speed Pocket technology also adds distance to your shots, which is fantastic for building confidence.

However, it's worth noting that the chunkier clubhead, while great for forgiveness, might not suit everyone's eye at address. Some golfers prefer a sleeker look, like the P790 irons from TaylorMade. Additionally, while these irons provide excellent distance and forgiveness, they might not offer the same level of workability as more advanced player's irons. So, if you're a golfer looking to shape your shots precisely, you might find these less accommodating.

Ultimately, while they might be the go-to choice for beginners, they may not cater to every golfer's aesthetic and workability preferences. Ultimately, your choice should align with your goals on the course and your personal preferences in terms of looks and playability.
