Why Choose a Used TaylorMade SIM2 Fairway Wood

The SIM2 fairway range is designed for golfers who want TaylorMade distance, V Steel turf interaction and a choice of heads across different playing needs.

The range includes:

• SIM2 Titanium
• SIM2 Max
• SIM2 Max D

Giving players options between lower-spinning distance, all-round forgiveness and easier launch with draw bias.

A SIM2 fairway wood is a reliable option for golfers who want a club that can be used from the tee or the fairway.

It can suit players looking for a second club off the tee, a longer approach option into par 5s, or a more forgiving alternative to a long iron.

Is this the right model for you?

The SIM2 Fairway range suits players who want proven TaylorMade fairway wood performance with speed, playability and forgiveness.

It works well for golfers who want reliable distance from the tee, useful launch from the fairway and more control than driver on tighter holes.

The SIM2 Max Fairway is the best starting point for most golfers. It has a larger 190cc head, C300 steel face and V Steel sole, making it a good option for players who want distance and forgiveness without moving into a more better-player head.

The SIM2 Titanium Fairway is developed for the better player who wants a lower-spinning fairway wood with more control over flight.

Its compact 170cc head, titanium construction, carbon crown and heavy steel sole are designed to produce fast ball speed with a flatter, more penetrating flight, which can help low-handicap golfers reduce excess spin and shape shots more easily.

The SIM2 Max D Fairway is aimed at golfers who want extra help launching the ball and reducing a slice. Its draw-biased setup is useful for players who tend to miss right and want a fairway wood that feels easier to square through impact.

Key Features of Used TaylorMade SIM2 Fairway Woods

The SIM2 fairway woods are built around ball speed, forgiveness and turf interaction.

TaylorMade used the V Steel sole to help the club move through the turf more cleanly, while Twist Face and Speed Pocket technology help protect ball speed and direction on imperfect strikes.

From the tee, the SIM2 Fairway range should offer a controlled alternative to driver while still producing good distance.

From the fairway, the V Steel sole and head shape make it useful for long approaches, par 5s and shots where a long iron may be harder to launch.

The range gives golfers clear choices between models. SIM2 Max is the all-rounder, SIM2 Titanium is the lower-spinning option for better players, and SIM2 Max D is the draw-biased option for golfers who want more help turning the ball over.

How this model compares to others

How does the SIM2 compare to older models

The SIM2 fairways followed the original SIM range and built on the successful return of TaylorMade’s V Steel sole.

Compared with older TaylorMade fairways, SIM2 offered improved model separation, refined turf interaction and more forgiveness across the Max and Max D heads.

How does the SIM2 compare to similar models

Against other premium fairway woods from the same period, the SIM2 range stands out because it offers three clear choices.

SIM2 Max is the all-rounder, SIM2 Titanium is for better players wanting lower spin and shot control, and SIM2 Max D is for golfers prioritising launch support and draw bias.

The best choice depends on whether the player wants distance, control or help reducing a right miss.
