The versatile Hi Toe 3 promises spin and control from all lies

TaylorMade has unveiled the next generation of its Hi-Toe wedge series with the launch of the all-new Hi-Toe 3.

With a focus on versatility and added performance on shots closest to the green, TaylorMade’s engineers have designed a club capable of producing the entire catalogue of short-game shots. From low-launching, high-spinning checkers to full-on open-faced flops, Hi-Toe 3 has been meticulously crafted to help golfers unlock creativity and save strokes around the green.

The Hi-Toe 3 design produces a higher centre of gravity that is engineered for a lower launch and more spin, delivering even better control and spin properties on full swings.

A four-way cambered sole allows for the forgiveness associated with high bounce while maintaining a low leading edge, making it playable from tight lies and visually appealing to better players. Trailing edge relief adds to the versatility by allowing golfers to open the face to manipulate loft, trajectory, and spin on short shots. The large ZTP RAW Grooves feature radii further engineered for optimal spin in various conditions.

New elements that enhance Hi-Toe 3’s versatility include expanding full-length scoring lines to all lofts above 54° which higher help generate spin around the green when the face is rotated open on shorter shots, while the face features raised micro-ribs – first used in TaylorMade’s Milled Grind 3 wedge – which are positioned between the full grooves to add texture to the face and increase spin and performance on partial shots around the green.

An aged copper finish adds a premium aesthetic and will blend seamlessly with the RAW face as it rusts over time.

Bill Price, TaylorMade’s director of product creation for wedges and putters, said: “Our tour players all offered great input individually [to the design of the High Toe 3], but collectively everyone wanted something versatile. They wanted a single wedge that could perform around the greens from deep rough, thick fescue, bunkers with different sands, in wet conditions and from tight lies. That’s a lot to fit into a single design, but with Hi-Toe 3 we’ve done it.”
