TaylorMade SIM Max Golf Drivers
The TaylorMade SIM Max Driver is a forgiving driver designed for golfers who want to hit the ball longer and straighter off the tee. It features a large sweet spot, an asymmetric sole design to reduce drag, and technology to promote faster ball speed. With its easy launch and high forgiveness, the SIM Max Driver is a great option for mid-to-high handicappers who want to improve their distance and accuracy off the tee.
Key features include:
Asymmetric Sole Shape | Designed to provide faster clubhead speed while the rear weight creates high MOI for improved forgiveness. |
Speed Injected | Improves ball speed across the face by calibrating each head to the threshold of the legal speed limit. |
Twist Face | Uses corrective face angles designed to overcome inherent golfer tendencies on mis-hits. |
Multi-Material Construction | Creates a head design where weight is positioned precisely in the head for ultra-low CG and high MOI. |
Thru-Slot Speed Pocket | Delivers enhanced sole flexibility to create additional ball speed as well as improved forgiveness. |
Inverted Cone Technology | This face technology expands the C.O.R. zone of the clubface, resulting in a larger sweet spot. |
Top Competitors
Released around the same year, the Callaway Rogue Sub Zero Driver offers a strong alternative, focusing on a similar blend of distance and forgiveness as the SIM Max. It boasts a large titanium clubface designed for high ball speeds and a forgiving overall design. However, the key differentiating factor is the adjustable hosel that allows golfers to fine-tune loft (±2 degrees) for launch angle optimization. The Ping G410 Plus Driver takes a slightly different approach, prioritizing forgiveness and offering more customization options compared to the SIM Max. It features a large face and internal weighting technology for distance potential. The key differentiating factor is allowing golfers to adjust weight distribution to influence shot shape (draw or fade bias) in addition to loft adjustments.
Progression of the SIM Max driver:
The TaylorMade SIM Max Driver (released in 2020) belonged to a lineage of TaylorMade drivers focused on distance and forgiveness. The SIM Max was released after the highly successful M series, which were the first TaylorMade drivers to have a multi-material combination of titanium, carbon toe panel, and six-layer carbon composite crown.
Upgrades to the SIM Max Driver include:
- Reinvented Driver Shape: Delivers both speed and forgiveness through advanced aerodynamics combined with a high-MOI multi-material construction.
- New asymmetric Sole Shape: Reduces drag at the most critical part of the swing and improve aerodynamics.
- Redesigned Inertia Generator: Places weight at the extreme low-and-back portion of the club for enhanced forgiveness.
- New Speed Injected Twist Face: Designed to improve ball speed across the face and increase accuracy on mis-hits.
👍 Pros |

The look and feel of the SIM give you confidence every time you stand over the ball. |
The SIM Max preforms way better than my RBZ. Love the feedback I get with this driver. Feels super durable. |
I'm finding the center of the face with this SIM Max driver every time! |
👎 Cons |
---|
The drivers face developed a huge crack. Only had it for 6 months. |
Whenever I hit with it, it kinda feels like I’m hitting with a plastic driver or something. |
This driver is long but I didn't find it very forgiving. Disappointed. |
The TaylorMade SIM Max Driver is a modern classic. It's got a large, 460cc clubhead with a forgiving sweet spot, and the inertia generator technology helps transfer more energy to the ball at impact for impressive distance gains. It’s super easy it is to launch the ball off the tee and the Twist Face technology helps straighten out off-center hits, which can be a lifesaver for golfers who slice or hook their drives. If you're looking for a forgiving driver that delivers distance and easy launch, the TaylorMade SIM Max Driver is a good choice.
