Milled Grind 2 TW
CaddyIndex™ breakdown: what our research found across each of the six performance dimensions, with cited sources.
You're a skilled ball-striker who wants Tiger Woods' exact 56° and 60° wedge grinds and tour build.
You need a full gapping set or forgiveness - this is a two-club, tour-spec specialist that rewards good strikes.
Pros
- Tiger Woods' exact wedge grinds at retail - the same 56° and 60° he games, built with his direct input
- Versatile Tiger grinds - a dual-sole 56° (open/closed trajectory control) and a flop-friendly 60° with leading-edge relief
- A raw ZTP face for greenside spin, especially in the wet
- Built to tour spec - Dynamic Gold S400 shafts and corded Tour Velvet grips
Cons
- Only two lofts (56° and 60°) - not a full gapping set
- Tour-spec and demanding - it rewards good strikes, with little forgiveness
- The same TPU platform as the MG2 - mishits can feel dead
By dimension
Forgiveness
Tiger-spec and demanding - the MG2 TW mirrors a 15-time major champion's exact sole and grind setup, a tour-spec build that rewards good strikes, and it shares the standard MG2's TPU insert that over-dampens mishits. Built for an elite striker, with little margin for error.
Distance
Confident control - spin rates on pitch and full shots were good, giving confidence to throw the ball all the way to a back pin provided the strike is good, the raw ZTP face giving a stable, friction-rich flight. Dependable distance control for a clean striker.
Workability
Tiger's versatile grinds - the 56° dual sole with heavy heel relief (12° overall bounce, 24° at the leading edge) for controlling trajectory open or closed, and the 60° with extra leading-edge relief for firm-turf flops. Highly workable within its two lofts.
Feel
Soft on center, like the MG2 - the platform's TPU back-cavity insert gives a soft, responsive on-center feel, though mishits feel dead, with mass redistribution that optimizes the CG for enhanced feel. Excellent when struck well.
Sound
A bold click - the platform's bold, crisp click on centered contact, a clean impact note matched to the feel. Satisfying on center, muted on the miss.
Looks at address
Tour-spec, function-first - built to an exact retail tour spec with a clean tour shape and raw finish, though it shares the standard MG2's boxy, square-leaning head. A purposeful, tour-cachet look.
