Grant Horvat And Trottie Golf Test Hi-Toe 4 vs MG4 Wedge
Team TaylorMade’s Grant Horvat and Trottie Golf are at the Kingdom in Carlsbad testing Hi-Toe 4 wedge with MG4 wedge to see which kind of player would fit into each club.
They start out hitting some 40-yard pitch shots with each one and talk about launch and spin, as well as feel and forgiveness. Then they move to the bunker where you can really tell the difference between the full face grooves on Hi-Toe 4 and the feel of MG4 wedge.
Each wedge has its own benefits.
MG4 WEDGE: LASER SCORING FOR BETTER SPIN
Milled Grind 4 utilizes laser etched Spin Tread and a raw face to provide better bite around the greens and superior spin in wet conditions. Refined shaping creates a smooth aesthetic that inspires creativity around the greens, while improved mass distribution provides a solid feel.
Features:
Improved Spin in Wet Conditions
Spin Tread technology utilizes laser etching to channel away moisture and help retain spin in wet conditions. The same way that tire treads help your car stay connected to the road, Spin Tread redirects water at impact and creates more friction between the club face and golf ball to impart more spin than prior generations.
Refined Shaping
MG4 features refinements in shape and visual appeal with a focus on what players perceive at address. Details from the hosel blend, offset and leading-edge straightness were all inspired by the insights and preferences of the best players and most experienced designers. Compared to the previous MG3, MG4 showcases a slightly larger footprint that provides players with a sense of roundness, smoothness and improved ease of use.
Raw Face & New Finish
There’s a reason raw wedges are preferred by the game’s best players. The unplated material will rust over time to preserve consistent spin while also delivering better performance in wet conditions. A new refined finish with a slightly darker tint minimizes glare and blends seamlessly with the raw face for a unified appearance.
Milled Grind Soles
The milling process maximizes consistency, maintaining tolerance levels difficult for a human to repeat. The result is a precisely crafted grind on each and every wedge that produces optimal turf interaction and consistent performance.

HI-TOE 4 WEDGE: ALL-TERRAIN ALL THE TIME
Hi-Toe 4 wedges build on the success of previous Hi-Toe generations, but with some noticeable Tour-tested improvements to help you play with more confidence, consistency, and versatility around the green.
No matter if you’re playing on fescue-strewn links or out of thick Bermuda rough, swing the club steeply or on a shallower arc, there’s a Hi-Toe 4 wedge for you.
Lofts ranging from 50° to 60°, and five different grinds give you plenty of choices to optimize your wedge makeup depending on your swing style and the conditions you play in.
Features:
Raw Face
Hi-Toe 4 wedges feature a raw face which provides another element of friction to give golfers more control around the greens. Raw face wedges reduce glare and are preferred by Touring professionals all over the world. The bottom groove with gold infill helps golfers center the ball and ensures the face is aimed square to the target.
Hop, Hop, Stop
Spin it like never before with Hi-Toe 4. Hi-Toe 4 wedges boast full-face grooves in the 54°, 56°, 58°, and 60° lofts and all lofts utilize Spin Tread technology. These design features increase friction with the ball at impact, while also channeling away moisture in wet conditions.
Confidence To Hit Any Shot
Hi-Toe 4 wedges mark a new generation of Hi-Toe design with an expanded toe pad that increases clubface surface area and adds a layer of player confidence. The wedges also feature an elevated CG that promotes lower launch conditions and increased spin.
Milled Grind Sole
Consistent geometry in the sole of a wedge is imperative to ensure consistent performance. TaylorMade’s milling process maintains razor-thin tolerances that maximize quality assurance in every wedge we make.
Copper Finish
Hi-Toe 4 wedges come in an innovative copper finish that’s pleasing to the eye. Over time, the finish develops a patina for a unique look without sacrificing performance.
