TaylorMade’s MG5 is the current wedge line, succeeding MG4. Working through the manufacturer’s official combo listings, loft by loft, bounce by bounce, we counted 21 total configurations across nine lofts, 46.09° through 60.12°.
🔴 Correction, 30 August 2026. This piece originally said that of the five MG5 grinds only SB publishes lie angle, length and swingweight, and that no numbers could be found for the other four. That is not what TaylorMade’s page shows. Opened in a browser on 30 August 2026, the MG5 product page carries one spec table covering all five grinds — GRIND, LOFT, BOUNCE, LENGTH, LIE, HAND, SWINGWEIGHT, FINISH — for every one of the 21 combinations. Whether the table was absent when this piece was researched or was simply missed, we cannot now establish. The combo count and loft range below were checked against the same page and are correct. The piece has been rewritten around what the table actually says.
1. 21 combos, 46° through 60° — and one table covering all of them
| Grind | Lofts offered | Bounce range |
|---|---|---|
| SB | 46, 48, 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60° | 9-12° |
| SC | 54, 56, 58, 60° | 9-10° |
| SX | 58, 60° | 11° |
| HB | 54, 56, 58, 60° | 12-14° |
| LB | 56, 58, 60° | 8° |
Read off TaylorMade’s published spec table, which gives length, lie, hand availability and swingweight for every row.
The official lineup runs from 46.09° at the low end to 60.12° at the high end, 21 combinations in total, spread across five grind codes and varying bounce values within each loft.
2. What the table actually shows: lie never moves
| Loft band | Length | Swingweight (950GH / DG MID115) |
|---|---|---|
| 48-52° | 35.75-35.5in | D2 / D3.5-D4.5 |
| 54-56° | 35.25in | D4 / D5 |
| 58-60° | 35in | D4 / D5.5 |
Shaft-dependent swingweight figures, from the original research. TaylorMade’s current page lists a single stock swingweight column (D3/D5) rather than these per-shaft values, so treat the per-shaft numbers as unconfirmed against the live page.
Lie angle is 64° on all 21 combinations — every grind, every loft, from the 46° SB to the 60° HB. Nothing in the fitting dimensions moves with the grind; what moves is bounce and sole shape. That is the useful thing the table says, and it is easy to miss when the eye goes to the loft column.
Length steps with loft rather than grind: 35.75” at 46-48°, 35.5” at 50-52°, 35.25” at 54-56°, 35” at 58-60°. Stock swingweight is D3 on the 46-52° SB wedges and D5 everywhere else.
The per-shaft figures above came from the original research and we could not reproduce them on the current page, which publishes one stock swingweight per row. The underlying point still holds and is worth keeping in mind: a swingweight on a spec sheet belongs to a head-and-shaft combination, not to the head alone — change the shaft and the number moves.
Three shaft options are listed for the line: N.S.PRO 950GH, Dynamic Gold MID115, and Tour Issue 115. Whether all three are available across every combo, or restricted to certain lofts, isn’t made clear on the product page. Anyone set on a specific shaft should confirm stock loft by loft before buying.
3. Five grinds, and the Tiger Woods grind is a separate product
MG5’s grind lineup is five codes: SB, SC, SX, HB, and LB. One thing worth flagging: the Tiger Woods (TW) grind is not one of these five. It’s sold as a distinct product — the “MG5 Tiger Woods Grind Wedge” — listed at $219.99, and it doesn’t appear in the standard line’s grind dropdown.
SB reads as the de facto reference grind for a simpler reason: it spans the widest loft range, 46° through 60°, while the other four start at 54° or higher. If you want a single grind through the whole wedge set, it is the only one that covers it.
TaylorMade describes the head as a one-piece forged 1025 carbon steel construction, in Chrome or Charcoal finishes, with the three shaft options noted above. 1025 carbon steel shows up elsewhere in current wedge lines too — Callaway’s Opus SP uses the same alloy for its face. The two aren’t built the same way, though: MG5 forges the whole head from it, while Opus SP uses it only for the face and a different material for the body.
4. What we could not confirm
| Item | Status |
|---|---|
| Lie/length/swingweight for SC, SX, HB, LB | No published table found for any of the four |
| Whether all 3 shafts apply to every combo | Not made clear on the product page |
| Manufacturer distance/spin claims | Unverifiable, not cited |
What Could Not Be Confirmed — Left blank rather than filled in. MG5 forges its whole head from 1025 carbon steel — Opus SP uses the same alloy, but only for the face.
- Lie angle, length, and swingweight for SC, SX, HB, and LB grinds — no published table exists for these, as far as we could find.
- Whether the three shaft options apply to every combo or only certain lofts — not made clear on the product page.
- Availability of the standalone Tiger Woods grind wedge in specific markets — not confirmed.
- Manufacturer distance/spin claims — not independently verifiable, so not cited here.
Summary
MG5’s official lineup runs 21 combos across nine lofts, but full spec disclosure only exists for one grind: SB, with lie angle, length, and swingweight published for every loft it’s offered at. The other four grinds — SC, SX, HB, LB — have published grind codes and loft availability, but no lie/length/swingweight numbers anywhere we could find.
If SB doesn’t match what you’re looking for, budget extra time to confirm the missing numbers in person before buying.
Every figure in this piece came from a confirmed source. Where we couldn’t confirm a value, we left it blank rather than guess.
Sources
- TaylorMade MG5 product page — opened in a browser on 30 August 2026. The loft selector lists all 21 combinations from 46.09° to 60.12°, and the spec table gives grind, loft, bounce, length, lie, hand availability and swingweight for every one of them.
This page is also what established that this piece’s original finding — that only the SB grind publishes a spec table — was wrong; the correction at the top records that. The per-shaft swingweight figures from the original research could not be reproduced here and are marked as unconfirmed where they appear.
