The TaylorMade SIM2 Max OS Irons lie-angle progression spans 61°–64°. The 7-iron at 62.5° is the strongest mid-set fitting reference. Higher-loft short irons are more sensitive to a lie error, so the final fit should be checked through the set rather than from one club alone.

SIM2 Max OS Irons lie-angle fingerprint
What stands out about the SIM2 Max OS Irons lie setup?
The listed lie values span 3° across the model.
Every meaningful lie step is 0.5°, giving the progression a very regular shape.
The short-iron end deserves the closest dynamic check because more loft magnifies the directional effect of the same lie error.

Dynamic lie test for the TaylorMade SIM2 Max OS Irons
Test only if the head is safe to bend and dynamic evidence supports it.
Record centred strike and start direction before changing anything.
Use the same setup and ball position for a useful comparison.
Should the TaylorMade SIM2 Max OS Irons be more upright or flatter?
Try more upright if…
- Your solid strikes repeatedly start right of target even when face control is good.
- The toe is noticeably lower than the heel through impact or your strike board / marker test points to a toe-down delivery.
- You feel you have to raise your hands unnaturally just to get the sole to sit correctly.
- A 1° upright test produces a straighter start line without moving impact away from the centre.
Try flatter if…
- Your solid strikes repeatedly start left of target even when face control is good.
- The heel is lower than the toe through impact or a dynamic lie test shows the club is arriving too upright.
- The heel tends to grab the turf first on otherwise centred strikes.
- A 1° flatter test straightens the start line while keeping contact centred.
Lie angle probably is not the main problem if…
- Contact moves all over the face from swing to swing.
- Your misses are mainly hooks or slices caused by face-to-path rather than start direction.
- The club is the wrong playing length or your posture changes significantly from shot to shot.
- One bad shot is the only evidence pointing toward a lie change.
Golf-club specifications can differ by model year, loft, region, custom build and adjustable-hosel setting. Before buying, fitting or changing a club, compare these figures with TaylorMade’s official specifications for your exact model. If a measurement is critical, have the club checked by a qualified fitter. Verify with TaylorMade.
