Options per loft
- Hi-Toe 4
- MG5
What the differences mean
The MG5 offers the wider selection: 23 loft/bounce/grind combinations against 17 for the Hi-Toe 4. The MG5 also has the deeper grind catalogue: 6 sole grinds against 5.
The Hi-Toe 4 is sold from 50° to 60°, the MG5 from 46° to 60°. Only the MG5 comes in 46° and 48°.
The scoring lofts are where bounce and grind choice matters most: at 56° the MG5 offers 5 options to 4; at 58° both offer 5 options; at 60° the MG5 offers 6 options to 5. More options at a degree means more ways to match the sole to your turf and swing, which is what a wedge fitting actually selects.
The two lines launched 1 year apart (2024 and 2025), so they compete head-to-head rather than one replacing the other.
Which should you choose?
Neither is the better wedge outright — both are current tour-style designs. The MG5 offers the wider option matrix, which matters if you want an unusual bounce or grind at your loft; otherwise choose on feel, finish and price at the combination you actually play.
Both option charts are reproduced in full on their own pages: TaylorMade Hi-Toe 4 specs and TaylorMade MG5 specs.
