Hello all,

I have purchased a used SLDR rescue club in 17 degree setting as standard. Now as it was not new I didn't receive the adjustment chart or tool (but I already had one).

I have googled and been on the Taylormade website but cannot seem to find it. Any kind soul have one they could take a picture of or point me in the relevant direction ?

Seems simple that it sits neutral at standard loft and looks slightly open/closed at address when put down and up in loft respectively, would just like to know more about the settings in between.

Thanks in advance for any help.
 

Yes hilarious well done :smirk:

I did mention I used Google and your brilliance in 'let me google that for you' brings up all the SLDR DRIVER charts when I would like the HYBRID/RESCUE.

I have one at work will post pic Monday if nothing surfaces in meantime. Increments are up and down 0.75 each division I think.


Thanks you for the reply that would be great if you could post that up. I made an educated guess it was 0.75 increments with some upright lie angles but would like to have a peek at the chart to see what it does to the face etc. Appreciate it.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'does to the face'. If you adjust the TM loft Sleeve on your club it will have the following ranges and impacts -

neutral - 17 degrees of loft and 59 degree lie angle
2 x increments either way of 0.75 degrees of loft and the same adjustment to the lie angle goes with it ie max loft is 18.5 with a lie angle of 60.5 - min loft is 15.5 degree and a lie angle of 57.5 degrees.

these measurements will only apply when the club face is aligned with the target!!! If you close or open the club face then you will be increasing or decreasing the loft from the setting in exactly the same way as any other non adjustable club - you will also be affecting the lie angle of the sole.

you might find it helpful to stick a cocktail stick (or similar) into a bit of bluetac perpendicular to the club face and play around with the sleeve adjustments whilst ensuring that the true alignment of the club face isn't altered (in order to get a feel for how it should look at address in the various settings)
