Dominate the fairways with GAPR, the newest hybrid clubs from Taylormade.
Nearly every golfer has a gapping challenge in the long part of their set; specifically, the difficult-to-manage yardage between the longest playable iron and the shortest metalwood. With a majority of players not comfortable hitting 3, 4 and even 5 irons consistently to precise yardages or with any dependable accuracy, and with 5, 7 and 9 woods often difficult to control, TaylorMade Golf has engineered a line of products that allow golfers to get the distance, carry and control needed to fill these gaps.

The result is GAPR, three distinct hybrid iron-style clubs from Taylormade that invite golfers to choose their shape, find their distance, and bridge their gap.
In each of the three different GAPR models, engineers have incorporated TaylorMade’s innovative SpeedFoam technology, which serves the dual purpose of generating ball speed while also dampening vibrations to create
optimal sound and feel. SpeedFoam is injected into the club head in liquid form before expanding within the club, providing increased face support while maintaining the soft, solid sound and feel that golfers prefer.
The new line-up includes the GAPT LO; the smallest of the three new models, it has been designed primarily for players with faster ball speeds and features a low-forward CG for extreme distance with a mid-to-low trajectory.
The GAPR MID is slightly larger in size and has been designed with players of all skill levels in mind. Featuring a CG that is ultra-low and forward for maximum distance and a mid-high trajectory, GAPR MID has an iron face profile that inspires confidence and easy alignment and a medium-wide sole width for ease of play and versatility.
Finally, the GAPR HI, also designed for the widest range of players, features an ultra-low/back CG for maximum distance and a high, penetrating trajectory. The HI features modern Rescue shaping with a high-toe, peanut-shaped clubhead that differs from the other two models.

Each GAPR comes equipped with a KBS Hybrid shaft in either an 80/x, 80/s, 70/r or 60/a profile (via custom) and a Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 grip. Additional shaft options are available through TaylorMade’s custom program.
