2025 generation

Distance+

TaylorMade’s 2025 Distance+ combines a REACT Speed Core, ionomer cover and Plus Alignment Aid. Current UK product identity is secure, but conflicting manufacturer dimple counts and unmatched test samples limit the performance claims we can make.

Performance profile

What the reviewed evidence tells us.

A current product, with a specification conflict

The UK V9948501 product is part of the 2025 Distance+ range. TaylorMade’s UK and US pages disagree on its dimple count, despite sharing the product code. We retain the named aerodynamic design and omit a definitive count; repeated retailer descriptions cannot settle that conflict.

Distance claims and short-game checks

The REACT core and soft-feel language describe TaylorMade’s design aims. The older robot sample has not been securely matched to current UK stock, so its distance and wedge-spin results are not reproduced as current ratings. Compare the feel and release of your own chips before choosing on distance alone.
