I really wish Titleist would've gone with the brushed satin look found on the T100 and T150 vs the shinier, chromed-out look found on the T200 and T350. I got to try them both during a special event fitting and decided on the P790's. The difference in performance was fairly minimal. It all came down to my preference with the look, sound, feel.
Titleist all day
I got a combo set of the t150 and t200. But I completely agree that I wish they were satin as opposed to chrome. Fortunately, at address you can’t see the chrome as much and they do look quite similar to the t150s
Prefer the chrome look myself. Can’t please everyone I guess
I totally agree with your comments. I like the Titleist better, but based upon the shiny chrome, I’d probably buy the P790.😢
After a club fitting and testing, I purchased a set of P790's with graphite shafts, regular flex and 2 degrees flat. Paired this with Taylormade Soft Response Golf Balls for a really good match. I'm 69, and 5'6". Love the clubs. Great sound and yes, the launch angle is noticeably higher, to the point that I have actually had 6 and 7 irons back up when they hit the green. Distance is pretty good considering my age and stature, wish I had owned these back in the 90's when I was playing really good golf... Great review, excellent information. This is the type of review that should be available to purchasers all the time. don
I tested both last week in a fitting session and ordered the T200s based on looks and feel. The performance was the same for me. I spin the ball high with my irons, so we had to bend the set 2 degrees strong to find the perfect distance and flight window.
P790 for me, coming off Mizuno MP18's I gained yardage and dispersion was tighter. They do launch super high, but you can flight them down easily if you want too, at least I could.
My son just got fitted and found the Mizuno 225 superior to both with respect to dispersion , feel and sound. It was slightly shorter than the 790 but less than 5 yards with a 7 iron. It was an easy decision for him.
Just ordered a set of t200 irons. Had callaway cf16 for last 6 years. I’m 48 years old and noticed loss of height/distance recently and got it back with testing of the t200’s. Got fitted with a TT AMT red shaft which I hope will see me maintain shot height etc well into my fifties
Can’t wait to take delivery
P790s all the way! Just got fitted for them. Absolutely amazing! Love my Apex 21s but the DARKSIDE has stolen my heart! Had the 790(17)s and the (19)... then went to the 21s .. the TM P790s(23) are definitely a step up!
P790s for me, got fitted 2% flat, 105 gram shafts.
I picked these clubs specifically since I was looking for higher launch, which is something I struggle with.
Great review!
I currently play the 718-AP3 (Titleist) and took my 7 iron in to compare with the new T200. Kept the shafts the same (S300). T200 gave me 12 yards more distance with a thinner looking top line and a lighter feel.
Just have to decide if 12 yards is worth the cash. Looked at the P790 too but I prefer the thinner top line of the T200.
So the t 200 has better spin power to stop on the green quicker vs the t300? Plus would love to see Numbers on ping g430 vs t200 and t 350. Thanks
currently have the pxg 0211 xcor would you recommend an upgrade to the T200 or the T150s
Like them both. 👍🏼 Will probably stay with my PXG’s but will have to test both of these.
Love what you do.
I went p790 this year, I prefer the chunkier look at address
Do you think theres a noticeable difference in performance from the T200 2021 vs the new release?
Let's see them vs the PXG P's. Great content!!
P790 - got fitted for full set - love them
There both great irons but I like the Mizuno 225 Pro the best..for sound and price and perforance....Thanks
Seems like I am similar to the man playing Mizunos you mentioned. Last week I tested the Titleist 32 degree T150 and 30.5 degree T200 7 irons with the 94.5 gram Nippon NS Pro 950GH R flex shafts, against my solid forged blade 7 with traditional 34 degree loft (Chicago Classics, very similar to Mizuno MP33) and 87.5 gram Nippon NS Pro Zelos 8 stiff shaft. Got great results from both, 6 to 8 more carry with pretty much the same launch angle, height, spin and descent angle. Got about the same results from the T150 as the T200 but that is probably due to me rather than the club since at my skill level I cannot consistently repeat my best swing. But it seems clear Titleist has engineered these clubs so that stronger lofts do not sacrifice stopping ability. Big feature of the T200 is the rear cap is now solid and metallic, not the plastic one of the prior model that really looked and felt cheap. Will give the new 790 a test, looks like they have done some sophisticated internal engineering of each club. But the thicker topline leads me to favor the Titleist. Budget as always is a major issue. Love forged blades, have played Mizunos and my present ones for years. But I have to admit at my age, 82, getting my 7 iron carry up to 141 yds from 133 while retaining spin, height and descent angle would probably lead me to finally change.
Good review Andy. I think its perhaps not a surprise that the performance is very similar and it comes down to some personal subjective factors.
I think it all matters what brings out the most confidence when one stands over at the ball....top notch clubs
Just got fit and bought the new P790s. I tried the new T200, but for me, I was getting poorer results in terms of lower spin and lower descent angle. Both great clubs though
Very little to split them
owesome video and explanation, thanks sir
Looking at both of these plus the T350.
I’ve just gone for a club fitting and nailed it down to these two brands. Titleist in my option sound and look better but also look a little bit intimidating n terms of compact size.. At address I’m more comfortable with the p790. Both super forgiving. I’m gonna sleep on it and go for another hit with them soon before I make my final decision. Both clubs feel great and perform roughly the same. Both were tested in 7 iron. Cheers george
Great job on the video
I have been a P790 player for 4 years. I can’t belie I switched to the T200 but, I also could not be happier. I have better control and love the sound they make. I do fell like they are heavier then my P790s but not as heave as the Callaways. They are right in the middle of the two.
I think a better test might be P770 vs T200? If I recall the P770 vs P790 is literally the exact same though besides a more players looking club. The T200 looks more like a players distance, much like the P770. The P790 just looks fatter, like it's more of a game improvement iron. But, the new P770 hasn't come out yet (assuming there is a new one coming?). Anywho, love the videos! I got a Mezz putter and I'm addicted. Thanks for helping me in making that decision!
Tried both these irons during fitting session last week. Opted for neither, went instead with the Titliest T150's. Always been a Mizuno iron player up until now. T150's are beautiful irons with superb feedback.
Yes I agree the T150 could be the star of the line up
I think I would look at the P770's too
Ordered p790’s after having stealths for a year great feel and can’t wait to receive them and get on course… had fantastic custom fit session for them
I’m curious how the switch went? I’m currently using the Stealth irons, but am looking to switch to the p790s
@@toddschlicher hi mate transition has been good dispersion far narrower and now feel when I hit good or bad shot, loved the stealths but always felt they were a bit vague , 790”s feel better and I can tell where I’m going wrong , started to hit a lot more greens consistently. I play off 12 so had hoped the change would assist my game and so far so good
@@paulmiddlemass8106 Thank you for the reply. I have a fitting set up for next Saturday. We are around the same handicap so I’m hoping for similar results. Looking for more feel than I get with the Stealth irons.
I am currently gaming the TaylorMade Sim irons. Tried the Stealth, didn’t like them, the T350 felt a little harsh and I am going in next week for a PXG Gen 6 fitting. Excited to see what new irons I will end up going with, I am a 11 handicap right now.
I like both but my current bag is T200 5-PW. I do like the improved sound on the next gen T200.
Almost same bag Scott, I have 5-GW, with my 3 and 4 irons being U505. When I do replace my current T200’s it’s probably going to be the new version.
Both look good would go which one performed better for me
Went from 790’s into t200’s and couldn’t be happier.
I got fitted for new irons last week and decided to go with a split set of Titleist T-200 7i -pw and T-350 4i -6i. I also tested the P790 irons, along with Ping i525, Srixon zx5, Mizuno JPX923, and Honma TR21X. I tested all with the same shaft - LA Golf A Series - Mid - 85 Iron 3(R) Flex.
Head to head, for my swing, the Titleist numbers were far superior to the Taylormade numbers. It looked like on your video, you were hitting the shots off a raised spot on your mat, like a small tee? I tested all the irons straight from a regular mat as well as bushy turf and a small tee. I struggled to get the 790 through the turf for some reason, felt like the heel dragged through the turf and my dispersion was all over the place with the 790. The T-200 was amazing on launch and very tight dispersion. Decided to add the T-350s as my longer irons… OMG… 🚀… yes they have a stronger loft, but I was amazed that they had the same height and landing angles as the T-200s. My typical carry distance for my current six iron (916 AP1) is 165. For the the TM790, I averaged 158 carry, T-200, 172 carry, and for the T-350, 184 yards carry. I was also getting 20 feet more height with the Titleist irons over the 790 6i.
Same setup...except I did 350 I 4&5 and 200 6-pw. I am swinging the Tensei graphite shaft. +12 yards on my 7 iron
Great video!!! Which would you game if had choice personally and would either replace your Pxg gen 6?
I would lean towards the T200 but I really like the T150 as well
@@TheAverageGolferI am most interested in your thought on his PXG Gen 6 question. Would you play the Titlest over the Gen 6?
I was about ready to pull the trigger on the PXG, then both of these new clubs dropped into the market.
Try the Wilson's true forged feel and sound and look great
I'm in the iron market for this upcoming season in 24 season in Michigan. I've been heavily leaning to the P790's. I hadn't considered the T200 until this video. I'll have to hit them before making my purchase. I do prefer the look of the P790's.
I liked the look and feel better of the P-790's so I went with them just last week.
Love the look of titelist. Used to play CB690 when I was young (I'm over 70) but lost accuracy (and some power) thru the years and had to retire them 10 yrs ago. These new clubs bring back incredible nostalgia and I'm very tempted to buy blended set of 350 and 200.
What were you thinking t200 in 8 9 pw and 350s in 7 6 5 ?
@@richardlupton3676 actually only 9, P, Gap in T 200 and the rest in T350. I'm 73 but my current 31 degree 7 iron carries 150. They are cobra S3. May even skip the five. My titelist hybrid is very adjustable and reliable.
@@joesam9094 sounds like a good idea Joe I play a six hybrid most of the time myself I think all the Titleist t series look gorgeous
Still love my Pings. Don’t think I could switch:)
Titleist! Got my T200s last week! Had the previous model and the model is a big upgrade 😀
Mine are coming this week. Loved my last set but wore a hole in the 7iron
Titleist will be my next set of clubs
I would probably go for the Titleist T350 as I need a bit more behind the ball. I currently use the Callaway Big Bertha 23 irons which I love ⛳️
I would as well.
Have a look at the Paradym X's, superb feel, awesome ball flight and
very very easy to launch
Paradymx is nice but there's so much offset and such a strong loft. You have to have a great launch angle yourself to make them hold the green as they're distance irons with less spin and much further overall distance. I opted for 790s over paradym because grabbing the paradyms would make me restructure my entire bag
Just ordered T200 👍🏽
Seriously what golf brands do you wear? Always the coolest looking golf guy on yt 👌
I am most interested in the club by club cg weighting Taylormade has done, and if it is a game changer
I've tried the older versions of both, neither could make me swap my zx5's.
I saw another review and I thought the P790 looked better than T200 but now I like the Titleist better!
For me T200 has to be one of the best looking irons on the market now
For me, can't beat Taylormade💥🌞👍
Which do you prefer, the new P790s, the T200s, the Paradyms, or the Mizuno 225s?
Great question, I think it’s down to personal preferences, little on performance
I think I am leaning T200. My iron current in bag is Callaway Apex 19
I also preferred the feel and sound of the T200s. Much more appealing to me. I also prefer the slimmer look of the T200s when addressing the ball.
Great review once again , how yould you rate the t200 compared to srixion zx 4 2nd gen
It is a lot smaller, the ZX4 is closer to the T350
I play off 8 but have been really struggling with my irons went from mizuno 225 to zx 4 s for.more forgiveness but want to try the new t200 out , have the tsr2 driver and love it
T200 by a lot. Looking at a combo with the 150 possibly
Look like good clubs. Not changing my gen 6 players irons though! Never have gamed titelist irons. Past ones I’ve tried never felt soft. Love the TSR2 driver though
I’m going to look at T150/T200 combo set
Good option
Are the T200's more forgiving than the MB Blades?
Yes
Titleist ordered them already 😎
Same!
P790 for me........tried both at a recent fitting, i found the T200 to be more clicky and feel a little harder off the club face than the P790's....
Would love to see these up against the PXG Gen 6.
I combo set the t150/200.. never really liked the p790’s
Love my last gen p790’s, got them fitted with stiff modus steel shafts (4-9) and I’ve added the UDI
2 iron earlier in the year. Can’t fault them one bit, stable into wind and easy to turn over when needed. 9/10. Getting fitted is crucial!
P790 top line looks double the size of T200.
I like the satin look, so P790
i feel like they bring out new clubs far to often, i got some cobra forged last year which felt like a couple months ago. now new clubs are out 😭😭😭
These irons are on a 2 year cycle
@@TheAverageGolfer That's not as bad, but the performance increase is so small.
For me personally, i just cant justify upgrading
I'm a taylormade loyalist. But those t200s are 🔥
Try cobra forged tec or forged tec x. Both sound, feel better than both these clubs.
I play 790s so I may be a bit bias. But I think all the T series look cheap. I don’t like the backplate it doesn’t have the cleanness of the 790 or 225s.
Previous generation T200 in the thumbnail.
I do wonder where the manufacturers can go next, seems the last 3-4 years its turned to looks and very marginal gains.
Maybe a fully forged super game improver is needed, at least that way when we are 30 yards wayward to the right we can still comment " that sounded and felt nice" 😂
PXG 😊
I think the idea of a forged face on a hollow iron like these is almost more of a marketing thing than anything else. A forged club like a muscle back or blade feels forged because it's a solid mass of densely compacted soft steel. A thin flexible face, whether forged or not, will never feel like that. Putting the foams and gels inside these clubs probably does more to change the sound and "feel" of these clubs than any forging of the face.
Wilson Staff D9 Forged over both of these 🤷♂️
T 200 for me
All day!
The T200 is definitely bit better looking but I will not be buying as Wilson d9 forged is a fully forged head and just as stylish to look at sounds and feels better and costs £55 a club less
On your chart you show old T 200. For prices you have steel vs graphite 😅
P790 for me! t200 were way less forgiving!
Wish we could see ball flight and dispersion.
P790 for me
Titleist all day
P790 has better numbers
😂🤣😂It’s pretty personal. Both are great products bud
P790
Titleist T200 for me
T200 for me
My son has p790 and I went to get a set , but was asked to try the t200s , I came away with the t200s, I prefer a smaller head, apart from that there both bits of metal with a handle 😊
T200 would be my choice. 👍
Lofts are not identical through the two sets. So fitting on 7 iron doesn’t work
T200
Shiny = 1960
P790, titleist dosnt give enough specs on there irons to make an informed decision on spending that sort of $
Old t200's in the thumbnail mate
Shelf = p790, looking down = t200, so t200
T2 all the way.
Titleist will give terrible result when missed hit
Summary: P790 is a little better but no noticeable difference. You are welcome
that clicky sound of the TM is a no-go for me. Also it looks way bigger even if the measures dont show that
P790’s all the way! 🎉
T200 by far
T200 all day long Andy
Looking down on the 790's is awful. Like hitting a ball with a shovel!
Too much chrome and that plastic looking badge looks cheap on the back of Titleist. I don’t mind the thicker top line for the P790s.
T200 better build quality for me.
Definitely T200.
