    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.

      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

      I totally agree with your comments. I like the Titleist better, but based upon the shiny chrome, I’d probably buy the P790.😢

      Yeah, I don’t like the look either. But, a similar finish on my APs is extremely durable. Holds up well to bag chatter, dings and sand abrasion. Looks great after 7 yrs.

    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.

  • @trxe420

    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.

  • @alcleverdon1414
    @alcleverdon1414 Год назад +6

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    • @lazyaznmofo17
      @lazyaznmofo17 Год назад

      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

    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.

    @RunFreeRyan Год назад +1

    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!

    @motodiaries8204 Год назад

    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.

    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" 😂

    On your chart you show old T 200. For prices you have steel vs graphite 😅

    Lofts are not identical through the two sets. So fitting on 7 iron doesn’t work

    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

    Looking down on the 790's is awful. Like hitting a ball with a shovel!

    Shelf = p790, looking down = t200, so t200
