The old model and the new model P790's are... in my opinion.... the best irons Taylormade has ever made.
Haven’t hit the 2019 model but just bought a set to replace my 2017 versions based on your reviews.
The sound alone is so much more appealing to me let alone the chrome finish.
Great videos.
I tried a whole lot of clubs including blades and found these the best for looks, blade feel, consistent distance, loft, spin rate and minimal distance post carry so they are now in my bag.
Thank you for this video. I just bought a p790 7i demo club with a couple of different shaft options. I’m a golfer whose been playing mp60s since 2007 and have always loved the feedback that I get from these clubs. I was however curious about these modern ‘power’ irons and so I bought a single p790. The first obvious thing to say is that the lofts are reallly strong. I’d say 4 or 5 degrees more than my mp60s. So the distance gain is not unexpected. Begs the question of why clubs still have these numbers in them. They should just display lofts like wedges do. What kind of shocked me was how off centre hits still carry a decent distance with the p790s. In forgiveness there is literally no comparison. However, I have to say that I won’t be changing clubs. I’ve become so used to the thinner top line and much lighter club head of the mp60 that I see the p790 as a hybrid. I wouldn’t call it an iron. Also, compared to mp60s, there is very little feel. The p790 is supposed to have a forged face, but I genuinely do not get any sensation from it after a pure strike whilst with the mp60 it feels.. I can only describe it as buttery.
God I love that course! Sea on the right, mountains on left, beautiful. Plus around the castle and marina area looks awesome!
P790 always looked a bit bulky in my eyes, we'll see off the new ones though!
Its even better whne the sun shines Jay
Great review! These are awesome irons. Hit the demo a bunch in golf shop. IMO they feel softer, feel better than 2017 model. They look better at the ball. Beautiful irons! Dynamic gold 105 now equipped with VSS which helps with vibration and feel, nice kick to this shaft. Taylormade nailed it again with these. Taylormade rep was in shop when I demoed, I was able to order on the spot through him. Can’t wait!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review. Just got fitted into the P790s the other day, and simply can't wait for them to arrive!
I just sold my new P770's for the P790's. I had the P790's before but saw the 770's and had to have them. I much prefer the P790's to the 770's. More forgiveness and more fun to hit.
I have always been a fan of the P790's. I have the PSI Irons currently and now that I am in the market for new Irons for next season, these now go to the top of the list. Of course I will be getting a custom fitting. These are going to be in my bag before the end of the year!
You have asked what we are looking for in an iron...I have had several different sets...Adam's tight lies, Wilson D9, KZG cavity backs, Callaway Big Bertha, Pinhawk single length and cobra S9. If I had to choose the 3 that I loved it would be cobra S9 (what I am going back to), Wilson D9 ( really great irons for the value) and Pinhawks Single length (great irons but you have to be really aware of ball flight and roll out with each iron).
Interesting. After trying many brands and models I ditched the p790 previous version which I found inconsistent for me and not that much feel for the p760s which I currently game and love and largely doing very well with. If this set is a real improvement especially on feel and consistency then I think they will go a long way to be liked by both those looking for players irons or players distance irons. Of course the titleists are now out also....
I like the new looks. I think it's slightly more streamlined. The complaints I had of the original version were it was a bit hard off of the face and some approach shots came in as low fliers. It seems like they're onto something here. Nice review mate.
Looks a really lovely setting / golf course, to review what seems to be a very special golf club. Have been to look at these club today myself, And I agree totally with you enthusiasm for this club. A really good watch this video, thanks for your efforts.
They sure do look great bud. However, I'm unable to answer some of your questions because no one has them in yet for testing. I will be going to TrusSpec Golf in Los Angeles next Friday for a followup fitting and hopefully, then I will give them a swing. Cheers....
I have the original p790s and I'm bias but I think they are the best looking clubs around. I've gained two clubs in distance a I get a beautiful high fade and I absolutely love them.
How do they compare with the PXG 0211? Are the in the same class?
Head to Head vs your PXGs!
You do love saying dry ball date 😂😂😂👍👍
Courses are so beautiful over in England.
Erm, the course is not in England !
@@lesmiserable506 King Henry VIII enacted a bill which effectively made England and Wales the same country. So, Yes it is.
@@maamold idiot
Probably a Donald Trump supporter, say no more.
Looks to be an improvement over the earlier version, but I think that the 0211 looks better.
Just grabbed some of these. Had Ap2s previously and loved them. But I am really enjoying the P790s so far.
Very good set of Irons, if you really want to get your handicap down to single figured then this is the set for you, before i bought p790 my handicap 9.6 after using for 5 months now 6.9 . the only con is price is not pretty.
Why is distance always the key focus, shouldn't dispersion be the most important figure ? and the 7 iron was nearly twice as far off line as the 5 iron !
How was it the key focus? the information was relayed on all aspects of the data?? As for dispersion that is down to the lack of ability on my part Peter
Im. Thinking of changing irons. I like my apex cf 16 apart from i find them too hot off the face for delicate shots and struggle with distance control but forgiveness is great
Currently playing Ping I210 irons looking for something similar with a little more distance and same feel age 60 so swing slowing down a bit hence a little more distance required will give them a demo 👍
I think these may fit the bill Wayne
Just bought these in 2024 lol can’t wait
All of that plus high spin numbers to hold a green
best review of the new P790. Love the golf course
Good review as always.
I used to have the p790s.
I would love to see you do a review of ORKA irons 👍
paul garnham sounds like a vegetable not a golf club
To my eye the old P790s were great looking clubs but possibly marginally too large, so if the new version is slightly smaller that would be a great change for me. The dry ball data is impressive - long AND good spin rates. TM have a winner.
You are going to have to do a comparison test: new P790 v old P790 v T200 v PXG
Yes as you pint out overall a real good product
thanks for the time to make the review, sounds sweet coming off the face
What a gorgeous course. I’m gonna demo these soon. Probably try with the 105 shafts from TT and Nippon
I really like the new P790! They look like a very, very well thought out refinement of the original concept!
Thanks for the lovely review!
I've just converted from callaway,so happy I did..
Loved the sounds of those irons at impact.
Thought you were playing PXG? Which do you like better? Great review... Love your work!
Yep still play PXG and there is a head to head on the channel Mike
IMHO, the prime requirement for a 9 iron is - more often than not - you can successfully target and hit the general area of the pin, not just hit-and-hope at the centre of the green. Some of the 9iron shots recorded in this review would have likely missed the entire green. And if your 9 iron averages 145 yards carry, how many wedges does a recreational golfer need to span 135 down to 75 yards? E.G., 135, 125, 115, 105, 90 & 75... er... 6 wedges? Most of the distance increases in these new TM clubs comes from grossly jacked-up lofts; so buyers are being sold BS distance increases. You can get more or less the same distance “increase” per club - from any set of clubs - by renumbering them: the 7 iron becomes the 9 iron, 5 becomes 7, a 3 iron becomes the 5 iron, etc. That’s basically what TM and other manufacturers are doing - leaving a big gap at the bottom end to be filled by yet more wedges. I won’t be buying.
You reference what TM are doing? Are you suggesting that a 30* 7 iron is pretty much standard in most manufacturers iron offerings?
Andy these against the wilson staff c300 forged would be great.
Cracking review...I’ve got a club to test tonight.
Look compared to last year are an improvement. Like they've been to the gym and just toned up a little. Spin numbers look good given the lofts. Have you bought a unit there at Conwy Andy, boy you're there a bit.
About a 3rd of the way through I though is he about to trade in those PXG's already ? You're obviously very impressed with them
and me!!!
I'm gonna go for it.. geese, amazing shots with those clubs
I love the looks,hit it for the first time and loved it I'm not a long hitter my 7 is about 145 (ping g)this must have been a good 10 yds. Further. Not sure what I like more i500 or p790 both lovely clubs time for a fitting.
I picked up the P790ti irons and I honestly can't believe how good they are. It's weird to see such a bladey looking iron give such forgiveness but ALSO have the attributes I want from a blade. Glad I grabbed em.
I still have the old P790 but I love the look of the new ones great video mate on course the only way to review clubs cheers Peter
Only minor tweaks but as you know the 790's are a great iron
@@TheAverageGolfer Any chance of doing a head to head on the course Andy you have played the old ones new ones that much better? I like the sound of less offset and smaller blade length.
How would you compare these to the PXG 0311 T/P Gen 3 irons?
question is.......PXG Gen 3 or Taylormade P790....putting price aside.....which ticks all the boxes more for you and why ?..cheers mate love your videos
Great job as always
A great looking club that ticks all the boxes? - it’s in the frame if in the market for new irons.
For me feel important - I do like my irons to look good also
I game original P790s and love them and find them very consistent don’t believe the scare mongers that say odd ones fly miles more? Yes I’ve had odd one jump out of the rough but that’s same for any iron.
I am with you, people who talk about flyers in the modern clubs havent even tried them !
I disagree. I had the p790s. Loved them but I was getting a few shots that came off hot (extra 10 to 15yrds) off the fairway.
This was the sole reason I changed from them
i keep trying to find a reason to not buy them .... only one i can come up with is the huge gap i will have between PW and GW if i keep my vokey
Question. As a 15-20 handicapper, I am currently using Nike Covert 2.0, would it be a smart move to switch to this club, or is this too advanced?
So are you going to change your PXG for these bad boys 👍
No Wayne but certainly one of the best I have tried for my level
Can't to see your review of the new cobra forged irons same concept of the p790, little head to head A
How would you rate P790 against T200, would like to see head to head 👍
5:31 That's a beautiful par 3. Hard as hell looking too lol.
It is and it is!
Don’t they sound brilliant.
May trade in my Epon 705’s for these.
He can't find an area to criticize them? What about the fact that every shot went left, some as much as forty yards?
I noticed that as well (you could see it without looking at readings). Honestly, I think those big side numbers are a combo of his swing and club specs. He does seem to have a bit of an over the top move on his downswing. I just demo'd these clubs last weekend and from the numbers we found this is a club you definitely should get fully fitted for and not buy as-is, off the shelf (it amazes me how many people do that or buy online using fitting numbers from a previous fitting for a completely different set). My guess is these are just demo clubs a rep sent him to try out, and may not be fitted to him. These produce faster speeds (definitely faster than my current clubs) and so the clubs need to be adjusted accordingly. For example, I am usually a regular flex, std length, +2. My fitting for these showed I needed the 105 shaft but in stiff, still +2, and although I am sticking with std length, they recommended a 1/2 shorter (I just didn't like the feel of that).
His swing has alot to do with the shots being slightly pulled. The swing is slightly over plane (over the top).
I don't know how they can call hollow body irons forged!
What about the 790Ti?
looks like nice clubs distance good but dispersion not so much!
Hes a mid handicapper, the dispersion is him not the club.
I KNOW🤷♂️ but thanks for stating the bl******* obvious
What's your handicap now??
How would you compare these to the Callaway Apex irons Andy?
Lots of similarities Mike as they would rate as one of my Top 3 irons at the moment.

Cheers Andy, great to see so much East Lothian Links memorabilia on your wall
I just checked the price here in Australia $2700😳
@Michael Thompson after this I ended up with t200,s from titlest. Hated the top line on the 790,s. And I’ve realised taylormade irons seem to go out of fashion as quick as an iPhone.
@Michael Thompson that sucks mate. We’re pretty lucky here in Australia. You’ll get to play soon I hope. Suppose the look of the p790,s just reminded me of my first irons that I bought a full set for less than $500. If I was paying a lot I wanted them to look the part.
Giving the demo 7 iron a go on Sunday Andy. Good enthusiastic video mate !
Great video but not an iron that interests me, I am sure they will be super popular though.
I agree big seller for TM
At 450 a iron it's very doubtful that this will be a big seller.... Killing the game imo with the prices the big manufacturers are coming out with
ryan denford wrong product pal, that’s the Ti you referring to 👍
Is it England? Looks like SOUTH AFRICA~^^
I bought All nes P790. Everything performed well except pitching. i mean it doesn't look it produces consistent distance.
I love these irons, I really do, but I feel like they will go to far for me...
You could have the lofts adjusted.
@@marioprice586 you are very correct lol, I didn't even think about that.... if I could have them set at true loft like a blade, I'd be chuffed but then I'd be worried about that ball flight height... he said they already go higher then before.... I'm gona have to try them.... maybe just take out 5 wood and add a wedge
You may be the first golfer who’s ever complained about too much distance😂
@@swisstrader haha yeah I know right, I 've always hit blades and I love them.... 790s just to strong for me
Far too chunky for my eye but I can see these for the mid to high handicappers
Mid handicap or high single digit, not a high handicap iron at all.
They’re not very chunky at all. I just got some and am coming from Ap2s
@@ioneil1808 they are more game-improvement irons with a player's type look... but a much thicker top line than what I'm used to. But if you like them, awesome!
