TaylorMade has announced the latest evolution of its P·700 Series with the launch of the all-new P·770, P·7MC and P·7MB irons.
The three additions (RRP £165 per club) join the P·790 design to form a family of irons built upon three main pillars – feel, craftsmanship and performance.
The P·770 irons feature a compact, tour-proven shape with a thinner top line, less offset in the long irons and a shorter blade length when compared to P·790. With its hollow body construction and forged L-Face, the 2022 P·770s offer great distance and forgiveness along with excellent feel in a smaller sized head. There’s also FLTD CG, which positions the centre of gravity (CG) lowest in the long irons and progressively shifts it higher through the set to the shorter, weaker lofted irons. The tungsten weighting scheme in the long and middle irons has also been redesigned, encouraging easier launch and playability in the long irons, while optimising trajectory and spin in the scoring clubs. SpeedFoam Air, the technology introduced in 2021 with the launch of P·790, dampens sound and strategically supports the face with a material 69% less dense than SpeedFoam, which was seen in the prior generation of P·770. In addition to the added speed made possible by the thinnest P·770 face TaylorMade has produced, the Thru-Slot Speed Pocket and Inverted Cone Technology help unlock increased ball speed across the face and forgiveness low in the face, where mis-hits are most common.
Meanwhile, the tour-inspired P·7MC features minimal offset and perimeter weighting in a classically shaped iron which aims to deliver ultimate control and precision. A narrow sole and tight leading edge ensure consistency through the turf while TaylorMade’s Compact Grain Forging process uses 2,000 tons of pressure to give engineers precise control over a tighter grain structure for the best possible feel and strength properties. Precision is boosted further through machining the face to create TaylorMade’s most aggressive score line geometry for exacting shot making.
Finally, the all-new P·7MB has been designed for the best ball strikers in the world, delivering unfiltered feedback and best-in-class feel. As a result of detailed feedback from testing with Rory McIlroy and Collin Morikawa, P·7MB features a shorter blade length, new sole geometry, and progressive offset to create a minimalist profile that’s designed to control shot shape and trajectory. A blend of traditional muscle back iron performance with a contemporary look and design, the shorter blade length of P·7MB allowed engineers to create an updated backbar so more mass is positioned directly behind the face to support the point of impact and elevate feel.
