Our Verdict

The TaylorMade P790 irons have long been known for combining a beautiful forged look with explosive power. The 2021 update takes it a step further by introducing SpeedFoam Air, which is noticeably lighter and more responsive than the previous version. This makes the clubhead even more refined and helps reposition weight lower in the head for higher launch.

The feel at impact is buttery smooth, thanks to the forged carbon steel build. However, it still produces excellent feedback without harsh vibrations. The added flexibility in the face means that even slightly mishit shots still carry well and remain accurate—especially helpful when you're not striking it perfectly every time.

Another major plus is the increased sweet spot. You’ll notice this most when you catch one low on the face—the ball still gets up and carries strong. This inspires confidence, especially on longer irons where forgiveness can be rare in player-style heads.

Despite all this technology, the set still retains a sleek, minimalist look that appeals to traditionalists. While it’s not a pure blade, it still fits the eye beautifully at address, especially for those upgrading from a bulkier game-improvement set.

Overall, the P790s deliver a perfect mix of speed, control and feel—making them an excellent long-term choice for players looking to grow into their irons rather than outgrow them too quickly. Whether you're shaping shots or chasing extra yards, this set delivers with style and precision.
