Well done Fraser. I agree that the TM P790 looks really nice — I prefer it over the Ping i530. I'm going to go to a fitter in a few weeks and test the TM P790 vs. Srixon ZXi4. Cheers!
Interesting how close the numbers were between them.
Great review, thanks Fraser! BTW, rocking the Gary Player look.
I had a Ping fitting where I hit the Blueprint T, then the Blueprint S, and finally the i530. I wanted to like the Blueprint T, even understanding that it would be shorter, but didn’t like the feel. The Blueprint S felt wonderful, easily my favorite of the 3. However, like you, I saw a real distance penalty on mishits. The i530 felt good, was more forgiving, and about 8 yards longer than the S on good strikes. For us old golfers with decent swings, the i530 seems like the best choice of the three.
I want to try the P790 too.
Am I wrong for saying the P790 has been the highest selling iron in golf for years now?
Hit the prior version of TM P790s really well in store testing however had a shocking fitter when I went to get properly fit at a TM Performance Centre. Irons I received were 2 dregrees stronger which he didn't tell me about. Also had some old cheap shafts in them which weren't stock options. Couldn't hit them at all so never buying TM clubs ever again. Very happy with my PXG 0311P irons so if you could do a review of those at some point Fraser it would be appreciated! 😀
Fraser lm really enjoying your head to head reviews, perfect choice for me 👍. I’ve had my i530s 3months & I’d like to mention how good the U Wedge is it’s excellent feel great flight very consistent with part shots (I think it’s non hot face helps) it’s not inserted on the face like the other Irons 👍, i think it’s more consistent than my s159 50deg Wedge 🤔, I’ve not heard any reviewers mention this, love your style of reviews, chatting like a mate comment’s on all shots good &bad plus we see the flight 👌, Dickey 9hcp 78year senior golfer
the spin for a 7 iron is dumbfounding even if u call this 7 and “real” 6 iron, such low spin
Ping looks like it has more offset or is it just me?
I pretty much have the same 7 iron ss currently playin the ‘21 p790 lbs tour lite. Back and shoulder issues has me thinking about a light shaft maybe graphite, any suggestions?
After much testing going to bag the new P790.
Now I know what I need, heat seekers, but not on my thin shots 👍 Really good review, as always, tend to wonder how Mizuno JPX range would stack up with these and the Elyte?
How many degres for a 7 iron???
