TaylorMade P770 Irons – My Personal Review
Hi everyone, Tim from Swing Yard here writing to you about my favorite set of irons that I’ve been using for the last couple years. Now, to be completely honest, I’ve been a TaylorMade guy since I was younger and I haven’t strayed too far from that path. However, I’ve found that they work well for me and my real problems are outside the of equipment I use, if you know what I mean.
Let’s get into a couple of the things that I like the most about the P770s and what makes them stand out compared to some of the competitors.
Pros of the P770s
As described in my video below, the TaylorMade P770 irons have a lot to like. They are a very simple and clean design which helps provide a sense of confidence while looking down on them. The irons resemble a blade but the P770s provide additional relief for shots that aren’t struck on the center of the face. This is where they separate themselves from traditional blades. While not as forgiving as the P790s, mishits on the TaylorMade P770 don’t punish you the way a pure muscle back would. Toe and low strikes still get decent results which can be really desirable for your low to mid handicap players. I’ve demonstrated this a little bit in my video review here:
Another additional benefit of the TaylorMade P770s is the tremendous feel and sound upon contact. They are very crisp, solid, and satisfying as also demonstrated in my video above. The forged face provides ample feedback without harshness. Lower handicap players will appreciate the responsiveness, while mid-handicappers won’t be scared off.
TaylorMade P770 Loft Chart and Iron Specs:
The TaylorMade P770 irons are somewhat on the middle to aggressive end of the spectrum from a loft perspective and in my opinion (compared to the more forgiving TaylorMade P790 iron specs and lofts). Especially, the TaylorMade P770 lofts and loft angles. The iron set has a TaylorMade P770 pitching wedge loft of 46 degrees.
Other TaylorMade P770 specifications included in the table are loft, lie, offset, length, and swing weight.
