August 12, 2019 – <\/strong>Following the resounding global success of the irons that catapulted the model to among the best-selling in company history, TaylorMade Golf<\/strong>, an industry leader in product innovation, technology and performance, has announced the second generation of the P\u00b7790 irons<\/strong>. Like its P700 Series<\/strong> siblings, the P\u00b7790 irons are a meticulously crafted set combining performance, feel and aesthetics.<\/p>\n

By way of its forged face and soft, hollow body construction with SpeedFoam<\/strong> and the debut of the Thru-Slot Speed Pocket<\/strong>, speed and forgiveness were the key performance attributes that helped the first-generation P\u00b7790 rise to the upper heights of the players distance category.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

To improve on an iron as successful as the original P\u00b7790, engineers faced the challenge of taking everything learned from its design, refining and emphasising many of the unique design elements that made it so successful without drastically changing its DNA. The result is a forged iron that continues to deliver remarkable distance and playability combined with exceptional feel in a medium-compact head design with a refined topline, more compact blade length and reduced offset preferred by discerning players.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The original P\u00b7790 was \u2013 and still is – widely considered one of the highest-performing irons in the industry. The all-new 2019 P\u00b7790<\/strong> features a 7% thinner face designed to produce a faster COR<\/strong> and for the first time includes Progressive Inverted Cone Technology (PICT)<\/strong> designed to improved accuracy throughout the set, minimising the right tendency often found in the long irons. The thinner face also maintains sound and feel but enhances feedback regardless of where the ball is struck on the face.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Behind the face of the new P\u00b7790 is one of TaylorMade\u2019s most advanced technologies to date: SpeedFoam<\/strong>, a proprietary construction which serves a dual purpose of generating ball speed as well as the management of sound and feel. Injected into the clubhead, SpeedFoam<\/strong> provides the face support and damping properties that make the performance of the P\u00b7790 unlike any other iron in the TaylorMade family.<\/p>\n

Inside the P\u00b7790, a larger mass of tungsten<\/strong> \u2013 15% more than first generation P\u00b7790 \u2013 has been reshaped to deliver a deeper centre of gravity. This was accomplished through the mass savings in the thinner face as well as by removing mass in the iron frame (high toe area) and repositioning it by way of the larger, low profile tungsten design. The new tungsten design helps to lower the CG and increase the launch angle of the new 2019 model.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

The product creation team implemented some refined shaping changes to the new generation P\u00b7790 in the continued pursuit of the perfect players distance iron shape. Working from the ground up, the designers tweaked the sole radius for less propensity to dig. The long irons (6-3i) have progressively less offset and the blade length was shaved down slightly in the scoring irons (7-AW) for more compact players iron proportions. Finally, the topline shaping was refined by increasing the face height in the toe for a cleaner progression through the set. The result is a visually appealing shape proportion preferred by better players without being visually intimidating for those who appreciate the forgiving nature of the P\u00b7790 design.<\/p>\n
