TaylorMade P790 Review: A Modern Innovation in Premium Golf Irons

TaylorMade continues to push boundaries with one of its most revolutionary iron models to date—the TaylorMade P790. Known for producing high-quality, tour-inspired equipment, TaylorMade infused the P790 series with cutting-edge technology while preserving the classical heritage of forged irons. The result is a modern players-distance iron that blends sleek aesthetics with powerful performance, making it one of the most sought-after irons among competitive golfers and serious enthusiasts. Here is GoGolf in-depth review.

TaylorMade P790 Design: Slim, Modern, and Eye-Catching from the First Look

Review Stik Golf TaylorMade P790

The overall design of the TaylorMade P790 showcases an elegant fusion of craftsmanship and advanced engineering. At a glance, the P790 looks stylish and premium, giving off an impression of precision and performance. The back bar features a clean, masculine curvature, reflecting TaylorMade’s modern design language and technical refinements.

The P790 carries the silhouette of a traditional forged iron, yet it integrates modern lines that set it apart visually from conventional irons. The wider sole helps stabilize turf interaction, while the slightly thicker topline adds confidence at address without compromising the players-iron visual profile.

Its slim dimensions and thin face allow the iron to glide smoothly in and out of a golf bag. Even golfers with smaller frames—such as juniors or shorter players—will find the ergonomics friendly and easy to handle. The elegantly positioned screw on the front, framed within a stylishly engraved badge, reinforces the impression that this is one of TaylorMade’s most sophisticated iron designs.

It’s no surprise that many golfers are impressed before even hitting a single shot. In golf, visual confidence often matters as much as performance—and the P790 instantly checks that box.

Advanced Technologies: SpeedFoam, Inverted Cone, and 8620 Carbon Steel Construction

What truly separates the TaylorMade P790 from other irons is the bold integration of multiple high-end technologies never previously combined at this level. One of the most significant breakthroughs is the introduction of SpeedFoam Technology.

SpeedFoam is a specialized lightweight urethane foam injected into the hollow body of the iron. It provides two critical functions:

  1. Increase ball speed by enhancing face flexibility at impact
  2. Absorb vibration, delivering a softer, cleaner feel and quieter impact sound

This stands in contrast to traditional hollow irons, which often produce a harsher feel and ping-like sound.

The P790 also uses Inverted Cone Technology (ICT) on its ultra-thin 1.75 mm face, expanding the effective sweet spot so golfers maintain high ball speed even on off-center strikes. This is a major advantage for players who haven’t yet mastered center-strike precision.

For the body construction, TaylorMade uses 8620 carbon steel, a softer material compared to standard stainless steel. This enhances vibration absorption while maintaining structural stability. The pairing of 8620 steel with SpeedFoam creates a uniquely solid yet comfortable feedback profile.

Together, these technologies deliver an iron that is not only powerful, but also highly refined in feel and sound.

One of the most praised aspects of the TaylorMade P790 is its exceptional feel. When the ball meets the face, golfers experience a soft yet solid feedback—an iconic trait of forged performance irons, amplified by SpeedFoam and the carbon-steel body.

Feel and Sound at Impact: Clean, Solid Contact with a Luxuriously Quiet Tone

One of the most praised aspects of the TaylorMade P790 is its exceptional feel. When the ball meets the face, golfers experience a soft yet solid feedback—an iconic trait of forged performance irons, amplified by SpeedFoam and the carbon-steel body.

Instead of the loud “click” commonly heard in hollow-body irons, the P790 produces a deeper, quieter, more premium-sounding impact. It feels crisp, clean, and authoritative—almost as if every shot were struck from the sweet spot.

In field testing, the P790 consistently delivers 3–5 mph higher ball speed compared to the TaylorMade P770. Higher ball speed naturally translates to significantly longer carry distance, while maintaining controlled spin for optimal trajectory and stopping power on the green.

This refined feel builds confidence. For both professionals and serious amateurs, quality feedback is essential for swing evaluation. The P790’s sensory response is clear and intuitive without being harsh, something few irons manage to achieve.

True Temper Dynamic Gold 105 Shaft: Optimized Distance and Consistency

To further enhance performance, TaylorMade equipped the P790 with the True Temper Dynamic Gold 105 shaft—a lighter version of the iconic Dynamic Gold series.

The DG105 is:

  • 25 grams lighter than the standard DG
  • 15 grams lighter than the KBS Tour FLT 120 on the P770

The reduced weight helps generate higher clubhead speed without additional effort. Testing shows longer carry distances with the same swing speed, while maintaining directional stability thanks to its mid-weight, tour-inspired profile.

For golfers with moderate swing speeds, this shaft provides the perfect blend of distance and control. Paired with the P790 head, it creates a “complete package” iron that is both forgiving and explosive.

No surprise many reviewers call the P790 a true game-changer in the players-distance category.

Conclusion: TaylorMade P790 — A Premium Investment for Long, Precise, and Confident Iron Shots

Across nearly all reviews, the TaylorMade P790 scores exceptionally high in design, technology, feel, and on-course performance. With pricing around $1,300, it is clearly positioned as a premium product for golfers serious about upgrading their equipment.

But considering what you get—
✔ sleek and precision-built aesthetics
✔ SpeedFoam for power + soft feel
✔ 8620 carbon-steel body for stable, solid impact
✔ Inverted Cone Technology for faster ball speeds
✔ DG105 shaft for longer carry and improved consistency

—the P790 fully justifies its premium status.

Whether you’re a professional who needs controlled power, or a mid-handicap golfer seeking longer irons with more forgiveness and stability, the P790 remains one of the most complete and advanced irons TaylorMade has ever produced.

It is no exaggeration to call the P790 one of the finest modern innovations to come out of TaylorMade’s engineering labs.
