The fifth-generation TaylorMade P790 2025 irons have arrived, and GolfStar Pro Tom Palmer has been testing them at The Belfry to see if they live up to the hype.
After two days of play, Tom found impressive distance, a more refined feel, and subtle design tweaks that make these a top choice for both low & mid-handicappers alike.
"Right out of the box, they felt dialled in powerful but controlled," Tom said. "They've definitely taken a step forward with this 2025 model."
After just two days of testing, Tom noted improved distance, a more refined feel, and tighter dispersion—all promising signs for low to mid-handicap players looking to upgrade.

Tom's Verdict
Subtle but smart updates make the 2025's a serious contender for anyone eyeing better feel and added distance this season.
Who are they for?
Whether you're a low or high handicapper, the P790 irons have something to offer. They give you the crisp, responsive feel you'd expect from a players’ iron, but with the added forgiveness of a game improvement model. You can really see why they’ve become such a hit with so many golfers.
The 2025 P·790 debuts an all-new ultra-high strength, high speed 4340M forged face material that’s 20% stronger than previous generations. The increased strength unlocks more distance while simultaneously increasing the sweet spot size by up to 24%.*
