Our TaylorMade M CGB irons review took place at the Golf Shack at Moor Allerton in Leeds.
We hit shots using a Foresight GC Quad launch monitor thanks to PGA professional James Whitaker.
TaylorMade M CGB irons review – First impressions
It’s immediately obvious where these irons fit in TaylorMade’s iron line-up.
In order from smallest to largest and most forgiving it goes P730, P750, P770, P790, M1, M2 and then keep going up for a while until you get to the new M CGB.
We’ve seen CGB (centre of gravity back) irons from the brand before but this is an all-new model, part of the M family.
There’s lots of visitble technology which we will talk about in a moment but they are fairly chunky with lots of offset.
There’s a nice bright chrome finish and the visible technology does give these irons a lot of shelf appeal for those looking for helpful irons.
TaylorMade M CGB irons review – The technology
We caught up with TaylorMade’s head of irons Tomo Bystedt to talk about the technology in these clubs.
He explained that there is pretty much every piece of technology that TaylorMade have used in the game-improvement irons over the last five to 10 years.
We’ve got the speed pocket, face slots, 360˚ under cut, tungsten weighting, and a fluted hosel to name just a few!
These clubs are all about maximum distance through the set. In sets like the M2 there will be maximum distance in the long irons but then progressively the faces will become a bit slower and more playable as you get into the shorter irons.
