Our TaylorMade P790 irons vs. Callaway Epic irons test took place at the Golf Shack at Moor Allerton in Leeds.
We have already reviewed each model individually but wanted to put them head to head as they are both at a premium price point.
For our TaylorMade P790 irons vs. Callaway Epic irons test we used premium balls and monitored the data using a Foresight GC Quad.
TaylorMade P790 irons vs. Callaway Epic irons – The methodology
As previously stated these irons are both very premium coming in at over £1,000 for a set.
But which will make golfers feel like they are getting the most value?
We hit a number of shots with each iron and paid attention to ball speed, carry distance and dispersion.
But also looks, sound and feel as they are crucial when buying premium golf clubs.
TaylorMade P790 irons vs. Callaway Epic irons – The technology
The Callaway Epic irons involved a ‘no expense spared’ approach. Their head of R&D Alan Hocknell wanted to create a set of irons where cost was no object.
The heads feature a high-grade, lightweight and strong cast-steel construction that stiffens the body, particularly in the top line and sole, allowing the face to take on more impact load.
