Looking for Reviews on TaylorMade Tour Preferred Irons

Hey everyone,

I’ve been considering upgrading my golf clubs, and I keep hearing great things about the TaylorMade Tour Preferred Irons. I’m curious if anyone here has actually used them and can share their experiences.

Key Features I’m Interested In:

  • Feel and Feedback: How do these irons feel during swings? Are they good for feedback on your shots?
  • Forgiveness: For someone at my skill level, which is intermediate, how forgiving are these clubs?
  • Distance and Accuracy: Do they perform well in terms of distance and accuracy compared to other brands? Any specific comparisons would be helpful.
  • Aesthetics: What does everyone think about their look? How do they stand up against other models in terms of visual appeal?

Any Recommendations?

If you’ve used them, I’d love to hear your thoughts on whether they helped improve your game or if you have other irons to recommend. Also, where’s the best place to purchase them? Any tips on places with good deals or discounts?

Looking forward to your insights!

Cheers,
Kevin

I’ve been using the TaylorMade Tour Preferred Irons for a few months now, and I must say, their forgiveness is impressive! Even on off-center hits, I get a decent distance.

3

That’s great to hear! I’ve been skeptical about forgiveness in performance irons. Can you elaborate on how they perform with different lies?

I totally agree with you, davisjessica! The distance is fantastic. I find that I can hit my 7 iron almost as far as my old 6 iron! It really helps with my scoring.

I’ve been using these irons for about a year, and I’m impressed by the control. Hitting greens consistently has become much easier for me. Anyone else feel the same?

6

I definitely feel the control too! I think it’s a combination of the weight distribution and the shaft. What’s your setup like?

I love how you can work the ball with these clubs. They have a nice feedback that I didn’t experience with some prior models. They definitely contribute to a more confident game.

Do any of you feel they have a learning curve? I struggled a bit at first, but practice paid off. Now, I can’t imagine playing without them!

Absolutely! I felt a bit overwhelmed transitioning, but consistent practice helped me adjust. What tips do you have for improving with these irons?

10

I’ve found that focusing on my grip and stance made a big difference. Also, spending time on the range with them has definitely helped my comfort level.

11

I’m curious if anyone has had a downside? A buddy of mine said they might not be great for high handicappers. Thoughts?

12

I can see that point; their performance may not suit everyone. But if you can invest time to practice, they can elevate your game considerably! A little effort goes a long way.

I’ve been using the TaylorMade Tour Preferred Irons for about a year now, and I love the blend of feel and control they provide. Compared to the Callaway Apex, they feel more solid on contact for me.

14

That’s great to hear, David! I’ve always been curious about how they hold up against the Mizuno JPX series, which are known for their soft feel.

15

In my experience, the TaylorMade irons provide a bit more workability compared to the Ping i210s. The overall design seems more suited to players who want to shape their shots.

16

Interesting point! I wonder if the design differences between them and the Titleist 620s contribute to that feel.

17

I agree with Margaret! The subtle design tweaks do affect the performance. The Tour Preferred’s agility really stands out. Plus, they have a great classic look that many players love.

I’ve tested them alongside the Srixon ZX7 irons, and while both have distinct feels, the TaylorMade feels more forgiving. Perfect for off-center hits!

19

Sounds like the Tour Preferred line may be more forgiving than expected. Do you think they suit higher handicappers or are they strictly for lower handicap players?

That’s an interesting question, Cynthia! I think they could work for a wide range of skill levels, especially if someone is willing to put in the time to improve their game.
