Note: TaylorMade does not publish offset values for the P790 line. Stock shafts for 2021 and 2023 were also Nippon Modus 105 (with regional variants KBS Tour 105 or True Temper Dynamic Gold in some markets). Lengths are identical across all three generations.
Key Takeaways
Why specs matter – Loft, lie, and length directly affect distance gaps, ball flight, and consistency. A 1° stronger loft can add 2–3 yards, while a 0.5° lie mismatch may push the ball off line. Use this chart as your baseline before buying or bending.
How to check your set in 3 steps
-
Measure length – Lay each club on a flat surface with the sole centered. Measure from the butt end to the ground (with the club in address position). Compare to the chart. Lengths are identical across 2021–2025, so a 7-iron from any year should be 37″. If yours is off by more than 0.25″, suspect a custom cut or prior damage.
-
Verify lofts – Use a digital loft gauge or visit a clubfitter. The 2025 4-iron is 1° stronger (20°) than the 2021/2023 (21°). If you mix a 2025 4-iron with a 2021 5-iron (23.5°), the gap is only 2° instead of the typical 3° – that means you might not have a meaningful distance separation between clubs.
-
Check lie angles – The 2025 lies are 0.5° to 1° steeper than previous models. For example, the 2025 7-iron is 62.5° vs. 62° in 2021/2023. If your 2025 7-iron sits flat (toe up) compared to an older club, you’ll need to bend it upright to match.
What to do when specs don’t line up – If a single club is off by more than 0.25″ in length or 0.5° in lie, it may indicate a previous custom adjustment or damage. Take the club to a certified clubfitter for a full inspection. Steel shafts can usually be bent up to 2°, but only a fitter should attempt it. If you see cracking or rust near the hosel, do not bend – the club may need warranty replacement.
When to stop and escalate – If you notice inconsistent distance gaps (e.g., a 2025 6-iron flies the same as a 2023 5-iron) or abnormal sole wear (heel or toe scuffing), stop using that club and consult a fitter. These are signs the lie or length is incorrect for your swing, and self-adjustment could make it worse.
Common mistake to avoid – Mixing models without rechecking gapping. A 2023 PW (43.5°) with a 2021 9-iron (39.5°) creates a 4° gap – acceptable. But swapping a 2025 9-iron (39°) with a 2021 PW (44.5°) leaves a 5.5° gap, which typically produces a 20-yard distance jump. Always lay out your full set’s lofts in order, not just one club at a time.
Technology note – The 2025 P790 uses the same 4340M forged face construction as the 2021 and 2023, but with updated internal SpeedFoam Air for improved feel. The 2025 lofts were tweaked to close the gap between the 9-iron and PW slightly compared to 2021.
FAQ
Are P790 irons fully forged?
No. The face is forged from 4340M steel, while the body is cast. The combination gives a forged feel with the durability and distance of a cavity back.
What is the stock shaft for the P790?
For all three model years, the standard steel shaft is Nippon Modus 105. Regional markets may have offered KBS Tour 105 or True Temper Dynamic Gold as alternatives.
How do the lofts differ between 2021 and 2025?
The 2025 4-iron is 1° stronger (20° vs. 21°). The 9-iron went from 39.5° to 39° (0.5° change), and the PW from 44.5° to 44°. The 2023 PW is the strongest at 43.5°.
Does the P790 have adjustable hosels?
No. Loft and lie adjustments require bending at a clubfitter’s shop. The steel shank can handle up to 2° of bending if performed correctly.
Can I use this chart to order custom lengths?
Yes. These are the standard specs. A clubfitter will use these as a baseline and adjust for your wrist-to-floor measurement. Always specify the model year when ordering.
Where can I find the offset measurement?
TaylorMade does not publish offset for the P790 line. If offset matters for your fitting, measure a demo head at a golf shop or ask a certified clubmaker to check it with a gauge.
The P790 specs have remained close across three generations, but the 2025 lofts and lies are the most aggressive. Use the chart to verify your set’s gapping before hitting the course.
