Update

8/1: Robert MacIntyre was spotted with (left-handed) TaylorMade P7MC irons in the bag at the WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational. This could be an indication the next generation of the “P” series will be available in left-handed if/when they come to retail.

BOOM!!!!

Rory played 18 with these yesterday and as of now the plan is to put them into play tomorrow, these irons must be something for World #1 to put them in play so quickly. More to come as we learn.

7/14 5:30 PM EST: Rory McIlroy reportedly has P7MB irons in a practice round ahead of the Memorial Tournament.

We’re used to spotting new equipment on tour. Usually, however, the “tour” is the PGA Tour…not the developmental Clutch Pro Tour.

Nevertheless, TaylorMade staffer Charley Hull was spotted with new “P7MB” irons in her bag at the Open Access Masters at Sunningdale Heath Golf Club. Rumor is she was fit into them yesterday and had them in the bag today. That is an extremely quick turn around at the tour level.

Upon initial inspection, they are most similar to the P7TW and P730 irons with a different muscle structure. And for what it may or may not be worth in terms of performance similarities, Hull won a Rose Ladies Series event two weeks ago with P730 irons in the bag.

However, the Carlsbad-based company is without comment on where these irons will fit into the P700 family of irons or if there are any plans to bring the blades to retail.

GolfWRX will continue to update this post with more information and additional sightings of the “P7MB” irons…stay tuned.

Equipment

Spotted: Nate Lashley’s Ping PLD “Wolverine” putter

Ping PLD putters have been a very common site on profesional tours. Pros seem to gravitate toward the PLD line’s custom options and precision milling. We have seen the PLD line expanded over the years, but we haven’t seen too many, if any, large mallets.

This week we spotted a PLD putter in Nate Lashley’s bag that has a similar look to the old Ping Wolverine head shape. This putter is a large mallet with the famous “claws” on the outside and oval center that housed the alignment aid.

Nick’s putter has the PLD logo on the back but also looks like it might have an insert installed on the face. It is hard to tell but at the address picture, it looks like the face is a lighter material than the rest of the putters. The putter is center-shafted and should be face-balanced with a high MOI for stability and forgiveness on mishits. The sole is completely milled and has no markings of name or technologies that might be present in the head. A single white site line is on the top of the putter for alignment.
