GolfWRX Spotted: New TaylorMade “P7MB” and “P7MC” irons (Updated)
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.
More of MacIntyre’s bag with venerable Chris Trott from TaylorMade Europe’s Twitter.
7/22 6:00 PM EST: Rasmus Hojgaard was spotted with a new cavity back iron at the European Tour’s Betfred Masters. TaylorMade had no comment on the new irons.

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.

Inside Collin Morikawa’s recent golf ball, driver, 3-wood, and “Proto” iron changes
As you probably know by now, Collin Morikawa switched putters after the first round of The Masters, and he ultimately went on to finish T3.
The putter was far from the only change he made last week, however, and his bag is continuing to change this week at the 2024 RBC Heritage.
On the range of The Masters, Morikawa worked closely with Adrian Reitveld, TaylorMade’s Senior Manager of Tour at TaylorMade, to find the perfect driver and 3-wood setups.
Morikawa started off 2024 by switching into TaylorMade’s Qi10 Max driver, but since went back to his faithful TaylorMade SIM – yes, the original SIM from 2020. Somehow, some way, it seems Morikawa always ends up back in that driver, which he used to win the 2020 PGA Championship, and the 2021 Open Championship.
At The Masters, however, Rietveld said the duo found the driver head that allowed “zero compromise” on Morikawa’s preferred fade flight and spin. To match his preferences, they landed on a TaylorMade Qi10 LS 9-degree head, and the lie angle is a touch flatter than his former SIM.
“It’s faster than his gamer, and I think what we found is it fits his desired shot shape, with zero compromise” Rietveld told GolfWRX.com on Wednesday at the RBC Heritage.
Then, to replace his former SIM rocket 3-wood, Morikawa decided to switch into the TaylorMade Qi10 core model 13.5-degree rocket head, with an adjustable hosel.
“He likes the spin characteristics of that head,” Rietveld said. “Now he’s interesting because with Collin, you can turn up at a tournament, and you look at his 3-wood, and he’s changed the setting. One day there’s more loft on it, one day there’s less loft on it. He’s that type of guy. He’s not scared to use the adjustability of the club.
“And I think he felt our titanium head didn’t spin as low as his original SIM. So we did some work with the other head, just because he liked the feel of it. It was a little high launching, so we fit him into something with less loft. It’s a naughty little piece of equipment.”
In addition to the driver and fairway wood changes, Morikawa also debuted his new “MySymbol” jersey No. 5 TP5x golf ball at The Masters. Morikawa’s choice of symbols is likely tied to his love of the Los Angeles Dodgers baseball team.
Not enough changes for you? There’s one more.
On Wednesday at the 2024 RBC Heritage, Morikawa was spotted with a new TaylorMade “Proto” 4-iron in the bag. If you recall, it’s the same model that Rory McIlroy debuted at the 2024 Valero Texas Open.
According to Morikawa, the new Proto 4-iron will replace his old P-770 hollow-bodied 4-iron.
“I used to hit my P-770 on a string, but sometimes the distance would be a little unpredictable,” Morikawa told GolfWRX.com. “This one launches a touch higher, and I feel I can predict the distance better. I know Rory replaced his P-760 with it. I’m liking it so far.”

Who forged these for TM, Endo?, or some forging house in China. Why wont companies tell us who forges their irons?. ( Except Mizuno).

Those P7MC’s look like TM’s version of the Srixon Z745’s, IMO. Imitation is the highest form of flattery.

Not sure if it’s the lighting or what but that angular section on the bottom coming from the toe back to the middle makes me think of something from Srixon land….which is not a bad thing at all.
