TaylorMade launches P-760 irons: In-hand photos, tech info and comparison pics
That was quick. On Monday, TaylorMade officially launched the P760 irons. We now have a bit more information, in addition to what we already know below.
According to TaylorMade, the short irons (8-PW, AW) are forged from a single piece of 1025CS, while the long irons are forged from 1025CS with a hollow-body construction — they have SUS630 faces, and are injected with SpeedFoam as highlighted below. Throughout the set, there’s a progressive design in terms of head size, offset, lofts, and how large the “hollow” portion is in the heads, as you can see below.
TaylorMade’s P760 irons will be available for $1400 (8 piece set; 3-PW) with True Temper Dynamic Gold 120, S300 or X100 shafts and Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 grips starting on November 2.
— original story —
TaylorMade unveiled its new P-760 irons during testing sessions on Wednesday night with Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm and Jason Day via Instagram Live. According to Tomo Bystedt, it’s a progressive set that features a one-piece cavity from PW-8 iron, then a Speed Foam-filled design from the 7-3 irons. Size-wise, the irons essentially exist between the P-750 and P-770 irons released in 2017.
On the Instagram Live feed, Jason Day, who plays the P-750s currently, expressed concern about the leading edge design, and he pointed out the toplines were a bit thicker than his P-750s, and there was more offset, too.
Now — via GolfWRX Member taylorx300 — we have in-hand photos of the irons. In this thread, he unveiled comparison photos between the P-770 and the new P-760. In this thread, he shows in-hand photos of the PW, 8 and 3 irons from the new P-760 set.
Here are the photos from taylorx300 below.

Ben Griffin might be a little too young to remember some of the iconic Maxfli golf balls that won on tour, but that isn’t stopping him from putting the newest Tour X ball from the brand in play. Today, Maxfli and Griffin announced an exclusive partnership that will see the PGA Tour player using the company’s four-piece golf ball.
While Griffin might be the first PGA Tour player to put a new Maxfli golf ball in play, he isn’t the first profesional golfer to do so. Lexi Thompson has been playing the Maxfli Tour golf ball on the LPGA Tour since the beginning of the 2024.

We caught up with Ben at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson in Texas this week to ask him about the new ball switch.
“I was able to finally get my hands on some and try it and immediately I saw faster ball speed with the driver, which is always something every golfer wants to see.
“Then I had to test a lot around the greens and test irons, test spins, test everything like that. Basically, I came to the conclusion that I thought this was probably one of the best golf balls for my game.
“And so I decided to make it official and partner with them and very excited to help kind of launch this golf ball and see where it takes us.”
Griffin’s ball of choice is the Maxfli Tour X, a four-piece golf ball that is made for highly skilled players that want consistent distance off the driver and spin around the green. An updated core design helps add the ball speed that Griffin mentioned and two ionomer mantle layers separate low spin driver shots from higher spin iron and wedge shots. Maxfli uses Center Of center-of-gravity balancing to ensure each ball has consistent flight in the air and roll on the green. Like all golf balls on tour, the Tour X features a cast urethane cover for maximum performance, and it has a tetrahedron dimple pattern to enhance aerodynamics.
It is exciting to see a golf ball at a lower price point — $39.99 at Golf Galaxy — being used by a top 100 ranked player in the world like Ben Griffin, and equipment junkies will be keenly watching his performance with the new ball.

I think this is an attempt at a combo set for people that don’t have the experience to do combo set orders. I think there’s going to be some OEM soon that starts to split short an long irons off the shelf. I would. Start selling 4-7 as a “set”, and sell 8-G as the other “set”. Sure, you can get a complete set, but someone has to start making it ‘easier’ to doing an a la carte off the shelf split without having to resort to these “progressive” things that are summarily different 7 to 8 iron.
