In our forums, our members have been giving their thoughts on Titleist’s T100 irons after WRXer ‘tw7878’ requested some long term reviews. ‘Tw7878’ likes the look of the clubs a lot and is considering taking a punt on the irons, and our members have been sharing their thoughts in our forum.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

steventoo: “I have had my T100’s since early January, as an upgrade from my 2006 model Titleist 755 irons. Both irons have stiff flex KBS Tour shafts, and both sets are 3 iron through to pitching wedge. 8 iron swing speed is around 90mph, give or take one or two miles per hour. Both sets are standard lie and half an inch long. My handicap is 11, but was as low as 6 a few years ago pre-shoulder reconstruction and when I was playing a lot more. My iron striking is decent, but not amazing. I like them a lot. They are very different to the 755’s – much less offset and much thinner soles and top lines, but they are much easier to hit. They might be too easy to get in the air – I haven’t figured out a surefire way to keep them as low as I’d like to when I need to. But they’re easy to get up in the air and move around when I want to, and I love the way they interact with the turf, and I like the traditional lofts. I’m not tempted by the S model and discounted a bunch of other irons because of the strong lofts. I don’t have much to compare them to. I wasn’t looking for new irons and bought them because I got a good deal rather than going through an extensive testing process, but in the past year I’ve hit a bunch of balls with 620MB’s, Z785’s, MP20MMC’s, and i210’s. The Z785’s were probably my pick of the others though they’re a bit stronger than I like. I’m sure I’d be pretty happy with just about any similar iron out there, but I can’t fault the T100’s. I was looking forward to spending more time playing golf this year, but it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen so a real long term review might have to wait a while longer :|”
NateDog07v: “Not much not to like… amazing looks, great feel/sound, very little offset, perfect turf interaction (unlike the t200s which felt like trying to use a frying pan to take a divot with longer irons)… basically traditional Titleist CBs with some tech assistance. Moved to these from 714 AP2s… touch longer, about the same forgiveness. Only minor gripe would be high on the face, esp towards the toe, can be fairly dead, but if you’re playing these irons you should own that miss. Epic feedback with these can definitely tell exactly where you’re slight misses are, but you still get a very large % of the performance out of it on a slight miss compared to dead flush. Great MB/CB alternative or to mix in with those.”
juststeve: “I’ve had the T100s in my bag since last year, Probably 15 rounds or so plus a good bit of time on the practice ground. They replaced a set of 714 AP2s and a set-id Titleist 681s. I hit the AP2s a little better, but the 681s hung around because I didn’t like looking at the AP2s. I’m now committed to the T100s. First, they look great. Second, they are very forgiving, particularly on my most common miss, a groove or two thin. Third, I can do anything with them that I could do with either of the other sets, and they are about half a club longer, I highly recommend them.”

Welcome to the family: TaylorMade launches PUDI and PDHY utility irons

Published

May 3, 2024

GolfWRX Staff

TaylorMade is continuing its UDI/DHY series with the successor to the Stealth UDI and DHY utility irons: PUDI and PDHY (which the company styles as P·UDI and P·DHY). TaylorMade is folding the designs in with its P Series of irons.

TaylorMade outlined the process of developing its new utilities this way. The company started with the data on utility iron usage. Not surprisingly, better players — i.e. those who generate more clubhead speed and strike the ball more precisely — were found to gravitate toward the UDI model. DHY usage, however, covered a wider swath than the company might have expected with six-to-18 handicappers found to be bagging the club.

TaylorMade also found that the majority of golfers playing UDI or DHY utilities were playing P Series irons at the top of their iron configurations.

Can you see where this is going?

Matt Bovee, Director of Product Creation, Iron and Wedge at TaylorMade: “As we look to the future, beyond the tech and the design language, we are excited about repositioning our utility irons into the P·Series family. P·UDI is an easy pair for players that currently play P·Series product and P·DHY is an extremely forgiving option for players of all skill levels. It is a natural fit to give these players the performance in this category that they are looking for.”

TaylorMade PUDI

TaylorMade PUDI technology cutaway (via TaylorMade)

Crafted with tour player input, TaylorMade sought to develop a confidence-inspiring utility iron that blends with the rest of the P Series irons. Also of note: Interestingly, the PUDI has a more compact head than the P790.

In comparison to past UDI products, the PUDI has a more traditional iron shape, slimmer toplines, and less offset with a little of the backbar visible at address.

TaylorMade PDHY

TaylorMade PDHY tech cutaway (via TaylorMade).

Larger in profile than the PUDI, the PDHY seeks to position center of gravity (CG) lower in the club for ease of launch. The toe height is larger and the profile is larger at address — roughly five millimeters longer than PUDI — the sole of the club is wider for improved forgiveness.

Club Junkie’s take

Golfers who feel like they are missing something at the top of the bag could find the PUDI or PDHY a great option. The look of the PUDI should fit the most discerning eye with a more compact look, less offset, and a thinner topline. If you want a little more confidence looking down the P-DHY will be slightly larger while still being a good-looking utility iron.

For being small packages both models pack a pretty good punch with fast ball speeds, even off-center. The feel is soft and you get a solid feel of the ball compressing off the face when you strike it well. Your ears are greeted with a nice heavy thud as the ball and club come together. The PDHY will launch a little higher for players who need it while the PUDI offers a more penetrating ball flight. Both utility irons could be the cure for an open spot in the top end of the bag.

PUDI, PDHY, or Rescue?

TaylorMade offers the following notes to assist golfers in filling out their bags:

PUDI has mid-CG right behind the center face to create a more penetrating mid-to-low ball flight
PDHY has a lower center of gravity to produce an easier-to-launch mid-to-high ball flight.
Both PUDI and PDHY are lower-flying than the company’s hybrid/Rescue clubs.
PUDI is more forgiving than P790.
PDHY is the most forgiving iron in the entire TaylorMade iron family
