Strength:

The TaylorMade Tour Preferred irons are a solid choice for skilled golfers seeking precision, workability, and a classic look. If you have a lower handicap and prioritize control over forgiveness, the Tour Preferred irons could be a suitable option. As with any golf equipment, it's recommended to try the clubs or get professionally fitted to ensure they match your individual swing characteristics and preferences. by tstoto

I just recently purchased a set of 2009 TaylorMade tour preferred irons with TT dynamic gold s300 shafts. I went to try out some irons to replace my Snake Eyes forged cavity backs I have been playing with the past 5 years. I really had my mind set on either Ping s57 or Titleist ap2's but the TaylorMade's were on sale as they were last year's model, so I figured I would give them a shot. I have never been a huge fan of TaylorMade irons in the past. After a 10 minute warm-up, the testing began in the fitting room. All three irons gave nearly identical measures; launch angle being 14-15 degrees and initial ball speed of 132-135 mph for each swing with each. I was using 5-irons for comparison purposes. I was very shocked to find that the TaylorMade's were the longest of the three, but only about 3-4 yards longer than the ap2's. The Ping's brought up the rear in this catagory. Also, the TaylorMade's had the tightest shot dispersion of the three, again with the Ping's being the worst of the three (not bad by any reason, but just not as tight as the other two). The real kicker was on the mis-hit shots (about two out of ten for each club, not bad but not pure smash either), the TaylorMade's still held the line and only lost about 5 yards of distance. I have since played 2 18-hole rounds with the clubs, and the only problem I have had is adjusting to the new distances I am hitting each club, approx 6-10 yards further than my old set. I had even had the old set bent 3 degrees strong, and the new TaylorMade's are still standard loft/lie!! I would be interested in seeing how they perform with Rifle shafts, however I really don't see the need to make any changes at this time as these are vastly superior to any club I have played in the past. I really like the swingweight and the feel of these irons. I pretty much hit a very consistent 5-yard draw with these, and mis-hits are not a disaster. Now, if only I can get better at chipping..........

Customer Service

Have not had to use them, however Golf Galaxy staff was very helpful in choosing this set.

I was looking for a new and modern set of irons with a cloassical look, but some forgiveness in order to replace my old Taylormade RAC Combo Set. Tried around a lot. At the end I tried the new Tour Preferred irons and they are at its best. Great feel, the d1 balance was amazing and I had a great feel shot for shot. The only negative remark is the bit harder feel during impact than my old forged irons. But I hit the 3 iron solid from the fairway as well as the PW, they are constant and easy to hit. Also took back some strength, switched from stiff to regular but I am even a bit further (note: with the same loft degree) as with my old driver. For 300 € at ebay this was a great deal.

Started this beautiful sports 4 years ago with a set of Callaway Big Bertha irons. Then switched to the Callaway X-Tour Forged 1.5 years ago as my game improved. My handicap has gone down to around 16 to 14 but could not improve any further. Recently I decided I should change the set for one that is more current, with better technology that might help me in my game. After testing a few models - namely Ping S57, TM 2009 TP and Titleist AP2, I settled for Taylormade's Tour Preferred Irons with Project X Flighted shafts.
The club looks beautiful at every angle. During my first range session, it took me only about 5 shots to get used to each club. And at the end of it, the only thing in my mind was 'I should have switched to this much earlier!' The feel was excellent, and I might say even better then my last set of forged irons, really buttery coming off the sweet spot, probably due to the Vibration-management Cavity Badge or the undercut cavity. Sound at impact was also solid. Off-center hits were forgiving, with less loss of distance compared to my old irons. I was even striking the ball better with the long irons, with increased confidence. Shots are now more consistent, with more GIR every round.
For mid-handicappers and better, who are thinking about getting a new set of players irons, look no further. This set should not disappoint.

I've been serious about golf for 5 years. I switched over to a set of TaylorMade Tour Preferred irons after playing with Mizuno MP-33's for a couple of years. Before playing the MP-33's, I hit Callaway Big Bertha 2005 irons. Since they were game improvement irons, I was able to play the irons well in a short period of time. After playing with them for 1 year, I decided to switch over to MP-33's since the Big Bertha's lacked feel and workability. At first, the MP-33's were brutal to play with because the sweet spot is the size of a dime. However, after about a year, I learned that in order to hit blades well, you have to slow down your swing. After I figured that out, I loved playing with the MP-33's. I recently decided to buy a set of irons with a little more forgiveness but still maintain workability. Tour Preferred offered just that. Now, I'm striking the ball much better and not paying a heavy penalty for miss hits. If you are looking for a set of irons with blade like features with forgiveness of cavity back irons, I highly recommend trying out the TaylorMade Tour Preferred irons.
