The biggest difference is shot shaping. Testers say the TaylorMade P∙790 flies straight and is harder to work, while the Titleist T200 makes it easy to shape draws and fades and to hit high or low shots. The two also suit different players. The P∙790 is aimed at mid-to-high handicappers and at skilled players who have lost swing speed. The T200 suits golfers from about scratch to a 12 handicap.
Both are hollow-body irons that launch high and feel solid. Reviews call the P∙790 very long, but testers disagree on how much distance the T200 gains. The 7-irons have almost the same specs: 30.5° vs 31° loft, 62.5° vs 63° lie, and both are 37 inches long.
Choose the P∙790 Irons if…
you're a mid-to-high handicapper, or a skilled player who has lost some swing speed, and you want easy launch and lots of distance without a bulky head, and you don't need to shape shots.
Choose the T200 Irons if…
you're a low-to-mid handicapper (about scratch to 12) who wants a players'-style look and the ability to shape shots both ways, or you're building a combo set with T100s.
Common questions
- Which is better for shaping shots?
- The T200. Testers found it easy to shape both ways and to flight high and low shots, while the P∙790 flies straight and is harder to shape.
- Which is longer?
- Reviews describe the P∙790 as very long for an iron of its size. Testers disagree on the T200: some saw a clear carry gain over the T100, others only a small one.
- Is the 2021 model a big change from the previous version?
- For the P∙790, reviews call it a modest upgrade that differs little from the 2019 model beyond the finish. For the T200, testers say it looks much cleaner than the first generation, with a narrower topline, a shorter blade and less offset.
