Which to choose

The biggest difference is in what each review set emphasises. Testers agree the P∙790 is fast off the face, with strong distance through the mid and long irons. The T200 is praised for flying higher than expected, healthy spin for a hollow iron and stopping power on greens, but testers disagree on how much distance it adds.

Both are compact hollow-body players' distance irons with a 30.5° 7-iron and a 37-inch length. The P∙790 has a 62.5° lie and the T200 has 63°. The P∙790's downsides are its premium price, small-looking long irons and a flight that's hard to keep down into wind. The T200 can leave a gap at the bottom of the set and can be built into a split set with T100, T150 or T350 irons.

Choose the P∙790 Irons if…

you want as much ball speed and distance as possible from a compact, blade-like iron, especially in the mid and long irons, and you're happy to pay a premium price for it.

Choose the T200 Irons if…

you care more about a high flight and healthy spin that stop shots on greens than about extra distance, or you want to build a split set with other Titleist T-series irons.

Common questions

Which is longer, the P∙790 or the T200?
The P∙790 reviews agree on its fast ball speed and strong distance. T200 testers called its distance strong for the category but disagreed: one said it adds only a little over traditional irons.
Which stops better on greens?
The T200 is the one praised for higher-than-expected launch, healthy spin for a hollow iron and stopping power. The P∙790's long irons also get airborne and land softly, but the reviews focus more on its distance.
Do the lofts differ?
No. Both 7-irons have 30.5° of loft and a 37-inch length, though T200 users note they may need an extra wedge at the bottom of the set.

Side by Side, Aspect by Aspect

Looks: Both Clean, the T200 Less Disputed

Several reviewers called the P∙790 the cleanest or sleekest version yet. They pointed to the matte or satin finish, understated branding, minimal offset and blade-like shape, and one felt it looks a little larger and forgiving at address. Not everyone agreed: one household member found the irons small and shiny, one tester wanted chunkier-looking long irons, and another felt it looks less refined and sleek than the P770. For the T200, reviewers praised the tour-inspired shape, shorter blade, clean topline and reduced offset. The written reviews called it possibly the best-looking players' distance iron. One tester noted the topline is thicker than a blade's, but said it wouldn't bother a player moving up from blades or cavity-back irons. The T200's looks drew fewer reservations than the P∙790's.

Feel and Sound: Split Opinions on the T200

Reviewers described the P∙790's feel as soft, pure and like a better player's iron. One noted that the short irons feel medium-soft and quiet while the long irons feel livelier and sound louder, and that mishits feel firmer but not harsh. Others called its sound punchy, crisp and solid. Reviewers credited the T200's forged face with a very good feel, and one tester called it buttery on solid contact. Its sound divided opinion: the written reviews praised it, but one video tester disliked an echoing 'ting' from the back plate, while accepting that others may like it. Both models were praised for feel, but the T200's sound split opinion more sharply than the P∙790's.

Launch and Spin: the T200 Holds Greens

Most P∙790 reviewers found the ball easy to get airborne, with high peak heights in the long and mid irons, though one article called the flight playable rather than high. Spin opinions were split. One reviewer found the mid irons hold greens and another found spin healthy and consistent. However, one video tester said the low spin, especially in the 6-iron, reduces stopping power into wind or on firm greens. T200 reviewers said it launches higher than expected, like a tour iron, with good spin for a hollow-bodied iron. One tester also found launch and spin true to loft. The T200's spin drew more consistent praise for stopping shots on greens.

Forgiveness: P∙790 Rated More Directly

Reviewers rated the P∙790's forgiveness as strong for its head size. They said off-center strikes, even well toward the toe, keep good speed and distance, and one praised the wide sole. One article placed it above the P770 but below larger cavity-back irons, and one tester said it isn't a big game-improvement iron. The written T200 reviews didn't rate forgiveness directly and suggested a T350 at the top of the set for more help. In testing videos, one tester's toe-struck 4-iron still found the fairway, and another credited the tungsten and perimeter weighting with consistent launch. Reviewers rated the P∙790's forgiveness more directly and more often.

Distance: P∙790 Faster, T200 More Measured

One article placed the P∙790 among the fastest irons in golf and said thin strikes still carry well. One video tester said it comes off the face like a rocket. Another tester found carry close to her usual figures, and a third warned that indoor mat numbers can exaggerate distance. The written T200 reviews called its distance strong, and one video tester found it powerful with good carry. Another tester said it adds only a bit more distance than traditional irons and that long irons still fly like long irons. He felt the lofts stay closer to traditional values, and some clubs came up shorter than he wanted out of the box. The P∙790's speed drew more consistent praise than the T200's distance.
