Why? It’s not like it was huge before or you can see it at address. You could remove the paint fill from all but the “T” now and it would be even less although it would be for no reason.

I already said why in my previous post “less is more”. The new logo is clean and simple which I like.

I have seen and hit all the product except for the new MG 2.0 wedges (saw but didn't hit). The regular P790 aesthetics wise is pretty close, those who have them now likely wouldn't notice a massive difference. Stock shaft is the real-deal Dynamic Gold 105. The P790 Ti is interesting, it is geared at a premium price point (think Epic Forged, PXG, Epon, XXIO), it is marginally larger has a Titanium forged cup face, and two black weights in the back for stability I guess. The stock shaft is the new Nippon 950 NEO and the lofts are off of M2/M4/M6 specs (28.5* 7i). It feels a touch harder than the standard P790 on mishits but in the middle I couldn't tell the difference.

 

The most interesting thing I think is the Hi-Toe Big Foot. It literally has a Big Foot/Sasquatch foot stamped on it, it has 15* (!!!!) of bounce, a super wide sole, and 3 massive plugs taken out of the back to promote ball speed and forgiveness. It feels unreal when hit and gets the ball up even with a dead square stance and stabbing the club into the ground. Probably not the best club to try a flop shot off of hard pan but for someone who struggles out of bunkers and gnarly rough this will be a godsend.

Not sure how much smaller they could make the topline on a hollow iron. Maybe a millimeter or less but some will swear that is a game changer for them. Other than that it looks like they made the dull parts brighter and bright parts duller.

Marginally larger...strike1....harder feeling..strike 2...28.5 deg 7 iron...strike 3..

For me at least...disappointing

It's an easy fix. Hit it in the middle and bend weak. When I say marginally I literally mean marginally, like it's barely noticeable.

These might be the best looking irons out there looking at the backs. If they only made an iron like this that didn't launch miles in the air and had lofts the same as p760 I'd love to buy them. Bending weak just makes an already higher launching iron launch more so doesn't work for a lot of people.

True, but if you bend 1* weak you are basically putting them at the specs of every other GI iron out there and there would be a negligable change in ball flight, spin, and bounce.
