Tour The Modern Classics (Part 1): Testing the TaylorMade Tour Preferred MC 2011 irons

[atursky]

In case you missed it on the GolfWRX.com homepage today, we officially launched a new 8-episode club testing video series, called "The Modern Classics," in partnership with 2nd Swing Golf. (Here's the link to the article: https://www.golfwrx.com/703049/old-vs-new-taylormade-tour-preferred-mc-2011-irons-vs-my-modern-irons-full-launch-monitor-numbers/?utm_source=Front&utm_medium=Featured_Center_Top&utm_campaign=GolfWRX_OnSite&utm_content=main

 

For this weekly testing series, I chose 8 different golf clubs that are several years old, but are still being used on the PGA Tour. These 8 clubs are considered modern-day classics, and they're currently available for a fraction of the price that the newest clubs on the market sell for. 

 

The first clubs up in the series are the legendary TaylorMade TP MC 2011 irons, which I tested against my current gamer 4-iron. In the video, we discuss the club's technology, why it's considered a Modern Classic, and we walk through my launch monitor numbers with 2nd Swing expert fitter Cliff Walzak. 

 

Check out the video here: 

 

And below are a few in-hand photos I took of the exact club I tested at 2nd Swing in Scottsdale. Keep in mind, TaylorMade's TP MC 2011 irons currently sell for $84.99 per individual iron, and $339.99 for an entire set: https://www.2ndswing.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=taylormade+tour+preferred+2011

Solid value at 2nd swing? Never thought I would hear that. Ever.
