Would like some input on two sets of irons. Have a deal on Ping Black dot or a deal on TM MC irons. Anyone know the pro’s and con’s of these two sets? I liked the feel of both.

Wore out my AP2s in 3 years and have decided on the MC and CB’s ….making the switch to MC 5-9 and CB 3-4. These are really easy to hit well.

my local golf store had complete sets of TM MB’s and Nike VR TW’s; each iron face, 3-pw, seemed to be a duplicate with the TM head about 10% smaller; personally, i prefer the more square head of my Callaway TA X-prototypes to the MB’s or the TW’s; the first picture I saw of the MB’s reminded me of the backside design of my TA’s with the weight port of my Ping i3’s

TheTour C B Iron look great and have great feal and should be a great seller Good job taylor made

ray

Play off 4. hit the 6irons of both these today, they were beautiful, but I did prefer the blades which were surprisingly forgiving and with a very smalll dispersion, very tempted but will be around £800 at my club. Hmm, maybe not.

Glad to see TM getting back to clubs that are true players irons, the previous lot was the biggest junk and I believe caused a lot of their players to underperform. Ball controll on oversize heads are a big problem, new their players are starting to perform again.

The TM MB’s and CB’s are by far the easiest irons I have ever tested…attended a TM Demo-Day and they both swing very balanced. Prefer the CB’s due to the eye appeal standing over them, but the MB’s are equally as nice. Know a die-hard Ping iron’s user, and even they are changing over to the new TM’s after having tested both, and even Pings G15’s

they werent able to improve upon r7 tp’s and this just looks like another epic fail…
ugliest crap i have ever looked at.
people rip ping and titleist for not being innovative enough and sticking with club lines too long, if the alternative is taylor made changing everything completely every 6 months then i’d take my chances with ping or titleist.
how long until the iron heads are white…lol

i feel as though some of you are being paid by other manufacturers to bad mouth these irons. they look amazing and they have an adjustable weight which makes it so much easier to find the right feel. i have been waiting years for a set of irons like these. i guarantee with the right weight in the head, these will feel better and perform better than any iron in your bag right now. stop hating and accept this as the future of golf. more manufacturers will follow this trend in the coming years.

James

a combo set of these would be great.

PW,9,8 – MB
7,6 – MC
5,4 – CB

Adam

Are you kidding me! if you cant hit muscle backs all the way down to the 3 Iron then you dont deserve to hit any ot them… No combo sets should ever be made, either improve your game or use the clubs that suit your higher handicap play

WoodyB

13 years ago

You better tell Stewart Cink he doesn’t deserve to hit his then. I would say that he could hit his all the way down to 3 iron but chooses not to and I am pretty sure he made more money than you last year. There is no need to judge people off of their decision to play certain clubs. Some people say that hybrids are cheating but I am sure you are not one of those guys.

Really liking the MB irons. I don’t like the CB or MC. I’m just not a fan of the carbon fiber or any crap like that

I love taylormade irons, but I have to say these are pretty ugly. I’ll probably not buy them since it’s not appealing to my eyes. They could of made them more clean cut.

Ugly ugly ugly

these irons look pretty nice. they hav a nice clean look, especially the cb’s

Dan Garrison

I have the older RAC TP Musclebacks in my bag and they are one of the sweetest blades ever made. I think adding some gimmicky adjustable weight is stupid. Even though I also have an old 420cc R7 driver in my bag, too, I’ve never adjusted the weights on it from neutral, either. It’s the archer, people . . . not the arrow.

Eugene

Dunno…. IMHO TP MB Smoke are the most beautiful blades out there and one of the best performing clubs. i tried Mizuno, Titleist, Nike blades – but these are the best… The new ones didn’t impress me much

David

When is taylormade gonna release them, hopefully it’s the end of year?
Any input, let me know

Ranking;

#1 The TM forged irons, for innovation, and risk taking.
#2 Ping’s K15 line for building on a proven sales winner
#3 The Wilson’s, for nostalgia

Well they get the ugly award!

Matt Olmsted

I’m guessing the MC = Muscle Cavity as the MB = Muscle Back, makes sense to me anyways. But either way I’d hit the blade, and maybe the MC’s for long irons.

jaker

mc……multi cavity i believe. these kind of harken back to the 762 dci’s

jaker

the mc looks delicious!

So I have to give them credit for going back to forged clubs. I bought a set of TP this year, played them two or three times and sent them packing to ebay. The feel just isn’t there for me with cast irons. I have a set of Mizy’s and their forgings are unequaled.

What does the MC stand for More Cavity?

I dont know what half of you are talking about, these irons are SEXY. You can tell the CB’s will perform well by looking at them! That sweet spot is gonna be amazing! And if they give those irons a black finish: forget about it!

Neal

I’m not a big fan of muscle back irons or the MCs, but I do like the CB 2011s. They have a nice clean look to them.

James

The CB’s & the MC’s look like the Taylormade firesole irons. The MB’s look half way decent. Still the best looking TM irons in my opinion were the 2004 cb’s.

TheSpoon

14 years ago

Like the looks of the MCs from TM and yes, the weight adjustment feature will help sell these. ANY time you change the shaft, grip or length, swingweight is affected, and how many players use factory standard specs.?
One size does not fit all.

labillyboy

Wow the caddy side of these sticks are ugly! I’d rather have lead tape all over my club head. But heck, if they work I would play them. Funny how they always show you the caddy side of the club and not the player’s side… really not a fan of any kind of screw or adjustment hardware on a golf club.

BirdieBob

Adjustability!

That people is the new iron of the future and TM is starting the trend with swingweight user adjustability. Next up, face plate replacement for irons.

Next, after that will be lie, loft adjustment. I can envision a one head fits all!
Ping’s color code fitting is no longer needed.

Huge for TM…

The blades look just like the Adams MB but not as nice. The weight cartridge cheapens the look.

My three best are
Nike Black driver
Cobra S3
Cleveland CG16
As for the new TM’s, the MB look like the Ping .

My motto is ” I can hit a draw, or a fade or a hook or a slice….I just never know when !!!”

John

Best of 2011 in my opinion

Nike VR pro driver
Taylormade forged irons
Cleveland cg16 wedges

can these guys actually make anything decent anymore or are they just relying on the fact that they have sucked alot of people in to buy taylormade…..realyy please!!!! these just look like old titliests…..from 4 years ago….im glad that compnanies like adams actually care about how we play the play…..

John

For once Taylormade has made an beautiful club. I dont agree with the burner 2.0 and would love to get my hands on a set of these CB’s. I would still like a comparison between these and Mizuno though.

MyBluC4

14 years ago

Would like to see a side by side comparison between the MC forged and Ping Anser forged. There seems to be a lot of similarity in the overall design. Can’t tell what the technology differences are. Might be a good a topic for Golf To Impress.

These look so out of place next to their transformer lineup. Did the design director developed bipolar disorder?

cheymike

14 years ago

Well, at least they are TRYING to get back to some semblance of normalcy in the look of their clubs. I was afraid flashing LEDs were next…

Bill

Probably hit fine but not my taste.

Mongo

These do not have xFT technology and the weight cartridge is not interchangeable. Can only be changed at the factory. The purpose is to change the swing weight without moving the sweet spot on the face (usually done with weight cartridges in the hosel which moves the sweet spot). These clubs are going to be money my friends. The blades are damn sexy.

Hmm looks like another copy or version of PING Technology. Has this not been the philosophy of Ping for years? Good job at following the innovation leaders.

zgaugs

Are you KIDDING ME? Taylormade copying PING??!?!!! Why would Taylormade even want to copy a company like PING? That’s a joke you think Taylormade copies PING.

Buck

Love ’em. Performance has to be there though. Nice to see the old loud graphics ditched.

Marty

14 years ago

Ouch! I’m not too sure about having an adjustable weight on my blades. I thought the reason to play a blade was to have a well balanced, neutral club so it’s easier for me to hit different shots.

john

13 years ago

not weight movement. This is the new design that allows you to remove a screw and replace the groves. Just like the new wedges. Last set you’ll ever need.

john

13 years ago

not true. the grooves are not replaceable. It is a weight used to tune each clubs swing weight.

Carlos Lopez

14 years ago

those look horrible, it will be interesting how theyll perform with the xFt technology though. Well i guess its xft, if not SFAC (Super Face Angle Control) which lets you hit 300000 different shots like draw fade combo LOL

It is not adjustable
