What type of player will benefit most from the r7 iron?
The r7 iron was created for skilled golfers who want a high-performance iron that's easier to launch high and straight while also offering excellent workability.
What fuels the r7 iron’s extraordinary distance?
A combination of three things. First is the large and thin unsupported area of the clubface that is flexible enough to deliver increased COR, which promotes increased ball speed for greater distance. Second is the next generation of TaylorMade’s Inverted Cone Technology, which increases the size of the clubface area that delivers high COR. That promotes higher ball speed when impact is made away from the center of the clubface, equaling greater average distance. Three, the shaft options – T Step 90-gram steel and RE*AXTM 65-gram graphite shafts – are both lightweight and tip-soft, promoting higher clubhead speed, a strong release and high ball flight for exceptionally long carry and distance.

What design elements does the r7 iron feature that promote accuracy?
The r7 irons are engineered with moderate offset, with the leading edge of the clubface positioned behind the front of the hosel. Offset makes it easier for most average players to square the clubface to the ball at impact, resulting in straighter shots for greater accuracy.
How workable is the r7 iron?
The r7 iron is less workable than the r7 TP iron, however players with the ability and inclination to intentionally fade or draw the ball should be able to do so with the r7 iron.
How does TaylorMade’s shock-absorption web improve the feel of the r7 iron?
The r7 iron’s shock-absorption web is made of soft aluminum, and is bonded to the cavity face with 3M™ VHB™ Tape, a double-sided, closed cell acrylic foam tape with viscoelastic properties that absorb shock and soften sound. The combination of those two elements, plus the precise manner in which the web is shaped and positioned, delivers an incredibly soft and satisfying sound and feel at impact.
What sets the TaylorMade® logo grip apart from other grips?
The TaylorMade logo grip features hundreds of extremely short slots, positioned parallel to the line of the shaft. These slots form “cells” that help the grip to conform to the shape of your hands as they hold the club. The result is increased feel, comfort and traction.
Is the r7 iron available in a women’s model?
Yes, with blue accents instead of yellow.
