Right, two ions from Taylor made. One is the brand new release, the stealthy, other is the king of the hollow body ions, the P790. There is 40 pound per club difference in terms of cost and what I want to know is can you justify that extra money for the P790? Or should you go for this brand new and megaly impressive in my opinion, stealth iron from Taylor made? Right, it's okay. So this is what we're going to do in what I reckon is going to be a very short and brief video because for me in a head to head you want to find out some very simple and straightforward answers. Well I do anyway at least and that is quite simply does one perform better than the other and if it does how did it perform better and what separates these two clubs because 40 quid per club per difference I want to see quite a lot of advantages from the P790 over the stealth to justify that difference and that's what we're going to identify or not in today's video. Now in a heads head video obviously you've got to compare one of the things you'll compare is the way they look and from a shelf appeal perspective I'm going to show some images on screen now and you give me your opinion because that's the only one that really matters but my opinion would be a simple one. The stealth have done a massive job or Taylor made rather than a massive job in terms of improving a super game improvement category type iron and making it strip back very appealing easy on the eye but the P790 is without doubt in my mind one of the best looking iron on the market it's evolved over the four years since its first inception and I think like I said really good looking iron so for me if it was shelf appeal in itself I would definitely choose the P790 that said I think the stealth is a really really good looking iron for the category that it's in. The second thing for me that you're going to look at is the way these two look at address because again in previous years if we looked at the SIM product if you'd compared the SIM to a P790 that have been huge differences in terms of this top line but now not so much yet again they've done a huge job in thin enough this top line the overall profile of the stealth has been reduced massively and now the difference between the two well it's very minimal and it quite surprised me just how close the are in terms of looks and address yes the stealth is bigger overall in its profile which much closer now to the P790 so that super game improvement iron compared to maybe what you classed the game improvement iron or a player's distance iron that gap is closed so again brings them much closer together when you're considering which one you might buy and next thing you might want to consider is the loft or the strength of loft of these iron because again it's a bit of a separator the two seven iron's 30.5 the P790 28 degrees in terms of the stealth so again that stealth that super game improvement height loft 30.5 they now call it a player's distance iron two and a half degrees separate them in loft so expecting to see difference in terms of performance the other issue perhaps with the stealth is the gap in of the loft tends to be a little bit broader and wider than you'd perhaps once in an ideal scenario but what happens in terms of performance will this stealth at 28 degrees or two and a half degrees stronger will it travel so much further than that of the P790 but more importantly how will it get there in terms of its launch angle and its descent angle and what impact does it have on spin the next thing for me is forgiveness and if I was getting custom fit for an iron or a driver any clubs right now the one thing I'd be interested in is my impact location where am I hitting out on that club face and how does performance deteriorate when I'm not finding the center so in this video again we'll be looking at impact location on both irons where did I strike the ball in terms of the club face and can we see any massive fall offs when we're not quite getting it out of the center and that's a big comparison between the two irons now whilst loft is a big issue for many many people the things that you need to be looking at more closely is what I've just mentioned launch angle descent angle and that spin number and that's the combination of all three of those things that make a huge difference to how your ball is getting from A to B and how much loft is impacting on performance and again we'll look at that closely and how much that two and a half degrees difference in terms of strength of loft of the seven iron makes in overall performance now one final factor the amite wish look at is sound and feel because let's not forget the P790 is a forged hollow body iron so there could be a deciding factor there for many of you and one of the reasons that sir there's a cost difference will certainly be the fact that this is a forged iron how much difference is the in terms of sound and feel and is that a big separator right okay so that is balls hit drive all data collected and we'll start off very very simply with dispersion chart everybody likes to see where these things go in terms of dispersion start off with the seven iron what you can see there is both a very very tightly grouped nothing to separate them you can already see is a bit of a yardage distance difference which will get to very very shortly you pop into the five iron of the two clubs as well maybe the P790 was a little bit loose but I would suggest again that's down to my swing rather than the performance of the club but certainly in left to right dispersion very very similar we'll look at front of back dispersions when we get into the full numbers but I'm going to put those numbers in front of you now I'll put the averages for now and I'll put all the data at the end for those you want to break it down shot by shot but averages alone have a look at these and tell me what you think in terms of these differences now my opinion is quite simple the only thing that separates these two clubs is the strength of loft if you have a look at both the seven iron and then the numbers that you see off the five iron the yardage difference the large angle differences the spin number differences the descent angle differences and the ball speed are all different for one reason and one reason only and that's because of the strength of loft or the difference in loft between the two clubs the final thing I want to show you is this because this is the key for me for average it's got average golfers who want to buy a new set of irons here's a few shots that show impact location on both irons some with the seven iron you'll see some with the five iron you'll see what it demonstrates to me is that both of these are equally as forgiving what I didn't see was any extra forgiveness in the bulkier stealth club and both clubs with off center hits as you can see with the numbers they produced performed incredibly well and that's the key and important factor for me so my overall summary is this if you really hung up on the way a club looks and away a club sounds and the way it feels then I would think you'll pay the extra 40 pound to go to the p790 but if none of those things are a major factor for you then on a performance level alone to meet the stealth does an incredibly good job and in terms of its performance into the strength of loft the only difference between the two is you'll go from sand wedge through to possibly six iron as being the longest iron and a bag if you went down the stealth route and you'll go pitch your wedge through to five iron if you went down the p790 route you will have all your yardages covered within those iron ranges of the two they just shifts slightly because of the strength of lofts it's that simple right I hope we tried to keep this one as concise as possible as ever you take your time to analyse the data that's coming at the end pick fault with it disagree with me if you wish put down the comments down below what are your thoughts on the p790 versus the stealth how do we get on thanks for watching see you soon
