OUR TAKE

If you like high-tech designs, the M CGB irons are definitely up your alley. This club is packed with seemingly every notable technology TaylorMade engineers could devise, which combine to produce one of the easiest-to-hit, highest-launching, highest-flying irons we’ve seen to date. Although this design appears to be aimed at higher-handicappers who need the maximum amount of help with distance, forgiveness and higher launches, there’s no reason that a wide variety of players who want to make golf as easy as possible wouldn’t take a liking to the M CGB. And for those who struggle with fat contact, this iron’s wide sole makes digging a tough task indeed.
