If the P790 is fitted with a lighter shaft and the P770 with a heavier one, you are not comparing the heads alone.<\/p>\n\n<p>Wherever possible, test equivalent set-ups or, at the very least, make a note of which shaft is fitted to each iron. If both the head and shaft change at the same time, interpret the results as a comparison of <strong>complete set-ups<\/strong>, rather than an isolated P770-versus-P790 head test.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-44fd233 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"44fd233\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Loft and Distance: The Mistake of Looking Only at the Metres<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d906621 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d906621\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>If the P790 flies further than the P770 with your swing, the first question to ask is <strong>how much of that difference comes from loft and club length<\/strong>, and how much comes from the construction.<\/p>\n\n<p>There is a second question that matters even more on the course: <strong>does the ball stop where it needs to?<\/strong> An iron that gains distance but arrives with a descent angle that is too shallow or with too little spin can make approach shots more difficult, even if the carry looks impressive on the practice ground.<\/p>\n\n<p>Always compare the <strong>entire ball-flight window<\/strong> \u2014 peak height, descent angle and spin \u2014 alongside carry.

Any premium iron can produce excellent results from a centred strike; the difference shows up on <strong>heel strikes, toe strikes or contact slightly low on the face<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>The useful question in a fitting is not which club produces the best shot, but which one <strong>loses less performance on your typical misses<\/strong>. If your strike pattern is spread across the face, the extra forgiveness of the P790 may help retain carry and keep dispersion under better control. If your strike pattern is tighter, that extra margin may matter less and the feedback from the P770 may become more important.<\/p>\n\n<p>On the launch monitor, pay particular attention to two figures: <strong>how much ball speed each iron retains when you miss the centre, and how much carry drops<\/strong> compared with your better strikes. That is where a difference can emerge that you may then notice on the course.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-132db50 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"132db50\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Feel: \u201cForged\u201d Does Not Automatically Mean Better Feel<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1dd3e99 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1dd3e99\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Both models use advanced constructions, and the final feel depends on much more than the word <strong>\u201cforged\u201d<\/strong>: head design, internal materials, face construction, sound and the overall set-up.<\/p>\n\n<p>Do not buy based solely on what is stamped on the clubhead. Hit several balls with each model and pay attention to <strong>what feedback you receive on both good and poor strikes<\/strong>. Some players want to feel clearly where they missed the face; others prefer a more consistent sensation.<\/p>\n\n<p>It is a perfectly valid factor to consider, but it should come after checking that <strong>the numbers also work for your game<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-291a54b elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"291a54b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Does a Combo Set Make Sense?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d997ca elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2d997ca\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Yes. For some players, it can be a particularly effective set-up: <strong>P790 in the long irons<\/strong>, where the extra help may be more useful, and <strong>P770 in the shorter end of the set<\/strong>, where control becomes more important.<\/p>\n\n<p>The key is making sure the gapping works at the transition point. If the crossover clubs from each model have lofts or carry distances that are too similar, you may end up with two irons covering virtually the same distance. If the gap is too large, you will create a hole in an important part of the bag.<\/p>\n\n<p>The transition point can vary from one player to another. Rather than choosing it for the sake of symmetry, it is better to place it where your control zone begins. If the 7-iron is the club from which you start attacking flags with confidence, it may make sense for the more compact model to begin there.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a9c17b8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a9c17b8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">When Neither the P770 nor P790 May Be the Right Choice<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-043467f e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"043467f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0be0f17 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0be0f17\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>P770 and P790 are aimed at different player profiles<\/strong>, but neither is necessarily the best answer for everyone.<\/p>\n\n<p>If you still lose too much carry on off-centre strikes with the P790, or you clearly need more help launching the ball, it may make more sense to test a <strong>more forgiving head<\/strong> rather than force the choice between these two models.<\/p>\n\n<p>At the other end of the spectrum, if you are looking for an even more compact head, with less assistance and a more direct response at impact, there may also be options within the players\u2019 iron category that suit you better.<\/p>\n\n<p>This comparison is useful for choosing between the P770 and P790 when both produce a workable ball-flight window. <strong>If either one \u2014 or both \u2014 forces you to compensate with your swing, the best option may lie outside this head-to-head comparison.<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a3417e1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a3417e1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">P770 or P790: Decide Based on the Shot You Want to See<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f5e7f22 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f5e7f22\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The test that settles this comparison does not need to be a long one.
