TAYLORMADE r7 CGB Max Irons 3-PW w/Steel Shaft

New from TaylorMade are the R7 CGB Max irons. With the largest clubface of any TaylorMade Iron, these are designed to be both easy to hit and long.

The club is constructed in several pieces. The face is a thin sheet of 17-4 steel, incorporating TaylorMade’s Inverted Cone Technology, which is designed to expand the sweet spot. The frame features a hollow topline, which allows extra weight to be moved down and back. The Center of Gravity Back (thus, the CGB of the name), makes it easy to launch the ball high and long.

Tungsten weights are used to increase coefficient of restitution—the resistance of the club to twisting. And to increase distance, clubhead speed is increased by using a lightweight grip and shaft.

In all, the R7 CGB Max irons look like a remarkable collection of technologies.
