TaylorMade Tour Preferred MC Irons

Every golfer knows that having the right irons in the bag is a vital part of improving their game and, as a consequence, those all-important scores.

Whether it's getting that extra yardage and accuracy from the long irons on a meaty par five or having the feel needed to chip to within a couple of inches from the cup, better clubs can often mean higher levels of performance.

It proved to be a bright day for Australian golf as Bryden Macpherson ended his country's 57-year winless drought in the British Amateur Championship.

Tell you, the TaylorMade Tour Preferred MC Irons are made from 1025 carbon steel and have a slightly smaller head and less offset than the TP CB irons. And like the TP CB irons, the weight screw has been placed in a carbon composite badge to dampen the impact sound and enhance feel.

The TP MC offers a more ideal mixture of feel, workability, and forgiveness. The TP MC is, unlike the partially cast TP CB, created using an exclusive six-step forging process that is said to produce a more consistent, precise head shape and finish. But instead of a game-improving undercut, these irons simply offer perimeter weighting to assist golfers on mis-hits.

It feels pretty good to bridge the gap of 57 years. My judgement of speed was awesome but the real key was patience. As hard as it was to believe, I had complete confidence that it was going to happen for me this week.

The Tour Preferred MC Irons is available with steel shafts only, with the True Temper Dynamic Gold being the standard. Like the TP CB, the new TP MC comes topped with Tour Velvet grips. There is less offset here, which should help better players shape shots more easily, as well as a slightly-thinner sole.

Overall, the shape of the wholesale golf clubs is very clean with a thin topline, a straighter leading edge than the TP CB, and a less cambered sole. The sole is designed to be thin and clean, and interact with the turf with minimal resistance.

I love the whole atmosphere of the Amateur Championship. One of the main things is the crowds. It's amazing how much people love their golf round here. It's a credit to them
