TaylorMade R9 & R9 TP irons

Golf Monthly Verdict

Clearly not as compact as the TP version, but the larger head still has a good-looking shape. The long clubs are excellent; very forgiving but with a sole design that performs from all types of lie.

An oversized head with high forgiveness levels from a classic shape. The long irons use the same theory as a thin-faced driver for added distance. Short irons offer more feel.

The TaylorMade R9 irons should suit golfers who want forgiveness in their long irons, are looking for more control in their short irons and like forgiving irons, but with a classic shape.
