TaylorMade R9 Forged Iron Set

About

TaylorMade R9 Forged Iron Set The R9 Forged is the one people mix up. TaylorMade sold four different irons under the R9 name and they play nothing alike: the cast R9 (2009), the compact R9 TP (2009), this R9 Forged (2010) and a limited R9 Forged TP. Despite the name, the R9 Forged isn't a full forging — it's a cast steel body with a soft forged S25C face and an undercut cavity behind it, so you get forged feel off the face with more help on mishits than a true players iron. Key specs: Cast steel body with a soft forged S25C face Two-piece construction in the 3–7 irons, one-piece forged in the 8–PW Undercut cavity for forgiveness Released May 2010, first shown at the Tokyo Golf Show Player type: Mid to low handicap Not the same club as the cast R9 (2009) or the R9 TP
