The TaylorMade Qi Max irons overcome the 'rental set' stigma with incredible feel and straight-ball technology, though they face stiff internal competition from the P790.
Their scorecard
Forgiveness: 5/5 — straight distance tech works
Feel: 5/5 — echo dampening is a game changer
Distance: 5/5 — 2 clubs longer than standard
Turf interaction: 4/5 — forgiving on heavy strikes
What they rate
Superior sound and feel due to internal stability bar
Patented face technology reduces cut spin for straighter shots
Exceptional distance even on off-center strikes
What they don’t
Gapping issues in the long irons (5-iron performed similarly to 7-iron)
Strong lofts lead to low spin numbers that might affect control
