Here’s a breakdown of the key information from the provided text, focusing on Rory McIlroy’s iron changes:
* McIlroy is experimenting with cavity back irons: He’s currently testing a “Rory-specific” cavity back set being developed by TaylorMade.He wants to get used to the idea of playing cavity backs.
* Distance Issues: McIlroy noticed he was losing distance on slightly mishit shots with his current irons, especially his 5-irons. He felt they were coming up 10-15 yards short rather of the expected 5-7.
* Current Irons: He’s currently playing irons with a pre-worn leading grind similar to his P760 long irons.
* P7CB Irons: He’s been playing the TaylorMade P7CB irons (released in summer 2024). The article speculates whether the new cavity backs will replace these, and if a refresh of the P7CBs is coming soon.
* Ongoing Development: The development of the Rory-specific cavity backs has been ongoing for a few months and isn’t yet finished.
In essence, McIlroy is proactively addressing potential distance control issues by exploring a return to cavity back irons, with TaylorMade creating a set tailored to his specific needs.
