I know you don't want to be bothered by how strong lofted irons are, but there is a reason (2 reasons actually) that people should be concerned about the lofts on their irons... D-Plane and club gapping. if you deliver the face perfectly square to the path every time, then that's great, but most of us don't. if you deliver the face 2 degrees open with a 34degree 7 iron vs a 27degree 7 iron, the curve on the ball will be much less and more likely to be closer to your intended target. Then there are the gapping issues. how many wedges are you going to need to buy when your pitching wedge is 38DEGREEES!!! that's a 22 degree difference to my 60degree wedge or like having to have another 4 or 5 wedges in the bag to get the gapping right. The 5 iron in that set is basically a traditional 3 iron at 20 degrees. so you've only really got room for a 3 wood and driver at the top of the bag where people need the most help and should really be looking at having a 3 wood, 5 wood and then a 7 wood / 3 or 4 hybrid in that sort of 24 -13 degree range.

I play off 8 and I love these. Had them for 2 months golf is easy now;)

Lofts: my t400 43 wedge is my pw, my t400 pw is my 9 iron in my old set. So who cares about what loft irons have? It’s how long, high and well you hit them that counts…

I’m so glad you did this review with little to no background information. It allowed you to provide feedback based on “results”....nothing preconceived.

We had a Titleist fitting day at my club. My older clubs were not getting the distance I wanted from my play, (74 years old, 6'2" at 240 lbs., I carry a 17 hcp.) I tried the T series of clubs and found the T400 was my club. The only issue I have found with the first six rounds was instead of being short on nearly every approach, I am now at the back of the green looking at downhill putts! I shot an 85 yesterday and had 39 on the back nine. Five pars and a bird! I also have found that I don't play as well with sunglasses during my shots, I was alone in the cart with another pair in the threesome, so I had less distraction, and was able to take more time with lining up the shots and thinking about managing the holes. What a nice round! I felt bad for my playing buddy who was saddled with a blabbing partner that wanted to come along. This was not a course that I am familiar with nor have I played it more than twice in the last few years. It's 6, 032 from the white tees, par 71 My club is closed for over-seeding and maintenance at this time. These T400 irons (with graphite senior shafts) will change your game, long, straight, and high ball flight. I also moved the ball back in the stance a bit and it has lessened the hooking to more of a high draw! Sweetness! The feel, sound, and weight of these irons are terrific. Whatever you buy, try some of these new clubs... a big difference in play! The wedge gap is minimized by using more bump and run shots and adding a 56' wedge to the bag.

I had these clubs in my hands a few weeks ago in Florida. They were in a pro shop so I couldn’t hit them, but, they looked really nice and they sure looked forgiving. I think Titleist really got it right starting with the AP series and they’ve gone even farther with this one.

Modern MOI designs and face technology improvements have made standard loft viewpoints of the past completely irrelevant. All that matters is what flight the club produces, the carry, and the spin rate. It’s all about the performance sought by each holder, loft opinions are irrelevant.

Nice review as usual.

Finally got my hands on a set of the T400s. Yes they are super lofted but ignore the numbrrs on the head and enjoy the quality of strike. Absolutely fantastic...and I'd never of know a about them without your review. Thanks

[brockallard]

Why not do a game improvement "best of" showdown between T400, G710, Hot Metal, Mavrik (and max), SIM (and max). It is the best selling category. Would love to see that on this channel

[rossturpin]

Just ordered these 5-9 iron. All because of your review. Superb review and I thank you!

[larryproffer]

Lots of fun to hit 180+ yard 7 irons. The problem is you need five wedges. PW, AW, GW, SW and LW. I have a set of Exotic EXS irons that are similarly lofted. I ended bending the AW to 49* to illuminate the GW.

[jaymenke]

Hey big man. Great video and content for being "unorganized" and last minute...
Your reviews are honest and straight forward with no BS and that is why I love watching you do product reviews..nice work!
These titleist irons you hit...considered irons for a high handicap, mid or low handicap or all?
Thanks brother!

[stevebones]

I really enjoy the blind test with no tech in your head yet. Then afterwards discuss your opinion
Thanks and Cheers

[peteriles]

Great review I’ve just picked up some TAYLORMADE M4 irons and getting 10 yards more than my ping g irons probably down to the strong lofts but very easy to play with, it looks like most game improvement irons are going this way, love your on course videos and hope your channel grows for you 🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️

I saw these in person at the New England Golf Expo a couple of weeks ago - what a beautiful looking iron! Definitely on my short list to hit. Thanks Andy - keep up the great work!

[justinstephenson]

I never really worry about the lofts because these days there is a total disconnect between the number on the bottom of the club and loft. 26 degrees is the same loft as my 5i, but the shaft length is a normal 7i shaft length. On that basis I would expect the spin rate to be 5000 rpm or thereabouts but the peak height and carry to be closer to a 6i. When you look at Andy's actual data the spin rate is higher than expected, the peak height is closer to a 7i than a 6i and the carry is between a 5i & 6i (for Andy's swing speed). Makes for an interesting set of compromises.
The only problem with the strong lofts is that for most average golfers there comes a point where they simply cannot get enough consistent launch - for me that is around 25-26 degrees even with the low CG of this type of iron. What do you carry in your bag when your longest iron is a 7i?

[adrianlovett]

I love these clubs, long powerful but good ball flight. Easy to hit and quality build good looking IMO. So worth a demo.

"I'm bothered about what this thing does in terms of performance and what it intends to do in performance" Quality statement. I've had plenty of arguments about lofts and club numbers on YouTube. Performance is all that matters. Very good review!!
P.s do you think this looks like a blend between the ap3 and u510 driving iron? Looks that way to me.

[sevesellors]

Looks a great iron, tried it recently on a fitting very impressive on feel, distance, and in my view the best looking iron in the super game improvement sector.
Expensive but the quality and technology is superb. Titleist clubs unlike their competitors don’t date as much.

[MrZola]

I'm going to get fitted for some clubs, definitely these are going to be in the mix. Thanks for the review.

[bgrritchiet]

How would you compare these irons to the PXG irons you currently game? I believe the Titleist T400’s are more expensive? Your thoughts are appreciated. I am scheduled to have a full bag fitting on June 4th with Club Champion. I look forward to trying these irons a long with several other brands.
