First Look: TaylorMade PSi and PSi Tour irons
PSi irons
Let’s start with the obvious; face slots are back. TaylorMade debuted face slots in last year’s RSi 1, RSi 2 and RSi TP irons. According to TaylorMade, the new irons are designed to combine increased ball speed and distance with better looks, sound and feel than their predecessors.
To achieve this with the PSi irons, the company integrated a “Distance Feel System” (DFS), which includes a hybrar blend compression damper. The rubber/hybrar dampener is wedged between the face and cavity of each iron, and works with a multi-material cavity badge to reduce unwanted vibrations at impact.

Compared to the RSi 2 irons, the PSI irons have a more progressive design. The long irons (3-5) are about the same size as the RSi 2 irons, and have a 10-gram tungsten weight in their toe to improve forgiveness and launch conditions. The short irons (8-PW) are considerably smaller than the RSi 2 short irons, and use a two-piece construction that merges a forged hosel/club face with a 431 stainless steel backing. The set also is available with a GW and SW, which are fully forged from 1025 carbon steel.

As the irons increase in number, the blade lengths, top line thicknesses and offset gradually increase.
The PSi irons also have TaylorMade’s new Speed Pocket, which is cut closer to the face of the irons than previous models. It now cuts through the sole and into the undercut of each iron, creating a larger high-speed area on the face that adds consistency to mishits.
The faces of the irons themselves are very thin, measuring less than 2 millimeters, and they have face slots on the perimeter of the grooves on the heel and toe to further preserve ball speeds on off-center strikes.
Specs, pricing and availability

TaylorMade’s PSi irons (3-PW) will hit retail on Nov. 6 for $1,099 (steel) and $1,199 (graphite), Stock shaft options include KBS Tour C-Taper 105 (X, S and R-Flex) steel shafts or Mitsubishi Rayon Kuro Kage (80/R, 90/S or 100/X) iron graphite shafts. Additional custom shafts will be available.
See what GolfWRX are saying about the PSi irons in the forums.
TaylorMade PSi Tour irons
TaylorMade’s PSi Tour irons are fully forged from 1025 Carbon Steel and have a more compact head shape that better players prefer. Compared to the RSi TP irons, they are significantly more compact at address, more closely resembling TaylorMade’s Tour Preferred MB irons.
Unlike traditional forged blade irons, however, the PSi Forged irons use two types of milled, polymer-filled slots to give the clubs slightly more distance and forgiveness
- Speed Pockets on their soles (3-7)
- Face Slots on the club faces (3-7)
The PSi Tour irons have thinner top lines, less offset and narrower soles than the PSi irons, adding to their workability and trajectory control.
Pricing and shafts
TaylorMade’s PSi Tour irons (3-PW) will be available on Dec. 20 for $1,299, and will come with True Temper Dynamic Gold S300 shafts, as well as other custom shaft options.

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.
Joel Thelen
Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.
First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.
Mitchell Meissner
Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.

I like the ps1 tour irons but in in between them and the titleist 714 ap2 irons. Any thoughts on both of them?

Taylor Made actually had an RBZ Hockey Stick. It was white. Pretty sissy colour for a hockey stick.
And yes I spelled colour correctly!

This might be the first time I’ve liked what TM has done. I won’t be trading in my current irons, believe me, but this is actually more practical than I’ve seen out of them.
Apparently they really like the Ping i-series…

Whew December 20th release is a ways out. I’ll have gone through 3 iron sets by then.

Nothing against TM since I play the RBZ Stage 2 driver but, I plan on playing my Cleveland 588 MT’s another year. They are one of the best sets I’ve ever played. With the forged face they are smooth feeling and long when hit flush and still give good distance when hit off center. I can still hit my 7 iron 145-150 yds at 63 with them so, why spend $1200 when I can save that money to play more golf.

there are going to be a lot of people experiencing sticker shock this year in the great white north due to the CDN$ taking a dive which will most likely push people more so then they already do to pick up a set which is a year or two old rather then buy new.

They can go play that silly girly game on ice where they wear all kinds of pads and helmets and bash each other against the glass like they always do

Do the PSI Tour irons have the same lofts as the PSI’s? I would have thought not, but there isn’t a separate page for the tour irons on TM’s site.

Vibration dampening, tungsten weights….is it just me or did cobra start doing these things three sets ago?
I am not ripping on TM, and don’t blame for trying to improve.

So many choices!
But if they are as small and as good as the R7/Tour Preferred series then they should do well
LaBraeGolfer
Sep 9, 2015 at 8:46 pm
They shouldn’t sell that good, why would you pay $1300 bucks for a set of irons, when they are even better forgings available for $300 less and Miura’s just a little more (I know the general public doesn’t know of them). I wonder if Callaway’s new irons will go up in price as well. Taylormade is going to have a tough year unless they cut prices.
Ryan K
Sep 11, 2015 at 12:19 pm
TM ALWAYS cuts prices! I really don’t have anything truly negative to say about TM gear but I feel like every announcementment from them should be from a “but wait…” infomercial.

Like all the other OEMs, the best part is that I never need to buy new again because they say this every year “According to “insert OEM”, the new “insert driver/wood/hybrid/irons/wedge/putter” are designed to combine increased ball speed and distance with better looks, sound and feel than their predecessors.” – so why would I ever buy outdated technology as next year will always be better. I’d rather buy used knowing it is outdated, but cheaper rather new which is going outdated before it is released as they always have years already in the pipeline, ready to go.

$1100/1300 for a set of irons!! ridiculous ! Recently bought a set of Adams XTD tour irons for $200. kBS tour stiff shafts, Iomic grips, slots in sole plus great feel! Like the man said on the commercial, “yeah, what else do I need!”
