The TaylorMade P790 and TaylorMade P7CB carry the same $1399 MSRP, but they are built for different golfers. The P790 is a players distance iron with a forged hollow body, a face insert and a Speed Pocket, and its 7-iron sits at 30°. The P7CB is a players cavity back, forged as a multi-material head with tungsten weighting, and its 7-iron is 34°. That 4 degree gap means the P790 should carry roughly 10 yards farther at the same swing speed, so check your wedge gapping. The P7CB stock set also runs from 3-iron to PW, while the P790 data starts at the 5-iron. Category matters too. The players distance head is generally the larger, more forgiving one, and the cavity back the more compact.
Pick the P790 if distance and forgiveness top your list. It has ratings on file from Golf Digest at 92/100, MyGolfSpy at 90/100 and Golf Monthly at 92/100, and the stronger lofts turn into carry. Pick the P7CB if feel and a traditional loft progression matter more, or if a stock 3-iron is a plus. It matches the P790 at Golf Digest with 92/100 and sits at 86/100 with MyGolfSpy. Price does not separate them, so the choice comes down to whether you want help with launch and distance or a compact cavity back with a wider stock set.
