Spotted: New TaylorMade “Proto” iron at the Rocket Mortgage Classic

Published

on

On Tuesday at the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic at Detroit Golf Club, GolfWRX.com spotted a brand new TaylorMade “Proto” iron.

Earlier this year, at the Valero Texas Open, we spotted Rory McIlroy using a new TaylorMade “Proto” iron, which was eventually adopted by Collin Morikawa and Michael Block. Then, last week, we spotted Nelly Korda testing out new “P7CB” irons, which look nearly identical to the TaylorMade Proto irons unveiled earlier in the year.

The “Proto” iron we spotted on Tuesday in Detroit, however, has a significantly different head design.

Based on the screw in the toe section, and the thru-slot seen on the sole, it appears that the new Proto design may even be hollow-bodied.

Nick Dunlap is reportedly testing out a 3-iron ahead of the Rocket Mortgage Classic, but it’s still unclear whether these Proto’s are part of a full set, or whether they’re just long irons or driving irons.
