TaylorMade P790 Left-Handed Single Iron
The P790 left-handed single iron earns its best-in-class spot for combining hollow-body distance technology with a player-friendly profile, delivering unusually high ball speed and a surprisingly soft feel for a distance iron. Compared with the Titleist T200's precision shaping and the Ping G430's outright forgiveness, the P790 trades a bit of shot-shaping control for superior distance and a premium feel, which helps justify its higher price for left-handed single-iron buyers seeking modern distance tech.

Titleist T200 Left-Handed Single Iron
The T200 left-handed single iron stands out as the market leader for players who want compact, tour-inspired shaping with reliable distance and tighter dispersion, offering more workability than the hollow-bodied P790. Financially and technically, Titleist commands a premium and typically retains strong resale value, making the T200 a sensible choice for left-handed players prioritizing control and long-term ownership compared with the more distance-focused TaylorMade and value-oriented Mizuno options.
