I played a whole round today with TaylorMade MC Irons and CB Irons, and I tell you what, if I absolutely had to choose one set (no combo), I really think I'd go with the MC. The TaylorMade MB Irons is beautiful, and a fabulous set, but I'm very impressed by the MC. I wanted a bit more forgiveness with the middle irons and the MC's are like cheating without losing too much feel. This too is where I think TM will make hay with this line. I could see most players under a 12 having no problems gaming these for wholesale golf clubs.
I picked up the 4 iron in the CB Irons and hit bullet after bullet. I hit shot after shot that carried a very consistent 212 yards which is probably in the neighborhood of 5 yards further than I carry most 4 irons. They are just a touch chunky and offset for my personal tastes buy I am going to give it a go in the 4. I am not sure about how many sets of CB's they will move with the TaylorMade Burner 2.0 being pushed, but it makes a nice transition for a combo set with the MC's.
Offset of the MC is progressive vs. the R9 TP Irons: less in the 2-4, same in the 5, slightly more in the 6-PW. The sole width is where I think the greatest improvement is: it interacts much better w/ the turf than the R9 TP in my opinion. In a quick comparison, the sole is much closer to the R9 TP B than the "chunkier" http://www.golfsalecenter.com/Best-TaylorMade-R9-TP-Irons-954.html. Sole width is what usually kills the TP line for me. The offset is normally okay to my eye, but the chunkier sole and I just don't get along.
