The bigger club face and the technology that goes into this set make them easy to play. Since this set of irons has been on the market for a few years, TaylorMade no longer manufacturers this set. However, if you can still get your hands on this set, you could expect somewhere between $200 to $500 for the set.
Bottom Line

What the r7 Draw irons will do is help square the club face quicker for straighter and more forgiving golf shots. If you are a mid to high handicap player, you definitely need to try this set before you make your next iron purchase.
