Takomo 101T irons

Players distance, 2.0 of 5 for forgiveness

Takomo's hollow-body players distance iron for better ball strikers, handicaps 0 to 16: a thinner top line, a shorter blade and less offset than its first 101, 2.4 mm at the 7-iron, and a 32° 7-iron. Less help than Takomo's 101 MKII (3.0 of 5): choose the 101 MKII if a slice is your main miss.

Side view to scale: 2.4 mm offset

Choose it if

  • You strike it well and want distance with a little help.
  • You want a higher flight: the 32° 7-iron is weaker than most.
  • You play left-handed: it is sold left-handed.
  • You want to spend less: $589 is in the cheapest third of the 43 we price.

Choose something else if

  • You need a stock senior flex (Takomo builds senior only to order): PING G740, senior (A) flex in stock, 5.0 of 5.
  • For more help on a mishit, Takomo's 101 MKII is its game improvement iron, with 3.4 mm of offset at the 7-iron against the 101T's 2.4 mm.

After the pitching wedge (P, 46°): with a 56° sand wedge, the 10° gap leaves room for one more wedge, at about 51°.

Callaway's iron fitting guide puts your first wedge 4° to 6° above the highest-lofted wedge in your iron set. A gap in degrees is not a gap in yards. To choose that wedge, see the forgiving wedges by loft and bounce.

Build a whole bag around it, or check the lofts in the bag you carry.

Use the iron finder to compare sets for your usual miss, and check the set makeup and loft gaps before ordering.

How the 2.0 adds up

The forgiveness score is our reading of what Takomo publishes about the head, from 1 to 5. It is not a test result. How every score works.

The parts of the forgiveness score
PartPointsWhy
Head class 2 Players distance: a compact head that forgives a little.
Offset +0 2.4 mm at the 7-iron, below our 4.5 mm mark.
Sole +0 Takomo doesn't publish a sole width, so the sole earns no point.
Forgiveness score2.0of 5

The score rates the head only. Hand, flex and price decide which version you buy, not how forgiving it is. Takomo does not publish a sole width.
