What the differences mean
At the 7-iron, the P750 Tour Proto is 34° and the P770 (2017) is 33°, a 1° gap. Each degree of loft is worth roughly 3 to 4 yards of carry at the same swing speed, so the P770 (2017) should carry roughly 3 to 4 yards further with that club, on a slightly lower, shallower flight than the P750 Tour Proto. Across the 8 clubs both sets share, the P770 (2017) averages 0.5° stronger, with the largest gap at the 7-iron (34° vs 33°). The pitching wedges are 47° and 46°; the stronger one leaves a 4° jump to a 50° gap wedge, which matters when planning wedge gapping.
The sets are built differently: the P750 Tour Proto runs 3-iron to PW (8 clubs), the P770 (2017) 3-iron to AW (9 clubs).
Both are players irons, built for roughly scratch to 10 handicaps. Small-to-mid cavity backs with traditional lofts, modest offset and workable shaping for low-handicap players. Because they target the same golfer, the decision comes down to the specific loft, feel and shaping differences rather than who the sets are made for.
The P750 Tour Proto is listed as forged, multi-step forging with tungsten weighting in the 3 to 7 irons and the P770 (2017) as forged cavity back with tungsten back bar. Both use tungsten weighting to lower the centre of gravity and steady the head on off-centre strikes.
Both sets were introduced in 2017, so this is a choice between two models from the same lineup rather than an upgrade: TaylorMade designed them to sit side by side for different players.
Which should you choose?
The P770 (2017) is the stronger-lofted set — up to 1° stronger than the P750 Tour Proto on matching clubs. Expect longer carry per numbered iron but a flatter descent angle; gapping at the wedge end is where that shows up.
