About the TaylorMade M CGB

The M CGB revived TaylorMade's CGB (Center of Gravity Back) name in September 2017 as a maximum-technology distance iron sold alongside the 2017 M1 and M2. Every head in the set — wedges included — carries face slots and a Speed Pocket over an ultra-thin face, with milled tungsten weights pushing the centre of gravity low and back for the highest peak flight of any TaylorMade iron of its era. Unusually, the long-iron lofts are weaker than the M2's while the scoring clubs are stronger, giving a 20.5-degree 4-iron, a 29.5-degree 7-iron and a 43-degree pitching wedge on a lightweight build with a D0 swing weight throughout. Figures are the men's standard right-handed steel build.

Frequently asked questions

What is the loft of a TaylorMade M CGB 7-iron?

The M CGB 7-iron has a loft of 29.5 degrees, with a 63-degree lie and a 37-inch steel-shaft length.

How do M CGB lofts compare with the 2017 M2?

The pattern is unusual: the M CGB's long irons are weaker — a 20.5-degree 4-iron against the M2's 19 — to make them easier to launch, while its 9-iron through sand wedge are stronger, with a 43-degree pitching wedge.

Why is the M CGB swing weight D0 across the set?

TaylorMade built the M CGB as a lightweight distance iron with the Nippon N.S. Pro 840 stock steel shaft, targeting easy speed and the highest flight in the range, so the whole set is specified at D0.

What does CGB stand for on TaylorMade irons?

Center of Gravity Back. The name first appeared on the r7 CGB Max era of clubs and was revived for this 2017 iron, whose tungsten weighting pushes the CG low and deep.

Finding a used set

The TaylorMade M CGB ran from 2017 to 2019 and is no longer in production, so the used market is the only source. Search the used listings on eBay, and check the loft and lie against the chart above before buying — sets this age have often been bent from standard.

Data compiled from:
  • 2ndswing.com TaylorMade M CGB Iron Set specification table — loft, lie, length, offset (in millimetres, converted to inches here) and D0 swing weight for the 4-iron through sand wedge.
  • qsponge.com M CGB specification table — independently reproduces the identical loft/lie/length/offset/swing-weight figures. A Japanese-market Amazon listing of the N.S. Pro 840 5-PW set corroborates the 23/26/29.5/33.5/38/43-degree lofts.
  • golfalot.com TaylorMade M CGB irons review — the September 2017 launch, cast 450SS construction with milled tungsten weights, face slots and Speed Pockets through the whole set including the wedges, and the lightweight Nippon N.S. Pro 840 stock steel shaft.
  • Note: bounce was not published in the sources consulted and is omitted rather than estimated. year_discontinued is 2019, the year TaylorMade's M5/M6 launch replaced the M-series iron family; the CGB slot was dropped without a direct successor, so the successor field is null.
