GOLF.com: May 2026's Top 5 Best-Selling Irons — Mizuno Holds the Crown as P790 Surges

All Five Spots Go to Irons

May 2026's best-seller data tells a clear story: golfers heading into summer are investing in irons above everything else. All five top-selling clubs were iron sets, with no woods, wedges, or putters cracking the list.

Mizuno Leads, P790 Makes a Run

The Mizuno Pro M-15 claimed the top spot for yet another month. A forged players-distance iron with higher launch and added forgiveness, it continues to resonate with a wide range of golfers who want Mizuno's signature feel without sacrificing modern performance.

Closely behind, the TaylorMade P790 (2025) posted a notable sales surge. Key upgrades include a new 4340M high-strength face material that expands the sweet spot by up to 24% versus the 2023 model, plus FLTD CG™ technology that progressively repositions the center of gravity from low in the long irons to higher in the short irons — optimizing launch and spin control throughout the set.

Titleist and Ping Round Out the Top 5

- Titleist T150: Stronger lofts and split tungsten weighting for precise, penetrating ball flight. - Titleist T250: An L-Face forged design for maximum speed, with a new Launch Spec configuration for players who need a higher-launching setup. - Ping G440: Thin-face construction with a low/back CG for game-improvement performance in a players-inspired shape.

Strokeslab Take

All five models fall squarely into the players-distance category — a segment engineered to improve SG: Approach (APP) by reducing dispersion while adding distance. The market's consistent preference for this category reflects a broader trend: golfers at all levels are prioritizing approach shot performance as their clearest path to lower scores.
