Irons: The big debate
Do you prefer the look of a blade or a game-improvement iron? For many of us, the iron we WANT to put in the bag is different from the one that we NEED to play better golf.

Picturing where you want to land your ball, then watching it settle exactly where you imagined is one of the most satisfying feelings in golf. But there’s a pretty big moment in between; a split-second that decides the fate of your golf ball: the moment of impact.
That blink-and-you’ll-miss-it contact between club and ball is where all the magic happens, which is why we’re laser-focusing on the exact moment. From the feeling in your hands to the thoughts in your head, what leaps to mind when you pull up a mental picture of hitting and iron shot?
STAT: The average golf swing lasts 1.2 seconds, but the club is only in contact with the ball for approximately 1/200 of second. Wow!
We want that smooth, buttery feel as if the iron and the ball have become one for 1/200 of a second. In that moment, we already know the ball is on the right course. That’s where the technology inside the club comes in: tech that helps you make that happen.
PING’s use of elastomer inserts in the brand-new i230 irons provides that incredible sound and feel. PING prides itself on that Tour-level feel, and the tungsten toe & top weights only enhance that stable, confidence-inspiring impact.
But PING is never going to be satisfied stopping there. Alongside the Tour-like feel, you’re also getting the consistent launch and spin characteristics that a PING Tour player demands in their irons.
You can find out which how these irons work for you by visiting us for a fitting. Each one is amazing, but we’d love to help you get the right ones in your bag.
