Had these clubs for three months and traded them in. Club is head is bulky and the off set was too much (for me). Traded my Top Flight Tours for these clubs and wish I hadn't, simply because the Top Flight had less offset than the Pings. With that said, Ping puts out a beautiful piece of work that is great for the beginner or hacker. However, if you are looking for a new set of irons are used to a small amount of offset, consider the I-3 blades or another line entirely. Similar Products Used: None |

Nice solid yet soft feel. Very forgiving with decent distance. Cut 5-10 strokes off from my previous Tommy Armour 855s. Great price for a new set. Similar Products Used: Tommy Armour 855s |

Just Got these clubs today 3degrees upright JZ stiff steel shafts. Went straight to the range and was very impressed deadly accurate and the best distance control I have ever seen.Went from a slight fade to straight and really easy to draw. Forget other companys that offer supersteels or crazy mixed metals. Ping is the way to go costom fit clubs built for your swing and physical characteristics you can decide what grips you want shaft type and serial # etched on the hosel and ping can readjust these clubs at any time if your swing changes or you grow.

These are great clubs. The fitting was excellent and netted me some very custom sticks (3.5 inches over, 6 degrees upright) These things are accurate and solid feeling. The short irons feel better than my isi BeCu wedges and the 5 iron hits 185 (OK, so I'm 7 feet tall). I'm gonna be hitting in the 80's by the end of the summer. Customer Service The actual guy who put the sticks together called to discuss the process. At 7 feet tall, these were very custom but he assured me that he had made several sets for NBA players. Best customer service in the biz. Similar Products Used: Golfsmith Nickel, various knockoffs |

Bought the irons in December. Bad mistake. Up here can't play until at least April. Only got to hit them in and indoor driving range. When I finally got them set up for me (white dot, white grips) I never regretted buying them on reputation alone. The Cushin shaft gives you the impression your not hitting anything at all but gives you just the right amount of feedback on miss hits. Distances were about the same as my old clubs so not adjustment needed here. The look at set up with the thin top line gave you the feel of a blade in and oversized. On solid shots the ball just exploded off the club face. Then new finish on the faces does help spin the ball a bit more and it does tend to shed water off the club more readily than other clubs. Best choices in irons I've ever made. Customer Service Once the clubs had been set up and the specs sent to the factory the turn around time from Arizona to Alberta, Canada was 10 days total. Great!

Like many others I doubted custom fitting until I saw it in action. The reults of the fitting were dramatic. Being 6' 3" the difference in swinging proper length and lie clubs was fantastic. Needless to say I purchased a set at once. Expensive but worth the cash. Longer than my old black cats and much easier to hit especially from tightly mown fairways. Buy a set, you will not regret it. Customer Service Excellent fitting service, clubs were ordered and received wihtin 2 weeks Similar Products Used: Lynx Black cat, Callaway X-12, Taylor Made LCG |

I didn't like these as much as the i3 blades, these faces are too big. If your looking for a real club with shot workability and distance get the Titleist 990s. Similar Products Used: Titleist 990, Ping i3 blade, Macgregor PCB |

I have hit them on the range and played with a friend who recently purchased a set. They are Ping's best model iron since the Eye2. Great look, feel, accuracy and distance. Similar Products Used: Titleist, Taylor Made, Cobra, Callaway |
