PING unveils new i irons
PING welcomes its first iron to utilise 431 stainless steel
The new i iron, PING’s first model to utilise 431 stainless steel, is a softer players-style head that offers workability and ball-flight control with the forgiveness to ensure accuracy and consistency.
PING has launched its first model to utilise 431 stainless steel with the new better-player "i iron".
PING engineers have used 431 stainless steel to provide a high strength-to-weight ratio and softer feel to deliver workability and trajectory control with forgiveness.
Larger head sizes and a low, back centre of gravity location in the long irons offer forgiveness and distance where golfers need it most, while the short irons and wedges provide precision and control.
A tungsten toe weight in the 3 to 7-iron increases forgiveness, while an elastomer CTP helps to create a more solid sound and feel.
In terms of looks, a thin top rail and minimal offset creates a confidence-inspiring look at address.
