PING iBlade!

First Look: PING iBlade

Yep. S55 replacement.

 

[azgreg]

Looks sharp.

That's not going to be near as forgiving to hit as the S55's. It doesn't say if it's forged or cast but I'm assuming it's cast. (My S55's should become a "classic" and worth five times what I paid for them in a few years... maybe?)

I was wondering how long it would take for you to pick up the release of these on your radar.

I think it took 5 seconds. [emoji33]

Yep - I was a little slow today..............

I would like to see the specs on these.

Can't be right.Ping likes to have .25° and .5° settings in there.

Hallelujah. Traditional lofts.

 

[TEA Time]

I'm not a fan of Ping irons but I gotta admit... I like the looks of these.

Stupid ferrule............................

 

[TEA Time]

I'm okay with the ferrule. I'm more intrigued by the thin top line. Pings usually turn me off with their big fat fatty top lines. Also the offset is subtle. I dig it.

 

[azgreg]

I like their loft progression.

iBlade Irons

3-Iron 20.00°
4-Iron 23.50°
5-Iron 27.00°
6-Iron 30.50°
7-Iron 34.00°
8-Iron 38.00°
9-Iron 42.00°
PW 46.00°

I'd match them up with some Glide wedges.

Purdy.
