PING S59

[PINGELI]

I am infatuated with the look of teh PING S59 irons and I know these are going to become increasingly hard to get. I am able to get a set (througha local course) custom built by PINg for $113 a club (includes the DG x100 shaft I need and the cushin insert). Should I pull the trigger on these? Has anyone else played these? I am a mid-high handicapper but have a fast swing and get good ball flight. the PING s59 set up great for me and even mis-hits didn;t stray too much. I am able to work the ball with these (which I can't do a great deal with my Raptures). I do not like the S58 because of the ferrule (I love the look of traditional PINGS-unfinished, industrial-looking heads). What are your thoughts on this iron? I will probably sell my Raptures (which are basically new.... these were through one round and immediately cleaned because I am super anal about my clubs) but keep the 2-4 irons in case I ever struggle with the 2-4 in the S59's.

I went from G5's to S59's and am hitting my irons better then I ever have in my life. See my review in the review section. You can't go wrong. (And the Nippon Pro950 shafts are great).
