I use Cobra s9 irons graphite shaft regular flex. They are very good for me for the 4 iron through 9 iron. However with the PW and GW I had trouble hitting high from a tight fairway. I saw how one of my fellow player was easily hitting high soft lobs on to the green from 50 yards in with her Ping G10 U wedge. So I tried it and liked it enough to order a I10 Utility wedge in graphite regular flex, red dot. I picked I10 over G10 since I hate offset short irons.

Now I am able to hit the ball as high as I want so long as a divot is taken, even from the tight lies in fairway. The red dot has a
slightly flat lie which is suited to my swing. I am enjoying this club
so much today I ordered a I10 W wedge! A Mixed set is Nirvana!

Once apon a time it was Ping Irons but not Ping Woods. Well now I play Ping Woods and Mizuno MP57 Irons. My driver is a 12 degree loft, no draw, stiff shaft shortened by Ping to 44 inchs and this club is a fair way lover. Now this G10 driver is really a great feeling club. Still have a G5 3 wood 14 degree loft stiff shaft, a good club. No more long irons I use a G10 7 wood and a G10 9 wood, no hibreds or what ever you call them. The 12 degree G10 short shaft cost me just alittle distance bit on the tight courses I play I could care less.

I have been researching and testing the newest drivers, fairway woods and hybrids. The Ping G10 driver really stood out in distance, feel, and sound categories. I will be making my purchases soon but need to seriously test the finalists at a driving range. I hope to try the 3 different shaft availablities (TFC 129D, ProLaunch Red, and V2 High Launch 65) along with the standard clubhead versus the draw clubhead, and the various lofts. Since I periodically fight a slice I will most likely end up with the G10 draw version.

My only hesitation is Ping's color choices in shafts, head cover, and club soles. The bright obnoxious color schemes drastically cheapen the look of your wonderful products.

Keith: Don't fret. You have some quality tools there, you just need to learn to use them. The G10's would've been better for your skill level but the I10's are a very solid iron. Slow down your swing and take divots. You'll be fine.

Bought my G-10 irons (5-PW) after testing both i's and G's, definitely more forgiving with more offset. Greater distance (even w steel shafts) and accuracy. H'cap still 18, but that's mainly cos I play less than 15 rounds/yr. Added a 58 deg Ping Tour wedge.

Help, I am a 28 handicap player, I purchased a set of i10’s irons 4-PW because I really liked the look of them and thought they would improve my game. 6 months later I am struggling to hit the ball consistently. If I am honest I have gained 4/6 strokes over 18 holes and my game is getting worse each week. Should I have gone for the G10 or Raptures or something else, any thoughts good advise most welcome.

Just purchased the I10's this last week. First new set of clubs in a long time. I got out of golf for a while (5-8yrs) then recently picked it up again. I was looking for a players club with forgiveness. Looked at mizuno mp 57's and 25''s. Still like the 57's but A little rough right now because my swing still needs some repitition to regain consistency. The I10's were a good compromise between a true players club and a thick soled non feeling game enhancement iron. I got extra distance and accuracy in my irons right away on first round, when i made a decent swing. I would have never considered Ping in the past however, these clubs have made me eat a little crow. With the fitting and customization that you get when you order Pings make it worth the price. Still cheaper or equal to Mizunos, taylors, callaways...

Just got a G10 21* hybrid with stock ping shaft to replace my broken Nickent 3dx. Sick... sick... sick...

Best hybrid I have hit. I am usually a 9-10 handicap and this thing is simply perfect. I can put a little draw on it a little fade on it, but mostly, it wants to go straight.

I think the Cobra Baffler is a great club, the Callaway FT is super nice, but for my money, this junk is the shizzle.
