Anyone playing Ping Rapture irons?

Currently using Mizuno's MX 25's...hitting them really thin and not much distance. The Raptures are pricey but I've read nothing but good things. Any feedback would help. Thanks.

A guy besides me in a driving range was using Ping Rapture. I borrowed his 3 Woods and I hit around 200 yards, which is almost the same distance with my driver (TaylorMade R7 TP Quad).

Then I also tried his IRONS (3,4,5) which I have no difficulty hitting my shots unlike with my Spalding Overdrive Irons which I already taken out from my bag. So, I think Ping Rapture is a good stuff. If you ever got one, just let me know how it works for you because I'm also planning to buy in the near future. ---------------- Now playing: Don Henley - The Boys of Summer via FoxyTunes

I just ordered a set of PING G10 irons. Definitely easy to get in the air and hit straight. I have been told that the G10s are pretty much the same technology as the Raptures only without the super-hot face, so you lose a little distance. You might consider G10s as a lower cost alternative to the Raptures.

with your handicap (14) i would definetly go with the s58 irons. I've hit them numerous times, and was really close to buying them. Ultimately I went with the MP-60 because they were forged and I just liked the way they fealt. But he s58 are by far the best Ping irons out there: not loaded with technology, not that funky "Ping" look, good penetrating trajectory, decent feel for a cast club, good forgiveness... everything you would want in a club

I hit the s58's and i10's and went with the i10's. More forgiving than the 558's with a bit higher ball launch, but still good feel and less offset. I would agree with FalconBaller to hit some different clubs with your handicap. I switched from G2's to the i10's because I found they had too much offset and too high a ball launch, and as I work to get my handicap down, my instructor recommended I move away from the 'game improvement iron' which the Rapture fits into.

Find a demo day and hit them all and see what you like.
