Definitely suggest swinging them before purchasing. Might also want to consider the Ping i15's. A marked improvement in my mind over the i10's. Good luck.

If you don`t like/can`t hit Mizuno MX 200`s, the Ping S 57`s probably are not the right club for you.With your swing speed,stiff or X stiff,probably. Try to get fitted, it`s worth the money,and you`ll play better,or have the opportunity to do so. I`m a Bridgestone J 33 man, and love them! But,not for the timid! Good luck!

I hit the S57 blades, I truely love them. I have the project X shafts, which I would recomend if your a divot taker, if your not I would stay away from them. The S 57 are forgiving in comparison to other blades, but very good contact is still required for these. I got mine off Ebay for $350.

I've never hit the MX-200, but them being a cavity back, I would assume they would be more forgiving than the S57

ive played a couple rounds with a set of s58's with stiff shafts... (i normally play regular) and they are surprisingly forgiving. they're not blades.. i honestly consider them a cross between a cavity back and a muscle back.

the s57's look similar to the s58's so i assume they play pretty similar...

i liked how they set up at address, i hate irons with alot of offset, they felt pretty good when i hit it pure and i could definetly tell when i miss-hit the ball...

if i didnt like my hogans so much id definetly consider getting a set of s58/s57's....

I personally wouldnt do it just because I wouldnt want to go from forged irons back to cast. IMO, you would miss having the feel that you get with forgings.

Ping S59 come in TWO versions, the S59 Blade and the S59 Tour, the easiest way to tell one from the other, is very simple: the Tour has ferrules, the Blades do not. NOt sure about the s57 and s58 but the s59 comes in a blade...

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
