The "dot" color is representative of the club's lie angle. The cooler colors blues and greens are upright, while the warmer colors; yellow, reds and oranges are degrees flat. Black is a neutral angle.

If I am not mistaken, Orange is 2 degrees flat.

You can use the PGA website to cost them out, it says they are worth an avg of $135.00. I would not let them go for anything less than $200-$225. Some consider those the greatest Ping clubs made until a few of the recent models.

Bigtank is correct . . .when Eye2s were introduced orange code was 2° flat. The color codes remained the same for many years. Recently (2 years ago) Ping changed the color chart by adding another choice (purple) which resulted in a slight change to the lie angles. Orange is now 2.25° flat.

Also, as most know, you can send them back to PING for $35 and they will bend them up to three colors either way and mark them appropriately and ship back to new owner. Just did this on a set of G5's from here. Went from purple to green and LOVE them. Gotta say PING's customer service is TOP NOTCH!!!!!!

In my Nike SasQuatch Staff Bag:
Driver: Callaway FT-IQ 9.5 Stiff
Irons: Ping G5 4-P
Wedges: Vokey Spin Milled 56*, Cleveland bent to 49*
Putter: Scotty Cameron California Monterey
Ball: Srizon Z-Star Yellow
Range: SkyCaddie 2.5

Great to know since I have a black dot 2 iron that I could send back and get to match the rest of the set appropriately! Given that once I do this, I will have the full set 2-SW I think I could probably get a good bit more than the regular 3-PW set.

BEtter luck selling them individually or as a full set?

Ping will not bend the BeCu irons, and many of their older clubs cannot be bent, or they will not bend them. Just an FYI.

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
