I test dove the PING i20 today.  Its my first experience with Ping.  I am a 10 hdcp and currently playing Mizuno mx900 with TT SL R300 shaft which I have had since I was an 18 hdcp.

I like the i20 setup (tested 7 iron only) but the ball flight was way too high!  most shots also veered to the right and really had to work at keeping the flight down. Swing speed avg was 80 and the carry was around 155, 165 on the ones the fitter said I hit perfectly.  My old Mizuno were 165 avg. The only shafts the fitter had were KBS reg and stiff.  The stiff seemed to have a few more on-line but still quite high.

Question:  Do all PING have such a high ball flight? Can a different shaft help?

I like the set up and they feel ok but I cant get used to the high fade.....

Any suggestions?  Was also thinking about the JPX800 Pro's,  but they dont look at forgiving as the i20.

I got i20's this year with Dynamic Gold 300stiff. Ball flight is high I suppose but controllable if need be. If you're looking for low ball flight try KBS stiff.

    • Day 446 - 2025-12-20 Woke up early and got some swings in before teaching putting all day. Looking forward to doing the same tomorrow.
    • It's miles better, though.
    • Went up to Erie for a lesson. I still need to work on how I shift my weight into my right leg and turn into the right leg. I extend it too much and externally rotate it too much. That all causes me to over rotate the hips and cause weight shift issues in the downswing. I need to feel like my right leg gains flex (it doesn’t), and my knee cap faces forward. The right hip sinks back and right. I need a need a ton more internal rotation. I still have some right elbow issues in the backswing. The path is better, but too much right elbow bend. I need to maintain width in the right elbow and let my right shoulder retract more, let’s say at A3, which helps keep that right arm extended.
    • Day 130 12-20 Today was just swinging what i had and go from there. Did focus on getting to lead side. Recorded swings for lesson  and hit real balls.
