S55 and i25 irons are the same "foggy chrome" finish as the i20 irons.

I have not heard of any problems with the i25 and s55 irons, so I am sure they are just fine going forward.

Thanks for doing that, but it is not necessary at all.  I am a happy customer overall. I just wanted to see if maybe it was something that I was doing wrong in handling them. The only thing I would ask is that they replace any irons that it would happen to on my new s55's, but I really am not even worried about that happening.

I have the same problem as the image posted on my 6 iron - I25 - 2 months old.  All the other irons look fine, the bubbling around the front edge on toe of the club.  I was wondering if I had caused it myself but after looking at these photos I will be taking it back to be replaced

Sent an email to PiNG asking them about the bubbling problem. I haven't heard back from their customer service but I'm giving them this week and then if I don't hear from them I'll re send an email. It will have been two weeks. I don't think it unreasonable to expect them to get back to me. But if I am being unreasonable, Someone please tell me as much! Thanks.

Got my full set of I25's  replaced - 3 - LW - only bubbling on one club and perhaps a hint of it starting on another.

Same with my i20s the first time.  The second time I just replaced the ones I needed to that were bubbling.  So far so good on my s55 irons.

Went back through the pics in this thread.  Add to that the info from the PGA show, and now I really want a new set of S55's and some Glide wedges. :beer:

Hi,

I have a set of i20's purchased in Feb. 2012.

I have had problems with the CTP weights falling off the gap wedge twice and once off the PW.

Have also had problems with ferrules lifting on around 4 or 5 clubs.

The whole set and odd irons have been back to Ping for repair around 4 times in total, which they have done free of charge.

My issue is that irons from a quality company like Ping should not fail to this extent.

They were purchased at a Ping demo day a long way from where I live so not possible to return them there, I have used a local Ping dealer.

I have contacted Ping Europe, several times, who will not do anything other than keep repairing them.

Has anybody experienced similar problems and what did Ping do about it.

Does anybody have an email address for a senior customer service person at the Ping HQ in the U.S.

Thanks

Dave

    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
