Hey everyone,

I just got done playing a round today and noticed that the cavity badge on my Ping G5 5 Iron flew off. I hit the club a few times afterwords and not good doesn't feel right.

The club is about 3 years old, I love them but I wonder if I can get this repaired.

Here is a photo, anyone have this happen to them before? Can I buy a badge?

Unfortunately Ping will not send you the insert. You have to send it back to them. They will fix it for free and ship it back to you for free also. Call them on Monday and talk to them. They are very helpful.

it had rubber on the badge to make you feel that the club is good.  your going to need to find a spare badge somewhere like ebay or call ping to get a replacement. they just glue it on anyway so you can do it yourself.

You cannot do it yourself, because PING will not sell the badges. As was said, send it back, they will fix and return it free. Amazing service, too bad I could not stand the aestehtics and head offset of their g10 series irons when I started playing. Gave them to my dad, he likes them after having the loft and lie adjusted for himself. I still think the G series are the ugliest clubs ever made. Great feel, but if you can't look at em, you can't play em.

In the Ogio Kingpin bag:

Titleist 913 D2 9.5* w/ UST Mamiya ATTAS 3 80 w/ Harrison Shotmaker & Billy Bobs afternarket Hosel Adaptor (get this if you don't have it for your 913)
Wilson Staff Ci-11 4-GW (4I is out of the bag for a hybrid, PW and up were replaced by Edel Wedges)
TaylorMade RBZ 5 & 3 Fairway Woods

Cobra Baffler T-Rail 3 & 4 Hybrids

Edel Forged 48, 52, 56, 60, and 64* wedges (different wedges for different courses)

Seemore Si-4 Black Nickel Putter

    • Hey guys what’s up.  I found this new golf marketplace called Trade2golf does anyone knows it?
    • Update on this: I was at work talking to some of my golfer buddies, and mentioning the tendency to go left. One of the guys (scratch golfer), looked at my grip and concluded that my grip was neutral. He didn't think going left was due to my grip at all. He told me to go to the range and hit some balls with some tape on the bottom of the club, and also to take note of whether the left tendency was a draw, or just a more straight trajectory left. So I did that, and the left of target is not a curve. So he told me to check alignment with an alignment stick - pointing out that some shoes are curved, so while the toe may be forward your alignment is actually left (on a left shoe). He said that if it wasn't alignment, it could be the lie angle of the club. So, I went back and hit another bucket. Alignment is not the issue. So - I went and bought a cheap - but extremely rare to find - set of Brown Dot Ping Eye 2s, which have a 4 degree flat lie on them, and hit those. My gosh - what a difference. The balls are now going straight! And further, too! So, I will probably retire these blades and play with these brown dots. Maybe I need to change my profile handle to Brown Dot now!
