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)

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂
