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)

      I'm good with the bunkers, and the fairways are SUPER wide. Three yards should stop a ball that isn't landing in it from rolling into the hay.

      I'm a little behind, but I just finished listening to the episode about practicing while on vacation.  I have two vacations coming up this month that I won't be bringing golf clubs with me on, and this was perfectly timed (I'm sure I am not the only one going on vacation in June).   Especially the part about stretching.  I keep putting off adding stretching, with golf in mind, to my daily routine.  I think I'm going to use these upcoming vacations, the first of which I'm flying off to on Thursday, as a way to get into this habit.   For anyone else interested, Fit For Golf (see sidebar) has fantastic stretching routines (some of which, I think, are on their free area).  I really should get back to doing their main exercises too.  I don't have any affiliation with them beyond "satisfied customer," in case that sounds like an ad. I may end up posting in the 5 minutes thread when I do golf stretches if it's my only practice that day... as if I don't already sound like a broken mp3 with my 10-15 minutes hitting indoors part. And back to the topic:  anyone not caught up on the podcast should consider catching up and listen to that episode, especially if you're going on a non-golf vacation this summer and want some practice ideas that aren't the at-home practice routine from LSW about long bunker shots (which I am sure we all do regularly).
