Hi everyone, I need some advice, I have this really old set of Pings Zing 2 and I feel like the new technology could do some good to my game, but I am afraid to choose badly. Seems like the Ping G20 or G25 could be a good bet (without actually trying them). What do you guys think?

At minimum, I'd go to a retailer and hit some in the bay or simulator to compare against the classic Zings.  I trust you'll like the newer technology.

Hybrid: Taylormade Burner 19*

I would say you would be fine picking either the G25 or G20 without hitting them. They are both very forgiving, easy clubs to hit. One of my buddies has the G20's and he absolutely loves them. I bought a bunch of my clubs without hitting them you will he fine.

I made the switch from Mizuno back to Ping last year.I have the G-25's and love them, especially their hybrids( I have a 23 and 27 degree). There easy to hit, get the ball flight higher and love the feel of them.

G20's and G25's very easy to hit and a upgrade to your Zings.

I would suggest you take a few of your Zings to a seller that has a hitting bay. Test both newer model clubs to your current.

My experience during a demo days at a local driving range was the G20's yield a little higher ball flight from the G25's. Regardless do some testing and get fit before purchasing. Good luck.

I'm lovin' my G20's.  Great clubs, I've got irons 6-U and 23,27 and 31 hybrids.  Love that the hybrids can be lie adjusted.  Made a big difference for me on  how well I hit them.  Try a set you won't be sorry.  BTW I like the looks of the 20's over 25's.  I guess I'm just a shovel lovin fool!

    • Day 37, June 10.  Today was primarily WFH, so I had several practice sessions (indoors, off a mat, into the net).  At least one each of U, 9, and 6-iron full swings with the usual priority.   I also tried a few times a putting type stroke with my 4H, as something I should probably learn how to hit (and what it does), but the mechanical shot at home off a mat doesn't tell me much of what it's doing.  That's something I should probably try on a real green, not during a round until I've tried it.
    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
