I kinda like the look. Not sure if they are to replace the Ping i25's or not.

They've been added to the USGA’s Conforming Club List in both right-handed and left-handed models.

They do look nice. Not enough for me to give up my current stix though...

Yes they'll be replacing the i25 irons. Hears what I've heard: Slightly larger sole, thinner topline, less offset. Made from the same material as the Glide wedges. Stock shaft options: CFS Distance, DG, Nippon Pro Modus Tour 105, Project X, DG XP 95. They'll be available July 30th.

Same material as the Glide wedges, available in an iron. At the very least, I'm going to need to attend a demo day.

You usually don't see that combination together; sounds very appealing to me.

I think they had to make the sole a little wider because they added a larger undercut but wanted a "cleaner" look. At address I'm guessing it's a combo between the S55 irons and the i25's.

That has me interested.

I guess the Nippon Pro might be the next best since KBS doesn't look to be a stock option. That or Project X. I do not like Dynamic Gold. The other's look to be the lightweight shaft options.

Hey people, long time follower of the site, S&T;, and mvmac's swing instruction videos.

Just thought I'd chime in here on the 2nd pic you have posted. Makes me chuckle a bit.

At work yesterday I took a few minutes and modified the original i-E1 iron pic to clean up the badge, and this morning mygolfspy (and this site) have picked up on it and posted it. The former removed it earlier today. Thought I'd let you know retail release will most likely look like the first pic with the extra lines and blue color on the badge.

These new i series irons have a lot of PING fans (including me) very excited. Here's hoping they'll perform (which they most likely will since they're PINGS!)

Cheers.

I just bought i25's and they were reduced in price, maybe this was in anticipation of these coming out....

Agreed. There's a lot to like about them. I'll have to try them out when they're released.

Lee Westwood put the iE's in play this week.  [URL=http://thesandtrap.com/content/type/61/id/126623/] [/URL]

I wonder if he was the driving force behind these irons. He was very confident in the i25s he'd play with

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
