Awesome those irons look awesome. It would be cool if you gave us a review and some pics once you receive them.

I will! My instructor gave me a 7i of both i200 and Ping G along with the wrench to change them out. I spent several sessions hitting both and seeing what I came up with on the monitor as well as how each felt and which one gave me more ya know...the 'it' feel. I tend to hit irons quite high and I really liked both the i200 and the G. However I was able to work the i200 better and the trajectory was better as well. As expected the G iron was better on mis-hits. I liked the feel on solid shots better with the i200. I'll give a more thorough review of the whole set and send pics as well. I also got the Ping G 3W and Glide wedges. Can't wait!

Congrats on the buy!  Hit those for awhile in a "head-to-head" with the Apex CF16's last month, and they are definitely sweet.  Wound up going with the CF16's as the numbers were a just little better for me on swings where I didn't flush it...but man it was a virtual toss up.  Might have to skip your coming review to avoid buyer's remorse :~(.  Enjoy!

Dang ... your clubs are 10 times better than mine now!!!:-P

I was thinking the same thing, assuming you have the i20's as well :hmm:.  I didn't think I would want new irons until I seen the i200's, but won't go swing them because I don't want to be tempted and I really like the i20's.

Yes, and I'm still quite happy with mine and have no real excuse to go looking for new ones yet.  (Doesn't mean I'm not always searching for an excuse though):beer:

Nice work!!  I just got my i200s last week and have played one round and a couple range sessions.  Still getting used to them but so far I'm pretty impressed with how they perform all around.  Coming from a forged set of irons the feel is a little different...I'd say it's marginal...so that's the only thing I've really noticed right away.  Distance is spot on, though and they fly straight so no complaints there.

Driver: Cobra FlyZ | 9.5 Degrees Draw | Fujikura Pro 63 Tour Spec
Fairway Wood: Cobra F7 3-4 Wood | 14.5 degrees | Fujikura Pro 65
Hybrid: Cobra F7 3-4H | 19 degrees | Fujikura Pro 75H
Irons: Srixon Z545 (4-Iron) | Srixon Z 765 (5-PW)
Wedges: Titleist Vokey SM6 | 50 F Grind | 54 M Grind | 58 K Grind
Putter: Odyssey O-Works 1W WBW

Some weeks ago I went to a tournament and was lucky to be standing right next to Lee Westwood when he hit a shot from the trees. I looked into his bag and what did I see? Ping clubs of course, but not the new iBlades. He had i200's!!!!

Yeah looks certainly played a roll. But honestly the G's look pretty good looking down. I don't care for the backs much, the design is silly to me. And although the forgiveness is better with the G's , my main miss is an earth shattering shank which no iron will grant forgiveness on. I'm so damn excited to play them!

Wow. Beautiful Mike! With that pic I'm even more giddy waiting for mine. I think Ping did a hell of a good job on these.

Yeah they turned out great. Best of both worlds IMO, look great, cool satin finish, very playable and fairly long.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
