Thanks for the advice guys. I think I will struggle onwards with the Zings for a while...at least until I spot some G10/15's on ebay going super cheap!

Hi all. I'm 26 and starting to get back into golf again. I used to have regular lessons about 15 years ago, but stopped playing when I went to university. I suspect that my handicap peaked at about 20, although I'm now about 26 (at best!). I inheritted my Dad's old Ping Zing irons and as they are now 16 years old, I wondered if it was worth me upgrading. My current Pings give me a lot of confidence when I address the ball, due to their beefy heads, so if I was to go for another club, I'd like to have the same confidence level. Can anyone recommend such a club? I'd like to stay with Ping, if possible, and have confirmed that I should be using black spot (via Ping's online fitting test), but I still intend to go for a fitting to make sure. I have heard a lot of people talking about the G10's, and their large head. Exactly how large are they? Are Ping Zing's considered to have a large head? Also, exactly what is the meaning of "lie" when talking about club fittings? Given that I have only just started playing again, with an approximate handicap of about 26, is it worth upgrading from the 16 year old Ping Zing's...? Thanks! Nick

Hi guys. I'm very much in the same boat. Used to play up in Lancashire about 10 years ago, but have now decided to re-start my golfing from London.

26...same as my handicap! :(
