The wide world of Ping golf clubs is about to grow even larger with a new G20 anf I20 line of clubs. To some degree, Ping always has been known for its eye-catching products.
First, let’s look at the Ping I20. The discount i20 irons have a low-glare, satin-chrome finish. So who will use these irons and who will use the S56, Ping’s blade-style iron?
“The i20 will appeal more to players of all abilities,” Schweigert said. “We expect to see the i20 on Tour, but the S series irons will be our most popular iron out there. The i20 is a progressive set design. The long irons are longer from heel to toe. They have a higher inertia and are easier to launch up in the air. As we work our way into the middle irons, there is a little less length from heel to toe and a little less offset. They are easy to extract from difficult lies. The short irons are just fantastic. They are solid, and the distance control is really, really good.”
The face of the Ping G20 iron is 10 percent thinner than the face of its predecessor, the G15, and it has extra structural support in the middle of the clubhead to avoid any unwanted trampoline effect.
The G20 features a multi-material badge – aluminum in the center with elastomer in the heel and toe – in the back cavity to dampen vibrations. The G20 is offset, much like the legendary Ping EYE2. Also like the EYE2, the G20 is optimized for a large segment of golfers, from touring pros to ordinary amateurs.
A new steel shaft for the G20 has a reconfigured step pattern that is designed to provide a smoother transfer of energy. Graphite shafts also are available. “The distance control with the G20 irons ping is fabulous,” Jertson said. “The face absolutely doesn’t have any hotspots.”
