Ping release Fall 2019?

[matchavez]

That sign has so many subtleties that reinforce so many things...

[maowv]

I'd love to see i500 (or i510 or whatever name) with some foam inside the hollow head to dampen feel and sound. That clubbed performs and gives me the yards back that age is robbing but they just don't feel or sound very good.

[mangelou]

Yeah, I got fitted into those and as nice as it is to hit a 7I 190 yards, I couldn’t get past the feel and sound.

Wouldn’t the next generation of the i210 and i500 be released in the spring of ‘20?

I emailed them when the announcement for the glide eye 2 wedges came out and their response was that there wasn’t any plans for a full eye 2 reboot. I hope they were lying to me.

They won't even make a 50º option, so I'm pretty sure they're telling you the truth.

[JoeJoeJoeUrBoat]

For someone contemplating the i210s, would you suggest waiting until the spring for their newer version?

Rumors of an i210 Stealth coming to retail Q1 of 2020

Wow! If true, Ping will have their best seller on their hands!

Highly doubt that.

 

When companies do that it's usually as a mid life (or late life) kicker. The i210 is at a point in its life cycle where sales are going to decline against other new models without either a price reduction or some different swizzle. Changing the finish is a way to entice any remaining fence sitters with low additional investment.

 

Few current i210 owners are going to make the switch, so realistically how many buyers would that leave? If the market was that big, they'd have come out with it from the beginning.

If Ping came out with stealth’s, I would be all over them. Wish all of the OEM’s would just offer black from the start.

[erock9174]

Black i210’s. Have no business gaming them but I’d force myself to become a better ball striker. Then dry hump them after each rd?

I just spit my beer at my phone in laughter at this! ☝️??

Which is ridiculous, btw. I'd play that wedge as low as 46*....

Nah. Ping hit a home run with the Stealth wedges, I dont know any more details aside from the fact that they’re coming so don’t quote me on this but if Ping were smart they would switch out the 431 and go with 8620 in the i210 Stealth and pair it with the QPQ process.

They already felt soft to begin with, so pairing that larger elastomer with 8620 would definitely turn some heads.

Just don’t get the love for black irons. Fine in my wedges, but don’t want them in a set of irons.

[Here comes the Boom]

710s will be in Jan

Other irons and drivers will be late spring early summer

Any details on the 710’s?

 

[PowderedToastMan]

Can anyone else confirm stealth i210’s? After a year of going back and forth, I was going to put an order in on i210’s but I would definitely wait for a stealth version.

That’s disappointing.

[Kball10]

Any updates on iblade replacement ?

Second that.

[Hedgehog]

Pretty sure I as a iBlade player would love to see the iBlade 2.0 finally come out, iBlades have been out since 2016 and still dominate the tour usage in men's major tours. I am already on my second set of iBlades.

 

Last time I check usage out of Ping's website, of those tours they list the used clubs the usage was as follows:

iBlade 20

Blueprint 9

i210 14

And a punch of S55's still in play also.

I thought the notch in the hosel was for lie adjustment. Never thought of it having any other purpose.

Actually hoping for black 710’s. Bigger notch to fool around with.

 

[T.B.]

Black 710 would be cool.

If you do that to a G700 don't you get a G400 .... ?
