SLDR is right. The back of the iron just screams "gimmick" to me. So sad...may have to get some i25s just to have if this is what this line is going to turn into :(
[/quote]I agree, although they look more appealing than the sldr. It's definitely not a set worthy of a $999.00 price point.

Buy the i25's while they're still available.

So it turns out after closer inspection that the irons I originally thought were the GMAX, then thought were a THIRD iron to be released, is simply the i-e1 WITHOUT the blue paintfill. Wow.... wish PING had left them clean looking like that. Stunner of a club without the blue.
[/quote]Totally agree. The shot of the whole set, no blue, looks really good.

Totally agree with you. When I saw the pic of the whole set I was drooling. And then I saw the picture of the 7 iron back with the blue and I am unsure now. Was thinking about buying i25s but when I hear about ie-1 I was hesitant. Once they actually introduce the new irons will the still sell the remaining i25s or ping won't ship them at all once they announce the new one?

If these are legit pics ... I don't think the ie's look that bad. They are subtle, yet have a classic look to them. At the same time, I find myself preferring the G30's. I'm sure the blues are the same, but the ie's look pastel and I'm not a fan of that.

I hope the actual blue looks better than the picture that was posted.
[/quote]

I'm thinking it follows the same blue of the G30 and will be a little darker. If so, I like 'em. I'm just interested to see what golfer they are aimed at.

More like Rosie O Donnell and Rosie O Donnell had a baby. OK maybe not that bad, but this is so sad. I20, I25, S55 were so legendary, and stuck to the Ping roots. This reminds me of TM and Callaway and tricked up specs and tricked up designs.

That being said, I'm sure Ping knows what they are doing, and they must need to play into the mass/mainstream marketing to keep up with sales? You gotta do what you gotta do.

Keep me out of it though.

Is this the first iron released since Ping lost some of their design team to PXG?

If so, maybe those defections hurt more than a little.

Funny, I remember the same type of negitivitey towards the I25's when they were released. One thing I can see, which is really important to me is that it seems like the short irons may flight a bit lower. Thats what I'm hoping. Otherwise I'll just get the 4, 5, and 6 then call it a day.

I really could give a good doody about what the backs of the club look like. I don't see that when addressing the ball. I just care about how they perfom and feel, turf unteraction, those things.
