Are the new Wedges stealth or chrome?

According to the rep the new wedges will be hydropearl. He also said that Louis Oosthuizen has been testing them and will be in his bag very soon. I'm sure we will start to see the new products showing up in bags in a couple weeks, and as always be launched during the week of The Open.

I like the sound of the i500 being an easier to hit iBlade. Always loved the iBlades, just don't have the ball striking for them.

 

I thought a 6 handicap would be able to play the iBlades.

Turning my bag over and super stoked to find this thread. I'm a 13. The g700 are just too big for me with too much offset, as are the g400. Excited to see what the i210 and i500 look like, hopefully with much less offset and a bit more compact. Almost went with the i200 recently and decided to stick with the CF16 instead for now. Will be interesting to compare!

 

Thanks for the info!!

Karsten....the man of one head one shaft for all is rolling in his grave. What happened to not releasing product unless it surpassed the current line??? I liked it when there was one iron set available. Eye 2... Zing...Zing 2....

 

Pretty soon the club will use artificial intelligence and swing for you....you can just sit in the cart and drink beers :)

 

I didn’t like it when only the Zing iron was available.

 

What a hideous looking and feeling iron.

 

Never claimed to like the iron but liked the premise of focusing on one good product.

I think having 5 good products is better than having one good product. Karsten was a revolutionary in club design, but let's not act like he was perfect. One shaft/one head was a gross misstep on his part.

Found this on the USGA Conforming List

....hmm....

These are going to be absurdly expensive. I wish they were considerably uglier.

I tried them for a minute....other than sound/feel they are very ez tp play....3-pw in wrong specs and grips to boot...that's why my interest in new stix is high!

Do we know if these are hollow or filled with material?

The rep I spoke to said they were hollow. I'm hoping the sound and feel is not the same as G700.

You are right on the G700 are as long as any iron today, but the feel and sound are horrible. Virtually no feel and a annoying metallic click. The Titleist C16 and TMB are hollow body irons but sound good so it can be done.

Yep, those are bad.

not sure why it would be. i200 and iblade are cast

I realize that and I play Ping I's.

 

Reason I question this is because of one of the pictures on Page 1.

 

On the backside heel of the iron, it appears to say FORGED

 

It certainly would be a departure from the basics of the I line but I thinks its the direction Ping needs to go with the product.

 

Also, to compete and appeal to the customer that would normally buy P790s, PXG, they would need to go forged.

 

For Ping to go forged it would certainly get attention.
