Nothing, I will have 2 sets and will sell the other.  I just like equipment and buy/sell/trade stuff, but the set works, so will keep the cycle going, until the next time.

I was kind of having a chuckle thinking 4 sets what the ??? Who  and why would one have 4 sets? Then I started thinking back on my buy/sell/trading days and remember having 4 sets of the same clubs multiple times.  Miss those days:) 

 

I had pristine set of i210's with steelfibers, was only using the 8-Uw,  so figured might as well sell off the  set as I wasn't using the 4 5 6 7.  Now with the prices of used irons going crazy and the popularity of the i210's finding something similar to what I had is not that cheap or easy to find.  Great idea having a spare or 2. 

 

With the   new models of the Ping i's possibly having a multi material  hollow cavity, a pristine set or 2 of 210's might be a great investment🤑

The price of new retail irons is a joke, more so up here.  I got this second set 4-W for $720 cdn.  I was happy paying $600 last fall for a 6-UW...  I also have a set of the '09 Rac TP's coming Monday ($350 cdn with PXi 6.5s), so ya know, need to have more iron sets.  Although this will only put me back to 7.

I had them and moved to the new T100’s and couldn’t be happier. They are solid for sure. But I feel like they are a bit chunky/clicky. Prefer a Forged iron and the T100 has better turf interaction in my opinion. But they are a solid iron for sure.

I've never understood when someone says they prefer a forged iron, and then say they play something that only has a forged face or some other components with the rest welded rather than a true forged CB or blade.

I guess for me, I’ve always found the feeling of the AP2 or T100 to be soft forged feel and nice off the face rather than a cast club. While not having to play a true blade to get that feeling. I’ve played the P770 as well and it was very hot at times. You’d get a random ball to fly 10-15 yards longer than normal which was frustrating. I210 is nice, but they also look like a game improvement iron to me which I didn’t like.

Like u said absolute joke what Golf Town is asking these days.  That's a great price for your 4-w i210's , eBay or local? Deal on those TP's as well, great shafts to boot. Looks like u have found some deals.  Always nice to have some spares.  A few years ago I had 35 sets, down to 7 as well, plus a few  partial sets and a  few older sets and numerous head sets awaiting shafts.  Need me some i210's thou. 😀

Not sure if anyone mentioned this but I read like 6 pages and figured I’d just ask lol 

 

how is the turf interaction? I assume not like a blade, but any description or comparison would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I won't deny this at all (I consider them players GI).  For years I was totally against all things Ping as I didn't like the look or feel of their clubs.  I've now had each driver (of varying models) from the G30 on (not the 425 yet), a total fan boy of the i20s and will likely get another set for the hell of it and ardent i210 defender.

A lot of it with Ping will come down to what conditions you play in and your swing style.  I'm a digger and play in softer conditions in Ontario and the East Coast, so the higher bounce works with my swing.

I've had the i20, i25, still have the ie1 and play with the i200. I've never tried the i210 cause the i200 work very well for me. Reading this and other threads about the i210 makes me want to get a set just to try them out.

Kind of in the same boat. For years I wasn’t a Ping fan. Now I have the g425 3 wood and hybrid both in the bag and really love their lineup they have out. Great stuff.
