Ping i59

[PhlashPhace]

Looks photoshopped to me.  At best it would be a replacement for the Blueprint but it looks like they photoshopped i59 on a blueprint and moved the Forged logo.

PING i59 iron spy image I found in Insta and Reddit. Looks amazing!

It would take a lot more Photoshop than that.

Of course this leaks after I pull the trigger on a new set......................

Like this one?

[GarretG]

These look really nice. Lot of subtle tech.

I thought the same thing about the photo, but I inverted the colours, and it seems legit.

 

That said, the weight screw not being flush is not right. That's just not going to happen. Also, the "forged" logo doesn't have the normal anvil.

 

If this is the body shape, I'd expect this isn't "final".

tinfoil cap time ...... did Ping allow this photo to leak so people would quit ordering i210s that are months behind?

Thats a really good question, since I placed my order for 210’s yesterday and don’t expect them until early spring. Looks like this i59 photo is more oriented to BP or iBlade than 210 to me.

I currently game the i500s and was going to wait and see what Ping drops in 2021. But, I just bought a brand new set of i210s, which you cant go wrong with lol. I’m just curious to see the irons that drop. Are those pics legit?

[ALIF]

If those pics are legit I will sell my i210's and get these.

Yup

That’s got to be the i210 replacement. Ping doesn’t release anything until it is improves upon i210...especially with all the wins and the cult following. 

[SikhGolfer]

These look beautiful. Can't wait for new irons in 2021

I don't disagree. But, they're a company and they're a business. They are out to make money. And they will release their new rendition of whatever irons are to be released. I didn't hit I210 but i200 were very nice.

"PING" forgot to put their brand name on the back of the club 😅 Come on guys..

 

EDIT: Sorry guys, im the stupid one. I have never noticed that the i200/210 and i500 only have the "PING"brand name on the hosel (and I even play the i200)😶

 

All Ping irons back to the iBlade except Blueprint are branded on the hosel. There maybe even more but who’s checking.

Yeah, more than likely mine. I am still looking for that elusive iron that can stop my early extension and lack of divot. 

If you find it, won't you please let me know?  If I take a divot, it's because I've caught it heavy...

[WarEagleGolf]

Y'all are bad people leaking fake photos of irons I want.  

 

😒

 

But seriously, are those pics of the i59 real?  Doesn't seem too far fetched of a design,  but you guys are just ninjas with the photoshop.  

 

 

[awtryau89]

I will for sure admit I am wrong but those are fake.

This is why we can't have nice things...

 

Tracking PING releases is like following Auburn coaching search.  Messes with my emotions.

[alpineto]

If these are coming I'll be all over them , really digging the look of that iron in the pic 

 

hey ping start stocking the Nippon modus in the 115 & 120 stock shaft options .

[karstens_ghost]

Interesting that it's been left up here for days now. Either:

 

- It's real and Ping don't care

- It's fake, and we're all suckers

- It's so far from production, it won't look like this at the end

 

Based on the missing emblem on the "Forged" trademark, I'm going with at least a partial fake, or an early prototype.

Feel stupid for looking at this and wondering as well...but the i500 doesnt have the trademark logo on the front if forged either...and ping on the hosel  with the color code at the beginning is correct...plus, the angle of the shadow matches the back perfectly according to my protractor ..lol

If they are real photos and Ping didn't want them out, they would be taken down.

 

If Ping leaked the photos, that would be different than in the past, where they have a staffer "accidentally" get his bag photographed.

 

If they are just outright photoshops, they remain on sites like this.

 

 

[doublehans]

If those are fakes, it's a great job!

 

They look a bit short heel to toe to be an iblade replacement (and way too short to be a i210 replacement). Looks more in the blueprint ballpark size wise.

 

At best, it would be ping taking the iblade back to s series size. That said, if ping could get iblade forgiveness in a s55 package that would be interesting. The main selling point of the iblade over the s55 was that the iblade was much more forgiving than s55, more like i200 level forgiveness, but in a slimmer, less offset package than the I series; tho part of the tradeoff was that iblade was bigger than the s series. So if Ping could do that same iblade forgiveness in an even smaller s series type package, I'd be intrigued. 

 

All that said, with the blueprint out there does ping really need another iron smaller than the current iblade? Probably not a need even if it might be a want.

 

Photo angles can be deceiving of course and maybe its not as small as it looks.

To my eye, the ping photo is definitely a photoshop of one of these irons. If not, then it will be awesome because those Nike irons were amazing.
