Ping Owners Thread - Forgiving and Lasting

We have a TM, Titty, Mizzy and Cleavage thread...I wonder if there are Ping fans in GR? I don't see many on our golf outings so far.

Hallmarks of any Ping club: Very forgiving, simple design yet have loads of technology and you know the make is very good. Using a grey looking, proprietary steel composition, Ping produces some of the best cast steel irons in the market. These clubs last a long time. Last but not least, Ping 2nd hand clubs holds their value quite well.

U selling the S57 and getting another Ping? Can check the color code for your S57 if selling?

Bro 4dtoto...you're the real mccoy! What's your take of the S57? Pros/Cons? Did you try it with AWT before changing to KBS?

I have it fitted and most Asians will be using the red colour dots. Use the AWT shafts but find that the ball launch is a bit high to my liking and too much vibrations. After using the KBS shafts, ball flights is nice and firm. However, if you are very consistence with the distance and ball striking, you can attack the PIN with the second shots. There is not much roll on the S57. But if you are looking for extra distance by the ball rolling a few more meters, than I am afraid you will be disppointed. Overall, it is a very nice club and i notice that other brands bwer club even though it is forged are following the Ping by using the insert, eg Titliest AP2.

Wow, good leh... forming two flights soon..

My G15 came today!!

Wow for a used club, its look like brand new!

wow , nice, where you got it from ?

got it off ebay, for a fraction of the price i would have to pay if i got it locally.

Salty Dog: G15 irons (5-S), Ping Tour W wedge 60*

Wanted to throw it in the pond the first month i used it after switching from Mizuno MP-57. After 3 months, starting to like it. I'm getting back to my old distance and more, surprise that my 7 iron can hit 150m. And yes, there is not much roll on the G15 which is good for distance control when you attack the green. I'm not changing my G15 anytime soon.

Good resale value for Ping because it is damn expensive to buy as new.

bro salty dog,
good to know that your 7 iron so far lei..brad doing a good job on you
just for info, the g15 has stronger loft as compared to the mp57

example 7 iron:
ping g15 = loft 32*
mp57 = loft 35*

so i would not be surprised if you are 1 club longer when u compare g15 with mp57.
only issue to consider is the gap from PW to your SW may be too big.

G15 PW = 45*
MP57 PW = 47*

Hi bro,

You are full time monitoring the forum or what?

Yes, the loft on the Ping is much stronger. That's why i invested in a gap wedge in between PW and SW too.

You can make your Muira stronger too since it is forged.

OT liao.
What to do...the "curse" of technology?!
Can get online in office, at home, on mobile.......
