Shoots in the 70s

Summary: I recently bought a set of The Ping Zing 2 irons after spending 15 years quietly obsessing over them, (you try talking your parents into buying a new set of clubs when your ten) and I can honestly say they are probably one of the best series of Irons that I can recall playing, better than Mizuno (while mizuno makes great clubs, based on mis hits the Ping Zing 2 plays better)better than Titleist dci series, the 704 cb, the Power circle square two's,(obscure clubs but they're great) or Big Bertha Irons. They're awesome. The first thing I noticed, along with everyone else, is that the ball flight was a lot higher than my previous set, making for softer landings and less shots on the back side of the green. Another aspect I like is the forgivness, The club faces are a lot thicker, almost like the original Big Bertha Irons, with even the worst feeling shot still reaching the target. Another attribute I like is the ability of the Zing 2's to cut through the rough. They don't feel like they get bogged down nearly as much. One of the biggest jokes on the golf world is the concept that technology changes quickly, and that driver/iron set you had is outdated. Truth be told while there are some advancements that improve the game, the technology really peaked about ten years ago. So don't feel like you need to go out and get the latest and greatest every year. Thats what held me up so long, I was trying to sift through the latest technology and advancement when all I needed to do was look on ebay and go back about 15 years. Not only where they cheaper, but they look mean, which totally adds to the confidence factor. Also, on a side note, they are one of the nicest/coolest looking sets of clubs I've ever had, you can't miss them on the range. If they still choose to make an issue of the way they look, just show them your score card.
Customer Service: didn't use them

Shoots in the 80s
Model Reviewed: Ping Zing (Orange dot)
Summary: I bought this Zings around 12 years ago and have been shooting +12 every round I play. The irons have given me a high ball flight without sacrificing distance and have improved my game greatly, from shooting in the high 80s to high 70s. I could stick my approaches to the hole with consistency.
After using them for sometime, I decided to change my irons to Callaway and sold these Zings to a friend. Now after 7 years, my Zings are back in my hands since my friend bought a new set of irons, now I am very excited to be reunited with my Zings. Hope to play better again with them.

Summary: I recently picked up a used set of Zings on EBay, and what a value! I have always bought clubs "off the rack" and they never seemed to fit. I bought these clubs, which are 1 degree flat, and have noticed an instant improvement. In addition to the fit, these clubs are very, very forgiving. I've hit a bunch off the toe or heel and they still go fairly straight, but much shorter of course. I've gone from the high 90's to the low 90's with these clubs in a short amount of time.... and I hope to break into the 80's soon.
Customer Service: Haven't used it.
