Summary: Hello everyone I 1st tried the ping g2 irons about 18 months ago and loved them right away so I found a set for a very good price black dot reguler shaft.to be honest it took me 5 or 6 games to get use to the change from my old set of taylor made burner super steel with stiff riffle shaft.but it was well worth the change I was playing well and more cosistant. I was shooting from 88-92 with the my old clubs and with the pings 76-80. Then I did the worst thing I sold them the reason I joined a golf club at the start of this year 2011 and got myself a brand new set cleveland cg7 black pearl from american golf. What a big mistake I had them for about 5 weeks got rid of them. Got a set of titleist zm blades they where far to hard to hit true shot cosistanly. Then got burner tours great irons hit them well but something I had was gone from my game. So a friend of mines had a spair set of g2 with stiff shafts so he let me try them so so I done a staight swap for the pings for the tm burner tours and its was a blessing my handicap has come down from when I started the club and I've won a monthly medal and came r/up in a few other competition happy days. These clubs are aimed at mid to high handicapers I would say that's true but I disagree u can still shape a shoot with g2 maybe not as good as a blade but it can be done. Anyway if your looking to improve your game and looking for consistancy well its a must you won't find a better club on the market. Their the best game improvement irons ever made.

Shoots in the 80s
Model Reviewed: Ping G2 Irons
Summary: Bought a set of used G2's at golfsmith, still had the white line at the bottom groove of the face (practically new).
Took me 15 practice rounds to get accustomed to the offset and get alligned correctly. Now I love them. They are so straight, it almost seems like they should be illegal (non-conforming). Very soft feel at impact, again hard to believe. The short irons go dead-straight and moderate distance, and the long irons are long and stright. I don't believe these are the best for 10 handicappers and below because I'm not sure you can shape your shots adequetly for that level play. But for anyone over a 10, I think they're magnificant.
Customer Service: Answered my questions even though I am not the 1st owner.

These are good irons for middle handicappers but not for great ballstrikers like me.

Summary: I have been playing with my G2 Irons for several years now. They are the best. I bought the S57 Irons a while back but went back to the G2 Irons. Love my Pings.

Summary: I had been playing with black dot Ping i3 o size irons I bought on Ebay but after recent hip surgery I decided to have a proper fitting done at my local golf shop. Much to my surprise I found that the correct color code for me was not black, but orange (2.25 flat) so I sold the i3's and bought the G2's. Big difference! I'm hitting longer with a slight draw which is no doubt a function of the refitting, but the G2's have a much softer, satisfying feel on well hit shots. They inspire much more confidence and because of that I am hitting the ball more aggressively. I was finally able to break 90 this year and I've been consistently in the 80s ever since. Never underestimate the value of good clubs and a proper fitting!
Customer Service: Not had to use but I've heard nothing but good things about Ping's customer service.

Shoots in the 90s

Summary: I bought black dot irons and woods with 3 tour wedges via the internet a couple of years back. I used to play of a 19 many years ago but have not played regular for a while. Just recently we have got a group together and play once a week. My game is on the improve and I love these clubs, they are sweet, when you make nice contact they hit straight and true and even the duff shots are forgiving. I especially like the feel of the high loft 3/4 irons. I am now looking to fit graphite shafts on the irons and wedges (woods already have em). I am hanging on to these for a while.
