Ping G15 Irons

Summary:
I've had my set for about a month now so I'm getting used to them pretty well.
I was fitted for these by Ping reps at a tournament and it's the first time I did the fitting thing. Highly recommend this to anyone.

The first thing I noticed about these was the weight. Even with graphite shafts, they were a bit heavier than my old set and I was not sure I'd like that, but as I've played with them, I've found it to be a plus. You know where the head is and what it's doing throughout the swing.

I have no trouble getting the ball up in the air with these clubs, but I find it easy to vary trajectory and shot shape, even though, as game improvement irons, they are not supposed to be as workable as player's irons.

The big thing for me is the accuracy of these irons. I am hitting more greens and getting more reasonable birdie putts than ever before. I also have gained a few yards in distance over my old set. I was hitting the old 7 iron about 145 (150 when I really caught it right). With the G15's my seven is routinely getting 155, and when I really get into it, I've hit it 165.

I'm a 13 handicap, shoot in the 80's with the occasional upper 70's when the stars allign. I've tried several sets of irons over the last couple of years, but I think I have finally found the set for me and hope to be playing these for some time to come.

Customer Service:
Outstanding. I got fitted for these at a demo site by Ping reps. Ordered just the irons I needed (6-PW) directly from Ping. The clubs were delivered several days before the estimated date I was given.

Summary:
I'll start out by saying that my ball striking skills are probably better than anyone else on this board. Second, I can shape the ball with the best of them. I took the G15 out to the range and was hitting the 200 yard sign with routine with the 5 iron. They are a little fat in the sole and I don't like the AWT shaft. If I were you, and thank goodness I'm not, I would get the Z-Z65 shaft. I wouldn't play these but they are solid sticks for the average to above average golfer. I play blades but you should listen to my review because I know what I'm talking about. I'm not some 90's shooting hack.
