Ping Eye2 irons

Summary:
As someone who was an avid golfer more than 10 years ago, and took a long break from the sport, I was looking for a good forgiving set of irons that I could pick up to get back in the game without breaking the bank. I found my set of used Ping Eye2 irons for $175 at the beginning of the golf season, and have been using them since about April.

It's now August, and I love these clubs. They are extraordinarily forgiving, and most solid contact will produce a good shot.

I doubt these made me a better golfer, but they did help build my confidence back up very quickly and I have enjoyed playing every round with these clubs.

Summary:
I have been playing and playing around with irons for the last 5 years. Started out with some freebee "nomad" irons from my father in law. They got me started but once I hit his Callaway irons, I knew there was something better out there. Went to Cally Hawkeye, the hawkeye VFT - very forgiving, but hit the ball too high and looked like a shovel. Found a set of barely used G10 irons, Better than cally for me. Had them reshafted to Rifle 6.0, even better.

Since them, I have demoed almost every new iron. There was always something that I didnt like, look, feel, price, crappy shaft, etc...

One day on Ebay, found a set of Eye 2 + no + 3-SW black dot (the seller didnt know what he had), and bought them on a whim, reshafted with Rifle 6.0. Long story short - the search is over. These irons are what I have been searching for since I started. The right weight, right feel, right distance, forgiving as can be, but so easy to draw or fade. I have read many reviews of these, and still ask myself over and over, how can a 20 year old iron be this good? Karsten had it figured out, and that is all that matters. The G10s will soon be for sale...

Summary:
I am currently 17 years old and have been playing golf for about 2 years. My first set of clubs were some old talyor made blades that my great uncle gave me. I used them for about 6 months when the junior organiser at my golf club (Pinner Hill, UK) suggested I swap them for some cavity irons. I aggred and I swaped them for a set of Ping Eye 2's (3-SW). From the moment first hit them I loved them.

The clubs are lovely and the steel shafts suit them perfectly. A bad shot is recoverable with these clubs as the hit really well out of the rough. The only club I have a problem with is the PW as I always seem to slice it. The clubs give you so much control and feel. I now can even get backspin out of the rough and even bunkers as the SW is amazing. However you might want to invest in a LW as the SW is not that lofted.

I now easly eat up the other kids with their new grafite irons. Great Clubs!
