Sign up Closed: PING S159 Wedges

Would love to test these against my Cleveland wedges for sure. 

These look so clean. Opting out of this one though because my wedge game is atrocious. Really looking forward to seeing the tester reviews 

 

Excited to see what a 2-wedge set up looks like - 54 and 58 sounds more versatile and less in the bag than the current 52, 56, 60. I use the 56 90% of the time, so the 52 and 60 seem redundant, and would rather have one less club for weight, or the option for a driving iron or a persimmon wood for fun!

 

My sm7s are getting ready to be replaced… I would be normally inclined to stay on that Vokey train but I did really enjoy the glide 2.0 back in the day so would love to consider these!  
 

That was an awesome meeting! Thanks for setting that up.  Was a ton of fun. I think like Viktor I am steep - need that T grind lol

So when I bought mine I used their wedge selector charts and although iam adamant about never buying before trying I had hit one and liked the feel bit when I got mine they were absolutely perfect!! My divots are perfect and on bunker shots we have alot of heavy wet sand and they glide well thru it. I couldn't have had them come any better for my game

Another great test to start the season!

What a great test this will be….Ping has created an awesome wedge in the sI59!  For those chosen, I bet these will be game changers.  Going to try the App for fun to see what the static fit says.  Looking forward to seeing and following. 

Looks like folks are jumping on Ping Fitting App…tried it as well.  Was a fun exercise and a good reference that pretty much confirmed what I had figured using their fitting guide. 

I would love to get these, either way I will be going with these wedges this year.

My Webfit results

An odd loft mix compared to my new Cleveland CBX zipcores, maybe testing will sort that out. Good luck all, the testing lineup has been pretty strong so far.

Awesome opportunity! Excited to read people’s reviews. I just got two s159’s and I love them.

These wedges have been the ones I was considering shelving the vokeys to try. The tech sounds great and they look awesome.  What a great testing opportunity!

Same here, I've been wanting to branch out and find the best clubs for me that do the job regardless of brand. And I've never hit anything PING. 

I liked the Ping Glide wedges, so I hope to get to try these out.

These wedges look legit and I would love to give them a try!

These wedges look great. I have been eyeing these for a while.  I would love to try them around the greens since depending on the criteria it picks an E or T grind.   I think they would give my current Vokey gamers a run for their money.  

The App is interesting though, it’s a bit more detailed than the Titleist inputs.   Interestingly it doesn’t give specific shaft choices and weight etc.  Also the gapping results are interesting.  I have always used a 52.  May be that’s a mistake…

i will have to check these out at the store.

 

Have been playing Vokey wedges for years.  Really excited to switch over to Ping to match my new blueprint irons.

 

 

Would love to test this wedges, looking forward to it. Bought a new set of Raw Jaws wedges two months ago but not happy with them

 

 

As a lifelong PING iron player, I'd enjoy this opportunity.

It'd make an AMAZING birthday present for me to have the chance to review these beautiful wedges 

The Webfit tool is a lot of fun, been messing around with it today. Going back and forth on turf conditions, can’t decide between firm or varies. Getting B & E grinds or S & E grinds, respectively. 

Have S grinds currently on my Indis, but E grind showing up for both definitely stands out, plus its unique shape. Might have to try a 60° E grind down the road.

Good luck everyone!

I’m not finding the Webfit app, does anyone have a link to it?

I'm a massive fan of my glide 4.0's, so I'm super excited to see how these match up! I'm currently using 50 S, 54 E, 58 E and love them, but I do sometimes dig too much with my 58 if the ground gets too soft. In all other scenarios it's great, and there's some attachment to the eye2 shape since I learned how to play on Eye2 BeCu's.

I'm definitely interested to see if some of the other grinds would let me retain the flexibility and greatness in sand that the E grind/shape has while mitigating some of my digging mistakes in unfavorable conditions. The fitting app does suggest S/H grinds across the board though so maybe there's hope for me yet!
