It has been a few years, but we are very happy to have PING golf clubs back as part of our Forum Member Testing! The PING s159 are the newest wedges from PING; however, it is not just new wedges that PING is excited about for this testing opportunity. They have also released their new WebFit App that aims to simplify the often confusing wedge grind dilemma.

PING s159 Wedge Features:

The s159 wedges are now offered in six different grind options, with two brand new grinds introduced for this series (the B and H grinds). As PING worked closely with their tour professionals on an updated design and look which would appeal to more golfers.

PING has included their Friction Face that combines face blast and their optimized precision-milled grooves for what they claim is "the launch and spin control to play score-lowering shots from every distance." Add in appropriately spaced MicroMax grooves depending on the loft; these wedges are packed full of technology.

All of their loft and grind combinations have been made available in two different finishes: The Hydropearl 2.0 Chrome and Midnight.

The WebFit Wedge App:

A simple step-by-step questionnaire based on what their wedge experts use to identify the best grinds and options for their tour pros, the WebFit app aims to simplify and find the best grinds and lofts for your game.
The entire process takes only a few minutes and provides several options that best suit your answers, making the choice of knowing what grind should work for you a whole lot simpler!

About The Testing Opportunity:

Four golfers will be selected to test, review, and keep a set of PING s159 wedges. Testers will go through the new PING WebFit Wedge App and then discuss their recommended specifications with a PING representative to dial in their specifications.

Love my Vokeys but they are definitely in need of an upgrade. After adding a Ping driver to the bag I'd love to see how their wedges perform. Based on the suggestions from the app, I'd be looking st the H grind as I almost never take a full swing with a wedge.

I've been using Callaway for a while. My nephew Luke List gave me the Ping G 430 driver a couple months ago and I love it. I'm sure the Ping wedge will work just as well for me.

I was really impressed with the online wedge fitter. I also tried out PINGs whole bag online fitter and thought it was both informative and, at the same time, trying to get you to buy the their most expensive product. It would be really cool to be able to toggle the "pool" of clubs which you could be fit for. For us more budget players it would be nice to know what old models fit our style. I got fit for the H grind which I think is a great fit.

This is going to be a fantastic one. I put these in play this week and have already fallen in love, they are fantastic.   And the Web Fit app is tremendous.  I think it's the most comprehensive online fitting app I've seen from any OEM. 

The web fit is so good, much easier than Vokey! Best of luck to all that apply and hug shout out to Ping and MGS for this awesome opportunity! Best of luck to all applicants!

I doubt I'll get pulled for this, and it will be very disappointing given how impressed I was with the Forged Pro wedges. Having only looked at pictures online, I do love the look of the S159's. If I did get picked for this there would definitely be a wedge title fight between these and the SM10's, Trackman and course results, of course.

This is a cool opportunity. I'm currently playing Glide Forged Pro Raw wedges and love them. I'm not sure these could be better but it would be interesting to try them!

Should he a great test! Excited to see PING putting more energy into the wedge game (outside of the Chipr). I’ve been staying loyal to my old Vokeys for a long time, but maybe this is the time to change my ways.
