Sign up Closed: PING S159 Wedges

The WebFit App was extremely user friendly, I will definetely use this in the future.

I hope the wedges perform as well as they look!

I am stoked to read about this. This is the year I upgrade my wedges. I upgraded irons & driver the last two years. Good luck to everyone signing up! 

Good luck to all! These wedges look amazing, would love to give them a go and provide some good feedback. 

These wedges look awesome.

Super stoked! These would be an awesome replacement for the oldest clubs in my bag. 

Would love to offer a high handicapper point of view as someone who's goal is to get out more frequently and take the game more seriously this year.  Currently have a pair of ORLIMAR SOS WEDGES that I cannot wait to upgrade this spring. 

looking for a new set of wedges and have considered the Ping wedges, would love to test these out 

Good luck to all that apply and I'm hoping I get a chance to test these wedges. I currently play the glide 4.0 and love them, but these new wedges look amazing!

 

GolfSpy, 

Looking forward to the opportunity to test these out. I've been playing my Vokey SM9s for the past few weeks and very interested to see how these stack up. Feel free to reach out with any questions or a conversation.

C’mon freshie grooves!

Definitely excited to give this a shot, been using a set of the Kirkland wedges for the past 6 months which are surprisingly good but always looking for something new to improve my game.

Currently using the old Glides in the midnight finish 50, 54, 58 all S. Enjoy them but intrigued by these for sure.

 

Would love to try these against my current Cleveland gamers.

 

although these are the results of the ping web fit, i currently have, and absolutely love my glide 2.0 56 ES grind, it has something akin to an extra half groove on the bottom of the face which helps immensely out of the rough, so much so that although I am looking to replace my current line up of 50 / 56 / 60 to 50 / 54 / 58.....I would prefer to override the fit on the 54 12 S, to the E grind, as well as on the 58......so E grind for me if I am so lucky to have a chance at this opportunity.  

I currently game the Ping i200s, nothing but great things to say other than a few of the plastic neck ferals have loosened / broken over time and that as technology / clubs have changed degrees, my club distances are a tad dated.  I will be testing out the i230 power specs and the brand new i530's that were just announced. 

I am also stuck with the age old question of W and UW vs W and 50 degree S159....so I will be testing this out as well. 

Lastly, although my activity on this site is not as high, I am on it often looking at all the new equipment, reading articles and following along.....

I will def post more so I can get involved more and give myself a realistic chance of becoming a tester.....

for example, I am in a G425 LST, which for 100 mph swing speed, is just a bit of a reach, my best drives are amazing, howerever, they are 1-2 per round.  I am most likely a prime candidate for the G430 Max or new 4k Max which would help out more my average drives. 

 

Either way, I greatly appreciate you guys, and if selected am more than happy to discuss the pro / cons of the S159 from full approaches of 75 - 105 yards, 1/2 and 1/4 shots, all kinds of shots around the greens including short - sided pins from rough, sand, tight fairway, normal fairway to little flops to bump and runs, and the occasional bounce check....haha.....once every 2-3 rounds, esp with my very old Glide 2.0..........

 

Peace and thank you for all your great work!  

The PING Wedge Fitting app was so easy to use! For someone like myself, who has gotten into golf semi-recently, I have never taken the time to learn the difference between the different wedge grinds and their advantages. Living in Salt Lake City, I have a need for a grind that is playable in firm and dry conditions and this app made it so simple to determine the H grind as the best option for dry turf. The gapping results page was also fascinating! I will normally carry a half PW about 150 (living at 4500 feet of elevation) and have always struggled from the 120-150 range because of poor wedge selection and gapping, but now PING has made it much easier to try to fix this problem.

Just fitted for and purchased the i525.  A big upgrade from my i10s.  Now for some new wedges!

Looks like a great opportunity! I've never tried Ping wedges, but I'd love to give'em a swing!

Really cool stuff. Super helpful for people trying to better understand grinds/bounce and pick clubs that work best for them. A lot of this stuff can be very confusing so really enjoy these insights for such a quick survey. BOL to everyone!

Would love a new look around the greens and 120yds in. Been on the struggle bus a couple years now!

Have actually been looking at the ping wedges. Love their drivers so looking to try all they have to offer!

To be 100% honest I've played their irons and there drivers at different times in my life and I always had a "dead" feeling from the wedges BUT NOT these!!! They check all the boxes for me and look great at address

I almost went with the Ping wedges because I play most rounds early in the morning when it’s still wet, so I wanted wedges that performed well in those conditions. It would be an honor to be able to test these wedges against my current set of Vokey SM9s. 

I haven't tried Ping wedges in a while and am in the market for new wedges. I'd love to test these. Thanks!
