Going with the i200's. You'll be happy with the performance!

Yeah, I just can't seem to get them off my ponder list. They're clean, perform well, and the price is great!

 

Plus, when I first picked up golf I told myself I'd be a Ping guy... idk why, just did.

I thought I'd be a Titleist guy. But we'll see how Saturday goes with those MIzuno's.

 

No matter what the T'M's are going.

When I stopped by Golfdom the other day, they had a set of these. Surprisingly, the offset wasn't as pronounced as I expected and the top line was thinner than the photos show.

 

I could play these. I guess this is a prime example of seeing something for yourself before passing judgement.

I'd agree STUDque, except not for a "players iron" categorized club. These to me are somewhere in the middle. Obviously they get a ton of play on the LPGA, and a few Tour players have them in the bag.

Interestingly, while only 3 of their 16 PGA tour staff have a full set of i200 irons, 5 more of the pros have split sets with i200s as one or more of their long irons. That means this week, half of Ping's tour staff had at least one i200 in the bag. Additionally, 3 or 4 have the S55s which are basically the same club. Food for thought!

 

Edit: Just checked, 6 of 11 European tour pros have the i200 in the bag with only one being a mixed set (i200s and S55s)

In addition to the majority of PGA Tour staff using at least 1 i200 iron in their bags, I know that a lot of the PING staffers on the LPGA, LET & European Tour use i200s in one form or another.

Soooooo out of the 5 testers, which of you are planning on taking these into the 2018 season? Based on the reviews, I'm guessing only 2/5 but would love to hear how this progressed.

 

For us eBay sharks, this is starting to get into the time of year that last year's clubs are discounted and may consider pulling the trigger if the price is right.

Well, I won't be gaming them. Or I don't think I will anyways.

 

They are a great product, and I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for a well put together, blend of Players/GI irons. Many players irons features with some help.

 

I haven't decided 100% yet, Guess we will have to see what the updated WITB looks like come May.

I'd also add that these things do everything I want them to. Ping advertised horizontal and vertical control, they exceeded my expectations in this department. The only thing I can not stand is the amount of offset they have, they'd be in my bag for sure if the offset was more iBlade-ish. I'd also probably have my KBS Tour shafts put in them. The Modus 105 is a little light for my liking.

Wasn't a tester, but they'll be in my bag starting this season.

hopefully our conversations helped you decide. I know you were contemplating a few different irons. Now you just need some Stealth wedges.

Yeah, you all definitely helped. Can't wait for warmer weather to finally break them in! And you're right, the 2.0 wedges are on my radar.

These are definitely potential lies we might run across. The interaction off the plate was superb, and I used all 14° of bounce off the grill.
