Rchang Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I’m like the window shopper. Will go to Golf Galaxy and play around with clubs. The Ping G410 are real deal. I compared them to the Srixon 585 (loved the look, could shape left or right, short distance though) and Callaway Apex (ball rockets off, spraying it all over the place). The G410 were good distances with very consistent ball flight and dispersion. Just upgraded driver, wedge and putter, so will shelve these ideas until maybe next year Quote WITB TS2 10.5 M2 3HL Mavrik Max 5W Titleist 818 4 hybrid Mizuno JPX921 HMP 5-Gap Mizuno S19 56 Maltby TSW 60 Bobby Grace Shiloh putter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently went through a rather long process of deciding on new irons - including two iron fittings. I hit Mizuno, Callaway, Taylormade, PING, and KZG. GI and SGI category irons best match my game. It was down to the Mizuno JPX900 or PING G410. Having played PE2's for over 30 years gave the nod to a company whose product had treated me so well for such a long time. It's been said PING is one of only a few major companies that cares more about making golfers better than making money. I'm really liking the G410's and feel I made the best decision. Good luck with the search. Hehe, I read how you tested every different iron known to man , then decided on the ping 410’s.., and I though, hmm, seems fair... then I looked at your sig and saw that every stick in your bag is a Ping... a little biased in your selection possibly? and don’t get me wrong, I love my LST... fixyurdivot 1 Quote TSr2 on tensi blue stiff Speedzone 3-wood on Tensi blue S Epic Max 5 and 7 woods on HZRDUS Reg flex Paradym 9 wood on HZRDUS reg flex P770 / P790 combo set on Ventus R-6 shafts 6-AW T22 Denim Copper 54°, 58° on Kinetic X Trajectory ER3 or, E.A.S. #4 (“Fang” or “Adele”) ProV1x, or, Maxfli Tour X .Org 14 cart bag Adidas Tour 360 , or Sketcher shoes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I did test a bunch, it's not even a fraction of every iron available... and I'm only talking the well known brands. It's both great and overwhelming we have so many options these days. I openly admitted it was the 30+ year marriage to my PE2's that gave the nod to the G410's over the Mizuno's. The G410 driver was a bonus (THANKS AGAIN MGS!!), and, not wanting to break up perfect match, a used G400 3w seemed appropriate . sirchunksalot and Sluggo42 1 1 Quote G410 Plus, 9 Degree Driver G400 SFT, 16 Degree 3w G400 SFT, 19 Degree 5w ZX5 Irons 4-AW Glide 2.0 56 Degree SW (removed from double secret probation ) ER5v Putter (Evnroll ER5v Official Review) AI-One Milled Seven T CH (Currently Under Product Test) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jddaigneault Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Anyone preorder the new p790s? I’ve hit them a few times, and must say they are amazing irons. The distance and forgiveness is insane! I’m not sure I feel too much of a difference with the new vss technology in the shaft, but that could just be me. The weight of the head is great, it feels like you can identify where the club head is throughout the swing, which is great for working the ball. Somehow hit a 233 yard 7 iron on the gcquad...stupid long.

tdkrod Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I’ve been playing the 919 Hot Metal with the flihi 5 & 6 hybrid. Really like them. Handicap is 18, played about 10 rounds with them, several in the 80’s. Been playing about 2 years. Came from ping g’s which I liked, these are more forgiving and I love the wedges.

Hobocreek Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 I’ve been playing Ping i irons for a few years and have just started looking for a change so borrowed a mixed set of Mizuno 919 hot metal and 919 forged. I love them but the gap between the 7 and 8 iron is just too big. I like the looks of the forged better but the hot metal suit my game better.

You pretty much need two 7 irons to blend those irons or get them bent to cut down the gap. Im a bit biased but I liked the g400 last year and finally broke down and got the g410 this year. Callaway apex were surprisingly forgiving in the hands of this 14ish handicap followed next by the hot metal. I should have asked to hit the 919 forged during my fitting but I already hit 5 different heads and then needed to confirm shafts.

Hook DeLoft Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 I just ordered Mizuno MP20 HMBs. I hit all the new MPs, the JPX919 Forged, and the Hot Metals. I also hit the Ping G410s and the Titleist T100, T200 and T300. The 4 forged Mizunos felt the best to me. The MP 20 muscle back wasn't forgiving enough for my skill level. The MMC, HMB and 919 Forged were pretty much the same on good swings with the MMC sounding and feeling worse on bad swings. I like the look of the HMBs more than the 919s, so I went with them.
