I have a tiny bit of info about the Ping G430 and i230 irons

[Hook DeLoft]

The blade length on each iron is slightly shorter than the previous models.  The G430 launches higher than the G425, so the lofts will be 1 or 2 degrees stronger.  The i230 is scheduled to be released in November.  The G430 is scheduled to be released in the first quarter of next year.  It looks like the G430 will stick with a black and grey/silver color scheme.  The last is based on a picture, so may not be completely accurate.  Oh, almost forgot.  The crossover long iron replacements will have adjustable hosels.

Told you it was a tiny bit.

The i230 or whatever iteration the i525 is in 2024 would be the only irons that could potentially kick a mizuno iron out of my bag.

The i59 (not sure where in the naming convention they fit) were money in my fitting. If I wasn't personally concerned with distance dispersion, I would probably be waiting for them instead of my 223's. Tomorrow can't come soon enough!!!

Super excited for the i230 launch. Currently playing i200 and debating whether ill fit for i230 or Mizuno pro 225 for next year. Also playing G400 driver, which I love, but may step into G430 driver next year too.... we'll see

Alex Etches has posted a review of the 430 irons on youtube.  I'm not too keen on the looks, but they might look better in hand.

The lofts on the G430s  are ridiculous - even for game improvers.   41* PW means they have had  to include two 'utility' wedges to cover the 'gap'.  6i @25.5* is a full degree stronger than the G425 (presumably   at  'standard' lofts never mind power spec), a degree and a  half stronger than the i525s and 4* stronger than my i210s.  I  know these are (super) game improvement irons but surely bending them that straight is sending the wrong message to new (especially young)  golfers.
