Nice video of Ping's club building process


Recommended Posts

I was surprised by the way they bend the irons for loft and lie.  For some reason, I thought it was a totally automated process.

Callaway 2023 Big Bertha 3 wood set to 17 degrees

Cobra F9 Speedback 7/8 wood set at 23.5 degrees

This was so cool particularly since I just ordered a set of irons from Ping.  I was also surprised at how labor intense the process is.  I would have thought that they had the lofts and lies on the irons premade and that they were picked from bins by color. I know that all started out as black dots back in the day but never suspected that was still the case.   

Driver: Taylor Made Stealth 2 10.5 Diamana S plus 60  R flex   - 44.25 

Fairways:  Ping G410 5, 7, 9 wood  Alta CB red 65 R flex

Hybrid:  Ping G410  26 degree  Alta CB Red 70 R flex 

Irons: Ping G430  7-PW, 45, 50 Alta CB black 65 soft R flex 

Wedges:  Ping 195 S54, E58

Wedges and irons are - 1/2” and one degree flat 

Putter: Sacks Parente Duke 32.5”

Ball: Titleist Pro VI or Callaway Chrome Soft X ls

 

While not at the same time I was fit for every club in my bag as well as the Pro VI ball. I use the chrome soft x ls on my league course.  It has much softer softer greens than the club that I belong to. 

I’m on a mission to shoot my age - lifetime lowest round is 66 and I’m currently 67.

What I find interesting is that the employees work each or individually or maybe because this was a rush order, we only saw his order being completed. Having seen this, I think their is some work that can be automated but some that just needs a human to grind and blow out dirt or to perfectly weigh each item.
