Ping is known for utilitarian, workman-like equipment and the Ping G15 Irons certainly fit that mold. If the G15 irons were a motor vehicle, it would be a pick up truck. Straight forward and gets the job done with minimal style and sizzle. The first thing you notice is the larger than normal sole on these irons. They are a little on the big side for what I would consider a GI iron.ping g15More on that later. Next, you notice a cavity badge that is sharp but blends and fits in with these gun metal gray clubs. Compared to previous Ping irons lines, this is a ‘flashy’ design but with all things that are Ping, it just seems to work.

The previously mentioned sole is instrumental in helping get the ball in the air quickly as it disperses the MOI evenly across the bottom of the club. This is designed to reduce the total weight of the club and when combined with a thinner face a more forgiving club and higher launching club for mis-hits is possible. These clubs get the job done without a lot of extra bells and whistles which is what some golfers are looking for. If that’s you then you’d be missing out on a solid set of irons if these weren’t on your short list. These irons offer predictable if not unspectacular performance and I would definitely recommend them to a high handicap golfer who is looking to invest in their first ‘new’ set of irons.
