Interesting move Jaster :shock: I knew from the whispers that they would be Pings but not the S59's. What convinced you to go this way :?:

This is a comparison with my current 690mbs....look good 8)

Had a hit for 9 holes this afternoon with Goughy and first impressions are important...well these are sweet 8) They appear to be a half a club longer than the 690mbs and also hit the club a fraction higher which is good as I always felt the PXs hit a little low :(

Best shot was a 200m 4 iron on the 18th, nearly hit the flag and pulled up about 20ft behind the PIN :wink:

I wanted to stay with the look of a blade but needed more durability, the 690s are wearing way too much for my liking after 6 months off use :cry: so I wanted something that was atleast going to last me a full season, hard to beat PINGs in this regard :P
I also love the industrial look of these irons, they look like a weapon that was made to be hit :!:

do my eyes deceive me??? the s59s are acutally SMALLER than the MBs??? :shock:

no wonder I wasn't too keen last wednesday...

interesting shaft...6.3s...must have got these off some pro???

They are smaller than the 690mbs 8) They are actually softer than the 690mbs also...true story :shock:

The 6.3s are a custom job (obviously) from my good friend Geoff in the US, they are RIFLE 6.5s softstepped once to make 6.3 I believe.

Why did you get a ladies set?
Real men need a 2 iron.

So my PING Eye 2 1 iron that I got off Terry that is actually bent to 15° and I hit 230m straight doesn't count? :wink: 8) :lol:

I think of all the Ping irons i've seen these would be the best looking.

saw the selection in the Ping fitting center at the pro shop yesterday..man there were some ugly looking irons in there :smt078

Jaster,

Looks like a great set. Looking forward to a long term review.

When I saw the title of the thread couldn't help but sing along to the words... hopefully I'll get the song out of my head so that I can get on with stuff today!

Cheers,
Terence

well...the OS versions of the i3 and i3+ didn't look appealing, but nothing wrong IMO with the blade versions... :D


I saw the DOC last sunday - that is one ugly looking putter!!!

Jaster, you must of had these for awhile :P Look at all the wear on the heals from all your shanked shots :wink: :D

Nice looking set Pal 8)

don't waste your time mate. I played a couple of rounds with a mate that had one, it was the biggest piece of crap putter ..... wayyyyyyy to big :shock:

No match for a Scotty in my humble opinion :wink:

got a ping putter in the bag for this afternoon...wonder if it'll make it thru to the end of the week!!! :lol:

the DOC...looks like it would fall off the shaft at any time... :roll:

jaster

And then I'll get another set of high quality rare irons that don't come in Left Handed!!!! :P :P :twisted: :P :P

But they won't be Pings!!!!!!! :twisted: :wink:

It's cool, at least the PINGS take less shots :lol:

I actually have heard quite a few good things about it, and I think for the price I can get it for (trade) it might be worth a shot :oops: :wink:

Just looked a little dirty to me mate, have you seen the pictures on BSG with them all chromed up? They look great but I'm worried about the effect on durabilty.
