First Look: Ping G20 Irons

G20 Irons

And of course with a new driver and hybrid, there has to be a new iron set right?  The G20′s look to be building on the very successful G15 irons (you’d be surprised how many guys on tour are playing the G15′s even though their bag says Taylormade).

I definitely like the color scheme (super important, right?).  They feature a multi-material badge to provide “solid feel and sound while enhancing distance control”.

The G20 iron also features an “enhanced hosel transition to help capture the ball”.  From what I can tell, it should help the clubhead get through the grass and presumably(?) is meant to address some of the complaints that golfers have about too much offset in GI irons.

Here’s Senior Ping Designer Marty Jertson discussing the new G20 irons:

I’m really excited about the G20 line-up.  I’ve been playing the I10′s since the day they came out and I’ve been looking at moving to the G-series irons for some increased forgiveness.  My birthday is coming up and a set of these irons would make a really nice gift… hint hint…

The entire G20 line-up will be available on Aug 11.
