If you strike the ball well but don't want to pay a fortune for a set, these are the best bargain on Ebay. These clubs can be great for you if you buy the right ones fit for you. Ping helps to make this easier, especially for you folks buying on Ebay, and not in a store. I did the static fit on Ping.com and previously had a local professional fit me dynamically. Because of this, I found the perfect match for me and I'm not afraid to buy them online. The website even tells you which shaft to go with if you know how far you typically hit your 6 iron. I found that by working on tempo and not trying to kill the ball, I am able to gain considerable distance and accuracy over my old irons (Titleist DCI 990) just by using these clubs and slowing it down a bit. When you buy the proper length and lie, you will be amazed at how much better you strike the ball. My point is this; get a solid fitting in before you buy any irons. They might be a good deal, but there is a reason Ping fits you to the club. About the Ping irons. These irons play well. I found it easy to shape shots from right to left. It was a bit more difficult left to right, but I've never been able to do that well anyhow. Because I was able to let the club hit the ball and control my tempo better, the ball flight is consistent and the carry is, too. My accuracy has increased dramatically, as well. Especially from the 8 iron down to the pitching wedge. The shot trajectory is much higher and softer landing with these and I don't get a lot of roll. Again, especially from the 8 iron down. I attribute a lot of the improvements to the change in my tempo, but I give the Pings the credit for helping me change the tempo of my swing and really feel what I am doing with the shot more than that of other irons I have hit. Mishits are not so bad either. You really have to shank the ball or leave the clubface open to mess a shot up with these. Expect to pay more for the various graphite shafts. The Ping custom WRX clubs are usually more as well. If you find a set of Pingss with a matching sand wedge, jump on them because the sand wedges are hard to find individually. A lot of times, the owners name has been applied to the club. I found you can get this off easily with acetone and light sandpaper if it is screened in and not etched. You might ask the seller when this is listed this way. In addition, if you are not very good at the long irons (2,3, and 4) you may want to look at the G5 hybrids. I have them too. If you hit the ball hard, but typically slice or hook, the hybrids dramatically reduce the mishit effect. Be careful when bidding. There are some demo clubs floating around out there. Check with the seller for serial numbers as all Ping consumer clubs have them. Pay attention to feedback scores. This is Ebay's barometer of service. I swear by the feedback system. I hope you found this info helpful.Read full review
great older clubs, the ball goes further than my nike clubs I am using now, however the trajectory control is not as easy or controlable (some of which is due to them just being new to me) I love the feel at contact and the loft of the wedge (it seems to be about a 52 degree) instead of the typical 45-47degree of stock PW. Absolutely love the reaction of people when they hit their new AP1's, nike VR, callaway X-series, and taylormade tour burner; then i hit these and I am longer than they are with the same club. My normal 8 iron is 135-140. With these Pings its 145-150.
The Ping Eye 2 golf clubs were in great condition. In my opinion, they were better than described in the sales description. The grips are in playable condition, there are no pre-required steps needed to be able to put these clubs to use as soon as possible. The finish on the heads are very presentable. The feel of the clubs make it easy to visualize the golf ball following the desired flight along the course. I am looking forward to many years of enjoyable golf with these clubs.
I have not been able to play golf for about 10 years due to disability. I love the game and just had to try again even if it was just to hit a half bucket of balls on the range. I had used the ping irons a few times before I got sick and said then I would own a set one day (dream set). Long story short I found these online and have been able to use them a few times. They are so sweet you really don't feel the ball when you do your part and hit it right. The set was in fantastic condition and just as good as a new set. The eye2 irons have been a mainstay in golf for many years for a reason, they work to make your game better! These irons must have one of the biggest sweet spots in the game, even if you shoot a bad score you will still have that feeling that you cant wait till the next time you can go back and hit that perfect ball.Read full review
These Ping eye plus irons with graphite shafts are beautiful. I have played numerous other clubs since i had my first set of these iron over 25 years ago (most recently Callaway Diablo Edges). Going back to these felt like finding a long lost friend. They are simple rugged and do the job that all the newer irons try to do. The only adjustment you have to make is that the the lofts are not as strong as the newer irons....but you know what...its nice to know that a seven iron is what a seven iron is (was) supposed to be, not a seven iron with a "9" on it making you think you are better than you are. Get a set and you will not be dissapointed. I found my origianl measurements, found my original color code and paid a quarter of what a new set of irons would cost. On other thing....its nice to get a set at includes a 3 and 4 iron....some of us still prefer those.Read full review
