Ping G20 Irons for All Golfers

According to Ping Golf, with the new G20 irons in your bag, you’ll hit the ball long but with enhanced distance control. Perimeter weighting and a deep cavity design, the 17-4 stainless steel heads are highly forgiving. An elastomer cavity badge provides solid feel and sound while enhancing distance control. Compared with its predecessor G15, Ping G20 Irons have club faces with darker finish that helps reduce glare for all golfers. The club head also had more of a satin finish and not as “rough” as the previous versions. In addition, Ping has done a great job of hiding the wide sole at address, providing a clean, thin look that resembles more of a Eye2 iron than G15.

A lot of advanced technologies as well as designs make Ping G20 Irons highly forgiving and fit for all golfers. A multi-material cavity badge made with soft elastomeric heel and toe sections improves feel and sound. The cavity’s floating CTP structure stabilizes a thin face to generate fast ball speeds and distance with control. Combined with PING’s new CFS (Control, Feel, and Stability) steel shaft, the new G20 optimizes feel, trajectories and distance gaps for more consistency. The hosel-to-head transition throughout the Ping G20 irons is confidence-inspiring at address and gives the impression that the ball will launch from any lie. 

Two Ping club designers, Marty Jertson and Mike Nicolette, talked with Golfweek about the introductions. Nicolette is a former winner on the PGA Tour, and Jertson recently qualified for the PGA Championship with a fifth-place tie at the PGA Professional National Championship. “The distance control with the Ping G20 irons is fabulous,” Jertson said. “The face absolutely doesn’t have any hotspots.” The face of the G20 is 10% thinner than the face of the G15, and it has extra structural support in the middle of the clubhead to avoid any unwanted trampoline effect.

Hot Ping G20 Driver

The Ping G20Driver is designed for golfers of all ability levels. The external weighting of the large, forgiving G20 driver helps launch the ball high with low spin for maximum distance and accuracy. Ping’s proprietary high-balance-point TFC 169D shaft creates a higher MOI (moment of inertia) and generates faster ball speeds, allowing players to swing a clubhead with more mass at the same speed, for longer and straighter drives. The Ping G20 driver is a 460cc clubhead made from Ti 8-1-1, a lower-density, lighter alloy material. Its high strength-to-weight ratio increases the MOI and allows additional weight to be strategically placed on the clubhead. Large, variable-thickness in the Ping G20 Driver's face increases MOI across the hitting surface and generates faster ball speeds for increased forgiveness and power.

Several members of the Ping Tour pro staff already are using the G20 drivers and Anser Milled putters, and Hunter Mahan became the first player to carry an Anser Forged wedge. In addition, Ping professionals such as Bubba Watson, Miguel Angel Jimenez and Angel Cabrera have already put Ping G20 Driver in their bags. Ping says that it is a massive step up from the already impressive G15 driver but it can often be tough to portray these technological benefits in writing. The Ping G20 driver feels lighter that the G15, but in fact the club head is 2 grams heavier than its predecessor. This is due to their high-balance point shaft. The balance point of the shaft is higher, helping produce more kinetic energy. As a whole, the G20 roll-outs golf shots 0.75 degrees greater compared to G15, along with 200 revolutions per minute much less spin as well as One miles-per-hour quicker golf ball quickness upon center strikes, which usually results in 5 yards extra carry and also roll.

Dream Club – Ping G20 Hybrid

I hit the Ping G20 Hybrid recently. From the first sight, I like this hybrid, and after the first hit, I fell in love with it. This is my dream club. Ping G20 Hybrid delivers a great feel and is extremely forgiving with almost no sacrifice of distance and accuracy. Designed for controllable distance from any lie on the course, the offset hosel design helps the G20 hybrids create the high launch and low spin that improve your accuracy. The beautiful appearance of Ping G20 Hybrid attracted me as it shows in the market. Its exceptional ground impact ensures a smooth transition through the grass that was assured by adding bounce and increasing sole camber both front to back and heel to toe and the Ping G20 Hybrid’s square setup and a neutral head rotation help bring the clubface straight on impact for shots that find their marks, even from challenging lies.

Ping G15 hybrid was the best driving iron style hybrid in the market so many golfers were intrigued to how the G20 version had been improved. Now the G15 was a little visually challenged and despite its great performance it looked a bit toe heavy at address. Thankfully the Ping G20 Hybrid looks much better and the shallow face and lower crown give you a much more balanced impression at address. The shorter head looks more compact generally and this will appeal to more golfers. What will also appeal is the performance which was excellent from both the fairway and the rough. The feel was very good and the penetrating trajectory was higher than an iron but lower than more wood style hybrids. Many players will argue that the introduction of a hybrid in favor of a long iron has changed their game beyond all recognition, and this new Ping G20 hybrid will certainly appeal to those who struggle for consistency with their three and 4-iron.

Ping G20 Fairway Wood vs. Ping G15 Fairway Wood

    Since the Ping G20 Fairway Wood was released, there are some players who feel disappointed with it and said it is nearly the same as previous G15. This article is to compare G15 and G20 Fairway Wood to see what are their similarities and differences.

     Ping G15 Fairway Wood is a graphite game-improvement golf club wood featuring a TFC 149F shaft. Composed of stainless steel, Ping G15 Fairway Wood features a confidence inspiring elongated, low-profile design that provides forgiveness and playability from any lie on the course. Standard model has an external pad on the sole which positions the center of gravity (CG) low and farther back for higher trajectories and more distance. Draw model features the pad farther back and closer to the heel to promote easier rotation. The G15 Fairway Wood pulls off that shot quite easily as the ball is launched quickly and effortlessly. Its sole interacts with the ground smoothly and the distance was pretty impressive both in the light rough and the fairway. To be general, Ping G15 Fairway Wood provides consistent performance and launches high shots.

    Ping G20 Fairway Wood is made for players of all ability levels. Composed of the 17-4 stainless steel, G20 is easy to get the ball airborne and can create low spin with a much higher launch. Ping G20 has a slightly larger face and perimeter weighting that increases the moment of inertia (MOI) for high accuracy. With a larger front-to-back and heel-to-toe, the G20 fairway wood sets up neutral at address and rotates square at impact. It has a similar look with the driver, lower face height, sleek look, and great performance. It also features external weighting for low and back CG to produce high launch and optimal spin for long, straight results. Two kinds of shafts are provided with Ping G20 Fairway Wood-- TFC 169F shaft for higher launching and TFC 169F Tour shaft for lower trajectories.
