Ping I25 Iron Review

It’s all about the looks and how you feel

The sound and feel of the i25s is a bit improved over the i20s overall, and noticeably better on pured shots. I’m able to more easily discern where on the club I’m making contact, and with center strikes it all disappears into that Ahhhh! nothingness feeling we all yearn for.

Ping’s pitching wedge i25.

The i25 irons are significantly larger than Ping’s S55 irons at address, especially in the longer irons. Ping added a smooth transition between the heel line and the top line and rounded the toe of irons for a more traditional appearance. Ping made sure that the back of irons is invisible even though the top lines become thicker in long irons. That’s a major complaint for some good players. In the short irons, the top lines and blade lengths get thinner, giving better players the more compact look they’re used to seeing.

The i25 irons look amazing in the bag. Their “Foggy Chrom” finish reduces glare when at address. CTP’s new look gives the irons a more polished appearance.

Ping Anser Forged gamer irons have C-Taper shafts. The irons can be expensive, but I believe they’re worth it. After much debate, I made the decision to order the i25s using the CTAper shafts. This set is comparable to one I tried at Ping using CFS shafts. However, it’s clear that the CFS shafts are better than the ones I used for the i20s. CFS shafts allow me to spin the set well with the i25s. C-Tapers provide better control for the Anser Forged. There may be a slight variation in your mileage.

What about the diggers and sweepers out there? The sole grind of diggers is more efficient than that of the i20s and it allows them to get through Earth’s crust faster. This was readily noticeable to me when I was setting up too much on my left side and coming in steep early on in the review process. Video resolved that eventually, but the i25s handled it well.

The takeaway

You may have read my article on Ping’s Play Your Best philosophy. I didn’t answer the question of what is in Marty Jertson’s 2014 bag as Chief Designer. Marty will again be using the Ping i25 golf irons if he is able to qualify for the PGA Championship. This is a departure from his G25s, which he also designed. It’s an endorsement that I find quite impressive.

In terms of which bag I would take with me to Augusta National Golf Club, my Anser Forced and my i25s is the one I am most torn between. Knowing the variables and sneaky wind, all of the cameras and people around me and the second-shot layout with narrow green landing zones… it is hard not to be forgiven while trying to keep my shot making skills. The i25s at the Masters. Wish me luck.

Ping I25 Iron Review

Review: Irons Ping I25

Ping makes the i-series irons with incredible forgiveness. Their irons are a player’s iron that has some forgiveness. Every generation is a bit better, more patient and more open-minded. The latest version of the i25s is optimized for performance and looks, while offering more forgiveness. The i25s have all the small tweaks Ping has made that make them an excellent choice for lower handicap players who aren’t able to put in extra practice time. Ping i25 players irons are a fantastic choice.

This is my first i-series iron review so I can’t compare them to previous versions, but I’ve played all of the recent S-series irons and played a few G-series ones too. They are in the middle of those categories and will fit any player who has played, although they could do with some more forgiveness. My favorite thing about the i25 is their looks. Their compact design and foggy chrome finish make them attractive to be carried in a bag or at the address. While the sole is mid-sized, their topline is shorter. These are very well-built with their sleek dual stabilizing bars, low tuning port and clean cavity. Mine came with DG S300 shafts. They had black dot heads. I also used stock id8 grits. They scored D2 on all tests. For the bulk of the set, you should consider their CFS shaft design.

Ping i25 irons can be ordered 3-iron-LW. The 4-iron – UW, which is the Gap Wedge of the irons, was my choice. I also play Tour Gorge SW (54*) or LW (58*). The bag fits perfectly and I have enjoyed swinging my irons well. They have a progressive offset which I love. Ping’s new i25 irons, while there are many other clubs that have it, is the best. It is much easier to hit the 4-irons and go airborne. Wedges don’t have as many off-sets and are easy to set up. Every head is unique and each iron looks different. Even in the 4-iron the offset isn’t too big. But it is enough to aid you. And as you advance to the scoring Irons the off-set gets smaller.

are no different. These are very strong at impact thanks to the vibration dampening provided by the tuning port and the tungsten insert. They didn’t feel hollow or like cast clubs, and they don’t have any feeling of being too heavy. The tungsten weight on the toe continues to help balance the head through impact to keep it square and create an even better feeling head.

Ping i25 made the irons a good 5-7yards longer than mine. Although it wouldn’t be considered a complete club, I would say that the irons were about half a club longer. The rule was that I wouldn’t swap clubs once I had reached a specified yardage. I did however switch to the shorter club if necessary to get to my target. This is what turned out to really be the winner, the dispersion. The clubs are extremely tight. It may be the shaft and head that caused them to launch slightly lower. Their forgiveness was where I saw their true potential. I had a couple rounds that I didn’t feel like I was swinging well and yet I still ended up with great results.

The long irons are where I really noticed the most forgiveness. I didn’t want to miss them. Instead, I was confidently hitting greens with 4-irons & 5-irons. No lie was made by the 6-iron-8-iron. Even though my driver was spaying, I could still find green grass from the taller grass. They easily cut through, without needing to dig. The blunted leading edge and ground off trailing edge yet with some thickness in the middle of the sole allowed me get through the turf without major divots. The U-wedge and 9-iron were accurate from the yards you need to score. For me, the U-wedge 50* was an excellent way to make up the difference between PW (46*), my Tour Gorge 54* and my Ping i25 irons.

This iron is the ideal combination for players who want to look great while still having incredible forgiveness. I can’t say if you need to upgrade if you have the i20 irons, but I do know that if you are playing an older model these will feel better and offer more forgiveness. Ping i25 irons are incredibly versatile. These irons are great for anyone who isn’t a high handicap player, but they also offer the flexibility that mid- and high-handicap players need. Ping i25 golf irons provide incredible forgiveness.

Ping I25 Iron Review

Review: Ping Irons I25

PING has released the i25 this year’s newest generation of i-Series Irons. This is a follow up to the i25, one of the most profitable iron releases PING has ever seen.

Click on each picture for larger image For this review, THP spe time with the i25 irons in a 3-LW configuration paired with CFS steel shafts.

The following is a PING article about the i25 irons

The 17-4 stainless irons are designed to deliver distance, forgiveness and control for confident shotmaking. A progressive set of irons is made up of long irons. The large irons’ heads are larger and the soles wider. They deliver exceptional forgiveness and excellent trajectory. To improve accuracy and scoring, compact irons (mid and short) have slimmer soles that are less offset.

For increased distance and height, the face-stabilizing bars on the long irons will increase the ball velocity. The bars on the short irons are wider to produce a smoother flight that produces a lower speed ball. The careful design details in the club’s shape and set progression are captured with an inspiring foggy chrome finish. Forgiveness is increased by using tungsten in the low-toe. Machined grooves and faces provide control and consistency.

Review of Ping I25 Irons

Golfmagic What do we make of the brand new i25 iron from PING?

WHILE I’ve all the respect in the world for PING irons, I’ve never really found one that appeals.

Yes, exceptional performance is always guaranteed from these guys whether it be game improver or player stick, but for the most part, PING irons have always looked a little too chunky and off-putting for me.
