G15 Irons, Classic Improvement Stick

If the G10 provides maximum forgiveness then what do you call an iron that provides even more forgiveness? PING calls it the G15.
When you are setting up to a "classic" iron, what kinds of thoughts run through your mind? For me, I imagine the silky smooth feel of the sweet spot. I visualize the ball curving through the air at will. I can almost see the ball falling to the green with just enough spin to bounce twice and then stop. However, put a blade in another player's hands and the reaction could be entirely different. They might look down desperately searching for that microscopic sweet spot, trembling at the thought of the painful reverberations of a mis-hit.
At first glance they are nice looking irons, sporting slightly larger than normal club heads with some sharp graphics. The Ping G15 Irons would definitely look good sitting in your bag at a Sunday morning medal.
When first holding the clubs though, Ping G15 Irons definitely feel a bit heavier than most other Ping irons. However it really only takes a few practice swings to get used to the weight, and get a feel for the Ping G15 Irons.
As mentioned these irons were made to be easy to hit, and they do certainly deliver. The Ping G15 Irons can get the golf ball away consistently with such little effort, and you don't need to make that great a swing in order to get a decent shot.
And this was generally the case right the way through the set. Even the longer irons shouldn't pose too much difficulty for most players. However there is an alternative there in the form of the G15 hybrids, which are available for the golfers who are perhaps intimidated by trying to hit long irons.
In terms of forgiveness, the performance of the P Ping G15 Irons was very impressive. Off the fairway the clubs were so accurate, and the golf ball always held its line very well once airborne. Anyone who has trouble hitting enough greens in regulation could certainly see some benefit in using these irons.


If you need a maximum game-improvement iron, consider the Ping G15 Irons. They felt silky-smooth and definitely helped me launch the ball higher, with a slight increase in distance, too. Low-handicap players, on the other hand, might be put off by the extra-wide soles and the lack of workability. These Ping G15 Irons go straight just about no matter what you do.
