I decided to review their new line for myself so I could see what all the buzz was about.
The I10 Irons are an all stainless steel irons which is going back to what made the G lineup popular. The Rapture, a composite/titanium hybrid wood did not live up to the hype in my opinion and was very expensive. The first thing you see when you set the i10 down is one, it keeps a fairly similar look to the i5 irons, with some improvements to its weighting.
The main thing to keep in mind with these irons are that they are built for the better player, even though it is Ping, they have been making some great clubs for the lower handicap player over the past few years. See the G10 for a more forgiving iron.
The i10 is basically a better version of the i5. I believe that these irons launch a little higher due to the slight changes in weight distribution from the G5, but overall they are basically the same iron and carry the same distance.
When I hit some balls with last month, I will admit, I was impressed. The i5's were a great iron, but these are far better. I was able to try an iron that came from Ping's WRX department with a grind that fit my more "sweeping" swing. The contact to the ground was incredible and the trajectory control was superb. I was able to work the ball any way I wanted to and that is a huge plus for me!
Overall, I would suggest these irons to anyone. I would also suggest using the Ping WRX club fitting service. Spend some time with your local pro or club maker and find a shaft and loft combination that will work best for you. There are many options available and your pro or club maker will get you fit into the right set up for you. Pings iron fitting is legendary, there are so many options in the WRX department. From loft to lie, to length and shafts and grips, you can even get a special sole grind on these irons! Ping not only makes a great iron with great customer service, but the way the heads are made, they seem to last forever and are easily refinished and re grooved by Ping!
Give one a try over the Winter, you will be very pleased with the Ping i10 Irons! Check out my other reviews of the G10 lineup!

Post a CommentGood review, I just received a set of the I 10's for Christmas. I haven't had a chance to hit them yet but look and feel great, sometimes an underrated aspect. I am pretty confident I have the right color, shaft, grip, lie angle, my brother is a pro on the Hooter's/Nationwide tour and provided my dad with the data when ordering. However, are minor lie angle adjustments easy and or recommended? Your review has made me even more excited to hit them, too bad it's jan in ny thanks!
You seem very confident in your knowledge! :)
