Ping engineers are data-driven, so they used research from Arccos showing that high-handicappers need more draw bias. As a result, they made the standard lie angle in this set 1 degree more upright to fight a slice.
The sole width is 22 percent wider and the blade length 3 percent longer than the G440. That ups the perimeter weighting and lowers the centre of gravity for an easy-to-launch, forgiving iron.
Top 5 in Performance, high-handicappers
Specs: 7-iron: 28 degrees; PW: 40 degrees
“Hot List testers noted high-spinning shots and soft yet springy feel with explosive ball speed, easy launch, strong forgiveness and long distance.”
