Cheap Golf Clubs Ping K15 Irons 3-9PS Low At $399

Ping K15 Irons 3-9PS $399.99 Optimize your set by combining irons and hybrids to improve your ball flight and build consistency in your game. The larger K15 iron combines a lightweight titanium face with a stainless-steel body to increase both forgiveness and launch conditions. Two hybrid options (4 and 5) replace the harder-to-hit long irons, and rely on a patent-pending design that creates lower-spinning, higher-launching shots that fly straighter and longer...More description about K15 Irons at http://www.wowgolfclubs.com.

In the tradition of Ping 's manufacturing of great Super Game Improvement Irons we now witness the arrival ofthe K-15 Line. These are meant to replace The Rapture Line. I think that Ping finally decided to do a Hybrid Inclusive set so that they could, as they have been doing since the days of the G5 Irons, introduce an entire line of clubs simultaneously. These irons fit in very well with the K-15 Driver, Fairway Metals, and Hybrids. Better yet, the hybrids are an integral part of this set, and the set can be mixed and/or matched with Hybrids from 3H-6H, and irons from 5I-Lob Wedge. In most cases the Gap Wedge, Sand Wedge, and Lob Wedge are sold separately, but retailers are definitely willing to deal and do workarounds in today's economy.

More of the Same?

Well there is a lot here that starts to sound very familiar to those of us who have been watching Iron Development rather closely over the past ten years. Tell me this doesn't sound familiar to you if you've been researching Game Improvement, and Super Game Improvement clubs. "The super hot Titanium face helps save over 20 grams of weight which is then redistributed around the club's perimeter. This helps add forgiveness in the form of a much higher MOI and a lower center of gravity."  For those of you who have not been absolutely inundated by these very same claims by several makers over the past decade or so, that translates into--The titanium face will buy you distance. Because it is lighter, the weight savings have been added to the heel,toe, and sole of the club which helps prevent the club head from twisting, and makes the club slightly bottom heavy so that it is easier to launch the ball higher. (Definitely a necessity with today's stronger lofts.)

What is different is that Ping, who basically started the cavity back craze with the venerable Ping Eye 2 Line, have finally started adding hybrids to the set. Up until now, Ping pretty much sold the irons and hybrids separately, though many a retailer would cut you a deal if necessary. Especially if you were willing to pay the premium involved in building your club set a la carte. Even so, one thing does remain the same, Ping's well earned reputation for craftsmanship, which usually results in clubs that retain the highest trade in value over the greatest number of years. Go ahead and price a set of Ping Eye 2 Beryllium Copper Irons on E-Bay. They'll run you close to what you would have payed for them brand new at the time of their original manufacture.

Distance--5 Stars

These babies are living proof that TaylorMade, Callaway, and Yonex do not have a lock on distance with titanium faced irons. These are just as long as any of them. What I like about them though is that they tend to feel smoother. I'll give these the go ahead any day as far as consistency of distance, which is a quality that titanium irons are just now beginning to obtain. There was a time when using a titanium faced iron, due to the nature of the alloys and available metallurgical processes of the time, could cause severe variances in distance. I've hit some of the oldies, and occasionally, a 7 Iron in a set would be as long as the 5.

Balance--4 Stars

Extremely well balanced for Super Game Improvement Clubs. The trouble is, they do tend to have a very slight vaguenes here and there in certain parts of the backswing. Never at the top or the transition where it could be a problem, and never anything that could prove detrimental to a high cappper. It's just something that I am aware of in the very darkest corners of my mind as I take the club back. My new slower tempo is making me a little "too sensitive" to this sort of thing, and the consistency of trajectory and distance I was getting with these shows that to be something that  should probably be checked off as a personal preference, and not an actual defect. These clubs are very well balanced, and should suit beginners and high-cappers extremely well.

Forgiveness--5 Stars

These clubs are extremely forgiving. They do sport a rather hefty amount of offset--.23 in the 5 Iron and .10 in the Lob Wedge. This definitely takes the slice out of the equation if you can get close to swinging on plane. It also makes workability a bit of a joke, but "Workability" and "Super Game Improvemnet Club" do not even belong in the same sentence together, much less the same golf game. If you want high long and straight--these clubs offer it in great abundance.

Options--5 Stars

Now I know that I've already mentioned that you can mix and match these clubs to your heart's content a la carte style. The clubs are available with either the Ping AWT Steel Shaft or the Ping TFC 149 "I"  Graphite Shaft. The Graphite model is a mid-slightly torquey shaft with a fairly soft tip. If you need more swing speed--go with these. If you need more control--go with the steel.

Overall--5 Stars

Even though I'm not a huge fan of the hybrids in this set, I think they are much more than adequate for the task at hand. The irons are very nice indeed, and hit wonderfully. Now if you are a beginner, or a chronic slicer you will love the hybrids in this set. They just run with a little too much offset for my personal taste, and that can lead to some nasty pull-hooks for a converted lefty like me. These irons are exceptionally well built, as long as anything else out there, and for once--Ping is giving Adams a real run for their money in the Forgiveness department, while beating them in the distance game. (The distance claim is for irons only--the Adams hybrids are definitely the longer in that category.) If you are a beginner or high capper and in the market for irons--these deserve more than just a cursory glance. I'd like to thank my CL Abraham for getting me the links that made this review possible.
Ping K15 Fairway Wood A Ping innovation called Straight Flight Technology makes you extremely straight with your fairway woods. This visible technology rotates the club face to a more square impact position, which provides straighter shots.

Assisted by the Ping innovation of Straight Flight Technology (SF Tech), the Ping K15 places approximately 10% of the head mass into the heel of the club, helping to square the club face through the hitting zone for consistently straight tee shots.
