Which PING Iron Should You Play?

The PING iron lineup covers the entire range of golfers. Whether you like a classic blade with forged feel or want an iron that helps you hit it farther and straighter to make the game more fun, there is a PING iron for you. So how do you choose? With this handy guide, of course! At TGW, we developed a player profile to fit each iron and make picking the right PING iron for you easier than ever. Just match your game to the profile that fits you best and you’re on your way.
