MOI (Moment of Inertia)<\/a> the technology that helps players make massive improvements to their game.<\/p>\nThis quality, forgiveness, is a feature throughout the whole set making these clubs easy to hit, with consistent direction and good distance.<\/p>\n
A further benefit is that even shots that are off-center, or missing the sweet spot, will still go fairly straight to your target area although you might forfeit some distance.<\/p>\n
The G10 head also features an additional toe weight and a wider sole greatly enhancing turf interaction, feel, and consistency.<\/p>\n
The standard set makeup is: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, PW. Also available is 2, GW, SW, LW.<\/p>\n
1. Tuning Port Insert<\/h5>\n
As the cavity is enlarged the face becomes thinner and needs to be reinforced and stabilized. This is achieved by the introduction of the CTP (Custom Tuning Port). The benefit of the CTP insert is to enhance the \u201cfeel\u201d or feedback that you get from the cast head-on impact. The reinforced club face makes it \u201csuper-hot\u201d and gives you the increased distance.<\/p>\n
2. Ascending Weight Technology<\/h5>\n
Ping uses longer standard steel shafts which are lighter than the shorter iron shafts. The ascending weight starts with the heaviest shafts in the wedge becoming progressively lighter, with the lightest found in the driver.<\/p>\n
These graduated shaft weights along with the wider sole, as previously mentioned, greatly enhance turf interaction. The greatest benefit is the consistency that this technology provides and the resulting control and confidence that the player will experience.<\/p>\n
Shaft flex options:\u00a0 Light, Regular, Stiff, and X Stiff, also available with graphite shafts.<\/p>\n
3. Custom Fitting<\/h5>\n
The most popular feature, and reason for the growth of popularity of the Ping G10 brand, is the custom fitting service. Simply put, we are all individuals and no two people have the same height, weight, grip, strength, and swing speed. It stands to reason then that we should not all have the same clubs and that custom fitting would make a huge difference.<\/p>\n
Ping has revolutionized the industry through this technology and the use of the PING nFlight Technology analysis tool.<\/p>\n
The player’s swing is analyzed to determine all the specifications that the clubs should have. From the result, the requirements for spin rate, trajectory, and shot shape can be determined and the benefit is to enhance the player’s iron distance, control levels, and consistency.<\/p>\n
4. Offsets<\/h5>\n
The high degree of game-improvement features has a negative effect as we saw in the cons. The biggest drawback is the loss of control, making it difficult to shape the ball, to either fade or draw. In an attempt to compensate for this to some degree Ping G10 irons pay close attention to the offsets.<\/p>\n
The offset on the long irons is optimized in order to make them more forgiving, while the offset is reduced on the short irons to give them more playability.<\/p>\n
5. Pure and solid feel<\/h5>\n
Most important for the mid handicap player is confidence. The Ping G10 with the larger than average head, gives a very solid and powerful feel when striking the ball. The forgiveness is exceptional and if you mishit the ball you might lose some distance but should not be too heavily penalized on the direction.<\/p>\n
Alternatives<\/h2>\n
There are a couple of very competent and user-friendly alternatives on the market that can stand next to the Ping G10.<\/p>\n
