When I think of Ping, my first thought is to the revolution that they brought to the market with cast cavity-back irons. It is my opinion that Ping has one of the most loyal fan bases of any of the club makers, and anytime a new iron set is released there is bound to be excitement. With the announcement of the new Ping G25 irons has once again created quite a stir. The newest G25s are a slight change from the G series of irons that Ping has traditionally been offering. It seems they have taken feedback from golfers that the top line and sole width had been getting too large and decided to have the designers change it up a bit with the G25s. Even with all the cosmetic and performance changes Ping wanted to make sure it was a high performing and forgiving iron that would appeal to golfers of all skill levels. The main difference Ping has made with the G25s over the G20 irons has to do with a more efficient design of the custom tuning port (CTP). Ping has integrated the bottom of the CTP structure into the sole of the club. By moving this port Ping engineers could save fifteen grams of weight and move that weight towards the hosel and low toe. The improved CTP design also allowed the engineers to move the center of gravity lower and drive up MOI. In the Ping G20 irons, Ping had moved the weight down in the sole club to improve the launch conditions, but it had allowed the sole to become very large in the process. Ping engineers with the G25 wanted to reduce the size of the sole but keep the forgiveness and ideal launch conditions. The cosmetic changes do not reflect the improvements made. The new CFS is the steel stock offering from Ping. It helped to produce a long flight on test. The TFC 169i is the graphite offering and will help anyone looking for a higher launch. The Ping G20 maintain the Ping 'G' look, they have changed the weighting in the head and modified the feel. Impressive forgiveness remains, but with a better all-round performance. ?Ping has opted for a lighter finish than in the Ping K15 irons and the head itself is slightly more compact to look down on. There is still plenty of confidence-inspiring forgiveness on show. Overall, each iron had a crisp feel and the ball came shooting off the face. They were forgiving, but they managed to still give feedback to me on where on the face I hit the ball. Feedback can be tough to find on most game improvement irons. In my opinion they have an excellent balance between feeling where you hit the shot and being forgivine enough not to punish you too much when you do miss.
