The new Ping G430 irons feature a new complex design that combines lower CG with stronger lofts and a thinner face. An extra 2 mph of swing speed with a 6-iron can lead to an additional 3-5 yards of carry. An extra -4 degrees of loft can produce 8-10 yards of carry distance without giving up landing angles. For example, the G430 6-iron is set to 25.5 degrees, 2.5 to 4.5 degrees stronger that lofts for average 6-irons.
Consistent with Ping’s focus on forgiveness, the PurFlex cavity promotes a desirable impact experience. The softer heat-treating process of the Hyper 17-4 stainless steel also promotes the face-flexing and higher launch trajectories for steeper landing angles.
Ping G430 irons span 4-iron to 58-degree wedge
Comprehensive, the Ping G430 irons features a wide span of clubs and lofts for today’s widest range of golfers. The 4-iron plays comparable to most 3-iron builds. And the full set of four wedges span between 45.5 degree Utility Wedge and the 58 degree Lob Wedge. See full club specs at Ping.
