If you’re a fan of Ping irons – and, seriously, who’s not? – then today is a good day.
Say hello to the newest additions to the brand’s popular “i” series: the i230 irons and iCrossover.
Designed for avid players who want to make significant improvements, the i230 irons combine the precise control and consistency of a players’ iron with the forgiveness of a game improvement iron, much like the iconic Ping EYE 2 irons used to.
The Crossover category, meantime, has been integrated into the “i” family to target golfers who prefer a blade-style of iron.
Let’s take a closer look at the tech story behind each one…

Advancements
to the activated elastomer technology in the i230 iron allowed Ping
engineers to save significant weight, which is re-allocated within the
clubhead to position the centre of gravity low for more distance
and control, while increasing the moment of inertia for added
forgiveness.
The low CG combines with greater face bending to deliver higher ball speeds. The elastomer reinforces the face, providing
more consistent bending and energy transfer across the entire face,
resulting in approximately three more yards of distance in player
testing. Its higher MOI is largely due to tungsten toe and tip weights,
which help make it the most forgiving “i” iron to date.
