OT golfers - irons set decision

For $600 you can find a very nice and much newer set of pre-owned.

ur probably gonna need to regrip them so you need to allow for that too.

I was never wild about the zings but they are certainly forgiving.

I'd buy a newer set if I were you.

No matter what you do, get fitted.

Ping is definitely the way to go as far as most custom fitting options. I own a set of G25's and I am extremely happy with them. Will hang onto them for a long time.

Resale value is also there with Ping. Check ebay/CL for them.

Shot ping my whole life. Still have my eye 2'surgery but play I20'some now. Wouldn't play anything else.

I have been looking for a set of irons as well. After a lot of researching, I think I'm going to go with the Ping G30's. From what I have read and heard from people that have used them they are the real deal. Price for a used set is around $450-600.

It's not the arrow, it's the Indian, chief.

if you want to stay with ping, G series irons are very forgiving

When people say 'get fitted' where does one do that? Does this mean going to a Golfsmith and asking them if they can fit you on their machine? Or is there a more custom place to go?

It's my opinion that for 98% of people, going to a place like golfsmith for a fitting is fine. Hit off a lie board and find the best shaft for your driver. It's the board's opinion that everyone needs to schedule a fitting with a top 100 club fitter and get on TrackMan, which I think is ludicrous.

If your going to buy old Pings then get eye 2's. I have a set that I don't play with now but will never get rid of. I wasn't as big a fan of the Zings.

If you get fit old eye 2's can be bent some to match your specs, however at that point I recommend going ahead and buying either a new set of Ping G irons or a used set of G's. I have been impressed with most all the G irons and I have a set of g15's that are nice.

At some point you will get better and want to move to more a players iron like the I series etc.

Also, I recommend for a less accurate golfer, that you consider putting the 3 iron,4 iron, and maybe 5 iron in the closet and get some Hybrids to take the place of the irons. Any cobra, ping, or Adams hybrids are good choices.
