Typhoon As Steve would say, and I agree, their signature look was “no ferrules”. Now their irons look like everyone else’s but they are very easy to hit... that part remains.

My experience with the G400 was quite different. It wasn't about ferrules. The thinner topline look at address for me was a disappointment. They didn't have that Ping look to me. And I didn't find them as forgiving as some of the older models.

        A few years back I had a set of Ping G irons as rentals and they were just so easy to hit. I think they are getting away from the Game improvement look with a thinner top line. I don’t know about the G400 but maybe they aren’t as forgiving as pings from a couple years ago. Trying to appeal to people with a thinner top line might take away forgiveness.

          There's a Japan Eye 2 model lurking out there as well. You can spot them by the serial number on the hosel. It wraps around the hosel horizontally instead of along the hosel. Got this intel from The PING rep when I found a SW in a PIAS store. They told me they were not cast any differently, just made for Japan distribution.

          I'm gaming mine again with Matrix Ozik Red Tie 65g Lite flex graphites. I hand taper the parallel shaft to fit. What shafts did you get?

              Found a nice set... damm it!!!! If the wife was spending so much money I’d pull the trigger.

              bigshank when they were new I really liked the I5s

              I had a set of I5's that I ordered myself when I retired. Loved those clubs until the R shafts got too strong for me in
              my old age. Foolishly, I sold them instead of re-shafting. Wish I had that set back!

                  love the i5. Had a set here and shouldn't have sold them ....still have a set in my bag that stays in Phoenix though.

                  recently hit the isiK, and hit them great

                    Mine would be the I25 or IE1. Prefer the looks of the I25 but probably hit the IE1 marginally better.

                    Have only hit the g5 and i200. Meh. Ping=FUGLY

                                  People can comment all they want on the looks as I take their money using them 😉

                                      Is there a website anywhere that has all of the Ping iron specs and comparisons?

                                        Eye2's were revolutionary, but seriously fugly. i5's were solid performers. G25 was stupid easy to hit....maybe should have kept that set. Every time I hit a buddy's G410's I think that I should steal them....he sucks so bad Ping should pay him not to play their clubs.
