Bigborgel The Ping Eye 2's will play much better with new shafts

The FST 115 trimmed to a senior flex per their chart are perfect for me and I have them in several sets. I plan to ream my Eye 2's and put them in my set. I don't have the heads pulled yet (yuck, stinky Ping glue) but I read that Ping heads tend to be a bit on the light side. Is this correct?

    So noted on the offer withdrawal.....it was damn tempting!
    The ZZ Lite shaft is stiff, but in combination with that head they feel great. Eye 2 irons are magic.😉

      6 days later

      Found a set of BeCu on the cheap. MicroTaper shafts. Working on the heads now. This is a halfway point for me. I may get them tumbled and painted, but am tempted to buy a tumbler. Some before and after pics. Coke soak and an Acetone soak. The 7 -W were nasty. There are some stubborn spots in the 5, 9, and W cavities. Might leave the paintfill out of the cavities, might not. Either way, they're gonna get some play and the patina shall return.







        sdandrea1 changed the title to PING Eye 2 irons.........PICS!! .

        Typhoon Nice, hope they get dark again real soon

        You and I both know it happens very quickly.

          I love the finish, love the grind! Pretty much everything else about the eye2 is butt ugly😛. Like looking down at a friggin duck hook with metal pipe hitting a boulder! But the turf interaction be nice😎

          fatshot Looking good Steve! How long did you soak them in Coke? Acetone?

          Overnight in Coke. 1 hour in Acetone and I still had to brush/polish them to get what you see.

            Rickochet You have a bastard child in the group with the Zing wedge.

            That SW goes with my ZING 2 set. I just treated the finish with the Eye 2s. My ZING 2 set is SS, so it's still a bastard.😉

              $12 + shipping !

              Those are beautiful! Nice Work Steve.

              Why can’t I ever run into a set of those? I want a BeCu set, just to say I have them lol. The Barkeepers for copper does a helluva job on stubborn stuff too. I took copper bottom pots from my great grandmother and had them looking damn near 20 minutes, impressive stuff.

                DC300

                I found these on Ebay. They were split into 2 different listings. The 4,5,6 in one and 7 to W on the other. The pics showed the serial #s all the same to I messaged the guy and he said he listed them separately because the grips didn't match. I paid $170 shipped. I could maybe get $300 now but I'd like to keep them.

                    Let me know if u get $300 for them Steve. I have the 2-sw and it seems they aren't actually selling for a whole lot. That's about the only reason I'm keeping mine right now.

                      Mine aren't for sale. I was looking at some of the past sales of sets that had matching numbers and clean heads.

                        Maybe they are better now, I know I looked a year or 2 ago and was disappointed.

                        What I might do sometime is sell the Orange dot ones that are in Nick's bag that he never uses and put the coppers in there. My youngest is a lefty and has G2 irons.
