Ping i530 Graphite Golf Irons

For players who desire a compact blade-style head and whose primary goal is more distance, the new i530 is engineered to lower scores through launching the ball higher and farther.

The clean, premium look owes in part to a new machining technique that thins the back wall of the hollow-body design, saving weight to help with forgiveness and tightening dispersion.

Blade enthusiasts will appreciate the thin top line, narrow sole and shallow face height. The forged, highly flexible maraging steel C300 face is precisely welded to a 17-4 stainless steel hollow body.

Distance gains come from multiple sources, including an internal weight pad that provides a deeper and thinner face-to-sole transition, ensuring more face flexing and pushing mass down to lower the centre of gravity for more ball speed.

The arcing sole cascade contributes to distance by accentuating face bending. Add in the lower centre of gravity and distance-optimized lofts and the i530 delivers approximately three more yards with a high max height for green-holding results.

The lower CG is also more aligned with where impact occurs, and a polymer improves feel and sound while maximizing face bending and ball speed. Precision-milled MicroMax grooves ensure consistent launch and spin from all conditions.
