2nd Swing Golf
Master fitters, Trackman-heavy testing
Loved it“the Ping Blueprint T is amazing”
Called amazing in the blade discussion, though he fits very few pure blades.
+ the facts · 1 pros− the facts
For: Avid players committed to a muscle back
Mark Crossfield
Coach, famously hard to impress
Liked it“maybe one of the best looking irons out there”
A stunning compact muscle back that wins on looks and feel all day long, but performance-wise Crossfield sees no reason to play it below an 8-iron over the S.
+ the facts · 5 pros · 3 cons− the facts
- +Maybe one of the best looking irons out there, with Ping's short squat blade length and slender top line
- +Gorgeous solid, soft, forged sound and feel
- +Hydropearl 2.0 chrome finish for more consistent spin across lies
- −Expensive, off-the-scale premium pricing
- −Slender head is nerve-wracking on shots where you want help
- −No performance case over the S beyond looks; he wouldn't go past an 8-iron in T
For: Elite ball-strikers who love a bladed look, ideally blended with the S in the longer irons
