FAQs

What makes the S259 wedges different from the S159?

The S259 wedges evolve from the S159 platform with updated sole grinds, broader loft options, and a refined, compact tour-inspired profile. They also feature an enlarged elastomer insert for improved sound and feel.

How can I choose the right loft and grind for my S259 wedges?

Ping recommends using their WebFit Wedge app. This tool provides a fitting experience that suggests the most suitable S259 loft and grind combinations based on your swing and typical playing conditions.

Does the Hydropearl 2.0 Chrome finish help with wet conditions?

Yes, the Hydropearl 2.0 Chrome finish is specifically designed to repel moisture, which helps maintain spin and control even when the clubface is wet.

What material are the S259 wedges made from?

The S259 wedges are forged from 8620 carbon steel, providing a soft and responsive feel at impact.

What are the available finishes for the S259 wedges?

The S259 wedges are available in Hydropearl 2.0 Chrome. In Europe, a darker Midnight finish is exclusively available on the S Grind.

What is the standard shaft in the S259 wedges?

The standard shaft is the PING Z-Z115 Steel Wedge shaft, which weighs 110g and offers a Low-Mid launch and Mid Spin profile.

Can I get custom lofts or grinds for the S259 wedges?

The S259 wedges are offered in a wide array of lofts and grinds. For specific custom fitting needs beyond the standard offerings, it is best to consult a certified Ping fitting center.

Troubleshooting

Inconsistent spin on approach shots

Ensure the clubface and grooves are clean. Check for any debris or dirt build-up. If conditions are wet, the Hydropearl 2.0 finish should assist, but extreme moisture can still impact spin. Consider if the loft and grind selection is appropriate for the shot type.

Ball digging into the turf on bunker shots

This could indicate that the sole grind is too narrow or lacks sufficient bounce for bunker play. Consider a grind with higher bounce (e.g., W-14) if you frequently play from sand.

Reduced feel or feedback at impact

Ensure the enlarged elastomer insert is intact. If the club feels unusually muted or disconnected, inspect the insert. Also, verify the shaft and grip are securely fitted.

Grooves wearing down quickly

While designed for durability, excessive use or abrasive playing conditions can wear grooves over time. Regular cleaning helps maintain groove integrity. If wear is significant, consult a professional fitter.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Ping S259 wedges are offered in a wide variety of lofts and sole grinds (e.g., S-12, W-14, H-10, S-10, T-6, E-8, B-8). To determine the optimal combination for your game, Ping recommends using their WebFit Wedge app, which analyzes your swing and playing conditions to suggest the best fit. Standard specifications include a length of 35" to 35 1/2", a lie angle of 64.0° to 64.5°, and an offset of 0.02" to 0.06", depending on the specific model.

Compatibility: These wedges are compatible with standard golf shafts and grips. The PING Z-Z115 Steel Wedge shaft (110g, Low-Mid Launch, Mid Spin) and the PING Dyla Wedge Grip (Standard size, .580" core, 52g) are standard offerings. They are designed for adult golfers and are unisex.

Care: To maintain the performance and appearance of your S259 wedges, clean the clubface and grooves after each use with a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals. The Hydropearl 2.0 finish on the chrome models helps with moisture management, but it is still advisable to dry the club thoroughly after play, especially in wet conditions. Store your wedges in a dry place.
