FAQs

Who are the Ping G740 irons designed for?

The G740 irons are designed as a super game-improvement iron for adult golfers who benefit most from maximum distance, forgiveness, and consistency. This typically includes mid-to-high handicap players.

What is the key benefit of the wider dual-camber sole?

The wider dual-camber sole positions the center of gravity (CG) lower and further back, which helps produce faster ball speeds and a higher launch. It also improves turf interaction, allowing the club to glide more smoothly through the ground.

How do the 5 and 6 irons differ from the rest of the set?

The 5 and 6 irons feature a 3/4 inch length progression designed to help golfers launch these longer iron shots higher and achieve greater carry distance, making them easier to hit.

What is the purpose of the PurFlex cavity badge?

The three-piece PurFlex cavity badge works with the thin, flexible face to dampen vibrations and support consistent face flex, which improves ball speed and creates a more satisfying impact experience.

Are these irons suitable for advanced golfers?

While highly forgiving, the G740's super game-improvement design with a larger profile may offer less workability compared to player's irons. They are best suited for golfers prioritizing distance and forgiveness over shot-shaping ability.

What are the available wedge options in the G740 set?

The G740 iron set includes options of a Pitching Wedge (PW), Utility Wedge (UW), a 50-degree wedge, and a 56-degree wedge. All four wedges feature precision-milled grooves for improved spin control.

Can I choose different shafts or grips?

Yes, PING offers custom fitting options. While the standard shaft is the PING ALTA CB and the standard grip is the Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360, custom shaft and grip selections are available to match your specific needs.

Troubleshooting

Reduced distance or inconsistent ball speed

Ensure clubface is clean and free of debris. Check for any obvious damage to the clubface or shaft. Verify that the swing mechanics are consistent.

Difficulty launching the ball high

Focus on using the 5 and 6 irons, which are designed for higher launch. Ensure your swing path and impact position are optimized for a higher trajectory. Consider a loft adjustment if available and recommended by a fitting professional.

Poor turf interaction or digging

The wider dual-camber sole is designed to help glide through the turf. Focus on maintaining a consistent swing plane and allowing the sole to work through the impact zone. Ensure the club is set up correctly for your swing.

Wedges not spinning effectively

Ensure the grooves on the wedges are clean. The precision-milled grooves are designed for optimal spin, but debris can hinder performance. Focus on proper short-game technique to impart spin.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Delivers exceptional distance for players needing help gaining yardage.
  • Offers high levels of forgiveness, making mishits less penalizing.
  • Promotes a higher launch angle, beneficial for golfers with slower swing speeds or those who strike the ball low on the face.
  • Improved stability and consistency through advanced weighting and sole design.
  • Wedges are precision-milled for better spin control on approach shots and around the green.

Cons

  • The super game-improvement design means a larger clubhead profile, which may not be aesthetically preferred by all golfers.
  • May offer less workability for advanced players accustomed to more traditional blade designs.
  • The focus on distance and forgiveness might slightly compromise the feedback on very thin or thick shots compared to player's irons.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The G740 irons come with standard PING ALTA CB shafts in R, SR, and S flexes and Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 grips. Custom shaft and grip options are available to tailor the clubs to individual needs. Ensure you select the correct loft option (Standard, PWR, or Retro) based on your swing characteristics and desired ball flight.

Compatibility: These irons are designed for adult golfers of all genders. They are compatible with standard golf rules and equipment regulations.

Care: To maintain optimal performance, regularly clean the clubfaces after each use to remove dirt and debris that can affect spin. Use a soft brush and a damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Store your clubs in a dry place to prevent rust or damage to the shafts and grips.
