Product Information

Full details

The Ping G740 irons are designed for adult golfers seeking maximum distance, forgiveness, and consistency, particularly those who benefit from a super game-improvement iron. The key benefit is achieving easier launch and improved ball speeds across the face for more reliable distance. A potential caveat for advanced players might be the super game-improvement design which prioritizes forgiveness over some feel nuances. This set features advanced perimeter weighting, a wider dual-camber sole, and a shallow face to promote higher launch and stability, making them ideal for players who struggle with consistent ball striking.

FAQs

Who are the Ping G740 irons best suited for?

These irons are designed as a super game-improvement set, ideal for adult golfers seeking maximum distance, forgiveness, and a higher launch. They are particularly beneficial for players who struggle with consistent ball striking or tend to hit shots lower on the face.

What is the main advantage of the wider dual-camber sole?

The wider dual-camber sole improves turf interaction, allowing the club to glide more smoothly through the ground for cleaner strikes. It also helps position the center of gravity lower and further back, contributing to faster ball speeds and a higher launch.

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 compared to standard set construction. This is specifically engineered to help golfers launch these longer iron shots higher and achieve greater carry distance, making them easier to hit.

Can I customize the loft on the G740 irons?

Yes, Ping offers different loft options, including Standard Loft, PWR Spec Loft (stronger lofts for more distance), and Retro Spec Loft (weaker lofts for higher flight and controlled distances). It's recommended to consult with a certified Ping fitter for these options.

What kind of feel can I expect from these irons?

The G740 irons feature a shallower face and a three-piece PurFlex cavity badge designed to improve sound and vibration control, leading to a more satisfying impact experience. While engineered for feel, the super game-improvement design prioritizes forgiveness.

Are these irons available with different shaft options?

Yes, the G740 irons are available with both steel and graphite shafts. The standard graphite shaft is the PING ALTA CB. Custom shaft options are also typically available through fitting.

How do I clean and care for my G740 irons?

Clean the clubs with a soft, damp cloth after each use, avoiding abrasive cleaners. Periodically clean the grooves, especially on the wedges, with a groove cleaner or soft brush. Store them properly to prevent damage.

Troubleshooting

Reduced distance or ball speed

Ensure clubface is clean. Check for any obstructions in the club's path during the swing. If issues persist, consider a club fitting to ensure optimal shaft and loft.

Inconsistent ball flight

Verify proper setup and ball position. Ensure the turf interaction is clean; the dual-camber sole should help, but poor swing mechanics can still cause inconsistency. Consider a fitting for loft and lie adjustments.

Unsatisfactory feel at impact

The PurFlex cavity badge is designed to improve feel, but personal preference varies. If the feel is not meeting expectations, a professional fitting might help explore different shaft or grip options.

Wedges not spinning as expected

Ensure wedge grooves are clean and free of debris. Heavy dew or wet conditions can also reduce spin. For persistent issues, check the condition of the grooves and consider if they are worn.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional distance and forgiveness for super game-improvement players.
  • High launch characteristics make it easier to get the ball airborne.
  • Improved stability and ball speed retention on off-center hits.
  • Better turf interaction due to the wider dual-camber sole.
  • Consistent distance gapping throughout the set, especially with longer irons.

Cons

  • May offer less workability for advanced players seeking shot-shaping capabilities.
  • The larger head profile might not appeal to all golfers aesthetically.
  • Feel might be less traditional compared to blades or player's irons.
  • Super game-improvement design is geared towards a specific player type.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Ping G740 irons come with standard loft and lie angle configurations designed for a wide range of golfers. However, Ping is known for its extensive custom fitting options. It is highly recommended to get professionally fitted to ensure the correct lie angle, shaft length, and shaft flex for your unique swing. The available lofts include standard, PWR Spec (stronger lofts for more distance), and Retro Spec (weaker lofts for higher flight). The standard shaft is the PING ALTA CB, available in R, SR, and S flexes, with a Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 Black grip.

Compatibility: These irons are designed as a super game-improvement set, meaning they are most compatible with golfers seeking maximum assistance in terms of launch, distance, and forgiveness. They are available with both steel and graphite shafts. Custom options for shafts and grips are typically available to match individual player needs.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Ping G740 irons:

  1. Cleaning: After each use, wipe down the clubface and sole with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, sand, and grass. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
  2. Groove Maintenance: Periodically check the grooves on the clubfaces, especially the wedges. Use a groove cleaner or a soft brush to remove any packed debris that could affect spin performance.
  3. Storage: Store your clubs in a protective bag or headcovers when not in use to prevent scratches and dings. Avoid storing them in environments with extreme temperature or humidity fluctuations.
  4. Periodic Inspection: Check for any signs of damage, such as dents or loose ferrules. Address any concerns promptly with a qualified club fitter or repair service.
