What GolfWRXers are saying about Ping’s i210 irons

Published

on

In our forums, our members have been discussing Ping’s i210 irons with WRXer ‘Prov1Xercist’ considering a change to the clubs. Per ‘Prov1Xercist’:

“I’m currently in i-20s with KBS tour stiff. Looking at i210s. My typical miss is a little off the toe, and I play a draw. If anything, I would like a little more trajectory as I tend to be a lower ball player. I definitely prefer the KBS to any true temper or rifle shaft I’ve tried. I don’t know my iron swing speed, but I hit my eight iron 155.

Based on this information will I like the i210s? If so, should I stay with the KBS tour or look at other shaft options to try to get more trajectory?”

And our members have been sharing their thoughts on the matter in our forum.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

  • hammergolf: “You should hit the i210 irons higher than i20. The i210 is a really forgiving head with high launch and slightly lower spin rate. They will definitely feel softer than your old irons also. I don’t think you cloud go wrong using the same shaft you have before, but really you should get fit to see your best option.”
  • High Draws Low Fades: “I play a draw and miss off the toe with my i210s like you. Also, need some help with height in the long irons. They’ve been great for me!”
  • Nessism: “Your 6 iron swing speed is likely in the mid-upper ’80s. i210’s are awesome. About as forgiving as an iron of its size can be. I think you would be safe to order some with the KBS Tour shafts. PX LZ shafts might also be worth a try since they are a no cost option and have similar weight and trajectory characteristics. They feel quite different from conventional PX shafts so don’t let the name put you off. In terms of “go get fitted” is concerned, it seems to me that your long past history of using i-series Ping’s is enough to put you in i210’s safely. Shafts are mostly about weight and feel. Some demo’s in a hitting stall so you can judge feel for yourself should provide reasonable assurance for an order.”
  • Argonne69: “I’m a low ball hitter w/ low spin, and I was fit with the i200’s (Retro lofts 2 degrees weak) with TT XP95 shafts. The XP95 is a high launching shaft with high spin. I previously played KBS Tour and Nippon 950GH’s, and the TT stacks up well against them. I hit my 8 iron 155 yds (total). As noted, the i210 is a little lower launching than the i200s. Perhaps you should consider the i200s. ‘Very little difference in feel IMO. The i210s may be a tad softer.”
  • Dayjobdave: “I don’t know if this helps, but when I was fitted for my i200’s my final choice on shafts was between the KBS and TT DG300s. I went with the TT because I’ve had them previously with good success, but honestly, I spent hours on the range hitting 7 irons with one of each that my pro set me up with, going back and forth, and I loved them both. I truly almost bought two sets because I couldn’t decide which I liked better. Even now a couple of years later remembering this, I’m laughing as during the test I said “this is the one” on each shaft at least a dozen times. If you like KBS shafts, I’m pretty sure you’ll love the i210’s with them.”

GolfWRX Members Choice presented by 2nd Swing: Best driver of 2025

Published

on

We’re proud to once again partner with 2nd Swing Golf to bring you GolfWRX Members Choice 2025! 2nd Swing has more than 150,000 new and pre-swung golf clubs available in six store locations and online. Check them out here

What is the best driver in 2025? At GolfWRX, we take great pride in our online community and the cumulative knowledge and experience of our members. When it comes to the best driver of 2025, we want to know what our forum faithful think.

Since our founding in 2005, the bedrock of GolfWRX.com has been the community of passionate and knowledgeable golfers in our forums, and we put endless trust in the opinions of our GolfWRX members — the most knowledgeable community of golfers on the internet. No other group of golfers in the world tests golf clubs as frequently or as extensively, nor is armed with such in-depth information about the latest technology.

Below are the results of GolfWRX member voting for the 2025 best driver, along with the vote percentage for each club.

Best driver of 2025: The top 5

5. Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond: 6.02%

Callaway’s pitch: “For golfers looking for a fast, forgiving, yet workable driver, the Elyte Triple Diamond features a tour-inspired shape and is the preferred model by most Callaway tour players.”

You can read what other golfers are saying about the driver in the GolfWRX forums, and see our launch piece here. Shop the Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond here.

4. Ping G440 Max: 6.86%

Ping’s pitch: “The most forgiving G440 model, MAX has a hotter face to generate speed and distance, and a lighter overall system weight with a longer shaft (46″) for faster clubhead speed, higher launch and longer carries. The Free Hosel and Carbonfly Wrap crown save weight to create our lowest CG ever and increase forgiveness while contributing to a more muted, pleasing sound.”

3. Ping G440 LST: 9.53%

Ping’s pitch: “LST is an especially good fit for faster swings, offering less spin and more control with a penetrating trajectory. A hotter face, lighter overall system weight and longer shaft (46″) deliver more speed and distance while maintaining tight dispersion.”

@phizzy30: “Not a fan of Ping drivers in general, but 440 LST takes the cake. It’s super forgiving across the face for a low spin head, looks and sounds good and the ability to make it play neutral or slightly fade biased through the hosel settings is very appealing.”

2. Titleist GT3: 16.55%

Titleist’s pitch: “The GT3 Driver offers Titleist’s boldest combination of power and personalization through adjustable performance. Dial in the CG Track to your frequent contact location to make your biggest drives even bigger while taking total control over flight and shaping.”

@mrmikeac: “I’ve been Anti-Titleist for years and years and years (outside of Vokey, of course). With that being said, HOLY BEGEEZUS the GT3 driver is an absolute NUCLEAR MONSTER! This thing blew my G430 10K Max out of the water in every single category. Forgiveness is the biggest thing that stands out of me, the 3 model has always been one of the less forgiving models in the past but this GT3 can take bad shot after bad shot and still end up in the fairway, I think a ton of that has to do with the adjustability, it’s actually effective. Feel and sound is perfect, that solid crack is so addicting to hear and when you hit it out the screws this thing can absolutely bomb it. Titleist, I’m sorry for doubting you. You have converted me.”

1. Titleist GT2: 22.91%

Titleist’s pitch: “Delivering impressive distance from any impact point, the Titleist GT2 Driver extracts maximum performance through a forgiving design. Get the stability and added confidence of a high-MOI driver without sacrificing speed.”

@DTorres: “The Titleist GT2 has proven to be the best driver of the year. Packaged in a classic profile, GT2 perfectly balances performance and forgiveness while consistently being a high performer across all categories.”
