- PING i59 Irons | REVIEW
In this video myself (Dan Hendriksen) and Lee Whittaker will be at Ashbury Resort to review the new Ping i59 irons.
I have used these clubs during a recent course vlog at Dartmouth but now would like to give you my thoughts but also some numbers from the GC Quad launch monitor.

Just received my i59's last week 6-W. I switched from the Blueprints to the i59's for just the touch of extra forgiveness. Absolutely love them. Zero fear of the "miss" where the ball comes up 5-10 yards short.
This review is more comprehensive than most, covering many aspects of the whole set, not just a seven iron. Thanks for all the information, always enjoy the channel.
PING really doesn’t make many mistakes do they?! So nice to look at. I like the 3 options for loft as well. Great idea! Nice to see a club review again Dan and good to see Lee as it had been a while 👍🏻
Totally agree with your comment on blades making you concentrate more . I've recently been fortunate enough to buy a set of Macgregor VIP Tourneys, 3-Gw, if you saw them you would think that someone bought these and could not use them so put them in the attic for years!they are in amazing condition and as you said when using the 3 and 4 you really do concentrate more ,it's like a training aid because as you know the clubs will either reward or punish you dependant on your strike but I'm so glad I got these because as an added bonus they look fantastic in the bag 🙌
I used to play them, they are nice clubs
Loved the review,thank you. I placed my order for a set today! Got my fitting done at Cool Clubs in SA and being the first time I've ever held a Ping club I fell in love after the first shot! They look and feel fantastic!!! The sound they made in the studio was very cool as well...lol! Love the content. Keep it up! Cheers
Great looking irons, I am a high handicapper and my most bladed irons are my 716 Ap2s. Nice review as I appreciate Lee’s way of looking at clubs and his honesty.
Even before seeing the vlogs, this may be on the bucket list for me and my two lads as one of our "Bus Tours" 👍🏌♂️👍
Comment should have gone on the IOW preview video 🤣🤣
Great review gents. Really enjoyed that. Loved the fact that it was ‘real’ ball visuals rather than studio data. Makes a massive difference. Good to see Lee. Looking really well buddy, looking very trim as well dude.
Started my golf with Ping, flirted with Mizuno but have gone home to Poppa with some Ping i200s, fantastic company with great customer service, maybe Dan could have mentioned a price point, but I suppose the chaps who want these beauties don't worry about budgets. Thought Lee brought some credible thoughts to this review too, keep the momentum going Dan.
Nothing like hitting a bladed iron flush , You can feel the compression off the face , I played Wilson DynaPower bladed irons in the late 1970's as a teenager. I absolutely loved the feeling when you flushed a 4 iron. These Pings look sweet
Lovely looking iron. Have played i500 for the last couple years and really love them but recently went to a fitting as my coach saw potential in perhaps a set that allow more shot shaping. Tried the i59, gorgeous to look at and really wanted them to be the right club for me, but sadly I couldn't do them justice to be honest. I ended up with a fitting for T100-S which should turn up mid October (hoping the savings over the i59 might allow me to spend a bit more on lessons over the winter ready for next season).
I think these are more aspirational than usable for my level… but a beautiful looking club!
Brilliant vlog Dan and Lee enhanced the review as well 🍀
If Dan’s going to have a plaque saying he chipped in for a 59 here, Bernie should have one saying he duffed a chip into a bunker here, here, here and here… and here and here 🤣
I have today dan once again great review and I do like the look of the ping i59’sand if I was in the market for new clubs they would be ones that are on the list
I believe Ping bends the irons from the standard loft which effectively changes the bounce on the retro and power spec. No?
Absolutely loved the format of this review Dan - informative and entertaining to boot! Great input from Lee - thank you! Cheers, Benno
Hey Dan, I currently play the i210 irons and are absolutely fantastic club, looked at the i59 recently and they are above my ability. I would not change my irons any time soon.
Beautiful 🤩 irons. 😮 Love them. Great to see Lee back on the channel. Always smiling, always joking about his own ability. Great review guys, well done.
Great review Dan, love your approach to club reviews, not the typical smashing balls into a screen, the titliest one was especially good and different going to a fitting day and getting views from players being fitted. Notice you didn't mention the price of the Ping's 🤔
They are very expensive for no real reason
I have callaway razr x forged from early 2010's with similar grooves, really hard to keep clean.
The boys are buzzin!
Very thorough review 👍🏻
I've been a ping iron guy for a long time, and it's time for a new set, but I think I'm going with the TaylorMade P770s instead just to get something more forgiving. I've had Mizuno blades in the past and they can be harsh if you're not striking the ball well.
I'm on the fence though, admittedly. These are sharp.
Like the video and the general feel with the iron set👍
They look gorgeous, and if your review is anything to go by Dan, feel gorgeous too. But then you look at the price tag 👀. I'll stick with my Wilsons. Great review guys.
I like what you did there ,testing the i 59 where you had a 59.
😉
Good job it wasn't T100 then...
Beautiful looking clubs ,but I would not change from my mizuno mp59 cant be much different,!!!!.all good if you have the money 👊🏴⛳
Good video...insightful, varied, pretty course...well done
As usual a great review and really enjoyed the way you undertake the review. Only little issue is that it would be nice if there was a bit more club reviews for those of us who are at a higher HCP . Although I really enjoyed the review I would never be able to actually play with bladed clubs.
Another nice and comprehensive review Dan, although I do have one suggestion if I may.
These clubs show how exceptional Ping are at engineering a multi material head to perform as close as possible to a pure single material forged head. The true test of their achievements would only truly be seen by comparing this iron to the iron which they are trying to replicate, the blueprint. Also, when you show the very subtle data differences in launch angle and spin rates, can you show us the club data to show that speed and dynamic loft are matched? Comparing to your own irons is difficult to compare because perhaps your own irons are a quarter inch shorter with a different swing weight etc.
A similar review could be done for the T100 against the MB. These are aimed at players in the top 2% of players from their respective countries so the devil is in the detail.
Just a thought 👍
Hi Craig, thanks for this, Lee and I are meeting up tomorrow to do a few compares and we plan to put these up against a few other blades 👍
Anybody who has shot a 59 this year, should absolutely be playing the i59’s, come on Dan, you know it makes sense
Love the look of these, but think I will keep my I500in my bag, I need that extra help
Dan, you should never say your content is free of charge. I notice over the years a lot of UK people say that. And it's not free of charge, it's costing me my time. Great channel!!
In the last few weeks I have spoken to many people over here that ask how much it will cost them to sub to the channel, there is no financial cost other than as you say (time) 👍
Great review love the detail and the insight makes me want to go any try them tbh but do you think they are for a midhandicapper
Hey Dan I play the i500 at the moment.. thinking of put the i59 in the bag. Hcp 6,1 what do you think…? Would it fit me..?
They are a great looking and feeling iron, they are not a hard club to hit so give them a good test 👍
There's only one issue - price. In the UK, the online price is ~£1,330 for 5 - PW. By comparison, the Blueprint irons are £1,399 (4 - PW). Its a lot of money for only 6 clubs in the i59.
Dan you mention about when testing new irons to get out on the course… how’s this really possible when choosing a new iron? There isn’t a dealer I know that allows you to take them out.
I hear the arguments for blades but you have several pros including Lee Westwood who play a more forgiving club(i210) so I really don't understand why a single digit hc golfer or even a club pro wouldn't want the extra forgiveness? I'm not wanting my iron shot dropping short in the water just for a little extra feed back.
I agree with this. I was a club pro in my early twenties. At one point I switched over to some Mizuno butterknife blades and although you could definitely work the ball more and all that, it wasn't worth the tradeoff. There were always 2 or 3 shots a round where I'd mishit it slightly and wind up 10 yards short or something.
I like the transitional irons more. You pretty much need to be tour level to be hitting dead center every freaking time.
Nice video, great review.
Does ping produce 3 different heads? Or do they just bend them? I had the impression they bent the heads to the spec requested.
Nice review Ping are quality clubs, these have been anticipated for some time.
The pricing however is way to high
I’m pretty sure they produce 3 different heads to work the bounce correctly 👍
Would be great to confirm with Ping as most I have talked to believe they are bent unlike the Titleist t100/100s
Great clubs but to difficult to use for a one week golfer 👍👍
If you can afford them, ping going to be the new expensive pxg the way they are going with their pricing
To expensive , i bought the Cobra King forged tec & have no regrets.
You guys do realize that i59's aren't cast in standard, power and retro lofts, right? They all start at standard and are BENT (using Ping's hammer method) to spec.
Have Ping ever made a bad iron? I only wish I was good enough to play blades, they would go straight into my bag.
It’s a good point Barry, I would say no, but maybe the G700 was a little extreme but probably worked well for many 👍
@@DanHendriksenGolf - Bernie likes his Ping iron, even if it is older than him😂
i59's or p770?
Nice clubs but I am not sure if the lady of the house would appreciate my taking out an additional mortgage to buy these…😀
😂
Dan, how do these compare to the i210s?
Good question, let’s look at it 👍
You forget the price. Probably the most defying character
Very expensive
I try not to mention price because it changes so much from month to month and then country to country 👍
As Dan said where has that gone. Stupid balls cannot see a thing.. Not a good review in my opinion. Love Ping as well.
Ah, the millionaires club. Utterly ridiculous cost.
nice on-course review. studios are boring.
