    My son, a golfer with a 4 handicap, just graduated from college with a business degree and just got his first fulltime job with PING America (Arizona) building clubs. He is a Mizuno Iron guy
    but now that's he's building PING Clubs and testing clubs he is in love with the Blueprint S Irons. He wanted to start at the bottom with PING in manufacturing so he will know the product so
    he can sell the product and is loving what he is seeing from the manufacturing level. As they (PING) guide his progress, He will move into customer service then PINGS fitting department,
    learning each department at PING. As Ian says he has to learn everything about PING Products to promote/sell PING Products.
    When my son Ian was 8 years of age, he first golf instructor was a European Pro sponsored by PING & personal friend of Karsten Solheim (PING Founder) In Phoenix Arizona. At the age of 16,
    Ian got his first custom fitting for new clubs at PING Phoenix, and now he's working for PING. Talk about full circle.
    He swears by the new PING Blueprint S Irons and he's scores seem to prove his commitment to them.
    Big Smile😊

    I've gone all out on Ping for 2024. Current range is amazing. My witb is
    430 LST
    430 max 3 wood
    430 3hy
    4_GW I230 power spec
    Glide 4 54 and 58
    LAB Link 1 putter
    Irons so much more consistent, for distance especially. The fitting centre is an amazing experience.

      I just got fit for the Blueprint S. Coming from some 716 AP2s. I’ve been fully converted brother. Omg these irons. AP2s and T100s I was over spinning. The Blueprint S upright 2 degrees was an absolute perfect match. I also hit the Mizuno 243s like shit and these were wayyyy better feeling. Ping iron squad ✊

    I'm glad you finally decided to go with something more forgiving. Along with you choosing Ping. I started with Ping Zing originals from Junior Golf to Men's Club in my late 20s. I upgraded to the Ping i-E1 irons a couple years ago. And I've been pleased with my choice. Ping just makes great irons! And their fitting system is the best.

Do you think it's worthwhile considering a thicker grip? He's on a standard size just now. Keep up the great work. Thanks

At 33 even tho not old from work and hockey and golf all life i have a lot of wrist pain and stuff acting up and for sure mid size helps me a lot i switched couple yrs back and i have bigger hands so i just tend to do better and im not reaching for the club like a standard grip size

    Hi pete and the team. Just a thought. In a lot of spheres on RUclips but not in golf, at the end of series like this one a long format edit of the video series is made as a final edition video including the first to the last video strung together in a long form “movie” this helps content creators generate additional revenue , but also an enjoyable long watch for those who enjoy longer format viewing like myself. I would still watch the series but if I fall behind or I find an old series in the future it makes it much easier to get up to date as I can cast it to my tv and not have to keep searching for additional videos. Keep up the great work and love the channel

  • @adamw9764
    @adamw9764 Год назад +1

    Love this series, Pete! i played the Miura MB101 blades (4-PW) for about 2 season, best feeling iron I have ever hit but zero forgiveness. I ended up trying the i230's and loved them so much that I ordered a set (4-PW) about 8 months ago. Then the blueprint T/S line came out.....tried both the T and the S and found that the lower irons were INCREDIBLE in the T and ended up getting 7-PW in the Blueprint T and keeping the i230 in 4-6.
    Awesome video, Pete! Really looking forward to more Build My Bag!

  • @TaroZak

    Funny thing is, I was recently fit into the Cobra CB irons. Basically the same fitting process as what you went through just with a different brand. Need to get the lie angles adjusted because the CB’s are 2 degrees flatter than the Forged Tec (clubs I was playing( for some reason.

    Any insight into why Pete fits into a 1-3 degree upright club based on the height and wrist to floor, but the fitter starts him out 2 degrees flat? I know Pete normally plays flat, but shouldn't the fitting start at zero and confirm past selections were right or wrong rather than assuming they were right?

  • @skrak13
    @skrak13 11 месяцев назад

    I fit these clubs every day at work. The BP T irons are the best irons PING has ever produced. The BP S, maybe has 7% larger sweet spot, but ball speeds are much more consistent. The feel on the S isn't near what the T offers, but yes Pete chose the right irons to give him just a little more confidence on days he doesn't have his A game!

    I wish, 20yrs ago, that I had got customed fitted for the Blade i3 irons instead of buying my Titleist 981s of the rack. I have had always had a niggle, What If? And as a golfer that is one terrible niggle. Don't get me wrong, the 981s are a great club, (open championship winning club). My first set of irons were my dads Walter Hagan Ultradyne II's, With the Twist in the shaft, quite a large head but it would be classed as a muscleback rather than a blade, and I loved them, but as people would tell me the clubs were a early 80s iron and 'playing' in the 90s, played St Andrews off the box Tees which was still longer than my Course at Lanark, and broke 80 before I broke 80 at Lanark.
    I am now considering changing my Titleists for something more forgiving, do you go down the road of picking brand then getting the irons that suit within the 'range' and going with the best irons and as you say take the ego out of it. It is just can the bank balance cope with the price tag.

    Nice video again boys. Well done Pete, keep the faith with your workouts.
    And when shopping for clubs, now you can tick that box that says 'I confirm I have undergone a face-to-face custom PING fitting'.

    Those ping irons looks really nice. I like my mizunos but if these irons were available when I did my fitting these would have been a strong contender. Looking forward to see them in action specially against the young ones in the states.

    PING is the one brand that I could have ALL of their clubs in my bag. They are an engineering company and have been at it for a long, long time. Extraordinarily well engineered clubs. That BluePrint S looks amazing. TXG (Ian) was just hitting the G430 max in a video and contemplating that driver head for his build the bag series.

    Evening. I wonder if someone or even you Mr Finch. If you can tell me the difference between a custom fitting for irons at a pro shop or American golf. Rough price £50-£80. And going somewhere like Precision golf, which specialises in custom golf fitting, rough price £250+ for irons.
