I compare the new Titleist T150 iron against the Ping i230 iron in ahead to head players iron battle. Two great golf clubs, one forged and the other a solid iron from a traditional golf brand. This golf review video compares them both.

I currently have the i230s in the bag and they are by far my favorite irons I’ve ever gamed. My handicap is a +1 and before these I had the 2021 p770’s in the bag. Before that I had a combo set of JPX 921 tours and forged and I honestly think in my irons I’ll keep the 230s in the bag until the replacement for them comes out in 2 to 3 years and then I’ll upgrade to those. When it comes to consistency Ping absolutely have nailed it and that is what we are all looking for in Golf. Consistency is KEY
I have the p790 and wanted to switch to the i230, loved how the ping felt but I was losing more than 10 yards 😮 so I decided to stay with the p790
@@jed1775Curieux ces différences...le ping est plus long que le Taylor sauf le 770 t..🤭
Love my I230s. Very forgiving. Hit the t-150s and they are very similar to them and feel great. Sticking with my 230s
I have both sets. Ping is a little more forgiving but t150 looks better, goes higher (for me) and gets in and out of turf better.
Love to see the T-150 versus the Srixon ZX7's. I love to see someone finally do a comparison versus other irons with the T-150!
Agreeee💪🏽
I’d like to see that too along with the new Cobra CB.
Hit both of these recently at Roger Dunn… zx7 mkii way softer and workable. T150 felt more “Clicky” and faster off the face. Was looking to replace my newer ‘23 p790 set with the T150’s but the feel was just not there for me. Zx7 mkii’s still by far the best feeling and easiest set I’ve played all year and I’ve hit almost everything at this point on the Roger dunn shelf
The feel was good on the i230 to me, and I've warmed to the satin finish like Mizuno did on the 923 tour. My issue is upcharge for all the different shafts compared to the Mizuno. Great club though. At this place in the players cavity market I think you are looking for looks and shaft options. Nothing else. They all perform pretty similar.
Mike, just a suggestion but when you show something on the screen like the shot tracers from the golfers view, as at 6:54, or the screenshot of the data averages, keep them on the screen long enough to see what is actually being shown. I'd rather look at that longer than presented here. All too often I have to pause the video, or go back afterwards and find it to look at it again. Thanks. I do enjoy the videos and just trying to help you make them better.
Thanks for the feedback 👍
Very useful comparison. Thank you!
You hvae a 32 degree (T150) vs a 34 degree (i230). All things considered they are essentially the same. The Titleist are absolutely gorgeous to look at!
The i230 is 33 degrees, not 34 👍
Just hit them both on the range. No contest. The T150’s are amazing. Feel and distance wow. Mizuno 221’s are coming out of the bag. Thanks!
I’ve just got my T150s. Absolutely love them but the Pings are also impressive considering they are cast rather than forged. You can’t go wrong with any modern iron they are all very good.
Just ordered my i230’s. Tested indoors with good numbers then played 3 holes on course. Really nice club with control and great dispersion even from miss hits. Upgraded from Stealth irons
The T150 feel is crisp and satisfying but definitely not soft for a one piece forging like a Mizuno or Zx7. Still a great iron and definitely worth testing.
Can you compare the t100 and or the t150 vs the Cobra CB? I’d like to know if all that tungsten actually does anything. Thanks?
Great video Mike. How would you compare the forgiveness of the T150’s against the Mizuno Pro 223’s?
Would be interesting to throw the Apex Pro against the i230 as well
Just got fit into the T-150. Unbelievably good club
The head weight and balance in the T150 is nothing I’ve ever felt before. My order arrives this week.
I got fitted for them today and agree. Amazing feel. What shaft are you going with?
@@gregwinter8503 Went with AMT Tour White.
@@gregwinter8503got fitted for mine yesterday. Project X 6.5 shafts +3/4"
I love mine can’t complain. They interact out of the turf so clean. I love the feel off the center too (and for me they are still pretty workable seeming I came from t100 before these t150s)
Thanks for the video Michael, been waiting for this one . Both stellar clubs !
Going mixed set
Vokey SM9 in 50, 54, 60
T150 in Pw, 9i,
T200 in 8i, 7i,
T350 in 6i, 4i.
Michael, I have watched many of your videos over the years. Always comprehensive, fair, balanced and to the point. This comparison however prompted me to ask you why neither you, nor any other Utube Golf analyst ever includes comment on iron durability?
Take the player who is a real enthusiast as many who follow you are, who possibly aspires to a forged clubhead, yet is a frequent visitor to the practice ground with its attendant grassy / muddy / 'gritty ball' playing conditions, which are not kind re clubhead face wear.
Imagine that player buying a set of new or used MP18's, IMO the best blade ever made, and seeing severe wear on say his 9 - 6 irons within say a year and the attendant rust / rust removal issue, simply because of the soft carbon steel under the thin surface chrome layer. This despite best efforts to use different irons to spread the wear.
Not a problem if you have a thousand pounds to spend on irons every year. Most of us dont!
This particular video comparison SCREAMS out for your comment on the comparative durability of Forged Carbon Vs Stainless clubfaces, as an important differentiator in decision making, given how close these clubs were in your opinion for feel and sound.
How good and durable irons like the S55's have been over the years a case in point.
Something to think about?
I was fit this week. It came down to the T150 and the ZX7.
ZX7 look better
@@PH-kp7qx I went with zx7 because of the turf interaction
Which ones felt softer?
@@kane1928 equally soft imo. The ZX7 turf interaction is miles ahead of anything I hit. I hit T100 T150 P770 I230 Apex pro Cobra Tour. The sole on the ZX7 is technology I wouldn’t of believed in without seeing it myself
@@jasonnewberry4379 are you a steeper swinger? I had the previous ZX7s but had to move away from them because I’m a bit more shallow and the turf interaction was not something I cared for and it didn’t work well on firm turf, for me.
Titleist all day. I've played Titleist most of my golfing life, tried others, went back to Titleist, now I don't bother with other brands. The classic look, thinner topline, overall appearance and performance is hard to beat. Try them all and find what works for you! 👍
T150 vs ZX7 would be great to see!
Would you recommend using the bladed clubs first afyer playing cb clubs for years .i and interesting in playing them.i am a 12 handicap.
Not really surprising that the two are neck to neck on feel. Despite the forged pieces the T150 is a hollow body construction which makes the irons feel different from the one-piece forgings. The Ping has clearly a lot to go for it.
T200 is a hollow body. The 150 is not.
They got the tungsten in there somehow
@@jonmoyers7620what is it then? One-piece forged head? That's not what we can see on the Titleist website - head formed of two metal pieces welded together creating a hollow compartment where the tungsten weights are lodged. This is hollow body construction in my book, ad opposed to one-piece forged heads.
Head is one piece forged. Lower section gets tungsten added in the back and a stainless cap/cover is added. Same on the t100.
I absolutely love my t150!
it’s for like 10 handicappers?
Ping i230 for me as feel I can manufacture draw and fade
Put the i230 in the bag. Moving from Mizuno MP20 MB’s they don’t feel as soft but you can certainly get some impressive results from some god awful swings! 😂
I got fit for t150. They are great and I got free distance compared to my i59s. The i59s were better out of the toe.
I game the t150. Any hcp could game them. Strong lofted, forgiving. The best
Bryson shot a 58 with the i230. I don't see any pro's bagging a full set of T150's. I know what my choice is.
The titleist is unarguably softer; the metallurgy cannot lie. However, the sound the clubs make - now that can be different.
Very hesitant between t150, i230 and Mizuno 245. Do you have a comparison with 245?
These were my 3 choices as well. I went with the i230s. Just more consistent overall. I think the t150s felt a little softer and really wanted them, but the performance wasn’t the same. I was a Mizuno guy and just didn’t get along with the 245s. Too hot off the face.
Predicted the outcome before I watched
For what ping is asking for the I230 irons, they should be forged and not cast.
Got to be forged for me and no hollow irons either.
I really like this channel but one of these review channels needs to set the record straight. Forged is not synonymous with soft. Cast is not firm. The materials used are what gives the club its feel.
Victor Holland seems to like his i230s.😂 js
I probably would too getting paid x amount of millions to do so 😂
Victor doesnt play the i230 …..
Viktor Hovland plays i210 irons
He actually plays 210s still
Titleist will de-chrome easy and won’t be as durable. Reason I ordered i230 instead.
Once you play Ping you realise how good they are. T100 or 150 look like winners though.
Power spec that i230 and its king…
I tried the T150 on launch monitor, incredibly impressive design. Honestly I wouldn’t waste my time looking at any Ping iron. I’d compare T150 to the new Apex CB and Mizuno 243.
T150 I thought was reasonably soft feel and controllable though not comparable to my Miura’s. My big concern would be gapping them in a mixed set w/T100. The T150 lofts and hot face makes them crazy long but still high spin and steep descent angle. The 32* 7-iron, is full club stronger than my Miura 7, which is 36*, and averaged 20 yds longer but the spin was nearly equal; 10 swings with each my Miura 501 averaged 7120, the T160 6985. The T100 was being used by my buddy who was getting fitted on a pure T100 set. We talked about 6-9 T100 and 4-5 T150 but the T150 is not only 2* stronger the face seems hotter. Even weakening the T150 2* would seem to still have gapping issues. Maybe that’s not an issue for a mid-handicapper who’s strikes are less consistent but a good ball striker who can score wants to maintain the 12-15 yd gaps.
I enjoyed the T150 enough that I’m considering going to ‘dark side’ and getting fitted for a T100/T150 combo set, if we can work out the gapping. I honestly swore I’d never game any iron that isn’t a Miura, but those new Titleist’s are really solid sticks 👍
T100S
No surprises here
T150 by a mile i thought tbh
Yet the results show otherwise.
Ping i230 all day long. LOVE this club!!!!!
I just wish they had kept the tungsten screw out of the visible design. Not a fan of how all their irons are going to that look now.
@@BB-pg5klsmall matter. I think it was implemented in a clean manner
Great video Mike. How would you compare the forgiveness of the T150’s against the Mizuno Pro 223’s?
