Anyone else have them tried them? I just got a set. Had a layoff of a few years and replaced my Nike's that were 15yrs old. They look great and hit on the sweet spot I like the click sound they make. How do you feel the miss hits compare to a set of true game improvement irons like the Mavrik's, G710's or Sim Max. Wondering if the Forged Face plate makes for a harder feel. Didn't notice when testing. They were head and shoulders on feel and launch numbers. Just curious how others likem.
Ping I500's
You can find a thread or two on them here on the forum. I think the general consensus is that they perform well, but that their sound/feel is somewhat lacking compared to others in the same class of irons.
I’ve had mine for a year and love them. The sound takes some getting used to. At least for me it did. But overall very happy with them. On miss hits they can be a bit punishing. Not terrible like a blade but not like a GI iron either. Kind of between.

Agree with above. Love mine, especially how high I hit the long irons.
Im playing the I500’s and also have a set of G710’s. I prefer the I500’s over the 710’s but just like any other GI iron the 710’s are a bit more forgiving. I dont mind the sound the i500’s make, I dont play for sound. The I500’s feel really smooth and my accuracy seems better with them over others Ive played.

Agree. Long and look great but some of worst feeling irons around.
