PING i210 IRONS

[@gregboggs4721]

Mark I’ve watched you for years and I truly think this is the best non biased review of any product that you’ve ever done. Thanks for your contributions to the golfing world.

[@kylejeffery89]

Wayyyy late on this, but I was just custom fit into i210s and they're just phenomenal. Mark, your PING reviews were what pushed me towards them as my custom fitter of choice. Always such an honest brand with an engineering focus on things that actually work. It always shows how much you respect their approach.

[@mrbigg2u]

I bought these a month ago 2nd hand on eBay. They are peachy and really encourage me to improve. Lovely honest no fuss review Mister Crossfield as per!

[@gbright9986]

I have the i 200 I don’t think I would change. I do like my clubs very much. The fit and finish is so clean. I think the more I play with them the better they look. My handicap was about 24 when I got fit and ordered my clubs. I am sitting at 18 4 months later. I know they have helps me to improve my path and strikes.

[@davidtasker6663]

gbright99 great to read! I’m off 18 currently and really want a set of i210

[@V1enthusiast]

Just picked up a set of i210. Have yet to play them. Love the review. Thanks.

[@lawbinson]

How did you like them?

[@V1enthusiast]

@@lawbinson love them. Just reshafted them to adapt to my changing swing.

[@lawbinson]

@@V1enthusiast glad to hear. I had a set a while ago with shafts that were too heavy. Having another go at it with some lighter shafts.

[@tony1putt]

Mark, I have enjoyed many of your videos this summer. I took your advice and tried many irons, with different fitters. Found one fitter I was comfortable with and narrowed my selection to Mizuno JPX 919 forged and Ping i 210. Today I placed my order for the Pings. I considered adding a Ping 500 for a 5 iron, but ultimately decided just keep them all i 210. My Rinky Dink is Callaway Steelhead 7 wood. It fills a gap in my game that no other club can do. Thanks for all the great advice.

[@rmkep]

Update: I've been playing the i210's now for a week and have played several rounds on different course layouts and conditions. The i210's have been stellar. I don't know if this is just a honeymoon period or they really are that good. Yesterday I played a very tight par 70 mountain course with big elevation changes and many blind second shots. I was hitting the driver the best I have in years and had many wedges or short irons into the green from the blue tees (approx 6K yds). My best score on this course had been 74 (I'm a six index) and I shot a 5 under 30 (3 consecutive birdies and an eagle) on the back nine with a couple of missed under 10' birdie putts. Combined with a one over 36 on the front I shot 66 which is one less than my age! I haven't shot in the 60's since my college playing days back in the 70's and never went that low then so to say this round came as a surprise is a huge understatement. DId the i210's have anything to do with it? I can say that I love the look feel of them and I was very confident over the ball. The fast pace of play helped (played in 3.5 hours) but it was the best round of my life and suffice to say, the i210's have earned a spot in my bag ... ;-)

[@CraigalFun]

You still loving the irons mate?

[@talkymctalkface5388]

Just ordered a set of these, had a fitting, moving from forged Mizunos to the 210, have to say based on the fitting alone very impressed and can’t wait for the call to say they are in. Feel is comparable to the forged mizunos and hopefully a bit more forgiveness.

[@keithwilisky1456]

Just put my order in for these i210’s, putting my s55’s out to pasture. Thanks for the great review Mark.

[@chrisreynolds6982]

How do you find the i210's? I am currently using s56's for the last 10 years and thinking about upgrading

[@karlwoolley9092]

Well I’ve been thinking about getting these irons for a little while and I thought, who better than MC to offer an honest opinion. As ever you’ve nailed it. No nonsense, no endless tech so no doubt I’ll be going for a fitting. Thanks as always Mark.

[@eyeontime6136]

I ended up trading in my G410s for the I210 when I felt how good the Glide wedges were and I absolutely love them. I'm so glad I did.

[@biggeecee359]

I’ve just done exactly the same today. Got the G410’s early last year but once I added the Glide 3 wedges a few months later I knew I needed that feel in my irons. Tested the 210’s and i500’s and there was no contest in the feel stakes - 210’s were far better - and dispersion was super tight. Also tried the P790’s which I found every bit as good as the 210’s but couldn’t see the value in the extra £200+ cost.

[@rmkep]

Great review Mark. I just received my i210 iron set this morning and played them for the first time this afternoon. These are replacing an Apex CF16 combo set that I've been playing for 2 years. After watching this review and several others, I tested the the i210's along with the i500's and Mizuno Mp-18sc. The feel, sound and flight of the i210's best suited me and I ordered them that day. The club fitter told me that I needed 1" over length, mid size grips 2 degrees up and reg flex. I'd been playing 1.5 over, std grips, o degrees and stiff shafts based upon a Callaway fitting 2 years ago.. i'm of the mind that it's the indian, not the arrow so my expectations were tempered. As usual, I hit some good shots (most) and some not so good shots (a few) typical of a 6 index player. The larger grip and slightly shorter shaft require some adjustments and a few range sessions to get totally comfortable with them but I believe these will do the job very nicely. The look great behind the ball and inspire confidence. The sound and feel are just what I wanted and they allow me to get a bit creative with my shot making which makes the game more fun. They aren't longer than the Apex's but that was not my priority. Thanks again for the review and sorry I didn't test Titleist ;-). They just didn't appeal to me and I know you're cool with that. That is why I respect your subjective opinions and test data. With your Vlogs, blogs and equipment tests, you're providing valuable services for the golf community and I enjoy supporting you in those efforts. Cheers, Rob

[@joewillywalker6616]

Just picked up a set and after two rounds, I’ll say they are fantastic clubs! I’ve found the perfect amount of forgiveness in these. Still a fairly smaller head and reasonably thin top line, with an ascending offset as you get into the longer irons. It’s exactly what I need as a 9 HCP who wanted forgiveness and playability in one.

[@danielc114]

I have i200’s and love them, doesn’t look like major changes but some to help feel and fine tuning, but thinking as I watch this....get in my bag!

[@tjriordan77]

I currently play the Ie1’s . I will be calling up my local shop and setting up a fitting for the i210’s, might be a birthday gift to myself.

[@markvaughan3153]

Hit the i210 Saturday, feels like butter of the face! I play the G25 and will be ordering these after a good shaft fitting. Thanks for the review Mark, always my go to before getting a new club!

[@dsfarag]

I love Mark’s reviews. Raw and straight to the point with real scenarios. Keep it up bruh.

[@davepoulsen1007]

Bought some today, went in to purchase MP20 and left wit these, first time out of Mizuno in a decade, now the wait for them to arrive

[@jamesb2808]

just ordered mine really impressed - hit a number of shots at the fitting and distacne control was very good even though strikes launch etc were different - chose thes eover AP3

[@Calens001]

I own a set of the i200s, and honestly - they are far and away the best clubs I have owned. Going from 'longer' irons (XR16 Pros)to something I can rely on for distance and spin relative to strike has made me understand my own game a hell of a lot more. I was happy to sacrifice the 'distance' per iron in order to achieve the kind of control I have got now. Phenomenal irons. Great review. Would love to see a comparison between the i200s and the i210s.

[@njweb]

Got fitted for these yesterday, ping wasn't top of my wanted list but hit these ones the most consistently by far, tick every box for me. 9 days for build can't wait 😎

[@MrMalditor]

Very similar the the I e1 series irons I have. I am still very happy with mine. These do look a little nicer though.

[@mb28540]

I think this is the most positive review I have seen about a set of clubs. There was never a "but" about any aspect. I am excited to try these.

[@roberthall61]

Have a set on order! Plus 2 Glide 3.0 wedges. Modus shafts, 2 deg. up, STD length.

[@genotone]

Good call out with the U wedge. Ping are one of the few offering a more player like club that has a matched gap wedge available. Ping irons are made to last, they stay in players bags for a lonnnnnnnng time. One less wedge to replace if its holding up with the set

[@waynepadley1337]

I’m 63 and off 14 at the moment. My swing speed is very low but I can play these ! They have a fair bit of forgiveness and feel lovely and soft. They cut through the turf better than game improvement chunkies !

[@oldfoggie123]

Why do we need any other clubs?......they go the distance they are supposed to and they feel great!...why oh why do we need clubs that go further than we want!...it beats me!...great review Mark and only 2 dislikes...the regular dislikers must be getting bored!

[@neildixon3833]

Just tested and been fitted for a set of these at my club. Awesome. Will def be ordering.

[@seanward2883]

Just been looking at a set of ping i210 at Gainsborough golf course.

[@pauldronfield5248]

This has just popped up on my feed, loved watching it again and feeling chuffed after five years to still be playing these bad boys. Since then I’ve tried the i500, i525, i59, i230 just to see and the i210’s just keep saying bring them on. Awesome clubs 🩵

[@konradbidwell8363]

I have been playing AP 2s for years and I can honestly say ping have upped their game massively with the whole range of clubs they offer over the last couple of years. I will hopefully get a bash at these to see what I think. PS I hated the old Ping offset huge head irons they used to have but now they look 🍬

[@joej2435]

Tried the 1210's vs the i500's this day and ordered the I210's on the spot. I swing 75 mph with a 5i and play off of a 12 hdcp ordered them with Ping awt 2.0 reg shafts +1/2 inch White color code. Didn't even both to check my numbers on a monitor as I saw all I needed to see as I demo them on a nice grass range. I'm excited to finally find a easy hitting, consistent, lovely looking set of irons going forward. I traded in my G700 irons for these.Other than the distance that I was getting from the G700 irons, to me, the G700's were as tasteless and boring as eating a mixture of Corn Flakes and water.

[@joeperez3520]

I always include the "U" Wedge when I purchase a set of PING irons. It's the most lofted club that I use for "full" shots, and I'm comfortable, at address, that the club looks similar to the others. Custom SHAAAAAHHHHP!!!

[@waynepadley1337]

I’m well pleased. Took a little while to get used to them. The feel is more knifey ? Taking a divot is easier than with the chunky models. I get good feedback if strike is not out the middle. They are more forgiving than expected and feel really good. Hope this helps mate !

[@peteratherton897]

Great review as usual Mark. I’ve never really liked the look of Ping irons in the past, although I’ve always totally respected them as a brand and what they’re about, but now the i200, i210, i500, glide wedges and the G400 max drivers all look amazin, definitely on my radar now, thanks Ping and thanks again Mark 🏌️‍♂️👍

[@dan.downing]

Mark chips a beauty, then picks up the ball like its nothing, at 7:37, and chats it up right at the camera. That's some good stuff right there.

[@davidtasker6663]

So turns out I ended up getting these after much debating. I was a little concerned that people class them a players iron given I’m an 18 handicapper however, these are by far the best irons I have ever owned. They are more forgiving than I realised. I’m not normally confident enough to hit 4 iron anywhere but would I was pulling it out more than ever and didn’t miss a fairway. These go really well with my new glide 3.0 wedges and overall I am mega happy. First time I used them and come 5th white medal which was a great start. Would have won had I been able to put. Highly highly recommend these!

[@Cicnaz]

I have gamed Ping s57 for a long time. Feel that these clubs are a newer version of mine. Love my irons and don't see a reason to change until the grooves are gone.

[@willism6167]

I just got fitted for these and they are amazing clubs

[@christophervasquez4715]

Just got fitted for mine! Can’t wait to game them.

[@mitchellsimonet298]

Mark I think you should have mentioned how ping has different loft selections for their irons. Retro, Standard, and Power spec lofts. They are really the only company that offers different stock lofts.

[@Nobbbler1992]

I was fitted for these on Saturday, it was time to replace the old Mizuno Mx-100's... they just tipped the ap3's which where a bit to strong for me, can't wait to get them in my bag 😬🙌🏼

[@TheCOGolfer]

As someone who games the i20's, these look interesting. Might be enough difference to make the upgrade worthwhile.

[@paulmyers8606]

Very impressive review. I like reviews done on the course, not in the booth. They are more realistic. The mat is one thing, the grass is another. I love the Ping iBlade wedges that I have. Seems like I have trimmed a stroke per hole because of them.

[@matthewcurley5977]

I got these coming. I can’t wait. Nice to know that Ping can re dot them if need be

[@chrisoz4929]

I have the i200 irons and am very happy with them. I guess that these are a small step forward, but not enough to purchase new. Always liked Ping; good review Mark

[@blindsquirrel3123]

I’m hoping Ping released the new model end of this year. I’m still playing i10 irons

[@BigRobinho]

Mark, how long will the elastomer material in the clubs last? Isn't the elastomer some form of rubber? Will it harden or/and dry? Will the clubs feel just as good after 5-10 years?

[@stuartgogay485]

hi mark , the dry ball dater showed just 12 yards between the 7 and 5 .

[@tomduckworth8335]

I really like the updates to the looks right now I play Srixon Z565 and have no problems with them but I can't help but really want a set of these Pings I do like what Ping stands for with their clubs. Well done reviews on both this and the i500 your affection for Ping shows through and shows you can still do fair reviews and be a Titleist staffer. I don;t see how anyone could look at Pings lineup and not be impressed with their clubs.

[@danieljohnson450]

I play Mizuno JPX 900's, very similar clubs I think based on your description. I would definitely play these Pings....

[@dan.downing]

The PING i series is hands-down my favorite series of clubs over the last few years. I play a set of 2014 i e1 Irons and I am having a really hard time parting with them, even though the i210s have improved on them in every way. I am not quite ready for the precision striking required of the PING Blueprints (even though I want them badly, im just not there yet), but you get a lot of the same "feels" off of the i series.

[@NH-7]

Great review Mark, always enjoy your videos ... long shot but you hear of an I210 replacement in 2021??

[@peteraloisio3533]

They certainly are a sharp looking set of clubs. Great review.

[@jonathangriffiths758]

Great review Mark lovely looking clubs I currently game the g400s will have to try these though

[@davidrichard4300]

First off, thanks for going out on a Sunday...most followers know that Sunday is normally your family day. Also as a follower, Ping is one that you have always given good reviews. With that said, do you feel it is better marketing the way Ping does it...only coming out every 2 years and not changing that much?

[@seanmullins5982]

David Richard great question David. I too always wondered why so many people (generally middle aged and older) have always loved Ping. Personally, I cannot speak to their performance, but I was never EVER able to look at any of their offerings without getting sick to my stomach, (until maybe 3 years ago, when the S55 came out.). I know looks are subjective, but I mean can't we all agree that Ping has always made some of the most hideous clubs out there, yet they always sold, and sold good. So I'm really intrigued on knowing what it is that put Ping on the map with such great success... i understand the Eye2's truely were something revolutionary, but like they're G5-30 offerings or even I3-30's. Are they that good that people would actually purchase something so off putting? Please share the light with me 🤔💡

[@konradbidwell8363]

Sean Mullins completely agree loads of the older generation I have played with had the huge offset chunky pings that looked horrendous but now they do some sleek looking clubs.

[@majorsmythe1]

Yes- the look is not that great. The thing though with PING irons is they work- real good. GREAT dispersion and accuracy and very forgiving. I love Mizuno and Titleist blades, but I have to admit I have shot some of my best rounds with PING irons, and at the end of the day the scorecard could care less how good your irons look.

[@NickAChristian]

I just recently was fitted for a new set of irons. I am a 12 handicap, but my irons have always been my strength. I went into my fitting thinking I'd end up with something from TaylorMade since I've used their clubs for the past 15 years. I have always hated the look of ping irons for the same reasons you have mentioned but the look of the I210 is amazing and the feel is soft. These clubs are def worth a look if your searching for a player type iron that also provides great feel and forgiveness. Just my 2 cents.

[@Struieboy]

Great review. I’ve been thinking about buying the 210s and this is the confirmation I needed.

[@SuperVandemon]

thay do look stuning compaired to the older ping clubs .

[@davidtasker6663]

Hi Folks. I am going to test these but keen to see all your thoughts... could an 18 handicapper game these?

[@JarodEdmiston]

The exact question I was about to post 😂

[@JamesRobinsonGolf]

😂😂😂😂😂😂 the custom shop gets me every time Mark.

[@ryanjohnson282]

Lovely irons I been wanting to get me a new set of irons, I still rock the ping Eye 2 from the 90s lol

[@kandyman8603]

Good work by Ping and great review though i think the real winner here is Titleist for allowing you to be honest. Taylor-who???

[@Thedogchapman]

Kandy Man TaylorMade

[@mediocregolfer8922]

Titleist promotion working then

[@SuperR0551]

Thanks for the honest review (as always). I'm seriously considering these clubs so will be trying them out myself at my local course. Keep up the great content 👊🏻

[@SuperR0551]

Custom fit set ordered today 😁 looking forward to their arrival next week 👍🏻

[@dannyc91a]

I love the look of these and think I’d finally get rid of my mizuno mp32s

[@jnjfleming]

These are gorgeous and very much what I'm looking for. With the "retro" loft option of the i500 it seems you could build a combo set (I need a bit more help with the longer clubs).

[@mikem4521]

I would love to try these but will probably try my luck with the prior gen to save some $$

[@shanemckee1721]

I play ping anser 2010/2011. Just wondering how much better are the i210 vs old ping anser?? I love my irons have lots of success, just wondering has there been significant gains in the newer irons or is it just hype? I have a very hard time believing that every single year companies make something better than the yr previous. Would love you to indoor data comparison i210 vs older ping anser irons. Your thoughts between the two.? Thank you.

[@craigjones983]

looking forward to those i500's that were sneakily in the bag

[@FunkmeisterOfSedgley]

Stunning. What's not to like? Completely honest and objective review as always Mark. Looks like TM have made two people watch ;)

[@bigsisterSuzy]

I really like these i210 irons. Keep in mind the i200 is the most popular iron on the LPGA tour. What I want to know is do they go farther, higher or straighter than my G20 irons with about the same lofts?

[@ilovemybeard]

Nice honest review. I have the i200 and am very happy with them. Don't have the matching U wedge though. Might have to look out for one.

[@cameronboyd9850]

ilovemybeard you should get one, I’ve got the same set and the u wedge is my favorite club

[@ericturner9458]

If you contact ping and give then your serial number they will send you one

[@robertcourt8593]

I keep coming back to watch this review... It just makes me want to buy a set lol.

[@CraigalFun]

Me too.

[@robertcourt8593]

Lol 2 years later I've just bought an 8,9 and w for a song on ebay! 😃

[@colinthomson7946]

Currently gaming the i25 irons, is the upgrade worth the expense.

[@bdeheton6445]

Great job, nice review. Tried the i200s last year. Loved the looks, felt nice, but a bit too high spin for me. The i200s also seemed to spin a bit higher (than normal) for you in your review last year as compared to their lofts, but they were still very good numbers for you. The spin numbers for the i210s look to be just a little bit lower, although still very good. These might be worth a hit when they are available at the shops to see how they go with my swing.

[@benjaminwarchow3419]

Looks like someone has a TS driver.... Looking forward to that review.

[@deep2732]

love my custom dynamic gold shafted i210s

[@waynepadley1337]

Ordered these recently. Can’t wait they feel amazing 👌

[@mizunoboy100]

How do they feel now that you have them?

[@nickfurnessgolf2197]

Tried the i200 last year. Lovely clubs and do exactly what they say on the tin. Just couldn’t justify price at that time.

[@swinbag]

Fantastic review Mark! I really feel like Ping has come a long way in the 'looks department' - these are gorgeous to my eye! Would definitely be happy to game them bruh.

[@donnyone-eye8726]

Good video Mr. Crossfield, thank you for uploading it! These would be something I would look at if I was playing off single digits. Although I wouldn't mind 'trying' to play up to the quality of the clubs!

[@afrankiuk78]

Your swing looks great Mark!

[@gavin6535]

Nice looking club. Might trade in my G irons for them 👍🏻

[@TRIKushbeachside]

Hey Mark I have just recently started playing again after a 5+ year break, I used to play a decent amount when I was younger ( teenager ) at the time and was a bogey, par, bogey, par type of player. I have just started playing again in the last 6 weeks or so and am starting to get back to the moderate form I used to have. I’m a little older now and am planning on taking it much more serious than I used to. The clubs I currently have are a set of Bob Toski Catalyst irons that I got from my dad that were probably purchased around 2000? They’re in decent shape but I’ve never been a big of a fan of these clubs. I still have a long way to go but my striking consistency etc.. is definitely improving and I am looking for a set of good irons to get to work into and build on. I have no idea what type of clubs the Toskis I’m using would be categorized as but I’m thinking that maybe a set of I210s would be a good set to work into and build upon? I have solid swing speeds and decent power I just need to work on form and consistency and then I’ll be ready to work on shot shaping, strategy etc.. Just wondering if you had any thought on whether the jump between the iron sets was reasonable? Thank you and great vid as always 🤙🏽

[@wallstreetoneil]

I am not a Ping person, never have been, but if I was in the market for clubs, I would seriously try these.

[@marrlin]

Been playing, and enjoying the ping i series. Wondering when/if an upgrade might be in order.

[@majorsmythe1]

Do these have a squared looking toe somewhat?, I like that but find it hard to find irons like that now, they are to round for my liking these days. If these sit a bit square, I would be interested.

[@leejacques7559]

Great enthusiasm from you in this video. I get the feeling you really liked these bruh. Certainly a set I would love to get my hands on but unfortunately not currently in my budget :-/

[@jasonpollard7157]

Nice drop for the birdie WOW

[@weshughes7639]

Hi mark i play the p770 irons how would you compare these two irons has the the ping got more forgiveness

[@randymahony8157]

Is this a player's club or can a higher handicapper play them?

[@ericturner9458]

Randy Mahony a higher handicap could absolutely play these

[@Sometimes_I_Growl]

Randy Mahony Great question my man

[@oldgold5848]

Mark how would you compare them with the Titleist Ap3 ??

[@trevorhorn3300]

What kind of pasture you playing on here Mark? Love the look of the Ping i210

[@tonywestwell]

These look fantastic Mark, would love a go with these. Excellent review, honest and to the point, I don't think Iv'e ever seen a bad looking Ping iron, ever. Top quality as always. #CustomShop

[@joewolf2343]

Are they all getting away from major offsets ir is that still an option?

[@kbsdws6143]

mark I am about a 10 handicap playing I500 but I want to try blueprint or 210 what are your thoughts

[@heathkapor5181]

Great review puts my mind at ease just got fitted for them 👍👍

[@TheUofAfan]

I bought i500s but wishing I should have got these

[@dufferjuice]

Fine looking iron. If I didn't already play the i200, I'd be very interested in checking these out. (Who am I kidding? I'm still going to give them a go!) Great review!

[@ermangus]

dufferjuice I agree. I game the i200 and won’t be upgrading to this version for small improvements. I really like the looks for sure.

[@EnormousBison77]

Doesn't quite seem worth it to upgrade from my i200s to these. However, they'd be right at the top of my list if I didn't already have the i200s. Now would be a great time for people to get fitted for and get what's left of the i200s at a good discount from Ping. I can imagine most golfers wont notice a difference between the two.

[@davidtasker6663]

What do you play off mate? Are these gamable for a 18 handicapper?

[@ulrichbohmer9279]

Hi Mark. Thanks for another great video. If you were to choose between the I200's and I210's and performance for you is the same but you enjoy the feel of I210's more what would you choose? Keeping price difference in mind. Is the little bit of softer feel worth the extra money?
