Your Right Choice–Ping Rapture Iron Set

The wide-soled, perimeter weighted Ping Rapture Iron set relies on strategic use of titanium, steel and tungsten to create a high-performance, multi-material iron. Careful analysis and application of each material yields forgiveness and trajectory improvements while creating a face and cavity design that produces a solid, pleasing feel and sound.

I bought these new and had them fitted to me with the intention that these would be the last set that I ever own. They are great clubs for sure. I always had trouble setting them up though and that was something that I never got used to. Also, I developed a draw that I attribute to the off-set.

This Ping Rapture Iron set is, quite simply, the most forgiving and the longest irons. Have the seller print a copy of the list a copy of the factory card telling you the makeup of the set and the serial number. If he is the original owner, then he has this information available. If you can get your hands on an authentic set of Raptures, then you will own one fantastic set of irons that will make you the envy of your foursome on the weekend.

This Rapture iron set has the following features:

1. Maximum Perimeter Weighting – Utilizing different materials maximizes the perimeter weighting, which substantially increases the moment of inertia for maximum forgiveness on off-center shots, while generating a very high, straight trajectory.

2. Wide Sole Design – The wide sole has positioned the CG further back to promote a high trajectory and lower spin for high soft shots into the green that don't balloon in the wind. This sole design also provides easy transition through the turf for solid ball contact.

3. Deep Undercut Cavity Design – Cavity is parallel to the ground allowing more mass to be moved away from the club face, creating a wide sole and high moment of inertia for maximum forgiveness on off-center shots.

Over the last 2 seasons my iron game slowly eroded to the point where I couldn't hit a green and I attribute that to these Irons, their set-up and the lack of feedback encouraging poor swing mechanics. After selling them, I bought some blades and immediately got my old game back. Definitely for the game-improvement player, but I wouldn't recommend them for good golfers.

In a word, this is a very unusual set of Ping irons. I would highly recommend these clubs to mid-high handicappers.
