PING knows just because some players have more skill than average doesn’t mean they aren’t looking for more distance and the premium i530s are built to create more ball speed which translates into added yardage. All the design buttons are pushed in the i530: high flex face, low center of gravity, strong lofts and a polymer layer inside face for more solid feel at impact.

At address the new i530 look like a blade with minimal offset and a thin top line plus the sole is narrow for lesser turf interaction, all features batter players want in their irons.

“The continued popularity of distance irons has been an interesting and fun challenge for our engineers, especially in the players category where there is such an emphasis on the look of the iron,” said John K. Solheim, PING CEO & President. “In the case of the i530 iron, we’ve developed a stunning design that delivers significant distance gains through its innovative face technology along with the added benefit of control. We refer to it as a ‘playable distance’ iron. It appeals to the golfer whose primary goal is more distance who also relies on the precision of a players-style iron. That means longer iron shots with the consistency and predictability to stop the ball closer to the hole.”
