| Accuracy |   Less-Avg-More |

| More; these are the most responsive irons that Ping has ever produced. I was a big fan of the ISIs but the day I put the i3s in the bag I sold my ISIs! They allow you to cut (shape) the long iron ball flight which was very hard to do with the ISIs. | ||

| Distance | Short-Avg-Long |
|
Long;
very consistent, there are no hot spots
on the face that give that jumper knuckleball
ballflight. My yardages are the same
as they were with the ISIs. 3 iron -
215 yds, 6 iron - 181 yds, 9 iron - 139
yds.

| Trajectory | Low-Avg-High |
|
| Average; trajectory is more penetrating than with previous Ping models. | ||

More; this is a cast club that will let you know where on the face the ball was struck. It will forgive your errors pretty well but still gives you feedback. |

| Forgiveness | Less-Avg-More |
|
Average; great clubs, easiest to hit long irons ever from PING and their long irons have always been the easiest in golf! |

| Looks | ||
| Blade look at address with minimal offset but still looks like a Ping iron. Superb short irons and wedges that look like traditional wedges but with the crisp Ping finish. Weight is dead center of clubface, more shaft options than any other manufacturer. | ||
|
||
| Summary | ||
| I believe that these are the best irons on the market, period. The Ping i3 Blade is not just for the low handicapper but anyone who like the no offset look but still needs a little forgiveness. For the most options and custom fitting, check with the Ping Wrx department. It may cost more, but for the better player this can mean custom grinds for wedges as well as a variety of shafts and grips to choose from. | ||
