A lot of damage on those clubs. Only ones that looked OK were the 56's and the forged irons.

You guys did read the post "demo day", they are beat up because they are popular and everyone has been beating on them. You actually think Ping would bring beat up dirty clubs, common.
NO WAY those clubs got like that in 1/2 Day.
Those are clubs of a local rep who puts on demo days.
HELL the TOUR S Vintage HAS RUST ON IT!!
The tops of the woods and hybrids are all scratched up from banging around
in the DEMO bags.
Even the putters have got dings on them from being banged around.

The Anser forged irons look pretty, and the i15 would too if it wasnt beat up so bad, as for the mallet putters, what on earth did they think they were doing?

Seriously what difference does it make how the clubs look? They are demo clubs at a demo day for the purpose of demoing. Do you think it stopped anyone from hitting them?
Has everyone run out of things to complain about that they complain about the look of demo clubs?

When will new Ping drivers be released? End of summer?
I am interested to see if they will improve the i15 by making it a little less fade biased and a more forgiving.
Or just make the G15 look better and lower launching. Either one would be a great stick. Also I wonder if they will come out with some sort of adjustable driver.

I was grabbing what was closest, not what was cleanest.
Some very good things going on at Ping.
Treat others the way you want to be treated. Mutual respect is a key component to preservation of the site's goals.

Ping must not be doing very well if they cant scrounge up a few new woods and irons for the trip to the biggest merch show of the year. Sad stuff. And can someone fill me in on the dent in the hosel on all Ping irons?? Wish there were some more putters to see here.
Dent in the hosel is to make the club easier to bend

Wow you guys/gals are too funny! Lol. PING is smart if they did bring some beat up clubs there. They didn't have to lose money on bringing brand new clubs and I'm pretty sure people were still flocking to hit their stuff. Heck maybe it was most of the same stuff they brought last year! But seriously who cares. Your trying out the clubs to see if you like em and wanna buy them. Your not buying a scratched beat up club.

Lose the PING badge, add a gunmetal finish, and those Anser Forged irons would be SICK!!!

What happened to the re-released of Eye2 wedges with XG imprinted? I thought Ping was going to launch them this time around. Or was it done last fall?
Tha Japanese Fair had them on the show recently. http://www.tourspecg...apan-golf-fair/

+1, and ping makes some of the greatest clubs on earth as well as a fitting system that is second to ABSOLUTELY none.
