I am watching the Road to the PGA and they were introducing an engineer for Ping. The camera passes along a table with clubs on it and I caught that it was a i20. It actaully was a i20 U wedge, similar as cosmetic looks as the G20.

If you didn't DVR it, maybe a west coast user could catch it. If not, the Golf Channel is reshowing it later this week.

I'd be kinda surprised if a PING engineer would be sloppy enough to leave a developmental product out when there were camera crews in the building, but we can hope.  :)

I caught it and then had to rewind a bunch of times and even paused it on that frame. Clearly it was a i20, it seemed to be a tad more rounded in to toe compared to the i15.

I didn't tape it, so I can't post a picture.

I have the i15s and love the look.  I am in the camp of anti-G20 from a looks perspective.  That's a lot of black plastic on the badge.  I'll stay away if the 15s resemble the 20s.

From the still-shot it looks better than the G20.  Hard to tell with the lighting, but generally the smaller head size will make the flashy look less tacky.

Right now at Ping HQ's, someone is thinking "I can't believe those goobers picked that out of the interview."  Nice catch!

Doesn't look like it has the CPT?

Yea that's awesome. You know someone at PING HQ just lost their parking spot, and free membership too.

They have to know by now someone here IS going to find that needle in a haystack. Good job guys.

Haha, please they knew exactly what they were doing, they are generating hype. What better way than to have a few obscure images make the rumor rounds of the internet. Marketing at its best :)

That's a lot of offset for a gap wedge,  the sole looks the right size for the i line.

Good spot
