Review from the magazine

TG rating

The Ping G5 irons won TG’s game-improvement irons test last year, and nothing has changed: they are as good as ever, competing against more expensive models on an equal footing.

From long to short irons, the whole set is really well proportioned and is just as suited to a decent golfer looking for an ultimate forgiving set as it is to the beginner or 20+ handicapper.

Combine this excellent performance with a top-class fitting service, the company’s pedigree for making forgiving golf gear and Ping equipment’s enviable ability to hold its value, and we reckon this set is a clear winner.

And let’s not forget that the clubs are sold individually, so there’s no need to buy any clubs that will just sit in your garage waiting for an outing.
