Review from the magazine
TG rating 
The Ping S57 Iron provides golfers who prefer
a tour-inspired design the ideal blend of feel, forgiveness and distance control. The small, stainless steel head is engineered as a players iron with an increased moment-of-inertia. A dense tungsten toe weight, longer hosel and a small cavity combine to raise the MOI for the additional forgiveness.
Its dual stabilising bars in the cavity
and the optimised CG location produce the solid feel and distance control expected from a blade design. The machined face and grooves, player-preferred offsets and the lower, penetrating ball flights make it the perfect choice for golfers who put shot-making at the top of their list. The brushed silver chrome finish makes it an attractive choice for the best in the game.
2009 Review
As the stats suggest, this was the most forgiving iron in this category. It features a higher MOI than you might expect for what is a 'players club' and the stabilising bars help give the S57s a little more feel. Jon noted a higher launch and Tom couldn't miss with it.
