Ping have released the i530 to replace the popular i525. Its their idea of the next generation of modern Players Distance irons focusing on keeping the aesthetics of a Players Iron but adding in as much help with Launch, Distance and Forgiveness as possible in an iron of its size.
Is it better though than the i525 of which it replaces???

Mistake in the Loft Table at the start! The images are the wrong way round. The top image is the i530 and the lower i525. I530 has 29 degrees loft standard and i525 has 30.5 degrees standard 👍🏻

@darrellhayes3646 5 месяцев назад

I’ve been waiting on this comparison. I was hoping you were going to say these i530’s are revolutionary. Now I’m gonna have to make up another reason to buy them.

@drumcatnau 2 месяца назад

They sound better, which will improve your consistency. It's a mental game. :)

@jamesfrancis7284 5 месяцев назад

Had an opportunity to pickup a set of 525s for 1/2 price of the 530's after watching this I'm glad theyre in my bag. THANK YOU

@ciaranoconluain6328 5 месяцев назад

Really glad to see this vid. I love my i525 and don't see a need to upgrade to these but might with the next update in 2 years or so. Ping really don't market themselves well enough for the forgiveness they deliver

@a__special_k4482 5 месяцев назад

Second time I've watched this fantastic review . I do love the looks of the i530. The way you have explained the loft difference brings it back to Kiss. So, sticking with the i525 😊

@ChihuAudioMan 5 месяцев назад

Love the new chart showing drop off from max, but would like to see that have yardage values as well! A maximum to minimum (poor contact location) would really be nice to see in yards.

@angelounelli2515 5 месяцев назад

Nice job Jay...(it's like saying nice shot to a +5 handicap...of course it was a nice shot) Originally I thought I remembered you saying the i530 sound/feel was slightly quieter/softer. This time around I didn't get that impression. I do need the distance help now nearing 70...swing speed with a 7 still is respectable at low 80s...versus low 90s 3 years ago....ouch. That said, I don't like the sound and feel of most of the hollow irons I have tried and I was hoping the i530 may change that. I am set up to hit them in a couple of weeks along with Wilson Dynapower and Cobra Tec. I figure the Cobra Tec is also going to be louder/harder. Thoughts on what you found to be softer/quieter in hollow? I may throw in Pro243 into the mix but I'm not sure I will get that extra yardage (currently my TR20's are getting about 155 carry/160 total). On a slightly different note, have you seen the new Bettinardi CB irons recently announced. They look fantastic. I'm so tempted to try them but that would be my heart/eyes/ego choosing that direction where I am sure I won't see the gains I need to neutralize my aging process, at least for awhile. Thanks again Jay for the great review...now for the Wilson Dynapower and Cobra Tec compares😈 to Ping i530!

@lawbinson 5 месяцев назад

Glad to see Ping are actually releasing product that is better than the previous version!

@redphenix1033 5 месяцев назад

Lovely review Jay. Good innovation in the drop off table. A suite of videos that discuss comparisons of golf ball spin would be great.

@AskGolfNut 5 месяцев назад

Glad you enjoyed the table, it's more work added to editing but personally I think it adds a lot. With regards to the ball videos idea, I've done ball videos in the past and they have had fairly low view counts so it seems not enough golfers want the content. With the amount of time they take to make (doen properly) honestly I'm not sure I could justify the time doing them 😕👍🏻👍🏻

@redphenix1033 5 месяцев назад

@@AskGolfNut keep your focus on videos that enjoy strong viewership. What balls would you suggest to improve spin numbers for clubs like thr i525/530 - within swing speed categories maybe? 95-100 mph for instance.

@paulcarrigan691 5 месяцев назад

Ping have an amazing line up this year. G430 LST and i530 irons must be outselling everything.

@AskGolfNut 5 месяцев назад

Not so sure about the LST but definitely the 10K is selling extremely well... If honest I'd say due to differences of flight dynamics over the 10K competition, it's the best one of the lot 👍🏻

@brianruane6741 5 месяцев назад

Great review as always. I've been waiting for this one to see if the i530 is worth the extra cost, as the gains seemed so small I am not sure they are, the retro lofts on the i530's also seem a little close together, meaning you need an extra wedge, not ideal.

@justinstephenson9360 5 месяцев назад

This is classic Ping, every generation is a little better than the last but without artificial gimmicks. The i500 was outclassed by its competition - not a bad iron, far from it, but not as good as the competition The i525 was as good as the competition, maybe even better than most and sold loads because it was a good iron The i530 is just a little better than the i525, of course some of the competition is a bit better as well but that just means that the i530 like the i525 is very competitive. The next thing that needs to be tested is the gapping. From memory, some people found there were gapping issues with the i525, I suspect Ping will have eliminated those in the i530 but it would be nice for confirmation.

@richardrelan6715 3 месяца назад

I’ve had the i530 in the retro spec 6-P for about 6 weeks. Gaps really well. 10-12 yds btwn them with consistent 3.5 degrees from 42(P) - 27.5 (6). Also gaps well from 6 to cobra 5(24)/4 (21) hybrid

@ChihuAudioMan 5 месяцев назад

Could you add a shot of the sole/leading edge that actually shows the camber of the leading edge. A top view down of the sole is nice, but doesn't show the leading edge. Some manufacturer's don't even show this. Thanks

@chrismccarthy1535 5 месяцев назад

The 500 rpm difference is the stats section seems pretty big. I know you can change ball but any thought as to why this difference? Always best comparisons on RU-vid. Cheers!!

@clw22580 5 месяцев назад

Surprised they “loft jacked” the 530 to game improvement levels even more so than their previous GI like g425 irons

@jasonmiller4080 5 месяцев назад

Thanks Jay. Appreciate your work on all these videos. Just curious about the sound and feel between these 2. Incremental? (Sorry if I missed this part on the video) Just trying to decide if the upgrade would be worth it.

@hoganfan2006 5 часов назад

Why do commenters always want the lofts matched up but disregard the lengths matching up?

@AskGolfNut 24 минуты назад

I always try to match the lofts in delivery where I can. I generally don't find an issue with lengths being too different and as long as I swing them the same speed and delivery the same as the other it's all very comparable 👍🏻

@hgibson2448 5 месяцев назад

Nice comparison. The results are so close together, I think they sre negligible. My swing is going to vary the results more than thede clybs will.

@Skye_the_toller 5 месяцев назад

Just ordered the 5-6-7 to add to my i-230… the new 7 shout replace my current 6… two 7 iron in my bag!🤷🏼

@AskGolfNut 5 месяцев назад

Finally, someone blending them the proper way without having to bend the living daylights out of both sets messing around every angle possible. Great choice to go two 7 irons, I'm assuming you got the i530 7 upwards a half inch longer than your i230s? 👍🏻

@Pud56 5 месяцев назад

Not sure why they don’t just put the lofts on the clubs, let us work out how far we hit each club and hey presto

@samtebbutt8903 5 месяцев назад

I had a fitting and purchased the i530s - getting them on launch day hopefully!

@AskGolfNut 5 месяцев назад

Not too long to wait now 😊 👍🏻

@kennethbnorris 5 месяцев назад

I think the delofting of the 530 has a lot to do with blending this set with the G430 as well as keeping up with the competition in the distance department. The Qi10 7-iron is lofted even stronger at 28 degrees as is the AI Smoke. The Smoke has even lengthened the shaft of their 7-iron by a quarter inch. I bought G430s last year as I was getting back into golfing. Now that my iron play has gotten much better, I’m thinking of going into this series, starting at the lower end of the bag. Thanks for the video!

@pbode1 5 месяцев назад

Great video again Jay. When I studied the still at @6:24 I noticed one micromax groove difference to y i525 7 iron at heelside. Did you measure the difference? I have a distinct impression that the blade height at the heel has been reduced to make the i530 appear sleeker.

@AskGolfNut 5 месяцев назад

Haven't measured the specific height as yet. Although the i530 head is definitely shallower in height. This alone may well cause the vertical gearing effect shown within testing 👍🏻

@petegalindez9961 3 месяца назад

Great review as always…but, not sure why you would pick a green that’s elevated that will change your numbers…just pick a flat hole to get better baseline numbers…I don’t get it….

@AskGolfNut 3 месяца назад

Hi Pete, on the second half of the video, it's done on plain level foresight range, same settings as all other reviews for consistency. When it comes to the simulator side of things it's meant to be a bit more real life where you can come up against all types of topography. Ages ago I did start doing the first half of the review on the Foresight Range and got loads of comments saying that it's silly as no one plays on driving ranges, they play golf on courses with undulating targets. So am trying to keep it real world as possible 👍🏻 all the data in the 2nd half is done on pure flat though so that is all transferable 👍🏻👍🏻

@sjoepsjoep7293 4 месяца назад

Hmm i can pick up the i525 for a good deal, or go for the i530 full price. Temped to go i525.

@AskGolfNut 4 месяца назад

Honestly it would come down to the ability to be custom fitted properly for the i525. If you can get the exact specs you require then there wouldn't be enough performance gains going full i530 for the price difference (in my opinion), but most centres now are fitting i530 and have removed the i525 from the AFS Fitting Carts 👍🏻

@333brooky 5 месяцев назад

@Robotrix666 5 месяцев назад

Awesome comparison, thank you. What would you say is the most consistent factor in thinning a shot?

@AskGolfNut 5 месяцев назад

So you mean from a swing fault perspective? 👍🏻

@Robotrix666 5 месяцев назад

@@AskGolfNut Yes sir. Standing too straight, gripping up on the club too much, etc. I just can't seem to fix it consistently...🤷‍♂ Thanks again for the wonderful analytics, your videos are incredibly easy to digest.

@midhc5072 5 месяцев назад

Have you done a comparison of the old jpx921 forged and the i525? I’d be interested how an older iron compares.

@lkae4 5 месяцев назад

I530 sounds more solid also. Seems like it will age very well.

@CatNash007 4 месяца назад

i530 standard lofts are similar to the i525 power specs.

@jamesgerboc 3 месяца назад

Why don't videos like this one hit some fades and draws to show how easy or difficult it is to control shots with that specific iron? Also, when discussing lofts, please take more time or slow down. Not everyone wants low-distance lofts. Still not sure if the 525 or 530 is stronger.

@benwalcher8749 3 месяца назад

Price difference?

@AskGolfNut 3 месяца назад

That very much depends on the region, the retailer, whether it's custom fitted or shop stock and other factors mean that anything other than saying the i530s will be more expensive would be a shot in the dark 👍🏻
