Handsome with a dark finish, and designed to offer maximum distance as well as to be highly forgiving, PING’s new G710 irons were created to offer a tremendous blend of power and consistency, while still presented in an attractive package. And PING, probably one of the most traditional companies in the industry, is going high tech with G710 by offering Arccos Caddie Smart Grips, and a trial of the Arccos Caddie app as part of the package. Utilizing Arccos came straight from the top—PING President John Solheim is a big fan of the technology. “It helps me during a round with club selection, and I really enjoy analyzing all the data after the round to uncover areas to help me play better,” Solheim says.

Here’s what you need to know about G710.

Maraging steel face

Using an alloy found in the aerospace industry, PING says its maraging steel face offers the flexibility and strength to launch long, high shots. But distance isn’t the only key—PING says the faces are engineered to offer consistency as well.

Forgiveness

G710 is 5% more forgiving than its predecessor. That comes from utilizing high-density tungsten in the toe and heel. It is a tweak that should help those with slower swing speeds or who lack consistency in their ball striking.

Hydropearl Stealth Chrome Finish

Designed to repel water and improve turf interaction, the darker finish also is quite unique and stunning.

Arccos Caddie Smart Grip

Arccos, a sensor hidden in the Golf Pride grip, provides details on every shot during your round, and keeps vital statistics on how you play over the course of a round. There’s a 90-day free trial of the corresponding app included with your purchase.

Who is it for?

PING is promoting this hollow iron as being a great option for the older golfer who may be struggling with the loss of some swing speed, as well as the player who is seeking the right mix of distance and forgiveness.Those intrigued by the interaction of technology and golf are going to love the Arccos Caddie Smart Grip option.
