Ping i540 Irons

Ping's 2026 players distance iron carries the same 29 degree 7-iron as the i530 before it, with a maraging steel face in a multi-material hollow head. Sets run 4-PW with a matched gap wedge, eight clubs, in both hands. Shaft choice is broad even by Ping standards: Alta CB Blue, AWT 3.0, Alta Quick, Elevate MPH 95, UST Recoil Dart, Dynamic Gold, Dynamic Gold 120, Dynamic Gold Mid 100, KBS Tour and Nippon Modus 3 Tour in 105 and 115. Senior through X-stiff.

Four degrees separate this from the i240, and that's the decision in Ping's players range. The i540 buys distance and gives up a little precision into greens, which suits golfers whose long irons have gone soft. Nobody should pick between them from a spec sheet. Hit both and watch the 7-iron numbers.
