Ping S57 Irons Iron Set Blue 3-PW Steel Stiff S-57 Best Deals

The colour of the dot corresponds to the lie angle of the club. Ping strongly believes in custom-fitting, so when you get custom fit they will determine the best lie angle/colour for you. It doesn’t have to do with skill level, a 25 handicap and a +4 handicap could both use 2º upright, or they could both use 2º flat. What matters is getting the club to fit you and your swing.

Here’s a chart of what the colour codes represent: http://www.ping.com/pdfs/PING_Color_Code_Chart.pdf

These twelve colored dots signify twelve lie angles, each varying by .75 degree.

Maroon = 4.5° upright
Silver = 3.75° upright
White = 3° upright
Green = 2.5° upright
Yellow = 1.5° upright
Blue = .75° upright
Black = standard
Red = .75° flat
Purple = 1.5° flat
Orange = 2.25° flat
Brown = 3° flat
Gold = 3.75° flat

it’s the length i think. I have ping clubs but it’s been awhile since i bought em.

Snrglfr is very accurate with his figures, the dots signify the Lie Angle

The Eye 2′s came out in about 1982 The Eye 2 + was 1990. If memory serves me Ping had a dispute with the USGA on the Eye 2′s in about 1988 because of square grooves. Because Ping ultimately won that dispute I believe all Ping Irons have had Square grooves since the Eye 2′s first came out…..I could be wrong on that….but you are relying on an old mans memory lol

if you have a handicap of about 8 or lower you should have no problem. im a 6 and hit the mizuno equivalent of the S57s (MP 60s) and have no problem striking them

I don’t know if it is an exact score, but you are probably looking at a low single digit handicapper as the person they are best for. You definitely want to be someone who hits the ball on the sweet spot and has no trouble getting the ball in the air. I would look for a player who hits no more than 7 iron from 160 yards, 5 iron at least 185 as the prototype for this club.

Why kill yourself, this game is hard enough stick with a top line club that is forgiving.

You’re going to have to contact Ping themselves, and check the serial number with them. That’s the most accurate way to find out.
