Ping G400 Irons
G400 Irons
A Faster Speed of Flight.
Face flexing technology that launches the ball faster and higher so you’ll enjoy more distance with the stopping power and feel to hit approach shots closer than ever. Imagine hitting one less club to the green with the height of two less clubs – giving you tour-player type performance with the forgiveness you need to find the putting surface more often.
COR-Eye Technology
Faster ball speeds generate gains in distance and shot height for stopping power.
Top Rail Undercut Cavity
Combines with COR-Eye Technology to amplify and expand face flexing (18% more) to increase ball speed and launch the ball higher.
Hyper 17-4 Stainless Steel
Increases strength by 40% which allows for a thinner face.
Enriched Impact Response
Full cavity badge improves sound and feel.
Concealed CTP Weight
Larger Custom Tuning Port saves weight for expanded perimeter weighting and elastomer insert fine tunes swingweight.
Hydropearl Chrome Finish
Repels moisture for more control and helps minimize fliers from wet conditions and lies in the rough.

The Takeaway
The G400 irons incorporate Core-Eye technology. This innovative design produces faster ball speeds for dramatic speed gains and increased ball height for better stopping power on greens. The Top-Rail Cavity combines with the Core-Eye technology to increase face flexing, ball speeds and launch. The co-molded, 3-piece cavity badge provides an enriched impact response that creates a powerful sound and feel. The new Hyperchrome finish reduces friction improving launch and spin in wet conditions.
Who's It For?
The new G400 is still Ping’s premier Game Improvement iron set. Mid to higher handicap players will love the higher, longer shots without losing control.
Final Take
I loved the G Series Irons and quickly recommended them to a few friends to buy and they agreed with me. What I like more about the new G400 irons is the use of the rubber 3-piece cavity badge. It has a much better look and produces a better feel and sound. The G400 is a very high launching, long 7-iron. It produced shots that were about a full club longer than other 7-irons and I had excellent results even on slight mishits. This is a cleaner, meaner version of the G series irons with some good updates. Both are flat out excellent Game Improvement irons, but I give the edge to the new G400 irons.
