The Review of Ping Rapture V2 Irons

The Ping Rapture V2 Irons undoubtedly are a game enhancement club, mainly designed and created for the mid to higher handicap golfer. Perhaps they may not be the nicest looking golf clubs ever made, but the Rapture V2 Irons are meant to make the game of golf as easy as possible. Today golf clubs 2011 will give a detailed introduction of the Ping Rapture V2 Irons to you.

This Ping Rapture V2 Irons sport a rather small D1 swing weight; try not to allow that to trick you. Club head awareness through the entire swing remains a priority with Ping. I knew at all times where that puppy was, whether I was using the lightweight steel shafts or the ulra-lightweight graphite shafts. The feel at impact isn't dead at all. Like the majority of titanium faced irons there's a bit of an insta-pop off of the clubface.

Ping Rapture V2 Irons are very hot-faced golf irons, just in case you're currently playing a pair of irons older than 5/7 years, these will obtain you an easy club length through both the hotter face and stronger lofts. I discovered them to be the equal of my TaylorMade R7 XD's, but my TaylorMades have custom shafts vs. the off the rack variety here. These are definitely a long, and quite possibly the longest set of irons around. I give them an easy 5 stars in this department. My only word of warning is to those of you who have never hit a titanium wedge before. Recalibrating the longer distance took me a bit of getting used to, but as with any short game club, once you've got it pegged you're A-O-K.

The technology on these Ping Rapture V2 Irons isn't exactly earth shattering anymore. You possess a stainless steel body/cradle that sports extreme perimeter weighting. Along the bottom is a wide sole to prevent turf drag, and tungsten weighting to lower the center of gravity. Attached to the cradle is a hot titanium face. So far this can be a same line of hype we've had tossed at us from most of the multi-material makers. The hot titanium face is centered along the cradle and there is a "‘custom tuning port' to stabilize the titanium face." All this sounds far too familiar to anyone who’s been reading ads for irons over the past five-seven years. The variation we have found that Ping's execution and assemblage of said technology is impeccable.

These Ping Rapture V2 Irons are simply just great. They're most certainly not cheap at these price ranges; however they lack for nothing in operation. Sure there are clubs which can be more feasible, but that's definitely not what you buy "Super Game Improvement" clubs for in the first place. I really doubt that there are clubs which are longer. These are definitely really about as hot an iron as I've ever hit. The feel is as close to butter as you will get from a multi-material game improvement club. Don't count on it to feel as though a forged club--because it is not.
