PING

PING was founded in 1959 by Karsten Solheim in his garage in Redwood City, California, where he invented the now-iconic perimeter-weighted blade putter that gave the brand its name. The Phoenix, Arizona-based company is family-owned to this day and is known for engineering-driven design, custom fitting, and exceptional build quality. PING irons (particularly the i-Series, G-Series, and Blueprint models) are praised for their forgiveness and consistency, while G-Series drivers and woods deliver reliable performance for a wide range of swing speeds. PING is a favorite among players who value precise custom fitting — the brand pioneered the color-coded lie-angle fitting system — and durability over flashy marketing.
