PING iDi Driving Irons: 3 Takeaways That Set Them Apart

The new PING iDi Driving Irons are built for players who want a compact, tour-inspired profile with the forgiveness and speed of a modern utility club. Whether you’re attacking tight tee shots or replacing a long iron, the iDi is engineered for confidence and consistency.

Here are the three key takeaways you need to know:

1. Three Lofts for Versatile Launch

Available in 18°, 21°, and 24°, the iDi Driving Iron lineup gives you options to fine-tune your long-game trajectory. Each loft is optimized to deliver high launch and consistent spin, making it easier to hold greens or flight the ball through the wind.

At the heart of the performance is a forged maraging steel face, designed to increase ball speed and distance across the face.

2. Metalwood-Like Power, Premium Feel

PING blended the best of both worlds by pairing a cast 17-4 stainless steel body with a thinner, high-strength face—a combination that increases ball speed without sacrificing feel.

Inside, an I-Beam reinforced cavity minimizes vibration and boosts stability, while inR-AIR technology enhances sound and feedback at impact.

3. Shaped for Shotmakers, Forgiving for All

Despite its compact shape and minimal offset, the iDi is more forgiving than it looks. A deeper sole width boosts MOI by 15% on high and low strikes, while shaping refinements like a shorter blade length, rounded lead edge, and increased sole camber improve turf interaction and playability.

Final Thoughts

If you're looking for a driving iron that blends control, distance, and forgiveness in a compact profile, the PING iDi is a strong contender. It’s powerful enough to replace your longest iron or hybrid, with just enough forgiveness to handle off-center hits. Want to learn more?
