The PING G740 Irons are built to make the game easier by delivering maximum distance, forgiveness, and consistency. Designed as a super game-improvement iron, the G740 helps golfers launch the ball higher and generate faster ball speeds for longer, more predictable iron shots. The larger head shape features a wider sole, longer blade length, and thicker topline, all working together to lower the center of gravity and increase MOI. This design makes the G740 PING’s most forgiving iron, helping golfers maintain speed and direction even on off-center strikes. A hyper 17-4 stainless steel face flexes more at impact to produce faster ball speeds and higher launch, while the PurFlex cavity badge with three flex zones supports the face for consistent bending and improved sound and feel. The wider dual-camber sole improves turf interaction and helps the club move smoothly through the ground, giving golfers more consistent contact from a variety of lies. The stock set includes 5-PW + UW and comes standard with the PING AWT 3.0 steel shaft, designed to promote mid-to-high launch with a stable feel throughout the set. Key Features Hyper 17-4 Stainless Steel Face - A thin, flexible face increases ball speed and launch, helping golfers hit the ball farther while maintaining stopping power on approach shots. Extreme Forgiveness - The longer blade length, thicker topline, and perimeter weighting increase MOI, making the G740 one of PING’s most forgiving irons. Wider Dual-Camber Sole - The wide sole helps position the center of gravity lower and farther back, improving launch and making it easier for the club to glide through turf. PurFlex Cavity Badge - A three-zone PurFlex cavity badge supports the flexible face to enhance sound and feel while controlling face bending for consistent performance. Forgiving Turf Interaction - The wider sole design and shorter hosel allow more mass to be positioned low in the head, improving launch and forgiveness. Confidence-Inspiring Shape - The larger head design with a thicker topline and longer blade length inspires confidence at address while helping players strike the ball more consistently.
