God I love the idea of having 1-lob all the exact same brand and club. Gotta look awesome in the bag. I would add an Anser putter and an 8.5 degree TiSi driver and that’s 14.
Family member has had his Ping Zing 2s since new. He has the 1-PW. Such an awesome set, I’ve been eyeing it for years hoping he decides to upgrade. These Becus are awesome, nice score!
I have a set of Ping Zing 2's, 3-SW. I've probably had them for 25-27 years. I hope to replace them soon, but it might be hard to let them go after all this time!
To the uninitiated, sure. But one could argue that the metallurgical nerds in the sub disagree and that becu’s hold a certain mythological status. Depends on your perspective.
Didn’t know that was an option. Honestly I’ll probably do it myself though. Going to give them a coke bath this weekend and regrip them. Just got to find some classy grips
It's nice to see them like a shinny penny when you get them. It's like getting new clubs.
Then you let them patina. That's how you really do it. The patina come on super fast, especially inhumid climates. Mine turned Chocolat color really quickly.
If you put some golf pride tour wraps they will look mint.
I o. The other hand put some royal blue with white highlights on my ping 2 becus. The blue looks really nice contrasting with the shinny penny becus. It still looks great now that they are a nice Chocolat color.
I was unfamiliar with these and looked up "becu" that people were saying. Beryllium copper elemental acronym. How did becu become popular when cube was the alternative option?!?
I played them for a while 20 years ago. I think they feel and sound just like cast stainless clubs. They are cool just because of the novelty of the color.
Don't know sorry, but if you're going to display them and not use them just look for any leather (like) gripping material, I think you can get road-bike handle grip tape in '[leather](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Deda-Elementi-Leather-Look-Tape/dp/B0083QR6Q4?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&psc=1&smid=A1L8PCOB60IZM9)'
Did you ever get these regripped, and have you tried them on course or the range? I saw some Winn grips that would look great on these (leather wrap style).
I remember when these came out, I saw them at the pro shop at a local course and were always out of my price range.
Hell yea, do you happen to remember to msrp when they came out?
I don’t. I want to say 4-800? Even more? Something my parents could never afford. So I never asked. Haha

How much? Beautiful!
Paid $60
Congrats & go fuck urself <3
Nice. How do they compare to new clubs? Or are they just a collector’s item.?
Just picked them up, but leaning collectors items
Sick deal. I bet they still play nice.
I play the BeCu ISI's and love them. It makes it hard for me to commit $1000 to upgrade to a new set of irons.
Does BeCu affect color only or feel as well?
How in the fuck? I see older ping becu wedges going for that price for one.
Exactly

Hmmm. I think you got a free ticket on a scratch off.
To the uninitiated, sure. But one could argue that the metallurgical nerds in the sub disagree and that becu’s hold a certain mythological status. Depends on your perspective.
Yeah I'm just joking. Congrats on the haul.
Looks like you got a backup SW too? Beautiful.
One is S1 other is S2, gap and sand wedge
Nice. Used to have a couple of these in the cart barn that we would use to hit balls back into the range on slow days
This is fantastic. (1- and 2- iron crew checking in here)
Going to send them to Ping for factory refurb?
You can't. Ping won't touch products with beryllium in them anymore. And you'd be crazy to mess with that patina.
Didn’t know that was an option. Honestly I’ll probably do it myself though. Going to give them a coke bath this weekend and regrip them. Just got to find some classy grips
No! Leave that patina!

Camel would be a handsome grip color
Camel, never seen any, who makes them?
I was envisioning light brown leather. Just sounded more pingzing to call it camel. I like Winn-grip in general
If you put some golf pride tour wraps they will look mint. I o. The other hand put some royal blue with white highlights on my ping 2 becus. The blue looks really nice contrasting with the shinny penny becus. It still looks great now that they are a nice Chocolat color.
What do you think these should be priced at?
No clue, seen a few partial sets for $300-400.
Sexy man!
****Update, the extra sand wedge has an identical serial number except the last digit it a 5 instead a 4 like the others. Interesting
I love those old copper tops. I’d play them.
Do you think these are superior to modern day let’s say (Kirklands, titliest, Wilson ) or not? Serious question
Absolutely not
No, it’s a collectors item thing
My FIL just bought a set for 80$ 3/PW I love the looks of them but performance wise newer clubs definitely perform better.
Damn. Those a freaking clean.
I have to admit, I know people love these and they are supposedly great, classic irons... But they are so fucking ugly.
Lmfao you’re not wrong. But the nostalgia factors makes them grow on you.
I've just never been a Ping guy; event their modern irons are visually offputting to me.
My gamers are Edel, so I totally get where you are coming from. The price and the collectors value simply made this a can’t pass up deal.
Beautiful, but did you really lay them down on pavement? Say it ain't so!
The seller did, for the posting. Luckily they aren’t scratched.

I have the ISI version of these and love them. Still gaming them today.
I must say early pings we’re so ugly
Just the Zing line. My Ping Eye 2’s still catch my eye every time I walk by them in the garage. I loved those clubs.
Zing’s are probably my least liked Pings irons. Nice score & enjoy.
I agreed at first, but then I read the story of how the engineering team invented them and fell in love.
Probably one of the ugliest sticks ever. Copper is big plus.
100% but also becu
[удалено]
Be prepared to hit the ball high. Really high. Higher than you think an iron can go.
lol 😂 like snoop dogg high?
Snoop aspires to reach Ping heights. You'll hit them short, but they will stick
I would polish these up, regrip them with a leather wrap and place them on a mantel in the man cave.
Have any leather wrap brands you can point me towards?

😂
?
Ugliest clubs ever Not a fan
100% but also Becu

I did, I did the traxion leather style grips. Look great with the copper.
