Launching: PING s259 wedge

AVAILABLE NOW FOR FITTING

The new s259 wedges build on the higher spin and control attributes of the Tour-winning s159 family. New grind refinements and loft additions give golfers of all abilities improved precision and versatility with a Tour-preferred look, feel and sound.

Wheel-cut grooves in the s259 wedges are precision-milled to varying dimensions, depending on loft. The 54-to-62-degree options feature more tightly spaced MicroMax grooves. The 46-to-52-degree wedges have a 20-degree sidewall, milled to maximize groove volume for greater control on full shots. A friction-adding face blast helps deliver the launch and spin control to play with precision from all distances.

- The E-grind was re-shaped in the s259 to give it a more familiar look at address while maintaining high performance from the sand and slightly-open-faced shots.

- The s259 T grind features a steeper trail edge, allowing the face to sit very low on open-face shots.

- In the s259 W grind, 50° and 52° lofts have been added to best fit golfers with steeper angles of attack in need of a lower-lofted wedge to optimize gapping

- New optimized loft offerings enhance player confidence and versatility

Each PING wedge loft is designed to excel in certain situations. Lower-lofted s259 wedges (46°-50°) combine a straighter leading edge with a lower and more centered CG. This creates better gapping and blending into PING iron sets.

Middle lofts in the s259 wedge family (50°-54°) employ a full-length bottom groove and higher CG to help with distance control and off-speed wedge shots.

The higher-lofted s259 wedges (56°-62°) leverage more visual offset and a smaller hosel to give golfers more confidence when manipulating the clubface around the greens.
