Ping i240 아이언
The i240 is Ping's players cavity iron for golfers who want a compact head without giving up all the help. It replaced the i230 for 2025, and Ping made a real change under the hood: a forged face, paired with a multi-material build and a cavity back that keeps the sweet spot bigger than the thin topline suggests. Golf Digest gave it Hot List Gold and called it the best all-around players cavity, which is the right lane for this club.
The lofts tell you a lot about the intent. The 7-iron sits at 32 degrees and the pitching wedge at 45, which is traditional by modern standards. Ping didn't chase distance by strengthening lofts and calling a stronger 8-iron a 7. You get honest gapping and predictable flight, which matters more than a couple extra yards when you're trying to hit a green from 165.
This is an iron for the better player who still wants a margin for error. It won't flatter a slice or launch the ball into the stratosphere on its own, but mishits stay closer to the target than they would with a blade. Solid strikes feel dense and controlled, and the shaping stays clean behind the ball at address.

About the Ping i240
The i240 combines a forged face with a cavity back body, so it reads as a multi-material iron rather than a single cast head. The cavity and internal weighting push mass toward the perimeter to hold ball speed on strikes off the toe and heel, while the compact profile and thinner topline keep it looking like a player's club at address. Ping added an insert behind the face to quiet the harsh, clicky feel that thin-faced irons can produce, so impact comes across as firm and muted instead of hot. The traditional loft progression, 22 degrees at the 4-iron up through 45 at the pitching wedge, gives you consistent 3.5 to 4 degree gaps through the set. That translates to steady distance windows between clubs, which is the whole point of an iron set built for scoring rather than launch monitor numbers.
로프트 분석
The Ping i240's 7-iron is lofted at 32° - near-traditional - close to the classic 32-34° benchmark. For a golfer with an 85-95 mph swing speed, this projects to a 7-iron carry of approximately 143-153 yards. The 5-iron (25°) to 7-iron gap of 7° is well-gapped, which may create overlapping distance windows with similarly lofted fairway woods or hybrids. The pitching wedge at 45° provides a conventional loft window that pairs cleanly with a 50-52° gap wedge.
Who Should Play the Ping i240?
- ✓Mid to low handicappers who want a workable, compact iron that still helps on off-center hits
- ✓Players moving down from a game-improvement set who want cleaner shaping without jumping straight to a blade
- ✓Golfers who value consistent yardage gaps and control over chasing extra distance from stronger lofts
- ✓Ball strikers who like a firm, muted feel at impact and a thinner topline behind the ball
자주 묻는 질문
Is the Ping i240 a forgiving iron?
For a players cavity, yes. The cavity back and perimeter weighting keep mishits closer to your target than a blade would, but it's more compact and less forgiving than a game-improvement iron like the Ping G430. Think of it as forgiving for a better player, not a max-help design.
How is the i240 different from the i230 it replaced?
The biggest change is the face. The i240 uses a forged face rather than the cast construction of the i230, paired with an insert to tune feel. The shape and player-focused intent carry over, so it's an update to a proven formula rather than a total redesign.
Are the i240 lofts strong or traditional?
Traditional. The 7-iron is 32 degrees and the pitching wedge is 45, with gaps of about 3.5 to 4 degrees through the set. Ping didn't strengthen the lofts to inflate distance, so your gapping stays honest and each club covers a predictable window.
Who should play the i240 instead of a blade?
If you flush most of your irons but still want a safety net on the strikes you don't catch clean, the i240 fits. A true blade like the Ping Blueprint punishes misses more and rewards a very consistent strike. The i240 gives you similar shaping with a bit more room for error.
What does the i240 feel and sound like at impact?
Firm and muted. The insert behind the forged face cuts down the clicky, harsh sound thin faces can make, so solid strikes feel dense and controlled. You still get enough feedback to know where you hit it on the face.
