Ping Rapture V2 Irons Review

With the Ping Rapture V2 Irons, there's another series of clubs designed to smooth the wrinkles from the imperfections of a high handicapper's game.

Ping is among the most innovative companies in golf equipment design, and its engineers were again creative in the construction of the Ping Rapture V2 Irons. The big wrinkle here is a multi-metal construction that creates the optimal weight distribution. A dense tungsten sole moves the center of gravity towards the lower sole of the clubhead, helping secure an extraordinarily-high MOI and idea launch conditions.
