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, generate faster ball speeds, and produce longer, more consistent iron shots.

The larger head shape features a wider sole, longer blade length, and thicker topline, which work together to lower the center of gravity and increase MOI for exceptional forgiveness. Even on off-center strikes, the G740 helps maintain speed and direction to keep shots flying toward the target.

A hyper 17-4 stainless steel face flexes more at impact to generate faster ball speeds and higher launch. Behind the face, the PurFlex cavity badge with three flex zones supports consistent face bending while improving sound and feel.

The ALTA CB Blue graphite shaft complements the iron design by reducing overall club weight and promoting higher launch. The counter-balanced design helps golfers generate more clubhead speed while maintaining stability and control throughout the swing.

The stock set includes 5-PW + UW, giving golfers a versatile setup that delivers forgiveness, launch, and consistent distance across the bag.


Key Features

  • Hyper 17-4 Stainless Steel Face - The flexible face design increases ball speed and launch, helping golfers hit the ball farther while maintaining the stopping power needed to hold greens.
  • Extreme Forgiveness - The longer blade length, thicker topline, and perimeter weighting create a high MOI design that helps maintain ball speed and accuracy across the face.
  • Wider Dual-Camber Sole - The wide sole positions the center of gravity low and back while helping the club move smoothly through the turf for more consistent contact.
  • PurFlex Cavity Badge - The multi-zone PurFlex cavity badge supports the flexible face while improving sound and feel for a more satisfying impact experience.
  • Confidence-Inspiring Shape - A larger head profile and thicker topline give golfers confidence at address while promoting more consistent strikes.
  • Lightweight Graphite Performance - The ALTA CB Blue graphite shaft reduces overall club weight and promotes higher launch, helping golfers generate more speed and easier distance.

Austad’s Fitter Tip 💡

Graphite iron shafts can make a huge difference for golfers looking for more speed, higher launch, and less vibration at impact.

During fittings at Austad’s Golf, we often recommend graphite shafts like the ALTA CB Blue for players who want to reduce overall club weight while maintaining stability. The counter-balanced design helps golfers generate more clubhead speed without feeling overly light or difficult to control.

If you’re looking for maximum forgiveness with easier launch and a smoother feel, the graphite version of the G740 is an excellent option.

Ping G740 Irons - Graphite FAQs

Real Questions From Golfers - Expert Answers From Austad's Fitters

The ALTA CB Blue graphite shaft is designed to reduce overall club weight while promoting higher launch and increased clubhead speed. Many golfers find graphite shafts easier to swing, which can lead to more distance and a smoother feel compared to heavier steel shafts.

Yes. The PING G740 irons are designed as a super game-improvement iron, making them ideal for mid to high handicap golfers who want maximum forgiveness, easier launch, and more consistent distance on their iron shots.

Graphite shafts can help reduce vibration at impact, which many golfers find more comfortable—especially on off-center hits. The ALTA CB Blue shaft also helps deliver a smoother feel while maintaining stability during the swing.

The PING G740 irons sit at the very forgiving end of PING’s iron lineup and are designed as a super game-improvement iron. They feature a larger head, wider sole, and higher MOI to help golfers launch the ball higher and maintain ball speed on off-center strikes.

Compared to other PING irons:

  • G740 – Best for golfers who want maximum forgiveness, higher launch, and easier distance.
  • G430 / G440 – Game-improvement irons that still offer forgiveness but in a slightly more compact profile for mid-handicap players.
  • i540 / i530 – Players-distance irons designed for golfers who want more speed and distance in a smaller, players-style head.
  • Blueprint / i-series models – Built for lower handicaps seeking precision, workability, and control.

In short, if your priority is maximum forgiveness and easier launch, the G740 is the most forgiving option in the PING lineup. Golfers who want a more compact shape or more shot-shaping ability may gravitate toward the i-series irons instead.

Yes—PING irons are designed to be custom fit and custom built, and the G740 irons perform best when matched to your swing. During a fitting at Austad’s Golf, our experts evaluate factors like shaft type (steel vs graphite), shaft flex, lie angle using PING’s color code system, club length, and grip size to ensure your irons deliver the ideal launch, distance, and accuracy. A proper fitting can help golfers hit the ball more consistently while improving distance gapping throughout the set.
