Ping S159 Steel Wedge
Ping S159 Steel Wedge
With the addition of two grinds and new loft offerings, the s159 wedges represent our most versatile wedge line to date, significantly improving on the performance of its predecessors and expanding the fitting options. Extensive testing with PING Tour players has helped create wedges that will appeal to golfers of all abilities.
The 8620 carbon steel head is shaped to look good with a more squared leading edge, which is especially beneficial on full shots. An elastomer insert behind the face contributes to a soft, responsive feel.
At address, the compact head features an improved hosel transition with constant offset that blends seamlessly with the new Blueprint S and T irons.
Wheel-cut grooves are precision milled to varying sizes, depending on loft. The 54- to 62-degree options feature more closely spaced MicroMax grooves. The 46- to 52-degree wedges have a 20-degree sidewall, milled to maximize groove volume for more control on full shots.
Combined with the friction-adding face, the S159 wedges offer launch and spin control for a short game that will lower your score.

Grind "H" or Half-Moon : A shot-saving option for players with more vertical attack angles who like to work the grip and play with versatility. Works best in soft ground conditions. Available in 54°, 56°, 58°, 60°
Grind "B" : For a shallow attack angle and neutral face positioning. The low bounce design keeps the leading edge of the wedge low when squared face positioning, providing forgiveness across the width of the sole to deliver performance to reduce the score in harder ground conditions. Available in 58°, 60°
Grind “T” : Our most versatile option, allows players to manipulate the face to hit precise shots around the greens. Ideal for medium to firm turf conditions. We added a 62 degree at the request of our tour pros for added versatility. Available in 58°, 60°, 62° (new)

Grind "S" : Suitable for a wide variety of conditions and techniques. Designed with ample bounce in the midsection to play full shots, it offers versatility on the green thanks to the milling in the rear.
