The PING i230 is a Tour-proven, players-distance iron built for golfers who want consistent, predictable distance control without giving up feel. An activated elastomer insert creates discretionary weight that lowers the center of gravity for a higher launch and more distance, while a multi-material badge sharpens feel and sound at impact. A more rounded leading edge glides cleanly through the turf for solid contact from a wide range of lies. This steel-shafted version comes with the stock True Temper Dynamic Gold 105 shaft and is available in right- and left-hand models across multiple flex and set configurations.
The i230 clubhead pairs a steel body with an activated elastomer insert bonded behind the face. This multi-material badge shifts discretionary weight low and toward the perimeter, lowering the center of gravity for a higher, more penetrating ball flight and added distance. Beyond the launch benefit, the elastomer damps unwanted vibration at impact, producing the soft, muted sound and solid feel that better players expect from a compact players-distance iron. The result is a head that looks like a traditional cavity-back while hiding the forgiveness of a more technical construction inside.
Viewed from behind, the i230 shows a clean, minimally detailed cavity that keeps the head compact at address without shrinking the effective hitting area. Perimeter weighting distributed around the cavity increases forgiveness on off-center strikes, helping ball speed and trajectory stay consistent even when contact is not struck from the exact center of the face. The shaping continues PING's players-distance lineage, giving confident golfers a Tour-proven look while still delivering game-improvement stability through the set.
Each iron face is precision-milled with a groove pattern engineered for consistent spin and control from both the fairway and the rough. A durable chrome finish gives the face and body a bright, clean look that matches the rest of the i230 set. Combined with the compact profile, the face geometry supports tight, repeatable dispersion and reliable distance control shot after shot.
A more rounded leading edge than earlier i-Series irons lets the club glide through the turf rather than dig into it, so mis-hit strikes from tight lies or light rough still make clean contact with the ball. This forgiving sole design pairs with the low, elastomer-shifted center of gravity to help golfers get the ball airborne quickly and hold their line into the green. At address, the i230 keeps a clean, minimal top-line that inspires confidence without looking bulky.

These are design specifications and may vary slightly due to manufacturing tolerances. Lie angle is based on the Black dot code at standard length. Bounce values will vary slightly if a non-standard loft specification is ordered. Right- and left-handed models are available.
The i230 comes standard with the True Temper Dynamic Gold 105 steel shaft, offered in R300 (Regular, 95g) and S300 (Stiff) flex. This mid-weight, low-launch shaft suits golfers who want a penetrating ball flight and precise trajectory control through the set.
The PING Color Code Chart is a fitting tool used to determine the optimal iron specification for a golfer, based on physical measurements (height and wrist-to-floor distance) and swing dynamics. Each color on the chart represents a specific combination of club specifications, such as lie angle and shaft length, with correct grip size factored in alongside them.
Lie angle is the angle between the shaft and the ground at address, and it influences the direction the ball starts on after impact. Shaft length affects a golfer's posture and swing plane, and ultimately distance and accuracy: longer shafts generally allow more distance but can cost some control, while shorter shafts can offer more control at the expense of distance. Grip size affects comfort, control and feel: golfers with larger hands may prefer a thicker grip for better control, while players with smaller hands may prefer a thinner grip for better feedback.
Using the color code chart, golfers and fitting professionals can identify the appropriate specification for an individual swing. For example, a taller golfer with a flatter swing plane will typically require a different color code than a shorter golfer with a more upright swing.
