► In this video, Joel Tadman tests the new Ping G425 irons both on the launch monitor and golf course to see how the performance has changed from the two previous models, the G410 and G400. By the end of this video, you will have a clear understanding as to how the performance has evolved and whether the G425 irons are worth upgrading to.

I really dont understand why things like this surprise people, their is literally only so much you can do with a piece of metal on the end of a stick, ping are good club makers but to see a difference you really need to put a ping zing against a modern incarnation, a 6 iron now is not a 6 iron from 20 years ago, lofts are stronger, faces arw thinner, its just all companies driving their economy saying something a year newer is literally going to hit the ball for you, its BS
Just picked up a mint used set of 410's. I do think the 425's look classier but the difference in performance was not enough to make me go for them over the 410's, saved some cash in the process!! What has convinced me to go for these over other brands is the ability to hold a green as shown in many of the reviews I've watched. I'm hoping they still retain the Ping durability reputation as I'm not planning on changing again for a while!
If they're all pretty much the same performance wise, I guess the deciding vote for me would be on looks. I like the look of the G425 the best. Just a cleaner, classier look.
Well you're man spoke more about g425 and g410 ??? What happened to the overall view of all three clubs lol hello you tested g400 to fella 🙄 basically g400 are really same as the rest …… So save you're money keep ya g400 irons 👍🏻
Do any of these clubs have the same problem as the Gmax and Gseries? I love my Ping Gmax iron set, very forgiving but the weight on my 4 iron fell out and I guess that’s a common occurrence with the max and series
Glad to see you being so straight up and honesty about the clubs. A lot of reviews go on like the 425 is markedly better than the 410 and it seems to be splitting hairs. I just bought some new 410s in the stiff steel AWT shaft I couldn't even get G425s as none are available in leftys anyhow. I do like the look of both irons but for the marginal difference I have a hard time justifying the 25% higher price.
The simple answer basically is unless you’re a top golfer, you probably won’t recognise any difference whatsoever
I’m not much on the loudness of them however they are solid iron I really like mine , just bought them getting back into golf. However a real solid club has good spin rate an holds greens really good even Bermuda greens , the smaller too line is a plus for me that being said the sound of these clubs are not as loud when you take some ground with them. Guess next step for me would be blades maybe blueprints forge. Nice video on these clubs.
Looking for a good second hand set of G400s graphite.
I am keeping my G400 with Nippon tour 105 stiff shafts.
If you’re upgrading then the only one worth looking at is the 425, arccos is a massive leap forward. The 410 look like a club for guys under 25 only!
Had the g400's for a year now. Love them. Ball sticks to every green, that i get lucky and hit. Bought them with the alta graphite regular flex. Should I go with the steel shafts?.. hit my 7 about 155.
Keeping my G410 irons was going to wait for the new G425 but I prefer the look of the G410
Feet too wide…
What about against the G710
I can see a noticeable difference between the blade length of the G400 & G410 compared to the G425. Prior generations were too long & were off putting to me. I like the more compact look.
Should have thrown the G710 into the mix!
I've found that previous versions of the PING G range of Irons looked too "chunky", but the latest G425 versions look as though they are a little bit smaller and as a result are visually more appealing.
Hard to tell in the video but it looks like the 425 head isn't as bulky as the 400.
Was waiting for 425’s to come out to see tests of them. Glad I did; ordered a used set of 400’s.
G400's are staying in the bag
Very rare to get an unbiased opinion now- reviewers business get funds/free clubs from manufacturers or if don't give positive reviews then dont get clubs to review. G400 to G425 differences are marginal- get the cheaper ones.
I would worry about hitting them left with all that offset.
