s159 Wedges
With the addition of two grinds and new loft offerings, the s159 wedges represent PING’s most versatile wedge line to date, significantly advancing wedge performance and expanding fitting options. Extensive testing with PING tour players helped create wedges that will appeal to golfers of all abilities.
The 8620 carbon steel head is cast to an eye-pleasing shape with a more-square lead edge, especially beneficial on full shots. An elastomer insert behind the face contributes to the soft and responsive feel.
At address, the compact head features an improved hosel transition with constant offset that blends seamlessly into the new Blueprint S and T irons.
Wheel-cut grooves are precision-milled to varying dimensions, depending on loft. The 54-to-62-degree options feature more tightly spaced MicroMax grooves. The 46-to-52-degree wedges have a 20-degree sidewall, milled to maximise groove volume for greater control on full shots.
In combination with the friction-adding face blast, the s159 wedges deliver the launch and spin control to play score-lowering wedge shots from every distance.

New “H” or Half-Moon Grind: A shot-saving option for players with steeper angles of attack who like to manipulate the handle and play with versatility. It performs best in softer conditions. Available in 54°, 56°, 58°, 60°
New “B” Grind: For a shallow angle of attack and neutral face delivery. Low-bounce design sits low on the turf on square face shots, providing forgiveness via the sole width to deliver score-lowering performance in firmer conditions. Available in 58°, 60°
“T” Grind: PING’s most versatile option allows players to manipulate the face for shot-making precision around the greens. Ideal for medium to firm turf conditions. PING have added a 62-degree at the request of their tour pros for more versatility. Available in 58°, 60°, 62° (new)
“W” Grind: Maximum forgiveness through the turf. Best fits a steep angle of attack who might also have a lot of handle lean and a player who prefers the look of a specialty wedge but relies on a little more forgiveness in their scoring clubs. Available in 54°, 56°, 58°, 60°
“E” or Eye2 Grind: Continues to be the ultimate bunker club, carrying on a 40-year tradition of helping golfers get up and down from the sand. It plays with relatively low bounce on square or slightly open face shots. Available in 54°, 56°, 58°, 60°
“S” Grind: Fits a wide variety of conditions and techniques. Designed with ample bounce in the mid-section to play full shots and provides greenside versatility due to heel/trail edge relief. New 48-degree option helps in gapping. Available in 46°, 48° (new), 50°, 52°, 54°, 56°, 58°, 60°
