What the differences mean
At the 7-iron, the G710 is 29.5° and the G730 is 28°, a 1.5° gap. Each degree of loft is worth roughly 3 to 4 yards of carry at the same swing speed, so the G730 should carry roughly 4 to 6 yards further with that club, on a slightly lower, shallower flight than the G710. Across the 7 clubs both sets share, the G730 averages 2.5° stronger, with the largest gap at the PW (44° vs 40°). The pitching wedges are 44° and 40°; the stronger one leaves a 10° jump to a 50° gap wedge, which matters when planning wedge gapping.
The sets are built differently: the G710 runs 4-iron to SW (9 clubs), the G730 5-iron to 56W (9 clubs).
Both are super game improvement irons, built for high handicaps, beginners and slower swing speeds. The most forgiving category — very wide soles, maximum perimeter weighting and the strongest lofts. Because they target the same golfer, the decision comes down to the specific loft, feel and shaping differences rather than who the sets are made for.
The G710 is listed as hollow body with a maraging steel face and the G730 as cavity back with a thin, heat-treated flexing face. The G710's hollow body lets the face flex more and moves mass low and outward, usually giving higher launch and more ball speed on off-centre strikes than the G730, at some cost in feel. The G710 adds tungsten weighting, which lowers the centre of gravity and raises stability on mis-hits, helping the long irons launch.
There are 4 years between these sets (2020 and 2024), more than one design generation. Over that time irons moved toward stronger lofts, thinner and faster faces, hollow and multi-material heads and wider use of tungsten, so the newer set is not simply a better version of the older one: it may launch and spin quite differently. Here the 7-iron loft moved from 29.5° to 28°.
Which should you choose?
The G730 is the stronger-lofted set — up to 4° stronger than the G710 on matching clubs. Expect longer carry per numbered iron but a flatter descent angle; gapping at the wedge end is where that shows up.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Ping G710 stronger lofted than the G730?
No. The G730 is the stronger-lofted set: its 7-iron is 28° against 29.5° for the Ping G710, 1.5° stronger and worth roughly 4 to 6 yards of extra carry.
What is the loft difference between the Ping G710 and G730?
At the 7-iron the difference is 1.5° (29.5° vs 28°). The largest gap on a shared club is 4° at the PW, and all 7 shared clubs differ.
Are the Ping G710 and G730 aimed at the same golfer?
Yes. Both are super game improvement irons, built for high handicaps, beginners and slower swing speeds. Choose on feel, looks and gapping, ideally after hitting both.
Do the Ping G710 and G730 have the same lie and length?
At the 7-iron, yes: both are 62° lie and 37 inches long.
