About the Ping Zing
The Zing replaced the Eye 2 as Ping's mainstream game-improvement iron and moved the line about 1.5 degrees stronger through the middle of the set — the 7-iron went from 36 degrees in the Eye 2 to 34.5 degrees here. Ping did not publish per-club offset or bounce figures for the Zing, so those columns are omitted rather than guessed. Ping's colour-code (dot) system sets lie angle relative to standard: gold 4 flat, brown 3 flat, orange 2 flat, red 1 flat, BLACK standard, blue 1 upright, green 2 upright, white 3 upright, silver 4 upright, maroon 5 upright. The lies below are the BLACK (standard) lies.

Finding a used set
The Ping Zing is no longer in production, so the used market is the only source. Search eBay, 2nd Swing, Golf Avenue and the PGA Tour Superstore trade-in listings, and check the loft and lie against the chart above before buying — sets this age have often been bent from standard.

- Note: the 9-iron lie of 65.0 is more upright than the 47-degree pitching wedge's 64.5, which breaks the otherwise monotonic progression. This is verified as exactly what Ping published, in every archived capture of the chart, and is reproduced here rather than smoothed. The Zing 2's revised chart lists these two the other way round (64.5 then 65.0).
- Note: Ping did not publish per-club offset or bounce for this model; those keys are omitted.
- Note: the Zing lob wedge is listed at 57.0 degrees, 4 degrees weaker than the 61.0-degree lob wedge in the otherwise near-identical Zing 2 chart. The April 2004 capture of this page listed both an LS and an LW, each at 57.0; Ping's later revision deleted the LS row and left the LW at 57.0. The Zing 2 chart keeps both, at 57.0 and 61.0. Ping never published 61.0 for the Zing, so 57.0 is reproduced here as published.
- Note: year_discontinued is taken as the year the successor model was introduced, per the Ping model chronology.
