How Ping Golf Was Started

January 30th, 2012 by Mike Rady | Filed in golf clubs

For a golfer, one of the most important things that he should examine is his golf club because according to experts, it is one of the main reasons why they do not hit the ball. This is the exact reason why the Ping golf club was born.

Karsten Solheim was one who invented the Ping Golf-club with different intentions. The story plot has it that Karsten was practicing golf but he couldn’t hit the ball so he started to practice up to the moment which he began to design and experiment with his personalized putter to make sure that he could play better because of it. He thought of designing his own putter with out thinking that it will be known worldwide. By 1959, his putter experiments had evolved into 1A design. While deciding on a name, he heard the sound of his putter and declared proudly to his wife, he would name the putter from its sound, so the name “ping”. During the same year, Sports Illustrated published an article in their August issue with regards to the ping golf-club dubbing it the musical putter.

This was the beginning of success for ping golf-clubs. At the moment, the Ping golf club is manufactured in Phoenix, Arizona by Karsten Manufacturing Corporation. There are above 400 patents on file for ping golf club and everyone of these designs will be innovative and original design that have been suited for each and every golfer. Below are a few within their key patents and products:

In the year 1962, the Heel-toe weighting type of ping golf club was granted a patent. This design was the one that revolutionized other modern designs and golf clubs that are manufactured in the market today. In the year 1969, another type of ping golf club was introduced which was the perimeter-weighted, investment-cast Iron. The reason for this type of ping golf club is that the perimeter weighting is able to increase the moment of inertia thus when a ball is not struck squarely on the face it makes the club more forgiving.

Another innovative movement for the ping golf club was the application of investment casting in the manufacture of the K Series Irons. This is not really a new technology in fact; the old name for it is the lost-wax process. The purpose of this type of method is to ensure precise detail and consistency to all of the parts of the ping golf club. Another type of patent for the Ping golf club is the Cushin Selective Filtering Insert. This is a patented invention which screens out and disperses the unwanted frequencies that can harmfully affect muscle, bone, and connective tissue. Through this invention, the golfer receives less vibration with greater feel on each shot.

These models are what people, particularly golfers, recognize about ping golf club. lost considered one of your ping these all so important accessories?
