As a fitting conclusion to the “PING Slam” celebration, golfers today can purchase one of 35 sets ($4,990) of all four history-making putter heads, inclusive of a custom-made table-top display case for their home or office.
They will also receive a PLD Custom putter experience as part of the purchase (valued at $1,490), which includes a precision milled PLD putter built to their exact specifications and a fitting session with one of PING’s Master Putter Fitters in the PING Putting Lab or virtually.
The “PING Slam” PLD Collection will be available for purchase on pingpld.com, beginning at 2 pm ET on Tuesday, December 5.
The “PING Slam” celebration recognizes a historic achievement from 1988 when all four major championships were won with a PING putter. It had never happened before and hasn’t happened since for any putter brand. Starting at this year’s Masters, PING offered precision-milled versions of the putter models that won the four major titles in 1988 (Pal, Pal 2, Zing 2 and Anser), with 88 of each being available on Tuesday of the major event, giving collectors a rare opportunity to own a part of PING’s storied putter history. In each case, the putters sold out in less than 10 minutes.
“We’re excited to offer golfers this special opportunity to be part of the “PING Slam” celebration,” said John A. Solheim, PING’s Executive Chairman. “The detail and precision of the putters and the craftsmanship of the display makes for a stunning presentation. It’s an attention-getting, conversation-starting addition to any golfer’s home or office. On top of that, the buyer also receives their own PLD Custom putter, precision milled and custom built at our Phoenix headquarters. It’s a great way to be part of PING’s history while having access to the tour-level putter experience offered through our PLD program.”
“It’s been a lot of fun this year looking back to 1988 and celebrating our remarkable success that year at the major championships,” Solheim said. “The response of our loyal customers has been tremendous as each of the models has sold out very quickly. It’s been a great way to pay tribute to my father Karsten’s success while celebrating an accomplishment that remains unmatched.”
