The Ping Eye 2 Be/Cu clubs are the most sought after, desirable clubs on the market. Perimeter weighting, square grooves(yes all clubs now have square grooves, but with spacing of grooves now illegal to produce), but with a soft feel unique to the club head material. I am now an owner of 4 sets of these clubs. One set for my home course and one for the resort club both for me, and my 16 year old son. I would suggest a bit of advice on purchasing these clubs. First, I would not suggest you look just at height and decide to purchase an orange set if you are 5 foot 6 to 9 inches in height. Play with a set of Ping Eye 2 clubs, and decide if your divot indicates that you have a need for a more or less upright set. While I have a height that would suggest an orange set, I find the black dot set to have a divot far more symmetrical, with neither the toe nor the heel digging deeper into the turf. Condition is important, and none are standard on used clubs. A photo is the only way of determining the condition of a club. Buy the very best clubs you can in the very best condition you can afford. You can't take it with you, and you will always be glad you paid more. Expect to pay in the $400-600 range for a good set of these clubs with a sand wedge. An excellent used lob wedge will cost $250-300. Pay for the better club, you will be happier. Look at the bands on the club. A black and blue banded club is one made for the US. One made for Japan will be black with green. Either is fine. You can always call Ping to determine that this is a men's club, and that the serial number is consistent with the color of the lie. An original ping grip with diamond or double diamond grips will probably mean that you have clubs that have had relatively little use in the past. I would rather see a set of clubs with original grips in poor condition but beautiful club heads and regrip them, instead of clubs with relatively poor photos not showing details but with nice grips. Ping eye 2 clubs are not rare clubs, but there are currently no better clubs, and the Be/Cu are the best of the series. Shell out the big bucks for a great set and you will not regret it. If you are not playing well with them, go ahead and get a lesson. It is not the clubs, it is your swing. Unless wear indicates I need to replace my sets, I expect I will be playing these sets for the next three decades while I can still walk and play golf. If wear on the club face indicates I need to replace them, you can expect me on EBay bidding the replace them. If they are running $3000 for a set in 2020, I will be paying that. The price you pay for these items are going to be influenced as they have by supply and demand. Expect the demand to go up, and the supply to go down.
