Ping Europe Ltd

PING Golf is based in Phoenix, Arizona. Founded by Karsten Solheim, who was an engineer at the General Electric company. The name "PING" came from the sound that Solheim heard as the metal struck the ball. In 1959, he started making his own putters in his garage in Redwood City, California. In 1967, because of increasing demand for his putters, he resigned his job at General Electric in order to fully develop the PING company. Today, PING produces clubs in every equipment category: drivers, fairway woods, hybrids, irons and putters.
