3 irons tie as the strongest-lofted among Miura irons: Miura PI-401, Miura PI-401 | Miura Golf - Irons and Miura PI-402, all at a 30° 7-iron.
All 34 irons with a 7-iron loft are ranked below, along with 6 more lists: weakest-lofted 7-iron, widest loft range, narrowest loft range, most upright lie, flattest lie, longest.
Every Miura iron on record, ranked against each other and never against another maker's. A brand cut compares a line with itself: it answers "the most offset iron Ping publishes", and it cannot be read as a claim that one manufacturer out-specs another.
Each figure is ranked from both ends — strongest and weakest, most and least — over the same clubs, and each list counts only the clubs that publish that figure, so the totals differ between them. Loft, lie, offset and bounce are fitting specifications — a stronger loft is a longer-carrying club of the same name, not a better one, and neither end of any list here is the good end. How this is worked out.
Who they are built for
The 37 irons by handicap band — DERIVED from published loft, offset and length by the same classifier the fitting uses, never taken from a maker's marketing copy. A club whose category publishes nothing to read keeps its own row rather than being sorted into a band nobody computed.

The published loft of the 7-iron, the row every iron spec table centres on. Lower is stronger, and a stronger loft is a longer-carrying club of the same name — not a better one, and not a longer set: the 28° 7-iron and the 34° 7-iron are different numbered clubs sold under the same number. Models publishing no 7-iron row are left off.

PING quotes putter lie from vertical rather than horizontal, so those figures are converted onto the common scale before comparison and the club’s own page still shows the number PING published.

When they launched
Model year, where the record carries one — 17 of the 37 in this cut. A model year is when a club launched, not when it was designed or when it left the shops. Each year with enough clubs behind it links to that year's own boards.
